New research on mice finds that trauma conditions at a young age produce PTSD-like symptoms, and the symptoms cause genetic changes that are passed down to offspring.

LOts of genes we have are dampened down by our opposite parent’s gene for the same thing. I’ve been reading on studies of this that they are doing now, interesting stuff.
Other genes are turned on and expresse only under certain conditions.
Studies done of children who were raised in familine conditions. The female3 children born who were starved before they were born bear babie girls who have every egg they will ever produce for the next generations, and these eggs are malformed. That baby will grow up and have a retarded baby because the baby’s mother was starved in her grandmother’s womb.
The male childen will be retarded as well but they will produce new ssperm and their children will not be abnormally retarded if they have also not been strarved after conception.
Starvation produce generations of sub-prime intellectual females ujp to three generations.l Think about Darfur and other places, NIger, and now Haiti and Pakastan areas that were marginal at first, but then throw in war, drougth, floods and disease and little or no medical care or vaccines, much less food and clean water.
Even in this country with many young American teenagers having babies and living on sodas and friend potatgo chips and the like, the children these teenagers are producing have not had an ideal diet prior to birth, and probably won’t after words.
I read an article today in a London paper about a 21 year old bloke who has 8 babies b orn to 8 women and two more to be born shortrly. Each of these women are on welfare and are quite young themselves, and now that they have a baby will be given a “counsil house” (public housing apartment) and welfare money to riase it. I am just almost sure this don juan who has spread his seed so widely in London, will continue to propogate his genetic material “for the good of the world” (NOT!!!)
Which of these 10 teeanged girls will know to teach h er children to have a conscience and teach them right from wrong, and to demmponstrate empathy (even if she knew those words)?
I feel over whelmed, I can’t fix the world, but if I can do one good thing or say one nice thing that encourages some, I guess that is what I have to count on is dcoing what I can do and not being sad I can’t do everything.l

So….let me get this right.
If I am adopted….and I have holes in my jeans….
I’m not in a very good life position then right?
AHHHHH, no wonder I found a sociopath to spend my life with.
Blame it on the jeans!

Off to bed now…..handing over the Late night tiara to you Oxy….Nighty night.

Lyrics:
I’m no stranger to the rain
I’m a friend of thunder
Friend, is it any wonder lightning strikes me
I’ve fought with the devil
Got down on his level
But I never gave in, so he gave up on me
I’m no stranger to the rain
I can spot bad weather
And I’m good at finding shelter in a downpour
I’ve been sacrificed by brothers
Crucified by lovers
But through it all I withstood the pain
I’m no stranger to the rain
But when I get that foggy feeling
When I’m feeling down
If I don’t keep my head up, I may drown
But it’s hard to keep believing
I’ll even come out even
While the rain beats your hope in the ground
And tonight it’s really coming down
I’m no stranger to the rain
But there’ll always be tomorrow
And I’ll beg, steal, or borrow a little sunshine
And I’ll put this cloud behind me
That’s how the Man designed me
To ride the wind and dance in a hurricane
I’m no stranger to the rain
Oh, no, I’m no stranger to the rain
I’m no stranger to the rain
I’m a friend of thunder
Friend, is it any wonder lightning strikes me
But I’ll put this cloud behind me
That’s how the Man designed me
To ride the wind and dance in a hurricane
I’m no stranger to the rain
Oh, no, I’m no stranger to the rain

COMPUTER PROBLEMS? I am having problems ONLY on LF and ONLY on some threads. If a thread is long (and “long” can be anywhere from 150-300+ comments) I can’t get on it SOMETIMES. It will just load the first part of the comments but not get down to the “comments” box, and the script will go all the way to the right side of the screen (i.e. none of the ads come up on the right side of the screen.)
Sometimes if I just “refresh” it will load, but other times not at all.
Also, as soon as I Tell donna about it, it “faith heals” then may be okay for an hour, or a day or a month! It only happens on LF and I am not slow even on loading on other sites.
Anyone else have such a problem? I use an air card, but changed from AT&T to Verizon and service is much better.
Suggestions?
