Assuming that relatively large testes and polygamous mating are indicative of more intense sperm competition,  these results indicate that sperm length is related to the intensity of sperm competition in this clade of cichlids, as has been found previously in insects, birds, and mammals. and, just before that: Quote sperm length was significantly related to relative testis size translation: bigger really is better. now I understand all those emails ads I keep getting. seriously, though, that paper is a good read on the general issue of sperm competition relating to individual reproductive success in different mating systems. and it's free. -------------- "And the sea will grant each man new hope..." -CC

Some of the best ID literature is in places you’d least expect!

Meanwhile the stars and Harvard beckoned, but of what practical use could astronomy be? Here my mathematics professor came to the rescue. “If you feel a calling to pursue astronomy,” he counseled, “you should go for it. We can’t let the atheists take over any field.” I just feel there's something in that quote which might just, just mind you, have some bearing on the question of the relationship between ID and creationism. It's only a hunch, though. Bob -------------- It is fun to dip into the various threads to watch cluelessness at work in the hands of the confident exponent. - Soapy Sam (so say we all)

Mind you, as ID (and UD as its main proponent) are utterly and irrevocably finished as a marketable strategy, flogging a dead horse can pall after a while, hence the occasional random flagellation.

No, the Politeness Police locked Lenny up for a week because FTK was whining about the Big Bad Meanie who was Out To Get Her. Lucky gal. Of course I've had my moments with Dave. Speaking of which - here's a pullout not on UD: Quote NASA is an agency that knows a thing or two about climate change. As Griffin added: "We study global climate change, that is in our authorisation, we think we do it rather well. "I'm proud of that, but NASA is not an agency chartered to, quote, battle climate change." Such a clear statement that science accomplishment should carry primacy over policy advice is both welcome and overdue. Nonetheless, there is something worrying about one of Griffin's other statements, which said that "I have no doubt . . . that a trend of global warming exists". Griffin seems to be referring to human-caused global warming, but irrespective of that his opinion is unsupported by the evidence. So why are these global-warming skeptics contradicting each other? Oh, uh, there's no consensus in science. I'm learning. Coinkydinkily, Carter is a member of the right-wing think tank the Institute of Public Affairs and a founding member of its Australian Environment Foundation, a front group. All of which of course is just dumb luck. When it comes to global climate change, certain people are chance worshippers. -------------- Which came first: the shimmy, or the hip?
