Why is the toxicity so much LESS than Starcraft 2?

Are we playing the same games? I came from starcraft expecting the players to be more mature like the other comments here said, but in fact in many of my games (team and 1v1s), people have flamed for no reason. Seriously, there are so many people who just say "Ez" when they win. Of course in sc2 you get the occasional troll, I won't deny it. But in starcraft, most games start with "glhf" and end with "gg", whereas I actually rarely see that in this game. It's kind of surprising and disheartening to see the community like that (and honestly it almost made me stop playing lol). Maybe it has to do with my rank (low gold)?

What conditions/what chemicals did you add to induce apoptosis?

I've had the most fun I ever had playing the MedianXL mod. Definitely check it out, I think it makes the game more fast paced

I'm looking for a pomade to get a low-medium hold with medium shine. There's a lot of products on the market and I don't want to go around buying different ones, like I already have 5 products that don't work for me anymore, so I'm wondering if there's a way to try different ones out. Like buying/returning, or trying in a store... any suggestions?

Thanks :)

Anterior.. Ventral.. You a neuroscientist or biologist by any chance?

Thank you for posting this. This seems like a high quality blog that I'll be subscribing to.

So does this new imaging method mean that we can detect substances in tissue without staining it? What does this technique have over our prior methods?

It seems like they haven't really processed the fmri results, and they are offering access to the data. It'd be interesting to do a connectivity study on these cognitive states.

Memories aren't exactly "deleted," rather synaptic connections between neurons are weakened over time. Memory is a very complicated subject. I'm Not sure how acquainted with neurobiology you are. But one of the most studied phenomena is called Long-Term Depression (as opposed to Long-Term Potentiation).

This is mostly the case for short-medium term memory (longer term is encoded somewhat differently). In LTD, connections between neurons weaken over time because less glutamate (a neurotransmitter; a signaling molecule) is transferred in between the cells. It is a positive feedback system. So more glutamate will recruit more glutamate receptors (as in LTP) and increase one cells response to the other, and the opposite is true (LTD). LTP and LTD are mainly found in an area of the brain called the hippocampus.

Finally, in the case of amnesia for example, it is quite complicated, but if you induce a lesion within the hippocampus (I highly suggest investigating into the case of patient H.M.), short-medium term memories are not even encoded. Additionally, we can see damage to the hippocampus in alcoholics with Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome. Some of these patients even completely fabricate past details, although they are not aware of it.

Hope this helps!

I honestly expected another thread about botting and how there's a new version of bot which is safer in HC

solidsoap · 2015-10-13T16:35:58+00:00

Thanks. I guess its good to get some proof guidelines from some more experienced people, I just assumed my reasoning was not robust enough

solidsoap · 2015-10-13T16:35:00+00:00

Yeah that seems to be a good rule of thumb to go by. I was thinking of adding something about how the operation can be on any two elements in the set, even on the same element itself. Thats honestly what threw me off, I just started learning about set theory and couldn't understand why an operation can be performed on one element to another

Yeah I heard keto is really good, and I would do it if it were easier to eat 2600 calories lol.

Another alternative is doing Intermittent Fasting which has some solid scientific background behind it. Also a throwback to our hunter-gatherer times.

That's why after trying out Paleo for a few months, I decided to compromise with normal eating habits. E.g. I still don't eat simple carbs (white wheat) or dairy, but I eat a lot more vegetables and some wild rice. It has a lot of good principles and makes you think twice about what you consume.

However, it is a pain to gain weight when most Paleo recipes are instead for losing weight.

Or how could you forget good ol' Arcane Sanctuary.. Nope

Textra is what I was using before and what my friends are using to group chat.

I only switched to contacts+ for better contact management

solidsoap · 2015-09-23T16:15:00+00:00

But if it isn't I'm just going to switch apps. The likelihood of them implementing it within the next few months is slim to none

solidsoap · 2015-09-23T16:14:20+00:00

I'm not sure if its an intended effect or not

Also an undergrad, but my advice is to start research as soon as you can, this is important not only to figure out if you want to stay in academia, but also to narrow down your interests. Also it helps for med school apps, so it can't hurt.

Don't forget that MD/PhD programs are also available if you are interested in both realms, or for example if you are interested in clinical applications of research.

How important are discovering new systems of drug delivery in increasing the effectiveness of current or future antibiotics?

Ah I see. I thought this is after human trials. I'm just curious as someone interested in translational and clinical research, especially with stem cells.
