Is giving birth more painful than getting kicked in the nuts? Women always maintain that giving birth is way more painful than a guy getting kicked in the nuts.
Well, after another beer, and some heavy deductive thinking, I have come up with the answer to that question. Getting kicked in the nuts is more painful than having a baby; and here is the reason for my conclusion.
A year or so after giving birth, a woman will often say, "it might be nice to have another child." On the other hand, you never hear a guy say, "You know, I think I would like another kick in the nuts."

Sunday Post (3): I'm Going to London!

Good luck on getting your papers ready in time, I'm sure you'll nail it!
And how exciting that you're going to London next September! I'm sure you're really excited about the Harry Potter show, and there are so many other fun things to do there, too. Plane rides over the Atlantic usually go very well, because you get served food, and there are movies to watch, and the seats are a little bit more comfortable than they are on shorter flights :)
Have a fantastic week ahead and happy reading.

LAUREN OMG!! Sooo jealous! I know I just got back from London in May, but I'm so jealous of all the people who will get to go see The Cursed Child! I'm hoping I'll be able to save up enough to travel again soon or else hopefully the play will go on tour here eventually. I'm excited for you and your sister (who is presumably a big HP fan too) to see the play and go to King's Cross Station and go to the Leavesden Studio Tour, etc. etc. There is plenty to do and see there, really, and I don't know how long you'll be there for, but you may end up needing to prioritize what you want to see for sure because there's just so much! If your sister is a book lover as well, then I'd recommend checking out the replica of Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. There are also many famous authors buried in Westminster Abbey. And if you're both into history, then the Tower of London is sooo cool. I would also recommend taking a few days to visit Edinburgh, only if you have the time...

My website is up and running.
I've decided to create a new website to replace this blog. It will be more of a portfolio to show my work more easily than this can. I will still keep this site up to date and continue to run it as a blog that gives the inside scoop of each production. The ulr of the new site will be billydurden.com once the company I purchased it from approves it. For now it can be seen here while it's under construction: http://billydurden.virb.com/.
Jed and I were featured in the University's newspaper today. The story was written about the relationships of athletes and the people who promote them. It pretty much summed up what goes on when we all get together and do what we love to do. It had a picture of us on the cover and a photo sequence I made of Jed that covered a huge portion of the sports page.

Here's the video for my autobiography project. Huge thanks to Josh Hays for helping me film the skiing shots.
Vodpod videos no longer available.This was our entry for the NIKE Chosen Video Contest on Facebook and Newschoolers.com. We shot it over a 4 day period. This was my first time using my HPX250 and Glidecam HD 4000. On the 3rd day I had to rent out a Canon 7D because my arm got too tired from holding the HPX. Shots came out solid but I need more practice with the Glidecam and the zoom/iris/focus remote I mounted on it. Jed skied extremely well, especially for just getting back on his skis from an accident that happened over a month ago. The song was given by NIKE to use for the contest.

I threw this edit together right before and during my trip to LA. I got a ton of shots of everyone while filming Jed's NIKE Chosen Entry. This was the first weekend using my HPX250 and first time ever operating a Glidecam. I had to switch to a Canon 7D on the 3rd day because my arm got too sore from the weight of the HPX. Shots came out solid but I still need a ton of practice with the Glidecam.

Jed Kravitz received a honorable mention from Level 1 for his Super Unknown submission. It almost didn't happen because we ran into about 1,000 problems when trying to edit everyone's footage on one timeline. We sat in media lab hours fighting technical problems from Final Cut and trying to condense 10 minutes of bangers into a 2 minute and 30 second slot. It fortunately came together right before the dealine. Congrats to Jed for killing it!
Vodpod videos no longer available.I recently picked up my own production equipment. We will now be filming with a Panasonic HPX250 that records in AVCIntra100 codec. This will allow me to have more room to push around shots in post. I also got my hands on a Glidecam HD 4000 to stabilize the camera without doing it in post using Final Cut or After Affects.
Our first assignment in Videography 251. The assignment was to storyboard a short video and shoot it in 2 hours using a Canon 7D. The catch was that we couldn't use any editing software, which meant we had to shot the whole thing in order and be precise with what we wanted in the shot. This version has a little sound editing and the eating sequence was sped up.

