Same as the old ERV, only in fancy new digs.

In the past two weeks I have:
1-- Defended my dissertation
Thanks in part to the extra experience I got giving presentations during my graduate student career, this was not a big deal for me. I rather enjoyed it, but I wish I had more time (I 'shortened' my presentation to 73 slides. :-/ ).
2--…
Hepatitis B is my favorite non-retrovirus.
Why?
Because its a retrovirus :-D
Heres another reason for me to love it-- Its viral family, Hepadnaviridae, inserted themselves into bird genomes 19 million years ago.
Genomic Fossils Calibrate the Long-Term Evolution of Hepadnaviruses

On ERV, Abbie Smith writes “Malaria kills 1.24 million people a year. Mostly babies under 5 years old.” Malaria, although carried by mosquitoes, is caused by a single-celled protist which infects the liver and goes on to parasitize red blood cells. Now, a little genetic engineering could put a stop…
I write about lots of things on ERV, but I didnt anticipate ever getting to the point where I can write new blog posts on new publications by cutting and pasting from old blog posts on old papers...
Lots of news outlets have been talking about this new paper:
Impact of HLA-driven HIV adaptation on…
Scienceblogs is sabotaging all of the scientists who use other systems.
First PZ had to switch, now ERV. They're growing into an evil monopoly as a part of "Big Science." Stein told ya about Big Science, and you didn't listen.
On the plus side, things sure ran smoother after PZ switched.

My list of debunkings of Michael Behe's The Edge of Evolution had a whole lot of entries from the old ERV. I hope they can get resuscitated.

Any chance there was some questionable activity in the blogger version of ERV's disappearance?

Either way, congrats ERV in your assimilation.
So, she doesn't use apostrophes, because she's too lazy, and she's PROUD of that?
NEXT.
Matt:
'NEXT.' is not a full sentence or proper capitalization. You are not worthy of posting. Please go away.
Hey, if there are any diggers here, please help spread the word!

ScienceBorgs: Resistance is futile. You will assimilated.
I'll add ERV to this list. Waiting for the reason for the deletion to become clear but it looks like google isn't a fan of free speech. Also adding a chemist who was excommunicated from the Orthodox Presbyterian sect for accepting evolution. Anyone know any other victims, post it.
Hello!
raven's quote of Blake Stacey's list of harrassed teachers of evolution:
Does anyone know where this took place? I mean, 'UT Permian' doesn't tell us much, as Utah is so backward practically all of it is in the Permian.
U. of Texas, Permian Basin branch.
Google it or Blake's blog has links to the original sources.
It will be good to see Abbie over here. I'm betting Dembski's Single Malt Bottle of scotch that she will be a top 5 traffic- blogger here before Dembski gets a new sweater - which should be less than 6 months.
ps: Don't anyone tell Creo-Tard William Wallace!
ERV? Earth Return Vehicle?
Matt:
It seems to me that refusing to use apostrophes from the third grade to grad school would require a heck of a lot more effort than just using them.
(And, yes, if you're going to play grammar police, please use proper calitalization and sentence structure. Thank you.)
confused:
Endogenous Retrovirus
Ah - I did wonder when the clever lass'd be inducted.
Does anyone else have trouble picking up her RSS?
damn, i thought it was erogenous retrovirus...
Saaaaaaah-freakin'-weeeeeet!
It's about time ERV found her lovely ways over to the hive, and I am definitely looking forward to reading what she's got to say.
re #1: "On the plus side, things sure ran smoother after PZ switched.
So Glen D, you're saying Scienceblogs made the brains run on time?
