UC San Diego bioengineers have created the first stable, fast and programmable genetic clock that reliably keeps time by the blinking of fluorescent proteins inside E. coli cells. The clock’s blink rate changes when the temperature, energy source or other environmental conditions change, a fact that could lead to new kinds of sensors that convey information about the environment through the blinking rate.
The researchers published their synthetic biology advance in the journal Nature on 29 October, 2008.

#43 GMO's are organisms that have been genetically engineered to have a specific outcome. Some tomatoes are genetically altered to grow bigger and last longer.
One if the species which is both a migrant and native to Indian Subcontinent! This bird is native in the lower Himalayan region of India and migrates from central Asia to South west parts (Goa, Karnataka & Kerala) during winters. It is also called as vagrant as at times this bird is spotted way beyond it's normal territory. Vagrancy could be due to genetic behavior or climatic conditions, however there is no conclusive theory or evidence which understands vagrancy!

My sister, Marilyn on the right and our genetic cousin Carol Lillevang after a recent lunch in California. We learned we were cousins through my mother's lineage after DNA testing with ancestry.com. We have not yet learned who the common relative was or where he/she lived. Fascinating stuff this DNA genealogy.

thousands of years in the making. genetically engineered by the creator of the universe. out of the mold breaks the beginning of the future. cast out of the sub-elements that compose the planets and the stars. strong as titanium, rare as i, the realization of your fantasies worst nightmare. out of the darkness is the synthesis of synergy and independence. from never to forever comes me. am i your desire? am i your truth? am i your daydream? am i your climax? am i what you want to have or be or be blessed enough to behold, and with the right combination of luck and skill maybe even hold? am i your pasts purpose and the goal of your future? the writings on the wall bytch!

Geographic genetic variation in the Amphiumidae.
Bayesian phylograms of the mitochondrial genes Cytb and 16 s (left) and the nuclear gene Rag1 (right). Numbers subtending the major nodes are Bayesian posterior probabilities to the left of the slash and maximum parsimony bootstrap values to the right. The three major clades, which primarily correspond to the recognized species, are indicated on the phylograms and maps to the right with colored lines: A. pholeter (blue), A. means (red), and A. tridactylum (green). Two putative “A. tridactylum” that are closely related to some A. means are highlighted on the phylogenies with green triangles.
Throughout history, women have always been known for their love of chocolate but why is this? Well, there are several theories and this article will help you to understand why it seems that some women can’t resist a little bit chocolate, especially when they are feeling low.
Reason Number one: Serotonin
The main reason why so many women feel the need for some chocolate is due to their serotonin levels. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that makes us feel relaxed and happy, however, in some women serotonin is low and this can make them crave chocolate. For other women, the serotonin levels fall when there are changes in their hormones throughout the monthly cycle and this is where those monthly chocolate cravings can come from.
However, there are some other theories as to why women seem like chocolate so much.
Reason Number Two: Dopamine and phenylethylamine
Eating chocolate is seen as an extremely pleasurable experience and some researchers say that the feeling that chocolate gives us is just like the feeling a woman gets when she is in love.
When chocolate is eaten, the body releases dopamine. Dopamine is the chemical that the brain releases when we have feelings of pleasure, and this chemical is strongly associated with the feeling a woman gets when she is in love.
There is also a suggestion that chocolate encourages the release of a neurotransmitter called phenylethylamine. As well as causing changes to the blood pressure and blood sugar, phenylethylamine can lift the mood and ease feelings of depression. Moreover, phenylethylamine is often referred to as the “love drug” as it can quicken the pulse and leave us feeling the same way that we do when we are in love.
Reason Number Three:
Another suggestion is that some of us are genetically programmed to love chocolate and this is the reason that some women have a sweet tooth and crave chocolate more than others.
Conclusion
If you are a woman that loves chocolate a little too much then you shouldn’t be too concerned about it as chocolate isn’t just known for its calories and sugar; it is also known to be beneficial to the health of the heart, and for this reason women, and men, should feel free to indulge occasionally.
