Now on ScienceBlogs: Fast food logos unconsciously trigger fast behaviour
The Egyptian goddess Isis was celebrated as the ideal wife and mother. The blogger known as Dr. Isis has some fancy-sounding degrees and is a physiologist at a major research university working on some terribly impressive stuff. She blogs about balancing her research career with the demands of raising small children, how to succeed as a woman in academia, and anything else she finds interesting. Also, she blogs about shoes. In fact, she blogs a lot about shoes.
...And behold, he raised the motherfucking Jameson on high as Isis bedecked her feet in glory, and the masses were sated. -- The Holy Gospel According to PhysioProf

As I begin to write this I am remembering that there is beer in the basement fridge. That's good, because I think I need one. Dr. Isis is not excelling at motherhood right now. At least my science is really...
