Over the summer, Erwin pondered this problem with two paleontologist friends, David Jablonski of the University of Chicago and James Valentine of the University of California, Berkeley. Primitive multicelled organisms like jellyfish, they reasoned, have three so-called homeotic homeobox genes, or Hox genes, which serve as the master controllers of embryonic development. Flatworms have four, arthropods like fruit flies have eight, and the primitive chordate Branchiostoma (formerly known as Amphioxus) has 10. So around 550 million years ago, Erwin and the others believe, some wormlike creature expanded its Hox cluster, bringing the number of genes up to six. Then...
Some people are capable--or think themselves Capable--of preventing the unsavory behavior they see in movies or hear about in songs from tainting their interactions with others. But for every enlightened citizen capable of making such careful distinctions, there are ten less enlightened citizens who cannot. Jennifer Jablonski, a 14-yearold from Pittsburgh, told the Times interviewer about her older brother, who behaves very differently towards her since he started listening to rap music and watching R-rated movies. "He changed," she said. "Just from listening to rap, he is starting to use bad words. He calls...

...create approximations of dinosaurs and used frog DNA to fill in the genetic code, Cano's team claims to have revived the exact ancient organism, totally intact. The reactions from other scientists ranged from skepticism to astonishment and delight. "Wow!" exclaimed University of Chicago paleontologist David Jablonski. "It's marvelous to be able to reconstitute an organism from that long...
