The Role of Inbreeding in the Extinction of a European Royal Dynasty
Gonzalo Alvarez mail, Francisco C. Ceballos, Celsa Quinteiro
Abstract
The kings of the Spanish Habsburg dynasty (1516–1700) frequently married
close relatives in such a way that uncle-niece, first cousins and other
consanguineous unions were prevalent in that dynasty. In the historical
literature, it has been suggested that inbreeding was a major cause

Abstract
We found a relative preference for pinker genital images with redder
genitalia rated significantly less sexually attractive. This effect was
independent of raters' prior sexual experience and variation in female
genital morphology.
Results
We found that men presented with images digitally manipulated to show a
gradation in colour from light pink to red, rated the reddest shade least
attractive. Colour exerted a significant ... 阅读全帖 |

One of my most important papers was rejected by Science and Nature. I
published it in Plos One. It is highly accessed (>30,000 times) and has
relatively low citations. But it is widely regarded as a key breakthrough,
highlighted by Royal Society, ACS, ASM, NRP,the Economist, MIT Technology
Review, and Der Spiegel, etc.

Breast Cancer Mortality vs. Exercise and Breast Size in Runners and Walkers
Paul T. Williams
该研究在11年时间共跟踪调查了79124名妇女,研究开始前无人有乳癌历史,11年共有
111名去世(貌似比例不高啊)。大致结果是:
* 走路和跑步是算在一起的,运动量超过7.5 MET-hour/week对于风险降低没有太大区
别;
* 超过上述运动量的人群中,乳癌死亡率比低于上述运动量的小41.5%;
* 除了年龄和停经之外,胸罩尺寸是最大的乳癌风险因素。相对于A-cup,C-cup死亡率
高4倍。另外,Those whose breast are ≥75% dense tissue have a four- to six-
fold higher breast cancer risk than women with <25% dense tissue [... 阅读全帖 |

I will probably sign up for one in early to mid October. The standard
choices for me are Hartford Marathon
and Bay State Marathon, both of which are medium size races with fast
courses. If you do not care about BQ or
PR, then Mount Desert Island Marathon might be a good choice -- it is
supposed to be the most beautiful

这篇研究很有意思,得出的结论是母亲年纪越大,孩子智力越高,父亲年纪越大,孩子
智力越低。值得注意的是,这篇文章去除了社会经济地位的因素。和一般人认为的男人
条件越好越迟结婚的印象不同,通常是社会经济地位越低的男人结婚越迟,因为没有机
会,所以不去除这个因素,很可能年长父亲有笨儿子的原因之一是蠢父亲才会很迟才有
机会结婚。他们的model 1没有去除经济因素,因此年长父亲笨孩子的关系更明显。(

G****t 发帖数: 1799 | 41 佛教不接受灵魂的观念,因为这在缘起缘灭的理论上不能成立,站在“生灭无常”的立
足点上,看一切事物都是生灭无常的,物质界是如此,精神界亦复如此。用肉眼看事物
,往往会发生“成而不变”的错觉,若用精密的仪器去看任何事物,无不都在刹那变化
之中,易经所说的“生生”,其实在生生的背后,也包含着死死,也就是变变或化化。
物质界的物理现象,既然是生生不息的,再看精神界的心理现象,那就更容易觉察出来
了,因为心理现象的产生,就是由于精神的变动而来。心理现象的变动,促成了我人行
为的或善或恶,善恶的行为,又会反转身来影响到心理现象的倾向,我们的前程远景,
便是靠着这种心理促成行为,行为影响心理的循环作用而定。
灵魂的不变性,灵魂的永恒性,那是可能的吗?当然是不可能的,不要说死后没有固定
的灵魂,纵然活着的时候,我们的身心也都是活在刹那不停地变了又变而变变不已之中
。照这样说,佛教既不相信灵魂,那末,佛教所说六道轮回与超凡入圣的本体,究竟又
是甚么呢?
这就是佛教特殊优胜的地方,既不看重自我的永久价值,却又更加地肯定了自性的升拔
价值。

what I believe is that they add more dots in some, and erase some from
others, but unfortunatelly was not well done. Fig 7 has same problem, other
