• WELL, LOOKS LIKE IT’S TIME TO KICK THE BOY SCOUTS TO THE CURB

  
  KICKIN' AND SCREAMIN'........... — Authority: 438
  I guess I am too old fashioned but when groups like Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts start coddling homosexual groups then I think it’s time to take your kids out.     The Boy Scouts of America has been consistently criticized for taking stances that critics see as anti-gay. But reports that the organization ...

• Early Neandertals used red ochre

  
  Dienekes Anthropology Blog — Authority: 457
  I have never quite understood the fascination of archaeologists with red ochre. As far as I can tell, this fascination stems from the fact that it is a pigment that survives in time, and had been used by the earliest artists during the Upper Paleolithic. By extrapolation, its presence in earlier contexts has been ...

  KICKIN' AND SCREAMIN'........... — Authority: 438
  I hope this family sues not just the school district but the school superintendent…..for everything they have. A 15-year-old Wisconsin boy who wrote an op-ed opposing gay adoptions was censored, threatened with suspension and called ignorant by the superintendent of the Shawano School District, according to an ...

• Archaic DNA data mining for dummies

  
  Dienekes Anthropology Blog — Authority: 457
  I have repeatedly stressed how full genome sequencing will allow us to detect archaic DNA in modern humans, so I thought of writing a simple post where I lay out the rationale behind my conviction. The age of the microarray Microarrays test for a few 10 5 variants in the human genome. Conceptually, we can ...

• Introgression of archaic haplotype at OAS1 in Melanesians (Mendez et al. 2012)

  
  Dienekes Anthropology Blog — Authority: 457
  It seems that Michael Hammer was good on his promise that in 2012 "This year, we should be able to confirm what we found and go way beyond that."  In a new paper, conclusive evidence is presented about introgression of an archaic sequence into Melanesian populations. The argument is as follows: Melanesians are ...

  Place your non-monetary, totally legal bets : Sen. Jim Kastama of Puyallup has scheduled a press conference for Thursday to declare his position. Supporters of the bill are just two votes shy in the Senate, and Kastama is 1 of a half-dozen lawmakers who remain uncommitted. Heres the tricky part: Kastama is a ...

• A Woman Working for St. James Cathedral Grabbed My Hand and Tried to Steal My Pen to Make Me Stop Writing About the Seattle Churchs Campaign to Ban Marriage Equality

  
  The Stranger, Seattle's Only Newspaper: Slog — Authority: 142
  St James Cathedral: "All are welcome." Call me naive. But I had pretty warm feelings toward Seattles progressive Catholics . From baptism until my early-teens, I attended St. Therese Parish every Sunday, even taking my first Communion there—real fresh baked bread, not those godawful wafers—and I attended the ...

• Duma is Born!

  
  Ralphies Blog! — Authority: 129
  He decided to make a second batch, in my image this time, because he couldn´t stand to create them completely bald. The second batch he called Dummies or scientifically Homo Erectibus Estupidicus. This was, of course, because the wisdom had been lost. He stuck to four shades: pale, red, black and yellow, with more or ...

  Human Mathematics — Authority: 113
  I hope I can say this in a way that makes sense. One kind of mathematical symbology your eyes eventually get used to is the “ Σ um over all i ndividuals” concept: Yes, at first it’s painful, but eventually it looks no more confusing than the oddly-bent Phoenician-alphabet letters that make up English ...

  The Impudent Observer - Global Liberal Issues — Authority: 428
  It is quite clear that Newt Gingrich and his sister are not either brothers or sisters under the beauty of the human spirit. Candice was born years after her famous brother which may account for the lack of pomposity and bullshit in her thinking. It is also quite clear why big brother simply does not wish to ...

  What a shame that James "I live to play iconic gay guys" Franco already portrayed James Dean in a sanitized (made-for-TV) movie.
