Safety signs (+ lab equipment) for fashion addicts & yuppies in the lab
Well, we probably all know snobs and yuppies and fashion addicts in our environment... This small compilation is for them and about them... Because sooner or later they may also appear in the labs. (Although people wearing Louis Vuitton shoes rarely choose science for their profession, and people earning their living with science can rarely afford Louis Vuitton shoes...)

Scientific 'Happy New Year' Greeting Cards
Well, probably all scientists send and get some Christmas and New Year greeting cards from their colleagues. I also got some recently and this has inspired me. This cartoon is not really a joke, just the description of some facts or things I observed. Often men (who are in the position and have a lab) send a card with their group (lab) members on it. This is normal and quite understandable, especially in the US or in other countries/institutions with well-developed lab homepages including such photos each year, etc. What I wanted to show in comparison here is what I observed about Women in Science... 1) Scientific spinsters prefer to send some cutie animal containing greeting card (having often nothing more to show related to science or their lives or their non-existing lab, because they cannot cooperate with most people in the world)... 2) Scientific moms have tendency to send cards with their family on it. Either because they want to underline that besides their carreer they do have a happy family life as well (even if they may also have a lab if they are lucky), or because their chances to (ever) have a lab are quite low since they chose to have a family (so they cannot send any lab photo). And definitely family means a lot more to them than anything else, and they WANT or LIKE to share this fact with the scientific world as well, because it is an integral and important part of their personality, and/or because they do not want to be categorized as 'scientific spinsters' or 'escorts'...

Thanks for the 30000th pageview!
This is just a short message to the readers of the blog from all over the world, from Georgia to New Zealand, through Philippines, Argentina, Egypt, and of course the USA, Canada and Great Britain... Thanks for viewing the blog, I hope you like it, and I hope to get some encouraging feedback (maybe even some straightforward criticism) to keep on going with this comic strip project for long (besides my scientific and housewife activities)...

Biological Christmas Presents - for Molecular Biologists
Continuing the series started last year with Chemical Christmas Presents, I'd like to wish all readers of this blog Merry Christmas
with this drawing representing some ideal and nice Christmas presents for (female) molecular biologists. (Maybe these models could be realized and eventually included in Sigma catalogue or whatever.) I have just realized that I must have been a little bit
boring during this autumn (I made lots of 'repetitive' comic strips, i.e.
series, because I was quite busy and had not too much time to prepare creative, complicated drawings
and realize my other, more sophisticated ideas)... Sorry for it, and so I tried to improve the blog in December with plenty of new ideas and comic strips in order not to deceive my followers and dear readers...
P.s. If you are really interested and tempted - I have just got the information that a Swedish company produces such jewellery...
