Spottedlabcoat - Bif replied to Declan Roden's discussion What can I do to decrease world suck?"Best way to do this is to eat Kangaroo! Kangaroos are actually pests in some parts of Australia, they take less energy and water to produce per kg and don't have the methane problem that cattle do. They also are pretty tasty. :)"

Atoms and Cells - From my blog: http://spottedlabcoat.blogspot.com/
Cells, atoms and molecules are often referred to in the news and throughout science, but what are they exactly?
Cells
Cells are the building blocks of every organic thing on this planet; they cannot be seen with the naked eye and come in all different types, blood cells, skin cells, muscle cells and brain cells. Different cells have different jobs and different structures. Although cells are very small, they can be seen under a microscope, a… Continue

DNA - What it is and What it does - From my blog: http://spottedlabcoat.blogspot.com/
DNA is made up of four different molecules. It is easiest to think of these molecules as lego blocks. In the diagram below there are two towers of Lego, each making the same shape and of the same height, but using only the same four colours blocks. However, those four blocks are used in different amounts and different orders.
DNA is made up of the four blocks A, T, C and G. These letters are… Continue

Natural Selection - From my blog http://spottedlabcoat.blogspot.com/
Natural selection is one of those terms which is thrown around a lot by people in the scientific and lay community alike, however many people are not aware of exactly what natural selection is or how it works. Not only this, but there are some people who believe that natural selection is something which happens ‘out there’ in nature, and doesn’t really affect us directly. I will show you some of the ways in which natural selection does affect our everyday life and of course, talk to you about… Continue

Greetings and Many Happy Readings - http://spottedlabcoat.blogspot.com/
Science is one of those entities which is all around us, this computer I am typing on, the pen you used to write down a message with, the tap you just turned on to wash your hands – these are all examples of what science has been able to give us. However, despite the degree to which the products of science are integrated into our lives, in general, scientists themselves are not very good at communicating with the wider community.

Simowns said… - Hello Fellow Brisbane Nerdfighter:)
We are organizing a Nerdfighting group who get together every month to have some nerdy fun and decrease world suck! What we will be doing exactly hasn’t been completely decided yet, however if you would like to be involved we are having a little get together to discuss what we can do over the next year,
Some suggestions are:
-Having people teach us more about their nerdy loves, doctor who, harry potter etc.
-Having people teach us how to do nerdy things, solve a Rubix cube, origami etc
-Fundraising to decrease world suck
-FIELD TRIPS! Going to see movies, perhaps the planetarium, science centre etc
All these suggestions plus any others will be discussed as a group deciding which are do-able:)
If nothing else it might be a fun way to meet other Nerdfighters and chill out while being your-self
This means of course, no giant squids of anger!! Any twilight bashing of any kind will not be tolerated... unless it’s hilarious.
If you have any suggestions or want to know more please contact me on brisbanenerdfighters@gmail.com and I will get back to you as soon as I can:)
We hope that it will be So Jokes!
Simowns
PS. We need a sweet name! send your suggestions through!!:)

- Studying architecture, third year (final week right now) Alas I kinda got bored with the work earlier in the year and I fear I'm about to fail. But yeah, if I did pass I'd be done and theoreticly ready for the big bad world.

Shannon Collier said… - Hi there!
You replied to my discussion "Rainbow DFTBA wristbands!" and you said that you might like to order one. I'd really love to have them made, so if you're still interested send me an email with the subject "DFTBA wristbands" and please indicate how many you would like.
Also, tell all of your nerdfighting friends to order one as well as that will make the price lower.
Right now I'm estimating each one to cost $2.00 + $2.00 shipping and handling to North America and $4.00 shipping and handling anywhere overseas. If you order more than one shipping costs don't change much, if at all, as wristbands weigh only 1-2 grams.
Get the word out! Rainbow wristbands for the win!
