I've been really busy this quarter to my summer goals of witting more Catgirl Commentary has gone off track.... but I could probably teach a course in quantitative biology given the amount of stuff I've managed to cram into my brain over the last few months.That said I still manage to find the occasional free moment to post something on the new improved Catgirl Meowing that's hosted over at http:

Did you know your not-always-friendly neighbourhood catgirl is drawing flowers?

On this day (August 26) in 1920, the 19th Amendment granting women the right to vote became law, Ted Kennedy had nothing to do with that, but he was instrumental in getting Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 passed.Most people think of women's sports when Title IX is mentioned, and while high school and university athletics owe their existence to it, the law is much broader - covering

I came across this while viewing the “The Ten Best Sex Toys” slide show in The Independent Monday.Most of the items are overly refined takes on rather conservative stand bys (I guess hello kitty vibrators and triple penetration strap-on contraptions entries would be a tad much for prime time), but the Hot and Cold Ceramic Dildo, pictured left, caught my eye.More inside »»Hot and Cold Ceramic

I decided to run down to the coffee shop this morning and visit with Jen as I have been spending most of my summer on the north side with volleyball and nana visiting. Business is brisk on weekend mornings, as we have a great gimmick - Lexi the communal baby! People hang out in the shop just to watch Lexi run around, squeal really really loud, and answer NO to everything they say. Babies

But the State of Alaska has exploited a loophole that allows private citizens to kill of hundreds of wolves annually under what's called "wildlife management."

According to United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), the world's population(already at 6.7 billion) will double in the next 40 years if current growth rates are left unchecked.That would be 13.4 billion people by 2050, the thing is that regardless of which ecological model you use (energy, water, food, biodiversity, climate change), the ecosystem falls apart somewhere between 10-12 billion
