In bug 544999 and bug 546098 were realized new icons for toolbar. It's part of Firefox 4 theme. New icons look good for me in default mode but when you change mode to "icon nad text" they don't look good.
You mean too wide?
To ugly actually. they don't fit in with the rest of the browser at all.
they would look alot better flatter.
I think we should remove the button look completely, unless you are hovering the button.
No other Windows application displays the border of toolbar buttons (with very few exceptions). I think we can let the border of the back/forward button everytime visible, but other buttons' backgrounds should be hidden.
It currently looks very cluttered if you have many toolbar buttons.
After a bit of usage, the border also somewhat appears on plugin toolbar buttons as well making them appear very wrong as well.
The mockups with the border just around the button icon with the text outside of it look really nice. I can't find it to link to though.
One mockup is here on the bottom right:
Sorry, it's not clear to me what the intended resolution to this bug is for "Icons and Text". Would it be possible to get some clarification? Thanks.
Hi guys.
Can you please answer to Anthony's request in comment7?
I need the clarification in order to verify this.
Created attachment 564484 [details]
7 (left) vs 8 (right)
The resolution was removing the bubble appearance of the buttons unless hovered, the glow affect was also removed during hover as it made icons hard to read when certain persona's were applied
the Home button in the screenshot has my cursor on it, don't know why the cursor failed to show in the screenshot

For me current solution is fine. My original report was about look which looked ugly.
Based on Comment 9 setting resolution to VERIFIED FIXED.
Verified on Windows Vista using the latest Nightly, latest Aurora and Firefox 8 Beta 2. The bubble appearance of the button and the glow effect were removed.

The Book Wars
Feb. 3rd, 2010 | 10:21 am
location: stomping in my writing room
mood: ticked-off
music: stomping of my feet
I am on the outside of the book wars, and a writer, so my viewpoint is colored by how the debacle is affecting my future. That said, I do have opinions. I always do, even when I can see both sides. (I am, of course, open to new ideas, more info, and open debate!)
Long ago, books were hidebound for a reason – so they would last. But the makers of the books are now hidebound too, and stuck in the old ways, in the old business model. The market and world are changing fast, and the publishers were not ready for that to happen. They—and we writers—are losing.
Old business model, established after the great depression to get the economy moving in the book business again was:
Writer writes,
Editors buy and edit
Publishers publish books and *set prices for their product*
Distributors buy books
Books are shipped to distributors
Brick and mortar stores buy from distributors
Books are shipped to stores
Brick and mortar stores display books
Public buys from brick and mortar stores
Left over books are charged back to the publisher and destroyed or shipped everywhere and resold
The pieces of the pie were very tiny, and the process was *not* efficient or green.
Today, Amazon, an online *bookstore*, the big chains, and the superstores that sell everything (including books) want a bigger piece of the pie. Because the pie is only so big, it means cutting out some middle men. They want to set the price points themselves, cut out the distributor, and sell to the public. They have also been testing the waters to publish the books. (Oy… If you thought crappy books were making it onto the market already…)
So we have a book war.
My opinion?
Both sides are both wrong.
McM/Tor was stupid to set prices so high, wanting more of the pie.
Amazon is trying to be a store-distributor-and now publisher and wants ALL the pie.
And the writer is stuck in the middle with less and less.
In my opinion, the market has changed so drastically with the electronic age, and the superstore, super-chain age, that the old business model no longer works. And the publishers could fix that. They could, but they won't.
Publishers, if they would, could take the entire process out of the hands of the distributors and stores and do it ALL! All they would need to do is agree to one e-reader, one software format, one site to show the public. Then they could set their own price points and they would be in direct competition with each other, but *in charge* of that competition.
Instead, a third party is still in charge. Will the publishers jump on the wagon and change things to their own advantage? No They have been divided and conquered. And we all suffer.
More comments? Another take on the issue. Believe me, I'd love to be wrong!

It is starting out to be an interesting week, with lots of really nice reviews on Skinwalker. I am excited -- in a nail-biting, hopeful way -- that sales will be generated by the reviews. I really love this character and want to stay in print with her. (chewing on nails...)
Tomorrow (June 23) I am *all day* at BittenByBooks.Com. Some fans have asked where they can see my jewelry, and so I'll be giving away jewelry during the all day blog-fest, along with 8 advance, uncorrected, copies of the novel. ROC only printed a couple hundred of them, so they will be rare.
Come by, see the interview, and ask questions. I'll be there off and on for 24 hours!!!!

