And if so, do you like them? I'm redecorating and want to put HW flooring in my house - need to put engineered ones though b/c I have a stair case and the trip laws keep me from putting down 3/4" thinck (must be no thicker than 5/8") All help appreciated!

We used to sell the Kahrs product in our reno business. This was a while ago (2-3 years), so forgive me if the info has changed since then.
My bosses adored this product because it is real wood and you can refinish it up to three times, I think. Just make sure to seal it properly! However, we stopped using it because it is cost prohibitive.
i would use linoleum. that's what we have and wet messes come off very fast and don't leave traces of ever being there. since yours is old and needs to be replaced, you should replace it. the worst things to use are hardwood, because it can get in the cracks, and carpet, for obvious reasons.
Thank you so much! You make me blush!
dont go too cheap…..home depot or lowes has closeout tile (usually less than 1$ a sq.) really east to install and will last forever, and when you do a project like that yourself you will be proud!
Virtually all insulin currently available in medicine is genetically engineered. The reasons for this are:
1) It is more cost-effective. Cultures of microorganisms can produce insulin at thousands of times the rate of an animal source.
2) Safety. Purified animal-sourced insulin was the only type of insulin available to diabetics until genetic breakthroughs occurred later in the 1960's and 1970's. It carries the risk of contagions if not properly purified. Also tiny impurities in the insulin caused immune reactions in the blood and skin.
Yes it has. Genetic engineering could be anything from choosing the phenotype or genotype of an embryo, changing existing traits of humans, gene therapy, and even creating a perfect genetic match for a sick child for organ donation, or stem cells.
Although playing with phenotypes, genotypes, and finding genetic matches in embryos is not really seen due to ethical issues, or using methods considered unsafe to test on humans, in many cases it is believed or is known to be possible to actually carry out these types of procedure, but again due to ethics it is often left untouched, and considered off-limits.
However gene therapy is not viewed as such a taboo subject. This involves injecting a virus or retrovirus into a host which them replicated its DNA in order to become a part of the host and therefore the genetic make up of a specific gene can be changed. This can be seen in the case of Severe Combined Immunodeficiency patients from the 1990's when the first trial was tested. However many patients developed leukemia because when their DNA was modified it played with another gene, called an oncogene, which turned healthy cells into cancerous cells.
Another potential gene therapy trial that some scientists are considering is for HIV/AIDS virus, some people actually do not possess the docking proteins required to infect a cell, so one theory that some scientists are testing is to find the gene that controls this and then using a retrovirus injection to create a vaccine/gene therapy cure for AIDS/HIV.
