It turns out that scientists in South Korea have somehow inserted fluorescent genes into a dog egg, and implanted the eggs into some mix breed dog. What was born was puppies with somehow glowing faces and bellies.

Doesn’t this cause some sort of problem for the dogs to sleep properly? I wonder if this is the case, or if the dog isn’t able to detect the light it emits.

One of the most popular Web 2.0 practices is rounded corners. How do you get them without uploading images, and nesting DIV’s, and worrying about other complications that can break your precious rounded corners?
Answer! jQuery Corners
jQuery Corners is compatible with Firefox, Internet Explorer 6+, Safari (including iPhone), Google Chrome, and Opera 9.0. All it takes is a simple jQuery style selector call such as the following:
<script>
$(document).ready( function(){
$('.rounded').corners();
});
</script>
<div style=”background-color:#acc; padding:5px” class=”rounded”>
Simple Example
</div>
You can also experiment further with documented options to change the radius (amount of curve) for the rounded corners, and will even show properly if there is a background image specified inside of the object with rounded corners.
