With two complete starter packs (in my profile), here is a 3rd one for the ever-growing metabolism community. Please contact me if you are working (prerequisite) on metabolism and want to be included here; there is still some space. I will keep updating it.

Everyone at Aberdeen FC is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Aberdeen born football legend Denis Law.

Our thoughts are with his family and friends.
