Question for Michael Bay

So, after watching The Island I have a rather strange question...

1) I propose a situation that could occur assuming that humans could theoretically create "duplicate" copies of themselves that could be harvested for organs when needed. Let's just say that I am a very wealthy human in my 30s who has already had a harvestable copy of myself made. Now, suddenly I contract AIDS and there is no cure for AIDS. So, under these circumstances what good does my "duplicate" do for me? Essentially, if I contract a degenerative disease like AIDS that affects my immune system, can my "duplicate" help me in any way?

So Lost...


Biology Blog written at 8:15

So... I have not done a biology blog in like 4 weeks. Actually, I haven't done one in 8 days.

Anyways, last class we all took turns presenting our cures for cancer and this took around 15 minutes. It didn't take that long because there were only 16 kids in our class. 

So now for the next 2-3 classes we will be finishing up a magnificent film called The Island. The film has been pretty good so far...but Michael Bay will probably ruin it...or maybe just bring in some Transformers or something...No...I can think of at least 42 ways for him to ruin it...


Anyways, so far in this movie I am totally LOST

Cancer Sucks

Honors Biology Blog 
Cancer Sucks

So, the first semeseter has officially come to a close and we are preparing to embark into new biological fields. The first topic that we will cover in 2014 will be that of cancer. 

So far we have learned about different form of cancer and how cancer affects the cells and destroys the human body.

We are currently working on a 6-8 page research paper that revolves around a certain type of cancer. This paper is proving to be extremely difficult and only time will tell if I actually manage to complete it.
