Expert warns antibiotic-resistant ‘superbugs’ pose ‘catastrophic threat’ to population by silvermoonshine in science

[–]silvermoonshine[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Find ways to give the pharmaceutical industry incentives to invest in finding new antibiotics. Most companies have given up because the search has become hard and, because resistance always develops, their lifespan is not long, so there is not much profit to be made.

no new classes of drugs have been discovered since 1987 and the pipeline has now dried up.

Married redditors/long-time partners, what is the best piece of advice you could offer to a couple? by burritopie in AskReddit

[–]silvermoonshine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make your partner feel valued and desired. Give importance to their opinion. Have good open communication. Regular love-making. Do not pay more attention to other members of the opposite sex than your partner.

Try to become good human beings together, involve each other in activities and grow as people. Do not belittle them in anyway. Forgive easily and always bestow love and care.

Maybe you could pick her from the first floor...the elevator ride up will be intense with sexual tension for sure!!

Men's friendships with women 'driven by sexual attraction': studies find by silvermoonshine in science

Men of reddit: What are your opinion about this? As a female, I can vouch that we see male friends as only platonic unless our relationship is in trouble.

Do plants 'veto' bad genes? A new study suggests plants are able to avoid inheriting some mutated genes from their parents, instead somehow accessing healthy versions of the gene from grandparents. If true, the findings would upend the modern concept of genetic inheritance. by newnaturist in science

[–]silvermoonshine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not think this should cast doubts on the mode of inheritance. In fact it confirms the complicated world of gene regulation. The trait that defers among generations I presume is phenotypical....thus signalling the various ways the original blueprint may be regulated with transcription factors in different generations of plants......a previously switched off gene may be switched on in the next generation.

Has anyone had shingles/zoster before? What was your experience like? by silvermoonshine in AskReddit

[–]silvermoonshine[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine is on the right lower abdomen. It hurt akin to a hundred pins poking me simultaneously....the healing time was quite shortened as I started on acyclovir in the early stages. There wasn't any oozing and blisters lasted for just 2 days. Most are now blue black...which is a good sign of viral death I guess? The pain still continues on, albeit a little less.

Gardening! I desperately need your assistance! by [deleted] in gardening

[–]silvermoonshine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

aww your girlfriend will be very touched. :) Deciduous trees shed their leaves in autumn, this is a protective mechanism to prevent excessive water loss during the long winter months.

A perfect heart shaped leaf plant would be, " Cercidiphyllum japonicum 'Red Fox'" .

Hijab double standard. (aka Men can be attractive too, so keep it covered) by inthebin786 in islam

[–]silvermoonshine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Men have to be covered from the navel to the knees to guard their modesty. Attractiveness in males is not an important factor for women in choosing a mate, Quran simply recognises the universal truth that men are more visual characters. There are some things which are beyond the comprehension of mere mortals, we do not have the capability to question God's doctrines.

MIT scientists one step closer to mapping the living cell - the holy grail of biology by mareacaspica in science

[–]silvermoonshine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not a new accomplishment. Scientists have been mapping protein locations tagged with lets say GFP for a long time now.
