• This Microorganism Doesn‘t Fit Into the ’Tree of Life’ and May Become Founder of a New Kingdom

  The problem with that, is the rarity of mutations, in general, and the fact that the overwhelming majority of mutations have a negative effect.
  When you calculate the statistical odds of having a sufficiently extensive succession of positive random changes (given the wild variations in the ways mutations can occur) to actuate a physical transformation, we are almost in the same range as entertaining the possibility of turning lead in to gold

• This Microorganism Doesn‘t Fit Into the ’Tree of Life’ and May Become Founder of a New Kingdom

  Can anyone explain how a randomly mutated DNA sequence can be replicated in a way that would be beneficial?
  There are 4 different nucleotide bases, Adenine (A), Thymine (T), Cytosine (C), Guanine (G).
  A can only bind with T, and C can only bind with G, and only 2% of our DNA actually form genes.
  When DNA is replicated, before every cell division, one identical copy goes to each daughter cell. Then two new strands are built up by complementary base-pairing onto the two old strands.
  How can a random mistake in this sequencing, whether it is the insertion or deletion of one of the bases, or the substitution of one base for another, create an improved sequencing order?

  It flies in the face of anything resembling common sense

  I guess that was Meet the Press I switched to.
  They’re all the same

  They all blur together, as they’re all the same

  I may have to go back and watch this on my DVR. Even though she’s a RINO hack, I can’t resist watching what led to Keith being slapped down
  I switched over to lil’ George Stephanopolis when I saw that Olberman was going to be a panelist. Olberman + David Brooks = almost impossible to watch

• Farrakhan’s Wild New Claims: Jesus Was a Black Muslim & Elijah Would Be the ‘N***er at the Door’ (Plus the Bible Was Wrong About Cain!)

  April 12, 2012 at 7:06pm

  How stupid can someone be?
  Jesus was an Israelite.
  He was half Judahite, and half Levite.
  That’s not up for debate.

  What was the deal about Cain?
  I would have liked to hear him finish that.
  I wonder if he thinks that the “mark of Cain” implies that he was black?
  What a freaking nut-job.

• Arkansas Coach Put on Leave After ‘Inappropriate Relationship’ Revealed Following Motorcycle Accident

  Petrino should stay.
  If Rick Pitino can stay at Louisville, and have the success he’s had, after being caught in an affair, there’s no reason to fire Petrino.
  GO HOGS!!

• Arby’s Responds to Annoyed Limbaugh Fans by Blocking Them on Twitter

  I listen to Rush daily.
  I have never heard an Arby’s commercial.
  There are no ads to pull, where I live

• Check Out the Robotic Toilet That Made Kohler a Net Exporter of American-Made Products

  March 31, 2012 at 2:00pm

  Kohler is one of the companies that dropped its advertising on Rush’s show.
  Plus, they suck as a fixture producer.
  American Standard or Delta is much better

  Glenn, I hope you’re reading this.
  PLEASE give Pat 5 minutes to do Specter discussing Sarah Palin tomorrow.
