2 ) Cellular mosaics via somatic mutations, by Carl Zimmer (I think you’ve blogged about mosaicism via differential gene activation (calico cats!) before, but it’s been a while)
What caught my eye: ” Michael Frederick really is listed as a psychologist at the University of Baltimore, with Gordon Gallup, Jr. listed as an evolutionary psychologist at University of Albany. ” (emph mine)
(And shouldn’t Laelaps be in your blogroll somewhere?)

The hat threw me for a minute… though maybe I’d browsed to John Loftus’ site.

Can you comment on gene activation after death. I’ve heard that they have found this happening in zebrafish. Is this activation evolved?

The original thing we weren’t allowed to talk about resembled an Aussie bush h *t that made you look like you were about to wrestle a croc. The recent thing that was not there was really stylish and made you look debonair. Try more varieties of those mystery noggin covers.
Crip Dyke was a wonderful guest. Looked as though you had to field some odd questions from the peanut gallery. I will need to rewatch as either the feed or my connectivity was wonky. Echoed and froze a bunch.

Bring the hat back. Please. It was adorable.

3 ) How about this recent paper in Science about the lineage map of various embryos developing — including zebrafish.
And:
4 ) The awesome art of Franz Anthony — lots of cephalopods! Hi-rez image of that cephalopods poster, via his Twitter acct
Gah.
3) How about these recent papers in Science about the lineage maps of various embryos developing — including zebrafish.
Plural! Several papers!
If evolution is true, why do we have Paul Manafort and monkeys? And not just monkeys?
I’m just throwing all kinds of stuff out there. . .
5 ) Brian Switek dissects a bad palaeontological hypothesis
