http://distractedpassenger.blogspot.com/2009/12/octopi-fond-of-coconut-shells.html
A librarian's list of amusements). Tuesday, December 15, 2009. Octopi Fond of Coconut Shells. I love how this octopus carries the coconut shells with him/her. Awkward, yet graceful. Strangely intelligent spineless creatures. I heart cephalopods. I bet they're quite philosophical. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Astronomy Pic of the Day. Crave: C-net's Gadget BLog.

Distracted Passenger: Vitamin D
http://distractedpassenger.blogspot.com/2009/10/vitamin-d.html
A librarian's list of amusements). Friday, October 9, 2009. Aside from watching speedy students on Glee dance their pants off on "Vitamin D", what else about vitamin D? Well, there's this really interesting snippet from Neatorama about how people in Northern Latitudes don't get enough sunlight to make their D quota. They needed to get more of it from food sources. Which is why people in Northern latitudes evolved the ability to drink milk at some point. Voila, more vitamin D available = fewer rickets?

A librarian's list of amusements). Thursday, May 14, 2009. A gem I found while reading Facebook updates. Thanks to Margy! This is the third time I'm watching it.

Distracted Passenger: Bats and Blowing Teapots
http://distractedpassenger.blogspot.com/2009/09/bats-and-blowing-teapots.html
A librarian's list of amusements). Thursday, September 17, 2009. Bats and Blowing Teapots. Sounds a bit dirty, doesn't it? Well, thankfully the bats and teapot abuse are not related. British photographer Kim Taylor (a man named Kim) used a complex setup of flash bulbs and motion sensors to snap crystal-clear pictures of bats sipping water on the fly. Then of course we have people blowing into teapots full of water. Pour me a cup! From Neatorama and Geeks Are Sexy. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Distracted Passenger: Imaginary Gastric Bands and Glee
http://distractedpassenger.blogspot.com/2009/05/imaginary-gastric-bands-and-glee.html
A librarian's list of amusements). Saturday, May 23, 2009. Imaginary Gastric Bands and Glee. Do you have a hole in your soul where Arrested Development used to live? Plus there's a musical element to the series - as in, singing. AWESOME! Hulu has the pilot episode of Glee for free:. And in other news. For the purposes of weight loss, a woman's hypnotist convinced her that she had gastric bypass surgery. The Matrix or Total Recall, anyone? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
