Human Genome T-Shirt

Wear your geek on your sleeve with this Human Genome T-Shirt, offered by the AAAS (HT BMF).

It’s still unverified, but it’s quite possible those numbnut frakwit egg-sucking weetarded fools, the Earth Liberation Front (ELF) is Behind the Arson of Green Homes in Seattle. If true, then these morons are not only hurting their cause, but DESTROYING THE ENVIRONMENT TOO thanks to the pollution from the arson and the pollution that will be generated rebuilding the homes, which I’m sure are insured. Stupid ineffectual jackass buttheaded dingbats.

Speaking of stupid ineffectual jackass buttheaded dingbats, the “Global Warming Is Not a Crisis” Conference has kicked off, featuring lots of discredited AGW skeptics… and no one cares.

Shucks. The flowing formations on Mars were caused by a dry landslide, sorry Charlie, no evidence for recently flowing water on the red planet.

Wired’s got their Top 10 Amazing Chemistry Videos, some I’ve posted, others I planned to post, but no longer since I’ve been scooped… actually, I’ll just wait until everyone’s forgotten them and then post ‘em.

Better yet, check out the National Wildlife Federation’s Photo Contest awwwwwwwesome.

Alternative to the TED, it’s the BIL Conference, it’s TED with out the pretentiousness.

‘Long-life’ genes found in 100-year-old humans, but only short women have them.

Lost your keys? Just hit Rewind, Cyber Goggles record your environment.

A tattoo cell phone that’s powered by blood, simultaneously creepy and envy-inducing (HT Clint)

The Bil and TED conference you say? No Way! If the discussions center on time travel and the merits of the phone booth vs. the cellphone, I’m going to start learning the guitar.

Wow. I can’t believe I missed that connection. I was baffled by the “BIL” name. Thanks for clearing that up.
