It was the day of the birthday party, and the husband and wife had invited everyone they knew. They’d spent the morning buying food — a sheet cake, jumbo hot dogs, ground beef, soda, chips — and were now standing around a picnic table covered with it all, along a long lake under a cloudless sky, hoping at least some people would show up to eat it.
Today was the first time both sides of their family were supposed to come together, something that hadn’t happened at their wedding four months before. On that day, not a single member of the husband’s family had attended — not his brothers, who’d called him a fool for marrying like this, and not his parents, who’d told him the relationship would only get him into trouble. Just about the only people who’d gone that day, and were here so far on this day, had been the people involved in the wedding itself.

Eric Holder, 29, of Los Angeles, is being sought by police.
Holder, a suspected gang member who knew Hussle, allegedly approached the rapper and two other men several times at the star’s Marathon Clothing store in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Los Angeles before engaging in a conversation with Hussle, Police Chief Michel Moore said at a news conference on Tuesday, declining to say what the conversation was about.
Holder then left the store, returned with a gun, walked up to Hussle and the two other men as they stood in the parking lot of the store and fired numerous shots, investigators said.

Parents should follow their smart financial advice — not just give it to their kids

Parents love offering unsolicited advice to their kids. That truism has long persisted, spanning generations and cultures, often to the chagrin of their children. But before parents offer tried-and-true nuggets of wisdom—especially when it comes to financial planning—they should take a moment to make sure they’ve been following that guidance themselves.
Financial circumstances constantly shift and require optimizations, and it’s always important to take a moment for self-reflection. Studies suggest that, if the consistent increases in life expectancy persist, centenarians may be common by 2100. The reliable pensions of the past have largely vanished, replaced by a myriad of employer-sponsored retirement plans. Additionally, voluntary benefit insurance plans offered through your employer can provide benefits and support when unexpected events threaten your livelihood and savings.
This added complexity has increased the importance of financial advisors, who help their clients set financial goals and select the right mix of employer-sponsored products (in addition to any other investment options) to help make those goals reality.

A More Humane Livestock Industry, Brought to You by Crispr

Hopes were running high for cow 401, and cow 401 serenely bore the weight of expectations. She entered the cattle chute obligingly, and as the vet searched her uterus, making full use of the plastic glove that covered his arm up to his shoulder, she uttered nary a moo. A week ago, Cow 401 and four other members of her experimental herd at UC Davis were in the early stages of pregnancy. But now, following a string of disappointing checkups, it was all down to her. Alison Van Eenennaam, the animal geneticist in charge of the proceedings, kept watch from off to one side, galoshes firmly planted in the damp manure, eyes fixed on a portable ultrasound monitor. After a few moments, the vet delivered his fifth and final diagnosis. “She’s not pregnant,” he said. Van Eenennaam looked up. “Ah, shit,” she muttered.
Cow 401 and her herdmates were the product of two and a half years of research, Van Eenennaam’s attempt to create a strain of gene-edited cattle specially suited to the needs of the beef industry. Had everything gone as planned, all the calves in this experiment would have been born male—physiologically, at least. Like humans, cattle carry two sex chromosomes; those born XX are female, and those born XY are male. But it isn’t the Y that makes the man. It’s a single gene, called SRY, that briefly flickers to life as an embryo grows and instructs it to develop male traits. Using CRISPR, Van Eenennaam’s team added a copy of SRY to the X chromosome too. That way, even if a cow was born genetically female, she’d be expected to appear male all the same. Since beef ranchers generally prefer males to females (more meat for the money), Van Eenennaam believed there could someday be a market for these Crispr’d animals.

Horn-free? Yup. Heat-tolerant? Sure. Flu-proof? Of course. Gene editing aims to make our food supply kinder and more efficient. But it’s struggling to leave the barn.

A BEAUTIFUL PERFORMANCE!
DANCING TO IRVING BERLIN IN RUSSIA.
The dancing was filmed on Moscow’s “overlook” in Sparrow Hills. Looking down from the “overlook” you see the largest stadium in Russia (140K capacity). The ski jump is for practice and training – if you make a mistake, you end up in the river below. The church at the end opposite to the ski jump is Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Church. The large building on the opposite side of the road beside the overlook is the Moscow State University and the top of the tall center tower has one of the Kremlin stars.
Try and not smile as you watch this – you will. It’s a nice, gentle clip. “Putting on the Ritz”, in Moscow, no less! What a crazy, delightful, ever changing world! Who could have thought that in 2012 young people in Moscow would put on a “flash mob” happening, dancing to an 83-year-old American song?
Sound ON! Enjoy…
