Just wanted to share that my first first-author paper is now online! In the journal Stem Cells and Development, here’s my paper on “Roles of Integrins in Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Growth on Matrigel and Vitronectin.”
It’s a different sort of state-by-state comparison
And now that you’ve hopefully looked at this and gotten a laugh: It’s a hoax 🙁
Owen - September 26th, 2004 at 8:14 pmIn a fit of boredom last night, I went ahead and made my own chart using stats found on an education-related site.
Average Bush state IQ: 99.3
Average Gore state IQ: 100.9
Yeah, I saw this months ago and found out it was a “hoax”… but, how hard can it be to make a real version? All you need are average state IQs and voting records. I figured the problem is that not enough people take IQ tests anymore to be able to create a state average… *shrug*
Teisha - September 26th, 2004 at 9:30 pmGoogling for links to the hoax, I see “this”:http://www.sq.4mg.com/stateIQ-income.htm
A site claiming more verifiable statistics that show politics and IQ don’t co-segregate, but income does. Not surprising, since these data were derived from SAT and ACT scores, and if you’re not worried about finding food or paying rent, it’s easier to study.

Just read a fascinating (if lengthy) essay on disruptive technology and the future of scientific publishing. Well worth the read!
Just wanted to share Mint.com’s Visual Guide to Deflation, which is quite explanatory.
Hey all Paradoxdruid readers! I recently started up a blog on stem cells that I’d love you all to take a look at: http://www.allthingsstemcell.com/
I participated in another Barely literate book review podcast, this time on Nicholson Baker’s “The Fermata”. Give it a listen!
Obama has outlined a strategy for America, in great depth. Read all about Change.gov!
Okay, I’ll admit that it’s entirely possible that I am the last person to learn about this website*, but it’s really addictive.Â
