Ex-POTUS Pic of the Day: Not to be outdone on the cool POTUS front, Bill Clinton was spotted recently at a Monte Carlo casino posing for pictures with pr0n stars, including Brooklyn Lee (on the right), and Tasha Reign. Lee — who posted the pic on her Twitter account Wednesday — recently won an award for “Best Sex Scene” in Mission Asspossible. Reign’s film credits include Baby Got Boobs 8 and Farm Girls Gone Bad. The identity of the gal on the far left hasn’t been confirmed, but chances are…

Supercut of the Day: It really was inevitable:

You weren’t asking for this, but now it’s in your way: Our “Call Me Maybe” supercut video, featuring 75 of the most viral covers, lip dubs, dance numbers and artistic reinterpretations of the Carly Rae Jepsen jam that [Popdust] just dubbed the best song of 2012′s first half. If you thought the song was intoxicating before, just wait till you see it performed on accordian, lip synched by three shirtless dudes in a river, and danced to by an overzealous girl alone in a closed Burger King.

Genetics of the Beautiful “Glass Gem” Corn

Corn gone viral? You’re looking at an ear of a corn variety called “Glass Gem”, grown by Greg Schoen of Seeds Trust. This is real corn! How does it grow this way?

First you have to understand a few things about corn. Each corn kernel is actually a sort of unique plant. A corn plant’s male parts (the “tassels”) sit at the top of the stalk, and drop pollen downward. Unfertilized ears (the female parts) catch the pollen with the sticky ends of their corn silks. Each corn silk (I hate when that gets in my teeth) grabs a pollen grain, shuttles it allllllll the way down inside the ear, eventually creating one kernel for each pollen-silk-ovum combination. It’s one of the more interesting and inefficient breeding schemes I know of.

If you’ve taken genetics, you know that the parents’ genes will combine by chance, leading to certain ratios of inheritance in the offspring. This is the basis of Mendelian genetics (great Khan Academy video here).

With corn, we’ve simply carefully bred all the interestingness out of them. Native Americans were used to multi-colored corn, because corn plants held many varieties of color genes that could combine at random. Now all we are left with are one-color clones.

This “Glass Gem” corn is the other extreme of the spectrum, a combination of corn color hybrid genes and random pollination. It’s almost too pretty to eat!

Mycena family

Some mushrooms in the Mycena family are bioluminescent. This family contains many species, which are usually tiny, with a bell-shaped cap and thin stem. It is unknown what the purpose of the bioluminescence is.

There’s a helpful video on Ciscentrismsucks.tumblr.com on how to change your pronouns for anybody who’s lookin’ to. (http://ciscentrismsucks.tumblr.com/post/6065334634/if-anyone-is-looking-for-how-to-change-your-pronouns-to)

If you can’t read or see what the person is editing, here’s the written version:

1. Go to the ‘Basic Info’ section of your ‘About You’ page.

2. Right-click on the box that offers the “female” or “male” option of your sex, and click the option to “Inspect Element.”

3. Scroll to where the code deals with sex. There’s a formula saying “‘1’: female and ‘2’: male”. What you’ll want to do is right-click that whole line and opt to “Edit as HTML.”

4. When you get to that step, change the value of male to “0”, and change the word ‘male’ to whatever you want. (I did a smiley face).

4. You can close out of the code now. So, back in your ‘about you’ section, click on the option-box for female/male, and opt for whichever word you put inside your other option. 

5. Make sure you save! Good luck, and happy genderfucking.
