Tiktaalik roseae is an extinct species of lobe-finned fish from the late Devonian Period, and had many features akin to those of tetrapods. It is considered to be a fossil link between lobe-finned fish such as Pandericthys and primitive tetrapods such as Acanthostega.
Tiktaalik displays several features of tetrapods that have convinced scientists it is a transitional form. Unlike earlier transitional forms, Tiktaalik had basic wrist bones and simple fingers in its fins, showing they were weight bearing. Although it probably had a hard time crawling on land, it probably used its fins to prop itself out of the water and breath air with its primitive lungs. This would have been useful in its oxygen-scarce water environment. It is also the earliest known fish to have a mobile neck.
Tiktaalik had gills, fins and scales like any fish, but it also had tetrapod characteristics such as jointed bones, a flattened skull, a mobile neck with a pectoral girdle, and a spiracle that resembled primitive ears.
Tiktaalik probably lived in shallow freshwater systems such as swamps. In this environment its adaptations would have been useful to help it survive: lungs to help it breath air when there wasn't enough in the water and strong fins to prop itself on land and to move to new pools of water.
While it could not effectively exploit the land, it is an important missing link that was developing features that would give rise to true tetrapods.

stop wearing a bra to bed. It is not good to wear a bra at all times. you do not need to wear it every hour of the day. the rash is from it rubbing against ur skin. it is also not good for breast development. wearing a bra to bed will slow down ur breast grown.

Change your bra more often, wash and dry very well under the breast and use a Pambra.. it a bra liner that keeps you dry and comfortable. it absorbs the moisture in the bra area.. Pambra's the original bra liner is also Dr recommended yeah.

Synthetic underwear (too tight underwear) will cause sweating and cause all sorts of problems. There is relief! Go to your pharmacy and ask for Epsom Salts. This is not like regular salt and WILL NOT sting. Take 2 cups of Epson Salts and pour boiling water in to dissolve Epsom Salt Crystals. Then pour this into a TEPID BATH (body temp.) Lay back and relax for approx. 20 minutes to 1/2 hour. Be sure to dry the area between your butt cheeks VERY WELL. Do this 3 times a week for 2 weeks and you should feel relief from the very first soak in Epsom Salts. This has been used for many things such as healing wounds to getting steel slivers out of fingers to infections from a sore toe or finger. Then use Polysporim cream (can also be found at the drug store) and apply between the butt cheeks. This will help heal and take any infection away.

Look at changing your menstrual products. If you use commercial pads such as Always or Kotex this could be causing you problems, these are made from synthetics and plastics so prevent air flow to genitals which causes sweating as well as stops blood drying which can cause irritation. Commercial pads also contain hundreds of chemical ingredients, even if not scented, which can cause irritation.
Opt for cotton pads like Emerita or Natracare which are hypo-allergenic, or better still would be to use cloth pads like Lunapads or Gladrags, you could also use menstrual cups or softcups which are internal but unlike tampons there's no need to use pads at all.
I would recommend seeing a doctor soon, as this may be a sign of a condition known as Acanthosis Nigricans (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acanthosis_nigricans) . This is an increase in the pigmentation in your skin, which is characteristic of Type 2 Diabetes, or another type of insulin resistance. Don't mess around with this!
