Breast Enhancement Pills - Do They Work?
According to American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery (ASAPS) statistics, last year, 280,401 breast augmentation surgeries were performed in the US. The FDA’s Analysis of the Study of Mentor Saline Breast Implants goes on to report that as a result of their surgeries, forty-three percent of these augmentation patients experienced at least one complication within three years. The most frequent complaints included wrinkling, asymmetry, sagging or scarring of the breast, nipple changes and the need for additional surgery. How do breast enhancement supplements work? In many cases th ...

Lower cost of animal cloning could spur 'untapped market'
David Cheng says his deceased cat Shadow was part of his family -- like my brother or my son.
Cloning In The Animal Kingdom
The New Scientist is carrying an interesting article on cloning in nature. From the article: The ant Wasmannia Auropunctata, which is native to Central and South America but has spread into the US and beyond, has opted for a unique stand-off in the battle of the sexes. Both queens and males reproduce by making genetically identical copies of themselves - so males and females seem to have entirely separate gene pools.
Pushing back the expansion of introns in animal genomes.
Publication Date: 2005 Dec 29 PMID: 16377558Authors: Kumar, S. - Hedges, S. B.Journal: CellIn a recent paper in Science, surveyed the position of introns in 30 genes of a marine annelid and showed that over 60% of the introns occupy positions identical to those in human homologs. In contrast, both human and marine annelid genes share only 30% of their introns with other invertebrates. These observations suggest that the common ancestor of most animal phyla had intron-rich genes and reinforce the notion that introns proliferated early in the evolutionary history of eukaryotes.
Demise of passenger pigeon linked to Lyme disease
Traditionally, the passenger pigeon has been held as one of the more beloved animal species to fall prey to humankind's often relentless expansion into and disregard for the natural world and its creatures. Once abundant, the bird experienced a rapid decline in the late 1800s, due almost entirely to rampant hunting, and the last passenger pigeon died in 1914. In light of new findings however, this image of a naturally plentiful species laid to waste by man is now being tested. Evidence collected over the past few years from a significant number of Native American archeological sites is beginning to upset long-accepted beliefs about one of the most famous extinct species in modern history.

Heredity Is Not Destiny: Do Health and Weight Problems Run in Your Family? It May Be Habits, Not Ge
I grew up as an unathletic kid. My mother was unathletic, so she just assumed I was too. You see, our family has weak ankles and no coordination. It wasn't until I was an adult that I realized that all this was a lie. I wasn't unathletic - I just hated team sports. I discovered I actually had a flair for dance, which takes quite a bit of athleticism and coordination. Weak ankles? Of course they're weak if you don't do anything to build up their strength. A lot of the physical deficiencies that I thought I'd inherited were really born out of laziness and blind acceptance - those were the real d ...

Can Motherhood Make You Smarter?
Copyright 2005 Mary Desaulniers
It was not too long ago that the I.Q. test was a routinely administered exercise in elementary and secondary schools. At that time (late seventies and early eighties), schools placed great faith in these magic numbers. Flag those above 125 and those below 90, teachers were told. And we did, dutifully assigning enrichment or remedial programs accordingly.
Those were the years when we worked within a narrow understanding of the brain’s potential. Content dictated everything from test scores to curriculum because the model of the brain we worked from ...
