Boom! Hok! A Monkey Language Is Deciphered

Good stuff. Would have been better if he actually had some videos/ audios to go with it. Oh wait, they're probably there in the PNAS paper, otherwise that paper wouldn't have got published. Never mind.
Boring article about marriage and how to "keep it alive" (only read the first couple of paragraphs... who knows, maybe it gets better): http://www.nytimes.com/2009/12/06/magazine/06marriage-t.html?em
And... an article about my lab!!! http://www.upmc.com/MediaRelations/NewsReleases/2009/Pages/GSPH-Microbicides-Grant.aspx
Alas, WE don't see much of the 7.2 million dollars. These figures of grant monies are terribly misleading. A good chunk is eaten up by each of the universities, then our lab only gets a fifth of the amount (because there are 4 other labs on the grant) and on top of that, there are various restrictions as to how that money can be used. But still... it's always nice to see one's PI being interviewed and quoted, and it's always nice to know that he's bringing in the bucks. When I grow up, I want to be just like Dr.G- with fingers in many pies :p
