If I was truly convinced with Aristotle’s concept of eudaimonia, or happiness, I would agree with Murphy; he presents a significantly more moral case than Cahn does. However, I have always been aware of the difference between happiness and joy. Happiness is a temporary, often fleeting concept that most people experience every day. Joy, however, is much more permanent than happiness. If the immoral man presented in the first example said that he was happy, he might very well have been happy. However, I doubt that he has any sense of joy in his life, nor will he ever experience it. Based on what I understand of Aristotle’s concept, I would retranslate eudaimonia as joy rather than simple happiness. Murphy also makes an excellent point when he says, “[the man] is attached to temporal values that are vulnerable – e.g., dependent on the responses of others. Since these are ultimately out of his control, must he not consciously feel or repress fear – a fear that may not be compatible with happiness?” (Cahn 66).

There are three different types of probes used; locus specific probes, centromeric repeat probes, and whole chromosome probes. The locus specific probes deal with a very specific portion of the chromosome. It is often used to isolate a certain part of the gene in order to see on which part of the chromosome it is. Centromeric repeat probes, or alphoid probes, deal with repetitive sequences in the middle of each chromosome. This particular technique is often used to find out if the person has the correct number of chromosomes, and can also be used with the locus specific probes. The third type of probe, the whole chromosome probe, is a group of smaller probes which bind to a certain sequence along the chromosome. These small probes label parts of the chromosome in its own color, allowing the researcher to see a full color map of the chromosome. This map is called a spectral karyotype and is often used to see chromosomal abnormalities or mutations (NHGRI 2007).

can u pls explain the "you have 12 apples" post i can't figure out what it means and I'm losing my mind ??

this post

uh...it’s like a math problem. you have 12 apples, you give your girlfriend six apples, so the technically correct answer would be you have six apples remaining; however, clarke is focusing on the fact that she has a girlfriend in this scenario, on account of how her previous girlfriend.....died..................