I am home!
My AKA Gwen Hunter won the RT award!!!!!!!! How cool is that! Sleep Softly was the best in its category for 2008! The awaard ceremony was fun and funny and lasted exactly as long as it should have. Whoowhoo!
I missed my mattress, my kitchen, fresh veggies, my pantry (hate to cook with so few condiments and I never take enough in the RV). LOL. The things we miss on the road.... Of course we vacated while traveling.
Here's a recap of one morning after the event...
Once I got over my usual panic at trying to use a snorkel (which activates my hidden, challenged, oft-confronted, always defied, but always returning fears of drowning) I swam with the manatees. They came to us for play. Wild animals wanting to be near humans. So weird. They are gentle and amazing. And they are HUGE BTW!
First sighting and swim was just after dawn when they are still sleepy and lazy and even the adults are in a good mood. There were four in a mating pod, three males wooing a female at dawn, but they wanted a good morning scratch under their fins and throats and along their bellies (the hubby said, "Well, who doesn't…") before they started in on amorous foreplay. One of them wrapped fins around hubby and looked him right in the eyes and hugged him. Had to be the lady manatee, and I can't say I blame her.
They got tired of us after a while and they left, swimming after me (which was weird because I was just off by myself at that point swimming.) They rose up under me one at time in a long line, scooting their bodies along mine as we swam. It was … bizarre. The dive guide was yelling, "Did they swim with you???" And I was gasping, "Yeah, they did. It was awesome! It was freaky but it was awesome."
Then we found a playful 2 yr juvenile in a different location. It was six feet long. Mama manatee (like 12 feet long) checked us out, decided we were okay to baby-sit her baby, and left him with us for over an hour. She went off to eat. Seriously. Baby would swim after us rolling over and over and asking to bump us or for scratching. He'd get up in a diver's face and study him. Then gently tap faces.
Lastly, we went to one of the springheads for the Crystal River and swam (fins and snorkels) hard upstream into crystal clear water to the Three Sisters Spring Head which is in a…well, a grotto buried in the swamp. Here we swam with the cormorants. Okay – that's my morning. And yes it is unbelievable. Just freaking wonderful. I loved it!
Anyone want to swim with the manatees in Florida, I recommend Bird's Underwater in Crystal Bay. I'll be putting up a video of the manatee event (I hope) soon.
Great people!

location: not where I want to be!
mood: happy
music: river gurgling and rushing
I am home again after a day on the river and a weekend at the lab. It was really wonderful. [The river not the lab. Labs are just stinky, dirty, (no matter how you clean them) windowless, places full of blood, poop, pee and ... well, it's not a fun place, but I love it anyway. I've been called contrary. Wonder why?]
The river was flowing fast and hard and we were able to take the little byways and side runs through tiny quirky channels. There were 4 of us, Hubby, Ralph Altman, my bro Benson Prater and moi. We laughed and chatted and paddled and had a wonderful time. Ralph is a long time paddler and he is so wonderful to have around becasue he is so skilled and, like a lot of older paddlers, he is calm in any situation. Bro Benson flipped in a side channel current that was sweeping him into whirlpool and up under a downed tree. Not a big current or a big tree mind you, not dangerous, but it was tricky. Benson didn't panic, Ralph talked him out and was there to rescue boat and gear. And we all had a good laugh.
I went over on the same spot I always go over on. They kindly have named the rapid after me. (sigh) And it was cooooold! But it was grand. A really grand day! I have to write a book about a river mage who has a boat...
PS -- Yes, I got a lot of work done polishing Blood Cross!

All kidding aside, I have a deadline for BLOOD CROSS, book two in the Jane Yellowrock, Skinwalker series due on Ap. 15. I have been a writing fool, turning out 46 pages this week. Yes, I did get a bit of rest, running the Catawba River from the dam to the RiverPark on Tuesday, sitting with a sick friend on Monday. For the next 19 days I will writing like fool. And I LOVE this character! Today's favorite line?
"Card?" Troll asked. A man of few words. I liked him already. My new best pal. With two gloved fingers, I unzipped my leather jacket, fished a business card from an inside pocket, and extended it to him. It read jane yellowrock, have stakes will travel. Vamp killing is a bloody business. I had discovered that a little humor went a long way to making it all bearable.

