Here is some m0ar creatures

2010-09-09T02:27:00.000-07:00

Well, it seems as if at least some of you found the previous post interesting, so I'm following the old American saying "don't fix whats not broken".

Check out this Star nosed mole ! The ugly looking "thing" on its face is actually about 25000 sensory receptors, allowing it to feel its way around.
According to Wikipedia, its the fastest eating mammal there is, deciding in 8ms whether something is eatable or not, all thanks to the receptors which look horrible.

OK, this creature isn't as crazy as the other ones, but I'm putting it here nevertheless. Its the Komondor dog! It originates from Hungary, and looks like a mop.

Its the incredible Scorpion fish! Poisonous and dangerous, its Zapdos-like features scares most creatures of the ocean.

This thing (Bairds Tapir)
has a fucking cock for a nose. Jesus Christ monkey-balls, look how ugly it is!

I'm sorry for the poor quality this time, I didn't have much time to do it on. Will try to get it together to the next post!

The results of evolution

2010-09-06T07:12:00.000-07:00

Evolution. The inevitable effect of a planet with (as far as we know) carbon, oxygen and water. Other needed factors are : an atmosphere between 0-10 Atm(pressure), gravity between 0-9 G and a pH between 0-10.
Evolution has created a vast amount of creatures, some stranger than others. Lets have a look at some of these "strange" creatures.

The Leafy seadragon (Phycodurus eques if your a biology freak) looks, as the trivial name suggests, like seaweed.

A whole genus of skinks all have green blood, and thats because their veins are filled with bile. Shown to the left is a Prasinohaema virens, popularly called the Green Green-blooded skink.
Its native to New Guinea.

The Dumbo octopus, I almost laughed the first time I saw it. I mean, WTF?! It looks like the creatures in Pacman.

Here is a Pelagic octopus. Looks like an alien if you ask me.
I think the one in the picture isn't full-size, google the species and judge by yourself. Some species of octopuses have blue blood, due to the fact that instead of hemoglobin (which uses ironatoms), they have other proteins that bonds with copper, hence the blue blood.

This is the Blobfish, Psychrolutes marcidus. Blobfish are found at depths where the pressure is several dozens of times higher than at sea level, which would likely make gas bladders inefficient. To remain buoyant, the flesh of the blobfish is primarily a gelatinous mass with a density slightly less than water; this allows the fish to float above the sea floor without expending energy on swimming. The relative lack of muscle is not a disadvantage as it primarily swallows edible matter that floats by in front it.

This is the Colossal Squid. As the name indicates, its even bigger than the Giant Squid. The largest know example weighed over 495 kg (1,091 lb). Holy shit.

It seems as if the strangest creatures in our world is found at sea! I wonder how many more unbelievable species can be found at the bottom of the sea, the Mariana Trench for example.

Pressure..

I feel like I have to write something, after all it has been 4 days. Three hours sleep before a two hour plane flight, now I'm sitting at the computer cold, hungry and angst ridden. Maybe I should make some coffee. Maybe I'll benefit more from a drink?

I've become addicted to this Swedish band, called Dungen. Especially this song. Maybe there's some hope in modern music after all.
I couldn't help but notice how much the vocalist looks like Robert Plant (from Led Zeppelin, if you didn't know, in which case : shame on you!). Turns out, they played at Roskilde in 2005, and I really hope they get booked for next years Roskilde as well. That would be totally awesome.

And in other news, it seems as if the terror group ETA will become hippies for a while! Great news, if you live in Spain. Wonder why they suddenly change stance, maybe they got a lot of money from the government to stop attacking innocents. If so, it would prove even more so that greed and money is the motive behind everything.

Switching topic once again; personally, I have problems with acne, thankfully not as bad as the homo sapiens sapiens in the picture. I read a tip which claimed that laying a newly washed towel on your pillow to sleep on would do "tremendous" changes in your face. I'm going to try it tonight for the first time. Naturally, I hope it works, not only for me, but for everyone who suffers from acne, and the social embarrassment that comes along with it. Nostrovja to everyone suffering from acne!

