Well, my birthday was June 7th, and the scores weren't released. Now the AAMC is saying "the 15th"..

We changed machines. The database was backed up and installed on the new server. All posts between that time were lost. (sorry, wasn't our fault. We didn't even know it was coming)

lol

Listen, if you're going to equate humans with animals, then there is no good reason why we should pay any attention to another species' well-being. Any and all advantages that can be taken to improve our quality of life or lengtehn our survival should be taken. That's how things work with the animals. Dogs torture squirrels just for the heck of it. A little entertainment at the expense of another animal's life is not an issue. If animals are our "equals", then we have no responsibility not to act like one.

He didn't even know who his wife was by the time he died. What a sad disease.

That would be awesome dave. ^

dave, is it more "secure" than outlook?

The scores are going to be released on my birthday. That's a good sign..right? RIGHT?!?!

Boooooo

It has to be free (open source or freeware) and good. I'm sick of outlook express. What do you all use?

The official record for going without sleep is 265 hours and 12 minutes. Roughly 11 days.

rofl. calgary sucks, you guys got shut down last night GO Bolts! PREPARE TO BE DOMINATED IN TAMPA.

You're quite welcome. Feel free to post if you come across any more questions.

Whoever started this "reality show" crap needs to be shot. That's all that's on the network channels anymore. "OMG SEE WHO BOOTS WHO OFF THE SHOW." pfT.

Glad to see TV has gone to crap in more places than just america.

I'm not quite sure why you're studying very specific ion gated channels when you havn't quite got a grip on proteins yet. I'm not trying to be condescending, just wondering if you're teaching yourself or if you're enrolled in a course that's throwing this at you without prior knowledge of general protein biology. Anyhow, remember that the tertiary and quaternary structure of a protein is dictated by the four weak interactions [ionic, Van der Waals, hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic interactions]. A ligand binds to the protein by weak interactions as well. Most proteins are very specific for their ligands. In other words, the shape of the protein in it's unbound state naturally allows for close contact with the ligand. When a ligand forms bonds with the protein, other bonds are disrupted all along the structure of the protein. This causes a rearrangement in shape. You've misunderstood me somewhere along the line. The protein is a transmembrane protein. In other words, one end is on the inside of the cell, and the other end is on the outside. Think of it as a tunnel. When the protein is in it's natural conformation, the tunnel is closed (because of the shape). When the ligand binds, the channel opens up. In this case, ions flow through when the channel is open.

The binding of the ligand changes the conformation of the protein, which allows the passage of the molecule.

Do you get a red X or what? They're all working for me :/

I'd kill the chicken. Then I'd have a good meal and my dog.

lol, its the script. It will be fixed shortly for you my dear. Mass email = mass headache

They're only there for another month or so (not sure how long is left in the term). I know the google ads don't contain spyware. I don't think the other one's do either.

USF (my univ) uses the blackboard learning system for some aspects of the class. I think it's quite expensive.

Hrm>
