New Development in Cloning

Chimera Kids...
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/now-we-have-the-technology-that-can-make-a-cloned-child-808625.html

From what the article says the process can create a child with three parents, the skin cells used can be from anyone, have they tried more then one skin cell, why not more parents, each skin cell in its embryonic state would act as more genetic code or would it be like planting more than one seed but only one would have the chance of taking root.
And is there a species wall, would not the skin cell of another relative close to a mouse be accepted by the embryo, or would it act like foreign matter killing the entire egg.
If there are already 2 parents with healthy genes, and a third is introduced that is not as healthy (ie short guy, balding) which genes are made recessive or dominant.

These are questions I want answers to, because It is my wish to have a child part human, part dolphin

Zelda and Katsuya Terada


Pics of Classic Zelda art from Blood: The Last Vampire artist Katsuya Terada. I found these here so I have to give my thanks to Studio Jfish for this great find. He has more pics on his journal but this is one of my favorite. http://studiojfish.livejournal.com/79805.html

So this scares me

I-work-retail-and-I-can-tell-you-something-big-is-definitely-coming

Just a little scariness from someone who may actually be in a position to see patterns in the papers that filter through his workspace. At the same time this also may be bullshit as it might just be the chain is crap... What do you think?
Anyone else in Retail care to back this up?

So yeah

This is me, I have a blog and my last post is the reason why. I didn't know where to post it and have a bunch of things Id like to say, even if no one reads it... I hope someone reads it... not like i get any money doing this but this may be a good place to vent or talk about what I feel is happening out there, maybe someone will agree with me or i might learn something in the process... probably not.

SNL no longer declining?

This weekends episode was actually really good. Ashton Kutcher is an OK actor, but he really brought some class to sketches like the 4 guys drinking, "washing myself with a loofah", and the ending was so left field, but at least it was an ending, something I have missed in the past 3 years.

But the actual Not Ready for Prime Time Players (the cast) really shined especially Kristen Wiig as Jamie Lee Curtis.
And of Course, Amy Poehler, who I worship, and Seth Meyers, he's ok, did an always excellent Weekend update, the one part of the show who hasn't let me down in the past.
But the Jack Johnson show left me really disappointed, it was short and had no point but to make fun of the artists and mellow music styles that make some girls melt...
The Strip club was great not only for Ashtons Costume, but for the new girl to be spotlighted. Casey Wilson is pretty funny, it will be nice to see if she lasts more then a season as she seems to be a heavier set Kristen Wiig, I hope she breaks out.

I really liked the Death by Chocolate, it was strange but it worked for the 2 sketches I saw. Kutcher in a big bar suit with cartoon hands and a Jokeresque make-up job. Why wasn't he chosen to replace Heath Ledger...

Gnarls Barkley is a great group, Cee-Lo has such an soulful voice, deep and painful to the heart, but when he sings a powerful groove, makes you come alive. And the arrangements of Danger Mouse backing those words with amazing instrumentals that swoon and drive the beat, wooo.

Good Star, Good Band, Good Job, please keep it up.
