Get it?

Here is an excerpt from a BBC.com article:

Boys born to women exposed to hairspray in the workplace may have a higher risk of being born with a genital defect.

Imperial College London scientists talked to women who had babies with hypospadias, where the urinary tract is found away from the penis. They reported that hairspray exposure more than doubled the risk. The study in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives, said it was too early to say for certain that hairspray was the cause.

Pepno!

"Pepsi's recently announced identity makeover from Omnicom's Arnell Group has been the object of a few grimaces in the design world. The logo and packaging redesign for the mega-brand's suite of soft drinks has morphed the iconic mark's white band into a happy mouth, of sorts. For original Pepsi, the band will represent a smile, the essence of the brand, while the slightly indulgent, yet controlled Diet Pepsi has a bit of a grin and Diet Pepsi Max gets full out laughs. Arnell Group founder Peter Arnell says all he did was tweak the original logo to reflect what consumers feel when they're with the brands."

Apparently other designers hate it...I'm not a big fan either.

Here are all the previous Pepsi designs.

Stem Cells Wonder...All over the news.

Surgeons in Spain have carried out the world's first tissue-engineered whole organ transplant - using a windpipe made with the patient's own stem cells.

The groundbreaking technology also means for the first time tissue transplants can be carried out without the need for anti-rejection drugs. Five months on the patient, 30-year-old mother-of-two Claudia Castillo, is in perfect health, The Lancet reports. She needed the transplant to save a lung after contracting tuberculosis. The Colombian woman's airways had been damaged by the disease. Scientists from Bristol helped grow the cells for the transplant and the European team believes such tailor-made organs could become the norm. To make the new airway, the doctors took a donor windpipe, or trachea, from a patient who had recently died.

Then they used strong chemicals and enzymes to wash away all of the cells from the donor trachea, leaving only a tissue scaffold made of the fibrous protein collagen. This gave them a structure to repopulate with cells from Ms Castillo herself, which could then be used in an operation to repair her damaged left bronchus - a branch of the windpipe.

This reminds me of my thesis...

Trip to New Orleans...

So technically I have only been back for one night. Here are some quick shots of my trip, which was amazing...

The first is of the airport in Charlotte, NC. Note (although you can't see it) that on the right side instead of regular chairs and benches, they had white rocking chairs everywhere! I love the south.

The first night I walked around the hotel area uptown (first picture) and then to the French Quarter, Bourbon Street (next picture), where there were some funky Mardi Gras stores (next picture).

The last day I walked around the wester side of the city where both LSU, Tulane Undergraduate, The Zoo, and the Audobon Park were located.

IN TRANSIT.

Currently in my suit attire, exhausted from a long day getting interviewed at Tulane Medical University in New Orleans. Amazing trip. I might just post pictures on here...well the few i took with my phone.

Lots of other stuff to upload also.