Spanish writer/director Julio Wallovits helms this existential black comedy concerning an unnamed protagonist who sets out on an absurdist quest to find fulfillment. His days spent wandering through the barren streets of an undistinguishable town, the man (Francesc Garrido) searches coffee shops to find the perfect table and examines local hotel rooms while being stalked by a pair of eccentric policemen (Gonzalo Cunhill and Luis Zahera) who know he is up to no good. Later, when the man finds a Bauhaus...more

Roxana Silbert is the artistic director of the Birmingham Repertory Theatre where her latest production, Molière's comedy Tartuffe, runs until 16 November. She tells Charlotte Cripps about her current reading, watching and surfing.
I cook lamb for friends while listening to The Archers omnibus on iPlayer. I'm addicted to it.
I continue catching up with a new website – inequalitybriefing.org – a fascinating collection of data about shocking wealth inequality in the UK that's created by an economist.
I attend a "Best of" Birmingham European Festival evening at Birmingham Rep – an eclectic programme of three European theatre shows plus a big meal.
Got up early to read The Mother, a compelling play by Brecht, in a new translation by Mark Ravenhill, before rehearsals. In the evening, I see Paolo Sorrentino's La Grande Belleza, a beautiful, moving film.
Lunchtime is spent researching traditional Indian film posters as inspiration for play publicity.
In the morning I listen to Desert Island Discs. I went to see Le Week-End in the evening – brilliant performances and a great laugh.
Fall asleep reading my book of the moment: The Deep Whatsis, Peter Mattei's first novel and a searing indictment of advertising.

OK- I saw my number one sports therapist today. Dr. Hal Rosenberg of the Chiro-Medical Group evaluated my RR100 issues.
He comfirmed that most of it was piriformis and some joint issues. He put me through a bunch of ART therapy. For those not familiar with ART, this is the excerpt from ChiroMedical's website:
Active Release Technique (ART)
ART is a soft tissue system of movement based massage techniques and myofascial release that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia and nerves. Headaches, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, shin splints, shoulder pain, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, knee problems, and tennis elbow are just a few of the many conditions that can be resolved quickly and permanently with ART. These conditions all have one important thing in common: they are often a result of overused muscles.
How do overuse conditions occur?
Over-used muscles (and other soft tissues) change in three important ways:
• acute conditions (pulls, tears, collisions, etc),
• accumulation of small tears (micro-trauma)
• not getting enough oxygen (hypoxia).
Each of these factors can cause your body to produce tough, dense scar tissue in the affected area. This scar tissue binds up and ties down tissues that need to move freely. As scar tissue builds up, muscles become shorter and weaker, tension on tendons causes tendonitis, and nerves can become trapped. This can cause reduced range of motion, loss of strength, and pain. If a nerve is trapped you may also feel tingling, numbness, and weakness.
What is an ART treatment like?
Every ART session is actually a combination of examination and treatment. The ART provider uses his or her hands to evaluate the texture, tightness and movement of muscles, fascia, tendons, ligaments and nerves. Abnormal tissues are treated by combining precisely directed tension with very specific patient movements. These treatment protocols - over 500 specific moves - are unique to ART. They allow providers to identify and correct the specific problems that are affecting each individual patient. ART is not a cookie-cutter approach.
Hal's finger and stretches tore into my muscles and joints. To quote John Mellencamp - it hurt so good. He gave me some stretching and foam roller exercises. I will be back. BTW: he mentioned a new hypoxic therapy that his office provides to help prepare for high altitiude events. I may check these out.

Another Country: Navigating the Emotional Terrain of Our EldersMary Pipher's third New York Times bestseller -- a book about us and our parents . . . There are more older people in America today than ever before. They are our parents and grandparents, our aunts and uncles and in-laws. They are living longer, but in a culture that has come to worship youth -- a culture in which families have dispersed, communities have broken down, and older people are isolated. Meanwhile, adults in two-career families are struggling to divide their time among their kids, their jobs, and their aging parents -- searching for the right words to talk about loneliness, forgetfulness, or selling the house. Another Country is a field guide to this rough terrain for a generation of baby boomers who are finding themselves unprepared to care for those who have always cared for them. Psychologist and bestselling writer Mary Pipher maps out strategies that help bridge the gaps that separate us from our elders. And with her inimitable combination of respect and realism, she offers us new ways of supporting each other -- new ways of sharing our time, our energy, and our love. |