The mechanisms by which the cardiac myocyte (CM) senses mechanical changes and converts it to biochemical and functional effects, are poorly understood. Two areas within the CM that appear critical for proper mechanotransduction are the costamere with its resident integrins (ITGs), and caveolae, flask-shaped membrane invaginations with associated Caveolin (Cav) proteins. We and others have begun to show the importance of CM ITGs and Cav proteins in transducing mechanical signals, and that reduced expression and/ or mutation of ITGs and Cav3 can cause cardiomyopathies. How ?1 ITGs and Cav-3 functionally interact and by what mechanisms their coordinated responses transduce mechanical signals in the CM are unknown. We have generated ?1 ITG CM-specific knockout (KO) (termed ?1cKO), Cav-3KO and CM-specific ITG and Cav-3 transgenic (Tg) mouse models. Our preliminary data shows that ?1 ITG and Cav-3 co-localize and co-immunoprecipitate in the adult CM and that increased expression of ITGs and Cav-3 proteins in CMs can both preserve myocardial function when the heart is challenged with an increased mechanical load. Based on this data, we formulated our overall hypotheses that: A) ?1 ITGs and Cav-3 have cooperative properties in organization of proteins required for CM mechanotransduction and B) that increased expression of both of these proteins in the CM will protect the heart challenged with an increased hemodynamic load from HF. We will pursue this with 3 aims using loss and gain of function approaches: 1) Determine roles of ?1 ITGs and caveolin-3 in mechanotransductive responses of the myocardium by use of Cav3 null and ?1 ITG cardiac myocyte specific knockout mice alone, or in combination. We will evaluate how acute and chronic mechanically mediated signals are altered when ITGs, Cav-3 or both proteins are lost from the CM and how loss of these proteins modifies the remodeling process as the heart hypertrophies and evolves towards a HF phenotype. 2) Define the interactions which direct cooperative mechanical signaling of cardiomyocyte ?1 ITG and Cav-3. Direct interactions between ITGs and Cav3, with costameric and cytoskeletal proteins will be assessed. Proteomics will then identify novel proteins which interact with ITGs or Cav3, and how proteins in the caveolar and non-caveolar biochemical fraction of the CM change with hemodynamic challenge. 3) Determine how Tg overexpression of Cav-3 and/ or ??1 ITGs alters mechanical responses, and delays or protects the heart from cardiac failure in the face of hypertrophic induction. This will allow us to directl test the potential therapeutic roles of Cav3 and ?1 ITGs in the mechanically challenged myocardium. Clinical Significance: HF of varied causes is found in a large number of patients, necessitating frequent inpatient and outpatient care. Identification of root causes of cardiac dysfunction and importantly, studies which could lead to novel therapeutics of this common disease, are essential, and will be the focus of this proposal.
This proposal aims to advance our understanding of how the heart responds to excessive mechanical load, a process that frequently can lead to heart dysfunction. Studies in the grant will focus on two protein families, integrins and caveolins, which we propose both act as important modulators of this process. We will explore how these proteins function in the heart and if they may be used as novel therapies to prevent heart failure.

Cinematographer Boyd Estus talks about filming the Pioneer Zephyr exhibit at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago and the joys of shooting historical documentaries.
Transcript from interview with Boyd Estus:
Well, the streamline train in particular was a sort of major shift in train technology, and it also has all these sort of things that spin off it -- the whole design movement, the streamline design movement. And it was a great leap forward in technology. It speeded things up, it cost much less money and at that point it saved, coming out of the depression, it saved the train industry.
There are two different streamliners that were the original two. There's the Union Pacific one, and then the Zephyr, which started in that area in Chicago. And there are not many of either of those still in any shape at all to be seen, so we had to be able to tell the story through archival footage which is fairly good, and through places that either -- or objects that somehow reflect off of that. And so in Omaha for instance, there's a train station that was a major stop on one of the streamline runs, and it's now a museum. And we were able to do moves and camera moves and overlays in there that sort of evoked that period, what it was like to ride those trains. In Chicago, at the Museum of Science and Industry, we were trying to look closely at one of these trains and see exactly what the textures were, and the surfaces, and so on.
We wanted the train, first of all, to look good, to look luscious, you know, it is in fact the very first shot in the film. So it had to sell the idea of the train as a very special thing, and we were basically treating the train more as an object than a piece of transportation on a track.
Any shiny surface like that tends not to show up very much in the image unless you have an illuminated surface that it's reflecting because at one level it's not there. It's only reflecting what's around it. A mirror is the ultimate example of that. And what that means in practice is you have to have very large illuminated surfaces around the object to bounce back so that when you look at the object you're seeing that illuminated surface behind.
Well, the issue in Chicago was scale. The train's very large and the space that it's in is extremely constricted, and the only main space was off the front end of the train. The alleyway to the side where the parking garage was had glass walls, and we were able to put frosted material on those walls and backlight so we could extend our light sources down the side of the train.
There are two joys in this job. One is the craft or art that you're doing. And the other is you get to learn about things and be places you'd never have the opportunity to do. And especially in a show like AMERICAN EXPERIENCE where the things that you -- there's no way to meet these people and often to see things without being there on a film shoot.
Although fleets of these high speed trains crisscrossed the country by the 1940s, their success was short-lived. The dramatic story of the streamliners is one of remarkable achievements and opportunities lost.

