Actor Michael J. Fox delivered the keynote address to the 2007 BIO International Convention, being held in Boston Monday through Wednesday. The convention drew 20000 scientists, industry leaders and government officials to see the latest products and discuss progress in efforts to: • find cures for major diseases, • find good substitutes for oil-based plastics and fuels, • and provide disease-resistant, genetically engineered crops and cloned animals to improve food supplies. Before Fox’s address, the Biotechnology Institute announced this year’s winners of the BioGENEius awards. The top prize went to Ted Paranjothy, Fort Richmond Collegiate, Winnipeg Manitoba. Second place went to Tracy Fuad of the Breck School, Golden Valley, Minnesota, followed by Tejal Naik of the Charter School, Wilmington, Delaware.

Michael J. Fox has Parkinson’s

July 21st, 2010
pegasusepsilon asked:


16 second clip of Family Guy, Season 6, Episode 12, Long John Peter. Fair use, etc. For everyone bawling about how “IT’S NOT FUNNY!”, get over your overblown sense of propriety and learn that a tragedy can be made into comedy, and the fact that we’re free to do that is what makes our bill of rights so important. And if you don’t enjoy freedom of expression in whatever desert “country” you live in, I’m sorry for you and your children. Perhaps you should riot on their behalf. tl;dr: If you don’t think it’s funny, fine. Complain to whoever linked you, and don’t post any comments. I’ll delete them anyway.