Model Packs increase the number of Amp or FX Models of a GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt, PODxt Live or PODxt Pro, for a wider variety of tone possibilities. When a particular tone in the library relies on a Model available in one of these packs, you'll see symbol(s) to indicate which Packs: MS (Metal Shop), CC (Classics Collection), FX (FX Junkie), and PP (Power Pack).
The models within the FX Junkie Model Pack are already included in PODxt Live, and offered for purchase to add-on to GuitarPort, TonePort, PODxt and PODxt Pro.
Variax is the uniquely flexibile guitar from Line 6. Our Vetta II amplifier includes a digital connection for the Variax that lets you store settings for both your amp and your guitar in the Vetta II so that when you call up a Vetta Channel Memory your amp and guitar can change sounds together. Vetta II Tones marked with this guitar symbol include this Variax data.
For each tone in the library, you'll see an icon for either a single coil or humbucker pickup. This tells you whether the tone is best for use with a single coil pickup or a humbucker, so you can select the appropriate pickup on your guitar when using this tone.
Attention POD 2.0, Flextone and HD147 owners... Your hardware doesn't do Stomp effects, so you'll hear something different than what was intended. Try increasing the Drive or choose a higher gain Amp Model to get the right sound. The other aspects of the sound should translate as expected, so you'll at least get a great starting place for tweaking.
Tones contributed by users to the Public Tone Exchange are made by individual users, who are in no way affiliated with Line 6. Any product name or trademarks used by the users to describe their Tones are the sole property of their respective owners. Any use of these product names or trademarks of other manufacturers should not be construed as an endorsement, association or affiliation with Line 6.

Natural Birth & Parenting
I'm almost 20 weeks into my first pregnancy. I'd like to conisider a natural birth but I'm not sure if I can handle the pain.
I have part of my ovary removed last February and I stil remember the pain from that... and I had pain medication. I know it's like comparing apples to oranges.
But for you moms that have been through it before, seriously, how much does it hurt? Obviously you have to tolerate it because you can pass the point of no return for drugs... but how do you get through it? And have you ever experienced any other pain like it?
Just trying to imagine what it's like.
The key is to just focus on you and the baby coming out. Think about the baby moving down and out with each contraction. The more you lose focus on what your body is doing, the more painful it is. The more people try to talk to me, ask me to do this or that, want me to move here and there, the more painful it is. I just have to turn inward and not let those things distract me. I tell them to shut up and leave me alone...lol. The more you can just focus and do what your body wants you to do, the less pain you will have.
At that point, you seriously do not care about the pain. Your body is telling you to push and that is what you are worried about. You can feel it, but it doesn't matter. It is hard to explain.
Imagine if someone you loved was in danger and you hurt yourself trying to save them. You may know you are hurt, but you aren't really thinking about it that much. It is kind of like that.
Quoting jaybray310:
what about when the baby comes out? i've heard about this ring of fire. did you have that?
Nope, pushing and the baby coming out felt like such a relief.
You are focusing in the wrong things. Fearing the pain makes it hard to have a natural birth. But yes, I have a very high pain tolerance, didn't think it would be THAT bad, and still found birth a pain unlike any other.
Quoting jaybray310:
what about when the baby comes out? i've heard about this ring of fire. did you have that?
It depends greatly on attitude. You cannot go into it thinking "maybe, of it's not too hard" the fact is it is freaking hard. Once you decide you will do it get a good support system and care provider that backs you up, educate yourself on pain management you will be able to do it. It hurts and you probably (like most women who go natural) have a moment when you think you can't, but it will pass and pushing in the position that feels right will be a relief. It's is different for every women but it is possible for almost all.
I had one medicated birth (pit and stadol) and one natural tub labor birth. The difference is astonishing! I was in less pain and much less stress w/o drugs because I was able to move as my body pleased. Being forced on my back and coerced into drugs that kept me tied to a bed was far more agonizing. Natural does not have to mean unbearable, it's all about lisening to and trusting your body while kicking fear out the door.

