Master what now?

When I was in high school I remember a kid getting kicked out for wearing a Guns N Roses, LIES LIES LIES t-shirt because it was judged to be obscene. Today my student was wearing this shirt. I suppose I should have judged it to be obscene, if only I could have understood it.

odd shirt

PS. A note to very gentle people everywhere: lock your doors.

if I taught an english class and a student walked in with that shirt I would give him an automatic “f” on all assignments due on that day.

because if you know anything about english you’d realize that the text on that shirt makes less sense than a mad libs.

“We used to think activity turned a switch to specify which transmit chemical a neuron would use only in early development,” said co-author Davide Dulcis, a Postdoctoral fellow in neurobiology who designed and conducted the experiments. “But this is happening after hatching.”

Person (see Law) = evolve in different ways and qualify for a professional

Fellow = other meet and move forward with the development (and respecting each other’s rights)
