Were it that easy. The illustration involves an ice cave that gradually morphs into dermal layers (our drug is for neuropathic pain). The entire campaign would need to be scratched.
I like our new Marketing Director, so I don't want to cause problems. Today is my first day back in the office (been out sick) and the moment she spotted me she was like, "hey you trouble-maker, why'd you go an look up Polar Bear hibernation?" very friendly and I said, "I didn't have to look it up. It's pretty widely known." And she just laughed.
I tried to read The Happy Hooker when I was about 10, but got bored. I read Emmanuelle (the movie version with pictures) and Candy by about age 8. My parents never told me I couldn't read any of their books, but sometime before I turned 12 they'd done a sweep and most of
those books
had disappeared. Which was a shame, because I was ready to impress my friends.
Still, when I found The Kama Sutra and the book on Tantric sex in their collection, my father was very "So what?" about me reading them, this many years before mine own puberty. 15 years after that *I* had to explain Tantric sex to my mother, which was multiply embarassing.
1) this is going around our team right now. The only thing they left out is that "Everything has to be on the homepage or no one will find it!" [link]
2) I am in love with my boss right now. Someone spilled the beans about a publishing portal going up to departments outside of ours which they're taking to mean an all access CMS. Her email was basically "IT WILL NEVER BE THAT! PLEASE CONTINUE TO FUNCTION AS NORMAL (whatever that is anyway).
3) I love Wuthering Heights as well, but in a Buffy/Angelus sort of way and certainly never thought that was an example of how relationships should function. Of course Heathcliff is a dick all over the place and Cathy's rather passive about it-so maybe that's what Mr. West wants?
4) The only thing my parents ever tried to censor me from reading was mom not wanting to buy me the more obscure Ayn Rand. She needn't have worried. I eventually grew up.
My dad took my sister and I to see Hair when it came out when we asked him to--sis was 15, I was 13. I don't know what he thought it'd be, but I know he was rather shocked to hear songs like "Sodomy" and see the full frontal nudity on screen.
So... ita's dad read the Tantric sex book, but her mom didn't know what it was?
I can just imagine:
ita's mom: What are you doing?
ita's dad: Nothin'....

sighhhhh
You could make it a cave bear! If only Ayla had invented a drug for neuropathic pain they'd still be with us today.

And Jondalar could grace us all with his "woman maker"!!!
"WE are the ones who make the decisions regarding what > Erin is capable of reading. WE have discussed material in books with her. WE decide what she can or cannot read. And WE have decided she is capable of reading this book."
The library wants to take the above away from me, apparently.
No, the library wants that discussion to be between you and her, without the library as an intermediary. Just because you and your daughter can talk about books does not mean that all parents can.
I was often in trouble for reading, although as I got older I refined my skills in secretly reading through every class.
Boris Vallejo maybe?

This is cool:
Organovo Has Its First Commercial 3D Bioprinter
Need a new kidney? We’ll just take some of your blood and in about six weeks grow you a new one. That’s the promise of 3D bioprinting and one of the companies on the forefront of the technology just took a step closer to make it a reality. Organovo developed a research prototype of a bioprinter capable of producing very basic tissues like blood vessels. According to the recent press release, Invetech, Organovo’s strategic partner, will be providing the company with commercial versions of their device in 2010 to 2011. While it is still limited to simple tissue structures (full organs are a long ways off), Organovo plans to deliver the printers to various research institutions interested in organ and tissue production. Working with these institutions, Organovo hopes to one day progress to creating a system that can print organs as easily as other 3D printers print plastic figurines.
