Most varieties of snake can go an entire year without eating a single morsel of food. http://www.roddy-bg.com/blog/post/24.html So, what’s this all about? It all started with William Bates, ophthalmologist, who first published his ideas in Better Eyesight magazine, in the 1920’s. As he treated his patients, Bates noticed that contrary to what he was taught in optometry school, people’s vision did vary from day to day; astigmatisms did change or disappear. http://www.roddy-bg.com/blog/post/23.html Marvell on Tuesday introduced a new kind of personal computer, called SheevaPlug, along with its Plug Computing initiative. The idea is to make make a high-performance, ultracompact, and green computer that consumers can plug right into a wall power socket. http://www.roddy-bg.com/blog/post/22.html Babies are born without kneecaps; they don’t appear until the ages of 2-6 months old. http://www.roddy-bg.com/blog/post/20.html The name of the game may originate from the days of its origins in Scotland, when it was strictly a "Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden" sport - hence GOLF http://www.roddy-bg.com/blog/post/19.html Michael Crichton died unexpectedly in Los Angeles Tuesday, November 4, 2008 after a courageous and private battle against cancer. http://www.roddy-bg.com/blog/post/18.html Dolphins jump out of the water to conserve energy.

The cat has a jellyfish gene, hence the glowing in the dark. I welcome the technical progress and innovations but I find this one on the extreme side. What's next? Maybe, a puppy with chameleon genes that changes its color in accordance with its owner outfit. This reminds me very much of Michael Crichton's book "Next". I really wonder what's next. Btw. the cat's name is Mr. Green Genes. Cute, isn't it?