This is a demo of a seamless insert of an Icecat LIVE product data-sheet in your website. Imagine that this responsive data-sheet is included in the product page of your webshop. How to integrate Icecat LIVE JavaScript.
Graphics processor family*
The category to which the graphics processor (GPU) belongs e.g. Southern Islands family of Radeon processors (made by AMD), GeForce 600 (made by NVIDIA).
Graphics processor*
Also known as a graphics processing unit (GPU), this is a specialized electronic circuit designed to rapidly manipulate and alter memory to accelerate the creation of images in a frame buffer intended for output to a display. GPUs are used in embedded systems, mobile phones, personal computers, workstations, and game consoles. Modern GPUs are very efficient at manipulating computer graphics.
GeForce 6800
CUDA (aka Compute Unified Device Architecture) is a parallel computing platform and programming model created by NVIDIA and implemented by the graphics processing units (GPUs) that they produce. CUDA gives program developers direct access to the virtual instruction set and memory of the parallel computational elements in CUDA GPUs.
Processor frequency*
The clock rate is the fundamental rate in cycles per second (measured in hertz) at which a computer performs its most basic operations such as adding two numbers. There are more factors, like internal memory size, that influence a computer's actual response time.
350 MHz
A stream processor produced by Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) to use the stream processing/GPGPU (General Purpose Graphics Processing Units) concept for heavy floating-point computations to target various industries, such as the High Performance Computing (HPC), scientific, and financial sectors. Originally developed by ATI Technologies until the company was acquired by AMD in 2006, the product line was previously branded as both ATI FireStream and AMD Stream Processor.
Graphics adapter RAMDAC
400 MHz
Graphics adapter bus clock speed
350 MHz
Discrete graphics adapter memory*
Graphics adapter memory type*
The type of memory used by the video card. Often a combination of dedicated memory (Video RAM or VRAM) and dynamic system memory is used. UMA stands for Unified Memory Architecture, and is a computer memory architecture that allows the graphics processing unit to share system memory. Other abreviations: RAM = Random Access Memory, SDRAM = synchronous dynamic RAM, DDR = double-data-rate.
Memory bus*
Hardware and software that connects the main memory to the memory controller in computer systems. Originally, general-purpose buses like VMEbus and the S-100 bus were used, but to reduce latency, modern memory buses are designed to connect directly to DRAM chips, and thus are designed by chip standards bodies such as JEDEC.
256 bit
Memory clock speed
The frequency at which the memory (e.g. RAM) runs.
300 MHz
Ports & interfaces
DVI-I ports quantity
This is the amount of DVI-I interfaces. Digital Visual Interface (DVI) is a video display interface developed by the Digital Display Working Group (DDWG). The digital interface is used to connect a video source to a display device, such as a computer monitor. DVI-I is DVI integrated, which means it can support digital and analog.
PPU (microprocessor) expansion card designed by Ageia to accelerate PhysX-enabled video games.
TV tuner integrated
Device has an in-built TV tuner.
DirectX version
DirectX is a collection of APIs (application programming interfaces) for easily handling tasks related to game programming on the Microsoft Windows operating system.
OpenGL version
OpenGL (Open Graphics Library) is a specification defining a cross-language cross-platform API for writing applications that produce 3D computer graphics (and 2D computer graphics as well). The interface consists of over 250 different function calls which can be used to draw complex three-dimensional scenes from simple primitives.
High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) is a form of digital copy protection to prevent copying of digital audio and video content as it travels across connections.
Dual Link DVI
A dual-link DVI interface sends data over both of the DVI links to the monitor, and this is how higher resolutions are achieved. With dual-link DVI, a resolution of 2048 x 1536 is possible.
Cooling type
The method used to cool the device or to cool the air around the device.
Packaging data
Bundled software
Software distributed with another product such as a piece of computer hardware or other electronic device, or a group of software packages which are sold together. A software suite is an example of bundled software, as is software which is pre-installed on a new computer.

"Bill is s (bleeping) Jackass"http://ceedubb.com/2013/10/bill-is-a-fucking-jackass/
So, Imagine that the company you work for held a poll, and asked everyone if they thought it would be a good idea to put a soda machine in the break room. The poll came back, and the majority of your colleagues said Yes, indicating that they would like a soda machine. Some said no, but the majority said yes. So, a week later, theres a soda machine. Now imagine that Bill in accounting voted against the soda machine. He has a strong hatred for caffeinated soft drinks, thinks they are bad you you, whatever. He campaigns throughout the office to get the machine removed. Well, management decides OK, well ask again and again, the majority of people say Yes, lets keep the soda machine. Bill continues to campaign, and management continues to ask the employees, and every time, the answer is in favor of the soda machine. This happens, lets say 35 times. Eventually, Bill says OK, IM NOT PROCESSING PAYROLL ANYMORE UNTIL THE SODA MACHINE IS REMOVED, so nobody will get paid unless management removes the machine. What should we do??? continued at the link: http://ceedubb.com/2013/10/bill-is-a-fucking-jackass/

1. And after Upper Management kicks Bill's ass to the curb...
Bill can sign up for the ACA - perhaps even get Medicaid, depending on which state he lives - same as the TP repugs who will lose their jobs after the elections in '14.