Facing the same door after intermission, I saw one of the coolest cats stroll through. With cheers, applause, love and happiness, Mr. Ornette Coleman waltzed in with a blue suit, a lid with pork and pie and a smile that said; Hello, thank you very much, my name is Ornette Coleman and I came to play! Maybe there were many who shared my sentiment for the underdog avant guard jazz musician. Responsible for creations with the drive and tenacity to make people either frown, smile or ponder, "Where in life does this music fit for me?" Well, if your ears are open, there is a path that leads straight to the heart. From the first note, the statements were made and court was in session. Judgment day: Kerry, Bush or Ornette Coleman. You remember the feeling you had earlier this month when you did not know what would happen. Today, Ornette was on the podium and he communicated with fire and desire for the music to be heard. This was such a total contrast from the first set. World be free was the key with lessons and expressions flowing freely from a trilogy of instruments. The warm up is over and the game is ready to begin!
My hope is that everyone had their big ears on because that is a prerequisite for the message of the music. Now, the music was big but, Ornette was very humble playing it. It flowed with such ease from tenor, violin and trumpet and his presence gave you a feeling of experiencing music as it was some 40 to 50 years ago when jazz was free and the masses sought out the music to understand it. Quite a difference from the modern day imposters who lead the sheep into believing that jazz can be smooth as waves or quiet like a storm. Artistic types wondered while bureaucrats blunder, "Why, That's Not Jazz". My question is where did you get your definition of jazz? The definition of jazz comes from listening to the music and yourself, not to what others tell you it should be. Believer or non-believer, the choice is yours.
Ornette is a part of a culture that spoke their own language musically and made their voice be heard, no matter what people thought. Just like back in the day, there are those who hate and those who appreciate. But, one thing that can't be denied is the powerful energetic passionate expression that took over the walls of the Disney Concert Hall. The players were in a diamond formation with the powerhouse Denardo Coleman, encased behind a sound barrier on drums, playing so fast that sometimes, both of his arms looked like a blur. On the east and west points of the precious stone were two acoustic bass players Greg Cohen workin' the bow and Tom Falanga plucking the bottom. This concept of two basses is quite a lovely perspective on the music. This is like a play where four stories are going on in different scenarios but, each has a common denominator and they are all related. It can be modal and never ending and then all of a sudden, it's done. Forget about the resolve. I would not quite call it a symphony but, the music theory can be synonymous. The best of free artistic expression elaborately plotted and planned to make since and not make since at the same time, an oxymoron of jazz music.
Oh yes, they clap politely, but when the time was right it was, "Come on honey, I can't take any more of this, let's go". Yes, that's right, leave us all thee of little faith and no comprehension, the bedtime hour doth approach rapidly. And off they went in droves. It was quite a sight to see but, just think of all the many years that Ornette has watched this behavior while holding his horn on stage. What must he think and yet, he remains and continues to deliver jazz music because he stands for artistic expression. They are creations from above so it has to be right. What must it feel like to be an icon of the music that is misunderstood by many while loved and respected by the musical minority. Is Jazz the small pond? I would certainly hope not. Well, those who remained cheered extra loud to compensate for those who vacated the premise much too early. It was almost like boiling out the impurities leaving the clean pure refreshing vitamins and minerals for those who appreciate eating right; a healthy dose of music for the soul. Ornette is a cat who has been laying down beauty for years and still seems to be misunderstood. All that really matters is that he continues on his path to reach his destination and that we are still invited to go along for the ride.
I am such a big fan of the bow. I don't think that all of the bass players of the world pull it out often enough. When Greg Cohen and Ornette do a bass and violin duo, the music takes on a whole new dimension and you can't help but be cast in its spell. Does it make sense? YES. These cats play with a fire, passion and energy that are never ending. Each piece is like one more addition to a continuous suite of sweet music. As a grand finally, Charlie Haden comes back and joins Ornette and the band. Now we have three bass players with Greg and Tom each working the bow on both sides Charlie. Charlie is the epicenter of the diamond formation and it is like a Phil Jackson offense, world class!
Would you like to know the secret to understanding the music? Well, the secret to getting the intricacies of this music it to open up and let it be exactly what it is! Leave the drama and all of the other frustrations, judgments, relationship and money problems at the door and just except the music with malice towards none. Take the frown off of you face, this is a concept for life. Just think what the world would be like if those same principles were applied to you fellow man! Imagine that. The basis of jazz is to speak you mind, express your emotions and feel the love!
Thank you Ornette, the love was felt!

