Viruses can't live on their own - they have to have a host - so I guess that's what you mean when you say they aren't "life" but they can certainly mutate. A mistake during replication introduces a...

I live in Rice Military and really like it! Right in the middle of everything. Live in a townhouse - 3 floors and about 2100 square feet. Moved in when it was new 3 years ago. There are lots of...
I am with you on Nneka. I WISH she'd come to Tech. I've seen her play a number of times and she's getting lots of press on the AAU and USA squad this summer.
Kelsey Bone is a good one, too. ...
Remember the Titans - Gary Bertier is lying in the hospital bed listening to the championship game on the radio. When they finally win, he just lays his head back and outstretches his arms. Gets me...
Birth control pills - another one of those things that there wasn't 20 year data for when women started taking it. Now it's so very common.
I'm all for the HPV vaccine. And I think it's great...
One of the girls on the list is Kelsey Bone from Dulles High School in Sugarland. She's an old school Venus Lacy/Erica Westbrooks built 5. She's 6-4 and a sophomore. She improved a LOT from the...
Oh and more...
If you all could have seen all of the skits, songs and dances that the Techsters would do for the campers in the basement of Harper every night after the games were over. We had...
Going to a Sears in the Bronx to get Spoon's autograph decked out in as much Tech gear as my college roommate and I could find in her apartment. Only to be told by the security guard that we...
I'm not so sure about the coaching but I'll continue to give it the benefit of the doubt. I was at the game as well - drove up from Houston. The coaches coach by committe - at a time out they...
Inside the loop
I go to College Station every week for work and always stay at the Hampton Inn and Suites right on the highway. Very new and clean. Not sure if they have rooms this weekend though. The older...
Here's an article from the Boston Globe citing some of the research going on elsewhere and explaining why the same research can't happen in the US. It's from 2004 but still very relevant:
...
I can only say that trust me as a research scientist working under a government grant, our government is wanting to be on the cutting edge. As far as medical research, this is ONE area of medical...
Oh and about scientists leaving - yes, there are scientists that have gone to other countries to have more freedom in their research when it comes to stem cells. A discovery anywhere is great but...
Here's my 2 cents. I've worked in the lab doing medical research getting my masters and have spent the last 7 years working for one of the world's largest scientific reagent suppliers. First of all,...
It got that I was Laverne from Laverne and Shirley but missed Tootie from the Facts of Life. So easily amused!:)
I saw it yesterday and thought it was great! If you're in a Starbucks (they're somehow a part of the movie), you'll have spelling bee words on your cup. I've even seen a table reserved for the...
Thanks for the link. I think we can do more than just having a contact though! Actually having events would be nice! And with the football game at A&M this fall, there is a great opportunity for...
Someone posted asking if there was a local alumni chapter and it reminded me that I was meaning to ask something similar.
Other universities have local alumni chapters but as far as I know, we...
And watch Kristy Toliver (Maryland's PG) talk to the refs. She is smooth. Doesn't hurt to have an NBA ref dad. :)
Speaking of 0.7 seconds...that clip/game has yet to make it on the top 25 countdown for the 25th anniversary of the women's tournament. They'll reveal the number ONE moment during tomorrow night's...
I'm married to a Maryland alum so we'll be rooting for the Terps. My Fear the Turtle shirt is ready to go.
I can't cheer for North Carolina because my heart was ripped out as I sat in the...
Three weeks is plenty of time! You need Tivo or DVR to help you through the commercials though. :)
Well at least Lady Techster fans are aware that we're always going to get a lower seed than what we'd expect. I used to get so fired up and now I just nod, smile and try to figure out how I'm going...
Nancy named Tasha the most underrated player in the San Antonio regional. So somebody has noticed!