When the aged mother of Anglo-Russian twins Gabriel and Isabella dies in St Petersburg, they have no idea of the family secrets that are about to spring to life. Such as the truth about their own parents' relationship, and such as the existence of an unacknowledged half-brother, Arkady, a brilliant pianist who can't afford to finish his training at the Conservatory.
This dense, 520-page novel brings to life a rich cast of interrelated characters, including Arkady's mentor, the failed priest and drug addict Henry Wheyland; the terrifying gangster Grisha; the twins' erotomaniac and fearsomely erudite father; and looming over all, the powerful figure of their mother, the deceased Maria. Docx switches between settings and time-frames with the serene, godlike power of a Victorian novelist. London, New York and Paris are all set before the reader with cinematic vividness – but it is St Petersburg that is the beating heart of the book, with its crumbling apartment blocks, Winter Palace, drug addicts, musicians and mafiya.
The early and middle sections of the book demand to be read slowly, as the complications accrete. But Docx has some wonderful setpieces, such as the seven-page description of a jazz gig in a St Petersburg bar. He is an expert at knowing when to end a chapter – the moment the emotional payload has been delivered, not a moment later. He's a virtuoso phrasemaker, with such arresting sentences as "The vodka was working its magic on their wilful blood"; he can also rise to comic heights, such as his characterisation of magazine articles "so badly written they would have blushed to serve as toilet paper during the siege of Leningrad". As Wodehouse said of Shakespeare, Docx can certainly crack the ball through the covers when his eye is in.

Dallas Stars forward Sean Avery has dated his fair share of famous Hollywood including Rachel Hunter and one of my personal favorites Elisha Cuthbert. Now Page Six reports the 28 year old has "skated" onto 51 year old Kelly Klein; the ex-wife of fashion designer Calvin Klein. Seems like Kelly always falls for the guys with impeccable fashion sense.

text: Jets Owner Woody Johnson Now Says Tim Tebow Was "Forced" On HimBarry Petchesky1/21/13 10:20amFiled to: New York JetsTim Tebowwoody johnsonMark SanchezNflAppicNews25EditPromoteShare to KinjaToggle Conversation toolsGo to permalink It's been a race in the Jets front office to deflect blame for Tim Tebow's signing, season-long benching, and the entire circus. First onto Tebow himself, with anonymous Jets sources saying Tebow refused to be used in Wildcat packages. Then coach Rex Ryan made it known it was strictly a football move, saying that if he thought Tebow could have helped the team win, "I would have played him." (Ryan also made his loyalties crystal clear by refusing to play Tebow no matter how awful Mark Sanchez played. Also, an erotic Sanchez tattoo.) Add Jets owner Woody Johnson to the list of Jets sources who want to make it very clear, they never wanted Tebow in the first place. According to ESPN.com, Johnson explained to one of the Jets' prospective GM candidates just how he ended up on the team: Advertisement Advertisement Former Broncos GM Ted Sundquist, who interviewed for the job nine days ago, said Johnson told him it wasn't his idea. According to Sundquist, Johnson said the trade was "forced" on them — meaning him and team president Neil Glat, who also participated in the interview. That makes it sound like Johnson was blaming former GM Mike Tannenbaum for the Tebow debacle; in a sense, Johnson did exactly that, firing Tannenbaum. Johnson also said, according to Sundquist, that he eventually "jumped on board" with the idea, deferring to his football people.That's sort of odd, because Tannenbaum was never really considered a "football person"—he was hired for his salary cap wizardry. That CBA mastery got the Jets to a pair of conference championship games, but it also got them stuck with this roster, a hole so big they hired a second cap guy in John Idzik to dig them out. Johnson's possibly engaging in some revisionist history here (he seemed all about Tebow last summer), but what are the Jets going to do? Fire him?Tebow's gone when free agency opens up, but Johnson's distancing shouldn't be taken as an endorsement of Mark Sanchez. For Week 14, after Sanchez had been benched, Greg McElroy had replaced him semi-competently, and Tebow recovered from some bruised ribs, there was dissension in the front office on who to start. The football people came down firmly in favor of Sanchez, but Woody Johnson was all about McElroy. Next season should be fun. Reply25 repliesLeave a reply

