Oh how I lack sleep. The Peptides- For Those Who Hate Each Other MYSPACE | WEBSITE
Happy third birthday Cover Me! Eleven brand-new covers to help us celebrate!
The blogs are abuzz with the impending anniversary of John Lennon 's birth; the man would have turned 70 this Saturday, and in keeping with the digital world's everpresent bent towards relevance and immediacy, the faux-urgency of the date seems to have started an avalanche of tribute. And though we're not usually the bandwagon types, it's hard to ignore the way the Lennon story has come to define both the end of a social era, and the sad coda to the Beatles' breakup - and the impact his songs and spirit have had on music, both in [...]

The gel or thin film contains a peptide known as MSH, or melanocyte-stimulating hormone. Previous experiments, reported in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, showed that MSH encourages bone regeneration. Bone and teeth are fairly similar, so the French scientists reasoned that if the MSH were applied to teeth, it should help healing as well. To test their theory, the French scientists applied either a film or gel, both of which contained MSH, to cavity-filled mice teeth. After about one month, the cavities [...]
It starts with Twinkle Twinkle Little Star and Goodnight Moon, and before you know it, you're out in the yard long after bedtime, the winter cold against your upturned nose, holding hands with Daddy and tracking yellow-red Mars through the trees on a clear and moonless night.

Summers, we lie on our backs in the folk festival fields to watch the meteor showers, and wonder at how brief the light, and how hot the distant [...]