I touched briefly on why I thought the Caps goaltending could get them through a Cup run, and with Jose Theodore's third shutout of the year I wanted to make his case why he should be the #1 goalie going into the playoffs.
My case is a simple one and is based on two points:
Jose Theodore won the Hart and Vezina Trophy in 2001-02, was named to the 2nd NHL All Star team in that same year. He was an NHL All Star in 2002 and 2004 and won 10 in a row this year during the Caps 14 game win streak. Clearly, Jose has the skill to play goalie at a high level.

Going back to their origins
The most artistically long-lived choreographers bring their early works back on stage, by popular demand
The choreographers with the longest creative lifespans have built whole careers around their dazzling "early work".
Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker of Belgium, 50, has produced a corpus of creations exploring the foundations on which her early work was built. But her name remains tied to a handful of youthful compositions, particularly "Rosas danst Rosas".
Maguy Marin's artistic career has also lived up to the promise of her youth. This creative choreographer, who made a splash in the late '70s and early '80s with the visionary imagination of her dance theatre, now excels equally in pure dance performances. But it's no mystery that her most popular show, which is once again touring the world, is still the 1981 "May B".

This is a nice plant and here is a better photo. Not as squatty as the
photo indicates. Proportions are better. It's tall like a TB, strong
resistance to weather damage and for me it's a knockout to look at. I hope
I can get a pod off it that yields viable seed, but that won't take me
anywhere near how it looks here.

... and the moat, having survived and in good condition, and the central "old town" is extensive. Historically Beaune is intimately connected with the Dukes of Burgundy. One of the landmarks in Beaune is the old market (les Halles) which was open Saturday. The markets had an abundance of fresh food, Stuart just didn't know where to start. We spent a hour and half just wandering around the village. We arrived in Reime at 5.30pm to a lovely ...

If you are looking for honest, hard-working, reliable tradesmen, these are your guys. Floor preparation was unparalleled - after 4 previous floor disasters, I've got a good understanding of how this all works. To ensure a level floor, they ground down high bits and used a self-leveller to bring up the low bits. They worked late when necessary to get it finished in time - and I mean late - 10 or 11pm. They cleaned up after themselves and we had a team here every day until the job was complete. Excellent job!

Several Catholics have written in to implore us not to tar an entire faith with the same brush. Although by far the majority of your letters on the subject of Cardinal O'Brien have condemned him and his cover-up, some accused us of being one-sided in our coverage; even of an anti-Catholic agenda.
Let's be clear: that's nonsense. It is not anti-Catholic to report the revelations about the Cardinal's secret sex life, follow up with his cryptic denials and then print his too-little too-late admission that his sexual conduct had "fallen beneath the standards expected of me". It is not anti-Catholic to reveal that O'Brien, by his own admission "as a priest, archbishop and cardinal" had indulged in the same homosexual activity against which he had long railed from a privileged position of power.
People hear what they want to. On the news I watched a woman interviewed outside her church, insisting that somehow there would be a good explanation for it all. Well, just as with the cover-ups of the many paedophile priest scandals, the Magdalene Laundries shame or the cynical admission of married CofE vicars into the Catholic priesthood while continuing to deny Catholic priests the same right, there is no "good" explanation, just hypocrisy and cover-up.
I'm personally very aware of the good the Church does at its best. For those of the faith who believe in and practise this "good", there is an unambiguous, absolute need for the Church to reform itself and reappraise its attitudes to sex – including allowing priests to marry – and homosexuality. Why can the Church not see it? Stop the cover-ups, investigate fully, punish the wrongdoers and do it all in public.Reuse content