Big Ten M5: 12.04.15 Edition
Posted by Patrick Engel on December 4th, 2015- Riding a string of three straight losses, the wheels have predictably started to fall off at Rutgers. The Scarlet Knights got even worse news when head coach Eddie Jordan announced forward Deshawn Freeman will miss the next two weeks with a sore knee. It's a tough blow for a team facing upcoming games against Seton Hall, George Washington and mid-major darling Monmouth in the next 17 days. The junior leads Rutgers in scoring (13.1 PPG) and field goal percentage (54.4 percent) while ranking second in rebounding (5.3 RPG).
- While the Big Ten tied or won its seventh straight Big Ten/ACC Challenge on Wednesday, Indiana's abhorrent lack of defense was one of the Challenge's biggest storylines. In a 94-74 loss to Duke, the Hoosiers allowed 1.52 points per possession while three Duke players posted an offensive rating of 160.0 or higher, per KenPom.com. The Blue Devils didn't merely take advantage of a handful of bad matchups; they throttled a team that didn't display much effort on defense all night. Since the start of last season, the Hoosiers have allowed at least 1.2 points per possession six separate times, and also allowed a terrible Alcorn State team to score 70 points against them on Monday.
- Perhaps the biggest win of the Challenge was Wisconsin's 66-58 road victory at Syracuse. The Badgers' offense isn't nearly as efficient or high-scoring as it was the last two seasons, but freshman Ethan Happ's 18-point, 15-rebound night is exactly what Bo Ryan's team needs: a legitimate third scoring option to take some of the pressure off of Bronson Koenig and Nigel Hayes. Depth has been an issue as Wisconsin reboots its system this season, so Happ needs more performances like he had in the Carrier Dome. If Brevin Pritzl is ruled out for the season, the bench could be even shorter. He's only played in just four minutes this season due to complications from a broken foot suffered in August and should learn his fate on Friday after undergoing additional tests.
- Despite its issues in the frontcourt, Michigan has shot the three-pointer well again this season. The Wolverines shoot 43.0 percent from three as a team, but Caris LeVert, Derrick Walton, Jr., and Duncan Robinson's shooting numbers are the most impressive part. Robinson and Walton are each shooting over 60 percent from deep and have combined for 34 made threes on 55 attempts (62 percent). In Robinson's last three games, he has made 14-of-20 three-point attempts. That makes LeVert's own impressive 52 percent mark from beyond the arc seem rather insignificant. While these numbers won't last all season, Michigan has proven it is capable of shooting its way to victory on any given night.
- We detailed Iowa's depth on Wednesday, but Jarrod Uthoff's fantastic start to the year shouldn't be lost in the Hawkeyes' deeper-than-expected offense. Uthoff ranks third in scoring in the Big Ten with 17.7 PPG, is second in blocked shots with 2.6 per game and is one of three players in the conference posting averages of at least 17 points and six rebounds per game (Michigan State's Denzel Valentine and Ohio State's Marc Loving are the others). His 8.1 percent turnover rate also ranks fifth in the conference. Don't sleep on Uthoff — he's playing like a shoo-in for First Team All-Big Ten.

The closest the electric eel is related to the true eel is at the Class levelOsteichthyes (bony fishes). They diverge there, true eels in the Order Angulliformes and electric eels being part of Cypriniformes. So, despite appearances, this makes the electric eel more closely related to such fish as carp, goldfish, minnows, and piranha (really). Additionally, the electric eel is the only member of its Family Electrophoridae (some put it in the Family Gymnotidae, some list that as a Subordersome give the Order as Gymnotiformes...ah, the convoluted world of taxonomic classification).
First "discovered" by Charles Marie de la Condamine in 1743, these usually dark brownish-greenish fish live in the waters of the Amazon River basin and the Orinoco in South America. They have small eyes with poor eyesight and an elongated (admittedly) eel-like body shape. They have small fins behind their gills and a long fin running the length of the underside of the fish. By undulating this fin, the eel is able to propel itself forward or backward (not using the tail, itself, as a primary means of propulsion allows it to monitor its own electric organ discharge without disruption). Electric eels can grow up to 2.5 m and weigh up to 20 kg (8.2 feet and about 44 pounds, respectively)though are more commonly about half that size.
The gills do not function as they do in other fish and are used primarily for elimination of carbon dioxide. The mouth of the electric eel is full of blood vessels and functions as its "gills" or "lung." The eel periodically rises to the surface to gulp air in order to breathe (every few minutes; 20 minutes without access to oxygen is enough to kill it). Because of this, it can live in muddy and poorly oxygenated water. This is helpful since this nocturnal fish is a primary predator in areas known as varzea ("part of the Amazon forest which lies next to rivers and is flooded annually for several months"), where it will eat small mammals, frogs, or birds. The electric eel waits near the edge for prey to come close enough to discharge its electrical shock, which will either kill or stun it allowing the eel to feed. It mainly feeds on other fish. Juvenile eels tend to eat small invertebrates.
While it is the primary means of getting a meal, the large fish also may merely "gulp" its prey before it can escape (gulping being necessary since the electric eel is toothless). The eel has also been known to eat fallen fruit, which aids in seed dispersal.
As a fish, the eel lays eggs, but unlike many fish, it also cares for and protects its young (both adults).
All the important internal organs are found at the front of the eel (about the front fifth), from mouth to anus. The rest of the eelthat is, the "tail"is relegated for swimming purposes and, of course, the reason the electric eel is so fascinating: its electrical organs.
Though there are around 500 species of fish that can produce an electric discharge, none are better known or are able to make as much electricity as the electric eel. The electric organs are found in pairs along the length of the tail. They are made up of thousands of modified muscle cells called "electroplaques" or "electrocytes." Nerve endings activate them and each gives off small electrical charges, which when totaled together, can generate shocks up to 650 voltsenough to stun a man (even kill under the right circumstances or if repeated shocks occur) and reportedly knock down and even kill a horse. In addition to enabling feeding, it is a formidible means of self-defense.
The size of the eel directly relates to the strength of the charge, smaller ones (around 10 cm/about 4 inches) only able to deliver shocks around 100 volts. The eel discharges its electricity in three to five bursts, lasting around 1/500 of a second. Afterward, the eel does need time to rest and "recharge," storing up electricity like a living battery.
The eel also generates low voltage shocks, around 10 volts, that are used as a means of "electrolocation" (similar to echolocation in bats), both for navigation and finding prey. It is also thought that these low level shocks aid in mating to find and determine the status of potential mates. They have been known to still carry a charge some eight to nine hours after death.
Electric eels have no known natural predators and are far from endangered. One fish survey of a varzea area found the eel to make up around 70% of the fish biomass.

