Here is a link to an article on CNN where Scientist have been using the dye from blue M&M's to help repair/rebuild spinal cord injuries. The one major side effect from the treatment is that your skin turns blue for a period of time.

Hello my friends at BC

One Small Step For Man, One Giant Leap For Mankind", as said by Neil Armstrong 40 years ago today.

Has anyone else noticed a change in the way the voting box operates. Until recently, if I had not yet logged in, the box would say "Login" (or "Voted" if I had previously done so). Clicking on "Login" never worked because it took me off to an error message page, but I could get to the login place and back to vote quite easily.

There is an episode of the show "Mental" on the Fox Television network on a teenage girl who sets herself on fire because she was a boy who was forcibly changed to a girl because her mother wanted a girl and could not stand to look at her son.

I apologise for my earlier blunder.

You can see the whole story in my response to Angharad's Blog post.

Does anyone know a bit of Scots Gaelic?

I'm having trouble with a name: Ash Geo Mor, the name of a shallow cove, or possibly a sea stack, or skerry, near the village of Lybster in Caithness.

The Daily Mail in London is reporting that scientist's at Newcastle university have developed an artificial sperm, Raising the very real possibility in the future of a world without the need for men!... Having said that they do say that at present sperm can only be created from male embryo's so ruling out for the moment women becoming the supreme biological being...But you know what they say, Where there's a will there's a way!!

Just Interesting Information! Richard

Here is a link to an article that is about a woman who received ovary and fallopian tube transplant and is about to give birth. It will not be long hopefully that mtf transsexuals will be able to get this surgery and be able to have children also.

Not having been a member on Bigcloset for that long, I wonder if anyone can tell me has there ever been a vote to find out what readers here consider to be the best ever T.G story published here on Bigcloset ?

Although details are sketchy, it seems that the good officers of Texas have decided to raid a gay bar and arrest some patrons for public intoxication while said patrons were seated at the bar drinking, and on the anniversary of the Stonewall riots.

I was listening to DNR(Derek and Romaine) today and they were talking about this one place they were at during Columbus Pride. They spoke of it having great Ginger Ale, how it was made with fresh Ginger.
I had to call in and comment on how I can definitely feel that. I tried using powdered Ginger in this one recipe TWICE, the second time with more in it and I found it didn't cut it. I mean it just didn't have that snap you'd get with fresh Ginger. Maybe some of you will empathize, having used it before.

So, my nickname is Faraway, because I live half the world away from you, of course!

It turns out that snails, often confused with toads, are also well in advance in many scientific and social science explorations*, are prone to form male/male romantic attachments in which one partner eventually changes sex so they can settle down into normal married life with children.