LM Sensors 3.0.0 Reworked
Version 3.0.0 of LM Sensors, a software package for hardware monitoring has just been released.
The new version was preceded by three release candidates and seven months of hard work. During this time, the developers forked off the I2C Tools, which were formerly part of LM Sensors, to create a separate package.
The developers have completely reworked the underlying Libsensors library, and upped the version number to 4.0.0. Libsensors uses the SysFS interfaces and now has a far smaller footprint than its predecessor. LM Sensors 3.0.0 is suitable for use with theLinux kernel 2.6.5 or newer; the software itself no longer contains kernel drivers, but runs entirely in userspace. Existing "sensors.conf" configuration files can still be used with the new library. The new release provides a script for converting to the new format.
For more information, and for the LM Sensors source code package, visit the project homepage. The license is GPL version 2. Patches are available for applications such as XSensors or GKrellkm that rely on Libsensors, to ensure compatibility with the new version of the library.

Abundant Life Health Centre
Acupuncture, back pain, Pain Relief
Acupuncture is a painless therapeutic technique that is used to treat specific health dysfunctions such as muscle pain, headaches, functional problems or even stress-related disorders. Contemporary acupuncture is an evidence-based practice which focuses on the anatomy and physiology of the body. It is a combination of using fine solid needles and electrical stimulation to activate the nervous system and modulate pain. Acupuncture is commonly used as a supplementary addition to the patient's treatment plan to accelerate the recovery process. Dr. Tammy Yuen received her acupuncture training from the McMaster University Contemporary Medical Acupuncture Program.

Used by countless professional athletes, kinesiology taping is the use of specialized flexible tape applied over specific paths of the body for treating athletic injuries and a variety of conditions.

Abundant Life Health Centre offers various modalities, such as Interferential Current (IFC), Electro-Muscle Stimulation (EMS) and Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS), each specialized to treat varying injuries, to ensure we have the right treatment for our patients.

I completely enjoyed my dive trip through viator. The initial site was easy to sign up for the trip and pickup at the resort was right on time. The staff/instructors at Stuart's Cove were very friendly and professional and I had a great time. Great job!!!
Matthew R USA
The only draw back was the shuttle to the dive shop. Everything else was great. Gary my instructor was very professional and fun. The equipment and instruction was superb. I can't wait to return and dive there again.
Wioletta B USA
After surfacing every 2 minutes in the practice pool, I was concerned about not being able to dive in the ocean. The instructors repeated instructions and were very patient with beginners like myself. Scuba diving was the BEST part of my trip to Nassau. In our small group, we explored corals and tropical fish. The instructors looked out for us and made the experience fun and easy. We did not find a better deal on the island. They picked us up and dropped us up for free other tours on the island charge. Would love to scuba dive with them again!
Staff was friendly and fun and very helpful.
Toni L USA
I am a certified diver but had never done an ocean dive. I requested the Resort Course. Once arrived the dive guides told me I was too qualified and took me on the two tank dive. It was incredible. They were very helpful and understanding making it so enjoyable. Thanks to all, I will never forget it.

Being a father or mother could be one of the most gratifying experiences for anyone, a kid's life bringing with it lots of wondrous elements. For a lot of, being a moms and dad is a dream, the possibility for carrying on a family among the most remarkable moments in their lives. Regrettably, for many, the chance for having children has been decreased, or is a task that appears to be accomplishable by someone that's not them. That's where egg donation comes to being, a chance for sterile couples to have those jubilant experiences that feature giving birth. - Chicago IL Egg Donation
Could You Describe What Is Egg Donation?
Egg donation is the procedure where females supply mature eggs, generally 10-20, for reproduction or biomedical testing. Typically the most popular approach is through reproduction purposed, in which the eggs are obtained from the ladies, then fertilized through a sperm contribution.
