ivan: Bread it?

Panko it, you mean.


Generally speaking, the verb is still the appropriate form of "to bread", with panko.

FTFA: The result is a working pituitary that expressed the right hormones and the right biomarkers. And to remove any doubt, the researchers implanted their lab-grown glands into mice with pituitary defects. The mice quickly showed restored levels of key pituitary hormones and behavioral symptoms of pituitary problems disappeared. These pituitary glands, by all appearances, seem to work like the original biological glands were meant to.

holy crap!

Oh, yeah. Just what you need. Then your phone is hacked, and someone in Russia adjusts your thyroid.

Yes, but the question is, did the Japanese take "pan" from the French, or the Portuguese?

"Ikura" is indisputably from the Russian.

The Japanese are big worudu steelaruzu.

Could this possibly be a life extension thing? Put in a new pituitary and go through puberty again?

So... if a mouse runs with scissors, trips and drives them through its pituitary gland, medical science can now fix it. Great to hear that.

/still runs with scissors

Just think of all the glands they could build! Why, it makes me want to get a whole new set. Especially the pineal. Mine seems to've gone rotten.

Oh yeah, I´ll tell you something
I think you'll understand
When I say that something:
I wanna whole new gland!
I wanna whole new glaa-aa-aa-and.
I wanna whole new gland.