Advicing everyone to watch these shows

2010-09-01T05:49:00.000-07:00

Everyone should watch atleast two shows in their lives. Number 1 is Lost. Yes, I know alot of you hate this show, but give it a chance, watch every episode from the start.
I fell in love with Lost, it made me think, in contrary too most shows nowadays. Philosophical questions arise, and questions such as "what is real? How can I tell?". A lot of the characters names are real people, mainly philosophers, John Locke, Jeremy Bentham are two examples
The cinematography is excellent, it seems like a movie. Most of the actors are great, and play their role accordingly.
However, the most disappointing thing about the show, was the last episode of the last season. I won´t reveal anything regarding the ending, other than it wasn't what I hoped for.

Here's John Locke, or Terry O'Quinn as

his real name is. He is one of the main characters,

and totally awesome in every way.

The next show Ill advertise for, is House (or House MD). Its about a great, renowned doctor, and his crew of subordinates. The character House is depressed, angry, rude and annoying to most people, and he doesn't care about anything at all, except saving his patients lives.

He has a muscular disease, which forces him to use a cane, and eat Vicodin as if they were Tic Tacs. Meaning, he is a crippled doctor with a drug addiction.

Summed up, this is a funny, exciting show with snappy lines that are relevant to the plot. Now go download some House!

Everyone who appreciates good music, listen to this

2010-08-30T14:53:00.000-07:00

I guess most people today dont really appreciate classic music, but I urge you to have a listen anyways.
Needless to say, Beethoven was a master, a genius etc. Yes, he was!
His touch and sensitivity is unparalleled to this day, if you ask me.
Most of you have heard the first movement of the Moonlight Sonata at least once in your life, from various movies to games (Resident Evil). But fewer have heard the 3rd movement. Its an angry, stormy song, and personally, I can listen to it for days on end.
Now LISTEN, and be overwhelmed. Popular music is shit, this is proof.

Beethoven - Moonlight Sonata 3rd movement

This may be faggy, but..

2010-08-30T08:28:00.000-07:00

I have to vent my frustration. This story consists of me and a girl, lets call her Mary Jane.
I first met MJ when we were both drunk, at a bar. She told me she was going to be a sexologist, and I definitely had beer goggles (The amounts of booze I drank was insane, at least for my part).
When I came home that night, someone sent me a message. I didn't have the number so I didn't bother to reply.
The day after, I got a new message from the same number. And another one. FFS I thought, who the fuck keeps sending messages without getting a reply?
Turns out, it was MJs number. When I realized it, I facepalmed myself several times. Goddamnit.

So, the next weekend, I accidentally met her at the same goddamn bar, and this time I was even drunker.
Of course I ended up coming home with her, and you don't need too big of an imagination to imagine what happened.

That was the start of hell.
I got messages all day, everyday, for a week (its been two weeks since it all started).
Even though I don't reply, she sends 4-5 messages with almost no relevance whatsoever.
Take a hint right? God.

A song from me to her

I also hope she doesn't find this blog for obvious reasons.

Any tips? Have you been in a similar situation? Vent out in the comment field.

Listen to this!

2010-08-29T23:34:00.000-07:00

Before I'm heading for school, I wanna advice everyone who are sane to check out this song from an awesome band called The Sonics! They were a 60s band (but they still play today, probably spent too much money on drugs) who got put in the shadow of other bands (Beatles).
Check out their song "Strychnine"!

I also wanna give you a tip of another great band, who even fewer have heard about. They're called San Fransisco's Shiver, and were a short lived acid-rock band inspired by Blue Cheer. Too bad they only recorded one album, and that album was recorded live in studio.
Have a listen to this! If it gets to slow for your liking, listen to it from 6.00.
Well now Ive gotta go to school.
No recess!

Moral and ethics

2010-08-29T12:44:00.000-07:00

Everyone should read some goddamn philosophy. Especially muslims and jews.
It seems like those two groups don´t care about anything but their "holy" books. Anything else is crap for them it seems.

Well thats just not right! Beating your woman is not humane, neither is stoning a teen for having sex.
Christians aren't always better, there are extremists among them too.

Consequentialism FTW.

Wild rock show.

2010-08-29T12:18:00.000-07:00

This proves how great Led Zeppelin were. The energy is amazing, the sound as good as you could expect from a show from the seventies.

Like one comment said, thats 4 extremely talented individuals at work. Great :D
