Reply to comment by atomfullerene in Why are specific monkey/ape species suitable for biomedical research while others are not ? by Sleevvin
I actually thought use of apes ie chimps is now prohibited by law at least in the us. Ethical reasons mostly and not as “useful” as once thought for all the reasons.

I actually never read that hitler needed Russias oil. It makes sense though.

Hmmm well in practice fruit trees are propagated from cuttings and thus are clones and are not grown from seeds. Propagation ensures the consistency. Keep in mind that fruit trees are highly altered and manipulated from their wild ancestral form. Many tree varietals found in nurseries cannot be grown from seeds at all. But that’s about as much as I know. Hope this helps and I look forward to more detailed answers. Great question!

Yes. Very true. He didn’t know the guy just killed and injured 20 people. He’s probably still in shock at what he had done. And the fact that he didn’t shoot at the suspect. He shooed him away! The hero said he had never seen a real gun. Not sure I have either. Except maybe in a cops holster.

Reply to comment by PrncssGmdrp in TIL JFK Jr's nickname, "John-John", was because a reporter misheard JFK calling him "John" twice in quick succession and the name was not used by his family. by mankls3
Or so she said! Remember Carol, who was friends with him for real, smacked Sonja down behind her back for calling him John John? Saying people that knew him didn’t call him that. Sonja was goofy but she was okay. I believe he coulda partied on her yacht.

Now this is just very disrespectful! His parts really should be interred with the rest of his corpse! Poor guy. Don’t we owe him that much?!

You never know until you are in that exact situation. Another day or 5 seconds later you could make a different choice. You could see a moment of opportunity.

They have an adaptation that is sometimes called a “pseudo thumb”which is actually an elongated wrist bone. It helps them grip bamboo. Red pandas are sooooo cute!

Money is a big motivator right? It seems like a cop with a story of systemic abuse would have published a book by now. Granted they would be totally fucked as far as being a cop but for a big payday? Well I guess they might have to implicate themselves in the process. Any thoughts?!

Anybody get the feeling they slammed on brakes because they wanted him to slam into the wall?!?! Maybe they didn’t mean for him to die but it was probably deliberate. Because cops you know need to know how to drive.

Omg I remember playing this. So funny. You would open a little plastic door and their would be a handsome guy or “a dud”. A dud was sloppy looking with bad posture and dirty clothing as I recall.

Reply to comment by big65 in If teeth are mounted in sockets in the jaw bone, how do braces move them around? Do the sockets move with them? by MyCodesCumpie-ling
Bone is not totally rigid like cement is. It has a little bit of flexibility. This feature is very important for our survival.
