Sex-linked genes are expressed more often in males than in females, because males lack a homologous X-pair, and therefore recessive or sex-linked genes are expressed more often in males than in women. Women have about the same chance of carring, but not phenotypically expressing, the sex-linked genes.
The weird thing in those screenshots is that there is no delete button in Gmail. either google thinks their spam filter is too good, or that they think 1Gb is enough to store all the spams.lol
Ya, nuclear safty harzards can be devasting---nuclear radiation, random mutations, genetic diseaes, that's right. But the probability of such failures are so low compared to other power plants, such as those that use oil, fossil fuel, or natural gas. There were only 3, yes three, nuclear plant failures. One was very very minor. One was Three Miles Island, the last, notorious one, was Chernobyl.
At Three Miles Island, after the failure, they detected about.01% of radiation you would get if you get a normal X-Ray. That's way higher that if you would live near any other types of power plants. Under normal operations, nuclear power plants are far safer than conventional power plants. Conventional power plants can release a lot of CO2, and a failure can be devastating to environmental health. In addition, conventional power plants have few rules to follow. Conventional power plants put out green house gases that contribute to global warming. They can cause water/air pollution.
So what is bad about nuclear power plants? Their cost of assembling, operating and disassembling. It costs a LOT to build a powerplant. The builders have to use stronger well-consealed buildinds, emergency components. Because there is such paranoia about these plants, they have to be built away from urban areas, adding the cost of delivring that electricity to those who actually use it. and there is nuclear waste (more about it later..) and those expensive buildings last only 30 years due to nuclear fission. These buildings have to be torn down, or decommisioned, properly (not just bulldoze it) and disposed proper as they are radioactive wastes. Decommisioning alone can cost more than the construction. The wastes from opearting and decommisioning have to be stored somehwhere. Again, the paranoia forces them to put the waste in inhabitited areas. In U.S, most wastes are put in double-layer huge steal tanks,and sank in lakes/seas or buried undergounrd. There is a program with this. Even though they are thick double-sealed walls, there is still a chance for leaking into water or undergrond water. There has to be periodic checks. There, nuclear power...it's just not econmically feasible.
Worse, back in the days of Soviet Russia, they desperately dumped the wastes into 3 seas in arctic ocean (cant remember name). Those seas are completely contaminated and lifeless.
There, the bad thing is not the danger, because there is worse danger from other power plants, than nuclear power plant. Hack, under normal operations, there is mich much more probability of you dying from other conventioanl plants, smoking, or even car accident..than nuclear plants...

I have seen peers in my classes that seem to persume Internet as equivalent to education, or true information. In presentations, where multiple groups work on same topics, I have seen most students just plagarizing off the Internet sites, without considering the validity of the information. Sure, encyclopedias can be used in such ways, but they are more valid,throughly reviewed, well written -- all of the qualities which most Internet sources lack. I think today's students need to know that Internet isn't a way to achieve understanding and critical thinking, it is just a tool.

This is actually wrong...except spyware part. Speedbit's Download Accelerator Plus actually gets the files faster by using multiple simultaneous connections. It may seem odd, or non-sense, to think that the data can goes "faster" than it normally does. But the software works, and contains no spyware --- if you BUY it.
I hate to say this but I think Jackson should try another theme. Sure Lord of the Rings were off the hook, but there is a time when the audience wants a different theme. The audience is always looking for new stuff -- you cant just feed some stuff and expect it to sell.
Many people think the Chernobyl area is just like a desert. It's true, there are no people, but there ARE animals. Researches have found rats living there. When they tested those rats, which are living healthily, the scientists found that DNA of rats changed as fast as it had in last 20 million years. That's right, the radiation caused mutations (or evolution) in 20 years, at rate equal to 20 million years.
The rats aren't mutilated or anything, they just happen to adapt.

Popular vote for every single issue in a nation is just too much of a burden...so people elect representatives and they decide.
Unfortunately, both versions lead to mob rule.

I get ~113 frames per second...double the "official" number.
I also wonder what the FPS depends more on..CPU, to interpret the PHP, or graphic card, to render textures...hum..
porn in php. woot!

maybe they provide an ethernet port near every student desk?

are there any rocket scientists that figure out if there are too many links in a paragraph?

You mean Microsoft releases patches to create more problems, right?
I should to be PAID to use Windows.