Well, hello there. What a crazy weekend we had! On Saturday, we headed to Lincoln's cousins 2nd birthday party. Lincoln and this particular cousin are exactly one month apart. It's been so fun watching these two boys grow up together. The older they get, the more fun they are together. When they see one another they'll run up & give each other hugs. Sweetest thing ever!
The boys enjoyed playing outside in the brisk fall weather.
I think my sweet boy NEEDS a playhouse. He went nuts over this thing!
When we left the party, we made the 2+ hour trip to Rhode Island to attend my cousins memorial fundraiser. It was family friendly until about 8:30pm or so...then the band needed to set up. Lincoln left around that time with his Grammy, while Jared & I stayed to support my other cousin, who put the event together.
People. I had a BABY [well, a cranky baby]...IN A BAR!!!
Ha! I love that line from Sweet Home Alabama! Jared & I had a great time mingling & enjoying the band...they were pretty awesome! We haven't done that since I was about 9 weeks pregnant with Lincoln. I DID however feel a teensy tiny bit old...being a Momma in a bar, ha! Oh well, such is life.
Sunday, Lincoln had his FIRST haircut...which I will post about another day :)
I hope you all had a great weekend!!

With a crucial deadline for the inauguration of a new president approaching, and an election ballot recount at a critical stage, fears are growing that Afghanistan's fragile transition process could collapse into violence.
The quickening pace of the protracted election audit and a flurry of meetings between aides to the two rival candidates this week have raised faint hopes that the country may have a new leader in office within two weeks, just in time to attend a Nato summit crucial to future foreign aid for Afghanistan.
But Afghan and international observers warn that the process could easily fall apart, with disputes persisting over the fairness of the ballot recount and the two candidates unable to agree on a division of power after a winner is declared. Under US pressure, they agreed to form a national unity government with a president as well as a chief executive, but they differ strongly on the details.
Despite pleas for patience from international officials, aides and allies of Abdullah Abdullah – the candidate who originally called for the ballot recount and charged massive fraud in a June runoff vote against rival Ashraf Ghani – continue to threaten that they will pull out of the process and call for civil unrest if Mr Ghani wins a tainted recount and is named president.
One powerful governor backing Mr Abdullah threatened in June to form a "parallel government" after Mr Abdullah lost the runoff, and last week he again called for a "civil uprising" and takeover of the capital if Mr Abdullah loses the vote recount. There have been separate news reports that some officials close to the Afghan security services may be planning to install their own "interim government" if the political process falls apart.
Over the past few days, police and security vehicles have flooded the capital, Kabul, and sporadic gunfire has been heard. On Tuesday, a knife fight reportedly broke out at the heavily guarded election compound where the votes are being recounted, injuring several people.
Although both candidates have signed a commitment to form a joint government as soon as the recount results declare one of them president, negotiating teams for Mr Ghani and Mr Abdullah are apparently still miles apart on how much power and authority the loser would be able to exercise as chief executive, a critical factor in dispensing patronage to powerful backers and allies.
Uncertainty over what will happen in the next two weeks – whether Afghanistan will manage to install a new government or face violent challenges from forces unwilling to accept electoral defeat – is gripping a nation that has gambled its future on a deeply flawed first-ever democratic transition of power. "Afghanistan is very fragile and unstable. We are right at the edge of making or destroying all the hopes that the people have for new leadership and a credible government," said Abbas Noyan, a spokesman for Mr Ghani. "Former adversaries need to become partners, but we have enemies on all sides, from the hardliners to the Taliban. If violence starts, a lot of people will be killed before it can be stopped."
Mr Ghani, a former World Bank official, won the June runoff by a wide margin over Mr Abdullah, a former foreign minister, and is likely to prevail in the recount. Mr Abdullah, who garnered the most votes among 16 candidates in a first round in April, has alleged that both the runoff and the recount have been fraudulently stacked against him by Mr Ghani and the outgoing government of President Hamid Karzai.
The deadline to install a new president by the end of the month is more symbolic than legal, since the original inauguration date slipped by several weeks ago. But with a Nato summit in early September and a much-delayed US-Afghan security agreement awaiting a new president's signature, the future of Western economic and military support for Afghanistan hangs in the balance.
Mr Karzai, who has led Afghanistan for more than a decade since the overthrow of the Taliban regime, now says he intends to leave office by the end of the month, raising the prospect of a prolonged power vacuum if no one is confirmed to replace him. Nato leaders have said they will have to start plans to withdraw all forces from Afghanistan if the security agreement is not signed soon.
Until recently, the ambitious, UN-supervised audit had been slowed by technical problems and constant disagreements between the two sides. In the past week it has picked up considerable speed, but it is about to enter a new, highly politicized phase. Election officials plan to announce partial results, which could unleash a frenzy of accusations and ultimatums from both camps.

