Gaahh! Out of touch and out of luck...I'll be out of town that day, darn it! This seems to happen every year, which may be good, since I haven't played my whistle in QUITE a while! I'm sure it will be fun.

I know how to prepare plasmids by cesium chloride gradient.
I can also isolate DNA from a gel with dialysis tubing.
Oh yeah, and I can read the bands on Drosophila salivary gland chromosomes.

I've always flushed them, figuring that if they had been taken as directed, that's where they would have ended up eventually anyways. But, maybe that's not the thing to do anymore. Hmmm...

It may be an Eastern coyote. They are bigger than Western coyote.

This bun is cool, and the advantage of adopting from a shelter is that we could pick one that would be compatible with our kids and who is already litterbox trained! We have had not a single problem with the litterbox issue, and minor chewing has been pretty much taken care of by covering the electr...

We welcome "Pete the Bunny" who we adopted from a rabbit rescue in Rhode Island! He and three other rabbits were found hopping around a Target parking lot when they were rescued. All four have been adopted, including our Pete, who is proceeding to take over the house... http://www.petfinde...

As far as bread machines: We use them for kneading and first rise only, then do second rise and then bake in the oven. A bread machine can turn out excellent dough!! But the secret lies in the quality of the flour (King Arthur bread flour is the best), the quality of the dough, and what you do durin...

Gaah! Don't tell me you're going to do it while I'm on vacation this time! However, since I haven't touched my whistle since the last time we met, that might not be such a bad thing. I've been dulcimating more than whistling (mostly because the community is more accessible for me), and even that is ...

OK.... So things were going pretty good, the scarf was lengthening nicely. Got a few feet into it. Then somehow I magically increased it by about 10 stitches over the course of about 6 inches in length. How the heck did that happen?!?!?! I am now decreasing it by about 10 stitches over about 3 inche...

some frozen blackeyed peas (can't get fresh around here!) You could buy some dried ones and plant them. I'm not sure we have the weather for 'em. They take 90-100 days to mature, and I have had no success with pumpkins with that maturation time. (also too short a growing season for okra, my all tim...
