Your sex life

Pick up the nearest book to you (not a magazine) and turn to page 45.

The first complete sentence describes your sex life in 2013.

The Apache configuration file (httpd.conf) will often contain application-tuned rules (such as connections, keepalives, special modules) and even application logic (rewrite rules, HTTP auth configs, vhosts), so keeping it in source control alongside your application source code makes a lot of sense.

I'll be at work when I could be having sex. Fits.

The nearest book to me is a 16 page long childs board book. Figures.

Grim... · **Posted:** Thu May 09, 2013 21:48

I'd say that fits. You could probably choose the nearest one with 45 or more pages, though.

If you need to change lane, first use your mirrors and if necessary take a quick sideways glance to make sure you will not force another road user to change course or speed.

I can think of few situations where I'd want to do that. Why not just double stop them?

S'all about generating transgenics. A lot of it is trying to replicate the endogenous expression pattern of a particular locus, but using a reporter for visualisation. It's a question of where it is expressed, when, how much, in response to such and such etc.

Quite often there are regulatory elements in the downstream area, even quite far away.

Link me do? Please?

Is it "Tales of unease"?

It be here.

Before I checked, I had an inkling it might be Conan Doyle, as the line quoted sounded a bit Sherlock Holmes-ey.

Agent Starling · **Joined:** 8th Apr, 2008 **Posts:** 1701

Saying that... When doing another Google, that story appears to, er, appear, in another book too.

We need Zardoz to confirm the correct one here I think.