RUTLAND — Monday was a good day for Karen Kane. While it was exciting and encouraging having Sen. Patrick Leahy hold a field hearing of his U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee in Rutland on opiate abuse in Vermont, there was something even better. Just before the hearing began, Kane, of Brandon, learned that a spot opened up at the Mapleleaf Farm drug treatment center in Underhill for her 24-year-old son, a heroin addict.

What's this? Out to see sites two weeks in a row after such a long absence? Yes! A while ago I asked for ideas and my good friend Ken Williams suggested two of these places and told me how to find the third.
All three of the rock-art panels I visited today have been moved from their original location. Two if them were found built into field walls, while no-one is really sure where the third came from exactly. They are all fairly accessible - one is even signposted (well, sort of), although two are quite remote. One is right beside a busy road!
At the first site I got very lucky and arrived at the perfect time of day for the light to be striking the panel from the side. I wasn't so lucky at the other two as the weather started deteriorating. At least the rain held off until I was on my way home.

Though I was initially skeptical (smelled a little like Robitussin), I actually like it a lot. The hibiscus flavor really does it for me. Echoing previous reviews, the aroma is much stronger than the taste.

text: The Jewish community of Center City, Philadelphia is growing rapidly with synagogues, educational facilities, kosher establishments, and events available throughout the city. With all that this city has to offer young professionals, families, and prospective residents, this growing community lacks an integral piece of Jewish family life; a mikvah. Our mikvah will be housed at Historic Vilna Congregation and open to all members of the local Jewish community. We welcome you to join us in this exciting endeavor to establish mikvah in Center City.

Narasimha, Roddam (1961) Some flow problems in rarefied gas dynamics. Dissertation (Ph.D.), California Institute of Technology. http://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechETD:etd-11042003-095050
This thesis discusses three rather loosely connected problems in free molecule and nearly free molecule flow. First the expansion of a gas cloud into perfect vacuum is considered on the basis of the collision-less Boltzmann equation, and it is shown that if the initial distribution is an isothermal Maxwellian, the density obeys a diffusion equation with a diffusion coefficient proportional to the time. This leads to the description of the free expansion of symmetric clouds in terms of a thick 'diffusion front' traveling at the initial isothermal speed of sound. The expansion of asymmetric clouds and the flow due to sources and jets are also studied.
Second, a method of iteration proposed by Willis for calculating nearly free molecular flow is extended to general unsteady flows; it is then applied to the flow through an orifice to show that the correction to the mass flow is of the first order in the inverse Knudsen number. The coefficient, estimated by making some reasonable assumptions about the three-dimensional nature of the flow, is found to agree quite well with Liepmann's measurements.
Finally a physical basis is suggested for Krook's collision model used in the above calculations. Several consequences of the model are then derived, including the important one that, in the Navier-Stokes limit, the model implies a Stokesian gas with a Prandtl number of unity. The value to be given to the parameter in the model is also discussed at some length.
