Junk DNA Can Revive and Cause Disease, Study Finds
Geneticists report they have seen a dead gene come back to life and cause a common form of muscular dystrophy.
Interesting early report.
Muscular dystrophy is not a problem for me.
I doubt this is headed toward a cure. It seems more at elimination.
There are those who would call it interfering with the will of God.
Which one?

Hand-Pulled Chinese Noodles
“Hand-Pulled Chinese Noodles - http://nyti.ms/hr5Iid 9 ”
This is mostly fluff. I am willing to learn these skills but I bought a Pasta machine fifteen years ago. I wish she had hit the broths harder. The noodles are all touch. interesting that they go alcoline
with the water. I will have to figure that out. Sodium carbonate, I think. (Washing Soda)

We Have Met the Enemy and He Is PowerPoint
“Indictment against powerpoint: We Have Met the Enemy and He Is PowerPoint - http://nyti.ms/c8GATa #visualization #powerpoint”
Yes. Try openoffice impress.
Really it is the over emphasis on graphic presentation that is the problem. If the slide cannot be understood with a glance and a few words it needs to be reworked. Either use simpler pictures or fewer words. Complex ideas can and must be broken into comprehensible bits and presented as linear progressions of those bits. Each decision point needs its own frame showing consequences.
The presentation is a short story. it has a beginning, a middle, and an end. It is built around a plot. Keep the plot simple.

Senators Don’t Ask, Don’t Debate
“Gail Collins op-ed on Senators Don’t Ask, Don’t Debate - http://nyti.ms/bS7lAy”
"Who is right?
People, it makes no difference. Never pay attention to procedural debates. They will make you crazy. It’s like arbitrating a border agreement between two countries whose representatives keep fighting about who did what at the Battle of the 10 Skulls in 1284."

The Music-Copyright Enforcers
“The Music-Copyright Enforcers - http://nyti.ms/bwoX8M someone must be feeling pretty special with the name-check. :)”
Like the bar owners with a radio, I am ambivalent. The Musicians need to get paid. The costs of publication are way down. The enforcers are a lot like bankers.
