I like the first one as well

can someone present a practical application for imaginary numbers?

"Here are some arguments against this process and widely morally acceptable processes that work against reasons why somatic cell nuclear transfer is wrong:" Alright, now, since you used "some arguments" instead of 'the arguments' you infered that they were more arguments that are not included in your post. Now, since we infered that there were other arguments that existed outside the realm of the arguments that you presented, it is your duty as the writer to specify that your conclusion only applies to the arguments that you presented, and not the other arguments that exist. For example, if said: "Here are some reasons that the Earth is flat: People under the earth would fall off It looks flat If I jump, the earth doesn't move under me, therefore the earth isn't spinning on an axis. If you believe the earth is flat, you are a moron" NOW. It is infered from the context that I am referring to ANYONE who believes the Earth is flat. I just presented some of their arguments. And that, my friend, is your lesson in English composition. (apparently miami.edu doesn't do a good job)

Speaking of reading comprehension, I dont' think I need to point out you misreading glider's post, again.

What makes you say that? We can clone rats all we ant, but we still can't get it right.

..and damage to the cell is cell death. We don't see too many in-vitro children dying at an early age or major genetic defects. Most of the problems are failed fertilizations. Consentual or necessary. Cloning is neither. "If you think somatic cell nuclear transfer is wrong, but believe identical twins are normal seperate people, or that in vitro fertilization is acceptable, then you are a hypocrite."

He didn't call you an idiot, unless you agree that "you can't tell that there is a fundamental difference between reproductive cloning and invitro fertilisation or MZ twins with respect to both procedure and implications" Even so, you announced blanketedly that everyone who is against SNT and believes that twins are normal people is a hypocrite. Not only does that offend me, but it shows your lack of thought on the issue, especially since you sidestepped any moral objections.

You sidestepped this issue twice. It is not ethical or acceptable in any way for us to clone unless we can eliminate any chance of error. We don't have to take the chance. This is a human life we're dealing with, not a rat in a research lab. Mistakes and errors have real consequences, and someone has to live with these defects. Imagine living as a terminally ill child. Now imagine that the only reason you're ill is because you were a mistake in a test tube. Yes, genetic defects are natural and kids are born every day with terrible medical problems. However, this does not give us the right to take the same chance in a test tube. What happens when life/health insurance companies start charging clones more / month because they have a higher risk of problems? Who gets to tell the child that he has severe deformaties, that he will never walk and run like normal kids, and that he will probably not live passed twenty-five because "we" felt it "worth the risk" and that CHANCE is just CHANCE? It is quite sickening that some of us are willing to take this risk with a living, breathing, feeling person.

Nor is the earth's mass, or sun's mass...but its still quite interesting to take measurements.

In the 1800s children could divide and multiply numbers in their head like that. amazing eh? Just goes to show what a little discipline will do for your brain. But yea, I do it the same way dave does, break it down to the nearest unit of ten (for addition and subtraction anyway). For anything more, out comes the TI To be honest, I probably use the TI to do my addition. we're spoiled rotten with these things.

" Great job man!!

I'm assuming by looking at what I attached that electrons transfer their momentum to photons?

But at the "Eddington Limit", the luminosity is so great that the photons exert enough pressure to keep matter from falling in any faster.

But if photons could not escape, how can they exert pressure in the opposite direction to keep matter from falling in?

I just found out about this from the recent news article about black holes. Is this something that is hypothesized or is it considered a pretty solid notion? I thought photons could not escape black holes. If this were true, how could photons exert enough pressure in the opposite direction to keep matter from falling in?

Astronomers from Canada and the United Kingdom have measured the mass of a black hole swallowing a quasar 13 billion light years away. They used the UKIRT Imager Spectrometer to measure the infared spectrum emitted from the quasar. Dr. Chris Willott explained "We can determine the mass of the black holes in these distant quasars by looking at the MgII emission line and comparing it with the same emission line in closer quasars. The basic idea here is that the width of the line gives an indication of the speed of the gas close to the quasar. More massive black holes will have faster moving material." The team of researchers determined the black hole is one quadrillion times as massive as the earth. Thats 1,000,000,000,000,000 for the mathmatically imparied. The team also noted that the black hole is swallowing the quasar at the maximum rate possible, called the "Eddington Limit". If the black whole was sucking matter in any faster, its luminosity would exert enough pressure to keep matter from falling in. Source: spaceflightnow

Chondrus crispus, its used to make jellies and soups.

haha, i'm sure there is tons of species...do you know the generic name of the kind your looking for?

let me know when you get it finished, i can host it on this server

I'm $ure he would for a "$mall" fee

I disagree. While human subjectivity may skew the nature of something, that something still exists in its absolute, true form. I don't think its dependant on how we view it.
