Just wanted to share that my first first-author paper is now online! In the journal Stem Cells and Development, here’s my paper on “Roles of Integrins in Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Growth on Matrigel and Vitronectin.”
Hey, that sorta rhymes!
Anyway, Jenny read “Public Enemies” a book about John Dillinger, Baby
Face Nelson, the Barkers, Bonnie and Clyde, and all those other 1930s
outlaws. And when she was telling me that Nelson was shot a
ridiculous number of times by high-calibre sub-machine guns, and then
twice in the legs with buckshot, before shooting an FBI agent right
between the eyes from across the road, then got away and lived for two
days, I thought, “Hmmmm, endure pain, 80+, handguns, 80+.” (continued)
Okay, I know that it is ShortSpeedFreak’s job to post movie reviews,
but after watching Hero last night I felt compelled to post one for all
of you to read. Most of you know me as being a picky film (not
movie) watcher and critic, and so you know that it is rare when I say
that a movie is excellent. It is also hard for a movie to make it
to Stephen’s to 10, but Hero has managed to do both. (continued)

For the next few days, I’m going to be up in the San Francisco and Santa Cruz region, visiting my spunky sister, Erica, my wonderful cousins, Jason and Shari, and my long-time friends, Laika and Khirsath. If you have a message for any of them, I’ll gladly relay it along… when I get a chance to read these boards, and who knows when that may be. (But knowing my nerdiness, probably not too long). Have a few great days, all! (continued)
Over the last few days, I’ve received a lot of new roleplaying games in the mail…. Specifically, the new incarnations of both the World of Darkness, and of GURPS. Let me just say, GURPS 4th edition is beautiful. Not only is the book a wonderful full-color hardback, but the rules changes are excellent, and it’s so clean and efficient. The new World of Darkness is certainly cleaned up (and it needed it!), but unsurprising beyond the clean-up.
So to celebrate, here’s myself statted up in both GURPS 4th, and World of Darkness 2.0: (continued)
So I got home last night turned on my computer and try to access my back up hard drive. My computers response was the E:\ is not formatted woudl you like to format it now.
So, I’m turning 21 next Saturday and I’m still really not sure what to do… any ideas? Stories? (No, I’m not going to get wasted…)
So there are a lot of Civ3′ers in our little circle. I was
wondering what changes people think should be made? I’m thinking
of making a scenario including a bunch of changes, but I bet I’m
missing something and would like y’all’s input. (continued)

Just read a fascinating (if lengthy) essay on disruptive technology and the future of scientific publishing. Well worth the read!
Just wanted to share Mint.com’s Visual Guide to Deflation, which is quite explanatory.
Hey all Paradoxdruid readers! I recently started up a blog on stem cells that I’d love you all to take a look at: http://www.allthingsstemcell.com/
I participated in another Barely literate book review podcast, this time on Nicholson Baker’s “The Fermata”. Give it a listen!

Okay, I’ll admit that it’s entirely possible that I am the last person to learn about this website*, but it’s really addictive.
