Supersized Egg – Pity the Poor Chicken, OUCH

~ Pharmer

Supersized Hen Egg Had Another Egg Inside « CBS Dallas / Fort Worth.

There’s an Abelene, TX hen which is wishing for some benzocaine topical spray. She laid a supersized egg, weighing 145 grams. An average egg is 55 grams. When the big one was cracked open, it revealed the usual yolk and ovalbumin contents, and another whole egg inside.

A theory given in the news article, suggests that this is caused by unusual contractions driving an egg back into the ovary where it is surrounded by another egg, forming the nested arrangment.
Pharmer wonders if it has to do with a failure of the secondary polar body to degenerate after the last division forming the secondary oocyte, that leads to this unusual phenomenon.

Any ideas, egg lovers? supersize egg

Obama Using underage girls to shill for Taxpayer Funded Birth Control

~ Pharmer

Here’s an Obama ad abusing 6 and 10 year old sisters images to shill for tax payer funded birth control.

What if these girls grow up to understand the mechanisms of the birth control drugs, and the health liabilities? Without their consent, their images have been used in a giant birth control ad…… as though the fulfullment of their dreams is somehow connected to another government funded “freebie”. This is almost as bad as when Obama used his girls to shill for abortion when they were 6 and 9 years old.
