Unravelling mysteries of ancient human migrations

THE HINDU
Thursday, Aug 23, 2007

Where did humans originate and how did they populate the
entire globe? Scientists may finally be able to answer
these fundamental questions when they have enough DNA
samples from people all over the world.

The Genographic Project attempts to trace the ancient
journey of man through the genetic analysis of present-day
populations on every continent. This nonprofit, five-year
research partnership of National Geographic and IBM is led
by geneticist Dr. Spencer Wells with support from the Waitt
Family Foundation.

India is one of the ten international centres for this
world-spanning project. A state-of-the-art facility
dedicated for genographic work was established at the
Madurai Kamaraj University this July. Vijaysree Venkatraman
interviewed Dr. Ramasamy Pitchappan, Regional Director of
Genographic Project, India.

I went to a party with a few friends the other day

I think they had an okay time. I think they got a little bored later in the
party. (It did kinda fizzle out, but I still had a great time, because. I
had
a lot of people to talk to )

I came home drank a beer, ate some popcorn and watched Serial Mom til 3 am.
It was on usa network. That continued the Baltimore theme. I think that
movie is hilarious. (They went to bed as soon as we got back)

one friend loaded up on Kripsy Kremes this morning before I took them to the
airport.
She says Pittsburgh will get a kispy kreme in the fall.

And here's what I've got
Well didn't I think you would always love me
And didn't I want you to take care of me baby"--kate voegele, chicgo--
