    Scientists create cells like human embryonic stem cells without using embryos

    in Tongue-Tied Lightning

    Posted

    Actually heard a short debate on this on NPR last night.

    Both sides were in agreement that it was an exciting breakthrough and would be preferable to using embryonic cells. But the scientific side offered a caveat that.. it would be IF the non-embryonic cells were as effective as the embryonic ones.

     

    The pro-life side refused to acknowledge that possibility and simply went on ahead with the fact that the current research has been promising.

     

    So they agreed, but in totally different ways.

     

    Odd.

    Paul Weller fans?

    Wild Wood is my favorite.

    In fact, that period is just about the only period that I listen to from his solo career.

    There is also an out-of-print B-Sides collection from those sessions called More Wood that is just about as good as the proper album.

     

    So yeah, start with Wild Wood.

    "Acoustic Guitar" by The Magnetic Fields

     

    Acoustic Guitar,

    I'm gonna make you a star,

    Get your picture all over the world

     

    Acoustic Guitar,

    You can have your own car,

    Just bring me back my girl

     

    She always loved the sound of your strum

    You made her think maybe I wasn't so dumb

    She tends to faint at the sound of a drum

    Cuz she's folk so play and maybe she'll come

     

    Acoustic Gutiar, how lovely you are

    With your inlays of mother of pearl

    Be a good guitar and you could go far

    Just bring me back my girl

     

    She always said that you were the one

    That could make her move her cute little bum

    You understand where she's coming from

    Which I obviously don't, or she wouldn't be gone

     

    Acoustic guitar, if you think I play hard

    Well you could have belonged to Steve Earle

    Or Charo OR GWAR, I could sell you tomorrow

     

    So bring me back my girl

    You'd better bring me back my girl
