Lindsay asserts that swearing is a fascinating philosophical topic.
Amanda debunks the old tired counter-arguments.
And many, many comments on all three threads will keep you busy for a while. Mind you, considering the topic, the language in those posts is NOT safe for work (or your work may not be safe for it, in which case you should quit).
clock | December 3, 2006Sandra Porter is having fun collecting all the new-fangled biological subdisciplines that end with "-omics". The final product of each such project also has a name, ending with "-ome".
You have all heard of the Genome (complete sequence of all the DNA of an organism) and the Genomics (the effort to obtain such a sequence), but there are many more, just look at this exhaustive list! In my written prelims back in 1999, I suggested that sooner or later there will be an organismome...until someone whispers that the term "physiology" already exists.

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a sleep related breathing disorder that causes your body to stop breathing during sleep, can disturb your sleep numerous times on any given night. As a result, you may experience daytime sleepiness. Daytime sleepiness brought on by OSA may put you more at risk for cardiovascular problems, according to a study published in the December 1st issue of the journal SLEEP.

clock | December 3, 2006At least once a week on this blog I get down and dirty into some aspect of chronobiology that can get quite technical and requires the use of terminology which, unless you have read my blog in great detail every day since inception or are a chronobiologist yourself, you will not understand. Now I have discovered a searchable Dictionary of Circadian Physiology (compiled by Dr.Roberto Reffinetti) that you can consult for a quick refresher. Do you think it would be useful to put a link to it on the sidebar so it is always accessible?

Thank you all for suggestions so far. I have updated the previous posts a couple of times already and now have a backlog so will have to update them all soon again.
