A. We use the adaptive dynamics framework to make theoretical predictions of evolutionary trajectory under trade-offs between growth parameters. B. We assess these predictions using forward simulations mapping the trajectory of evolution on varying the supply of mutations (mutation rate, supply of trait-increasing mutations (mutation bias), and mutation effect size), and calculate new quantities not available in adaptive dynamics, such as time-dependent fixation rates and the time to reach an Evolutionary Stable Strategy (ESS).

Was at this same intersection last week on my bike and a car ran a red light moments before I pedaled onto this same cross walk. Must be fixed and glad your daughter was spared

Last night, on the corner of Alewife Brook Parkway and Powderhouse Boulevard, my older daughter was struck by a driver.
She was crossing in the crosswalk – with the WALK signal – and the car ran the red light. Miraculously, she was okay and walked away with nothing worse than a bruise.

Restoring Gold Standard Science
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including section 7301 of title 5, United
tl;dr — this EO co-opts the language of open science to implement a system of political control wherein presidential appointees are given broad latitude to designate any number of reasonable scientific activities and inferences as scientific misconduct, and to penalize those involved accordingly.

Want to know why Republicans are voting on their Big Billionaire Bailout in the middle of the night? MSNBC just reported that it includes a $500 Billion dollar cut to Medicare.
