This Moment of Science will answer a question that must have been gnawing at you since you first noticed that human males have nipples. What genetic glitch left human males with female features?

Male nipples aren't exactly a genetic glitch: they are evidence of our developmental clock. In the early stages of life from conception until about 14 weeks, all human fetuses look the same, regardless of gender. At the tender age of 14 weeks post-fertilization , genetically-male fetuses begin to produce male hormones including testosterone. These hormones turn the androgynous fetus into a bouncing baby boy.

Here's where the developmental clock comes in. By 14 weeks, when the hormones turn on, the nipples have already formed. So, while our male fetus goes on to become a baby boy, he keeps his nipples, reminding all of us that people, male and female, started off the same way.

In most men, the nipples really don't change after this point, but some men can develop a condition called gynecomastia. In gynecomastia, the fatty tissue around the nipple develops and eventually appears similar to a female breast. This can occur whenever the testosterone level is lowered by medications, such as those that treat prostate cancer, and by natural hormonal changes due to obesity, adolescence or aging.

Luckily, most of us don't worry too much about male nipples, so men never have to worry about finding swimtrunks and a bikini top that fit.

um. thought you might like to know. i'm sure satisfied.

So.....

I approach the counter after a relaxing dinner spent alone reading and I hand the woman behind the register my ticket and she repeats the cost of the meal to me. I reach in my back pocket to find: nothing.

Panic. What do I tell this woman. I don't even know the word for wallet, let alone can I explain this situation. Fidget. Pass hands through hair. "Ugggggh....."

Eureeka! I reach into my bag to find this......

The reimbursement from my plane ticket I recieved today!

Jackie Chan is Fucking Awesome.

Wed, 08 Feb 2006 04:17:06 GMT

Whilst sitting next to a warm fireplace sipping tea this evening I stumbled upon an incredible realization: Jackie Chan is fucking awesome. Think about this people. Jackie Chan does nothing but kick peoples asses and jump off buildings. Let's be serious. Of course his movies are awful. Of course the acting is bad and the plots unbelievable. Of course the stunts are impractical and absurd. Does it matter? Honestly, kicking peoples asses and jumping off buildings is fucking cool.

Case study: tonights 8pm HBO exhibition of the 1998 Hong Kong action/adventure "Jackie Chan's Who Am I?" That's right. Jackie Chan is so fucking cool he puts his name in the title of his movies. In this movie, Jackie Chan, known as "Who am I" suffers amnesia after a helicopter crash. Soon he finds himself landed amidst a CIA conspiracy wherin noone can be trusted. So what does he do? He kicks asses and performs outrageous stunts. Example: Jackie Chan gets in a fight wearing clogs, saves a dog from certain doom, and in a rooftop climax scene slides down the wall what appears to be a near 40-50 story building. And talk about memorable quotes! Jackie Chan says, "I may have amnesia....but ahm nut stupid!"

What can we learn from this? Jackie Chan kicks fucking awesome ass.

Let's hear it for Mikes best post in ages. God bless you Jackie Chan.
