I might go for the Area 88 thinpak if I haven't already bought the artbox and singles by then. I've also been wondering about Nadia. That might be worth Netflixing first. I've heard little to nothing about the quality of Neo Ranga, but I'd be willing to give it a shot.

If we could only get ADV to release an Aura Battler Dunbine thinpak and a complete Mazinkaiser set similar to their recent re-release of Devil Hunter Yohko, it'd make me one happy otaku.

En gammel vampyrfilm

Og lige en eksisterende og yderst skadelig "vampyr"

Man mener at grunden til at en del patienter rent faktisk overlevede disse forsøg var at man sprøjtede ind i venerne hvor der ikke er noget tryk, derfor størkenede blodet i nålen og kom aldrig ind i patientens blodårer.

Gennemsigtigt blod
Jeg fandt også noget interressant inden for nutidens forskning. Her har galathea ekspeditionen gjort et fund ved antaktisk. Det er en særlig fisk kaldet isfisken, som har gennemsigtigt blod.

"Den kan leve i vand, der er så koldt, at dens blod burde fryse til is. Det gør det bare ikke, da den har et særligt antifryse-protein i kroppen. Saltvand fryser ved lavere temperaturer end freskvand.
Næsten gennemsigtig Fisken er nærmest helt glasagtig, og den er det eneste hvirveldyr, som ikke er i besiddelse af røde blodlegemer i sin krop."

Vekselvarmedyr
Nu da vi er i dyreuniverset som har jeg undret mig over det man tidligere kaldte "koldblodede dyr". Alle pattedyr (inkl. mennesker) og fugle er varmblodet, dvs. at vi kan øge vores stofskifte, for at producere en højere krops temperatur.

Andre dyr som f.eks slanger, edderkopper og øgler er koldblodet/vekselvarme dyr. 
Vekselvarme dyr må hente sin energi som f.eks varme, fra omgivelserne.
 Udsættes vekselvarme dyr for kuldepåvirkning, vil deres kropsfunktioner ”sætte farten ned” d.v.s. hjerteslag, blodomløb og bevægelser bliver meget langsommere. Samtidig bliver deres behov for mad og næring kraftigt reduceret.
 Derfor ser man ofte bla. krybdyr ligge og sole sig, for at samle energi.

Køleøre
Den afrikanske elefants ører er meget store (ca. 2 meter lange og 1,5 meter brede på en voksen elefant) og fungerer som elefantens »køleanlæg«. Det varme blod fra elefantens krop løber ud i den tynde hud i ørerne, hvor blodet afkøles af luften og derefter løber tilbage i kroppen.

Den lille mærkelige
En gammel børneleg går ud på at tage en stor løbebille, holde den mellem to fingre og sige remsen:

Mellemmadstyv spyt nu blod
Ellers skal du mist' dit ho'ed!

Billen skulle så spytte blod for at redde livet (i virkeligheden en stærkt ildelugtende fordøjelsesvæske, som gør den mindre fristende at æde). Man undres...

af kød og blod udtryk for, at nogen er menneskelig, dvs. har følelser og svagheder
besmitte sine hænder med blod/have blod på hænderne dræbe nogen (og derved gøre sig skyldig i en alvorlig forbrydelse)
bringe nogens blod i kog tiltrække nogen, gøre nogen vred eller ophidset
et menneske af kød og blod et menneske med følelser og svagheder
få blod på tanden få lyst til at fortsætte med noget
have blåt blod i årerne være af adelig familie
have uroligt blod være meget rastløs
koste blod, sved og tårer kræve en stor indsats
ligge i blodet være arvet fra familien
lugte blod/vejre blod blive opmærksom på noget, som kan skade andre
med koldt blod uden at være påvirket af følelser
nogens (eget) kød og blod nogens børn, nogens familie
skyde nogen ned med koldt blod skyde nogen ned uden at være påvirket af følelser
slå koldt vand i blodet dæmpe en stærk følelse, fx utålmodighed
to sig i lammets blod rense sig for sine synder
trænge til nyt blod trænge til nye medlemmer

Egne tilføjelser:
Blod er tykkere end vand
Blodsuger
Blodsbrødre
Blande blod
Blods-ed
Blodets bånd

Your neck in my neck

Grunts in my breath

Earlobe

On the mole beside my left shoulder

And I think -

      the needlepoint pillow on the couch -

It's true.

(Oh, I was so cynical!)

Et udtryk der altid har undret mig er "blåt blod i årene" - umiddelbart kan alle da blive enige om at blod er rødt! Men udtrykket henviser i virkeligheden bare til adelsmændenes blege hud, hvorpå de blå årer trådte tydeligt frem.

Blod har oftes været forbundet med styrke. Fx. skulle tilskuerene til gladiatorkampe efter endt kamp have løbet ind i arenaen og drukket blodet fra de døende dyr og gladiatorer.

Noget kan der da være om det. Blodet fra moderkagen og navlestrengen er helt specielt, idet det indeholder mange af de celler, der danner nye blodlegemer, såkaldte stamceller. Nogle forskere mener at blodet skal aftappet og opbevaret ved nedfrysning til senere brug for transplantation hvis barnet skulle få alvorlige sygdomme.

Blod er også blevet forbundet med noget dyrisk. Fx kender alle jo vampyrmyterne, der ud over at drikke blod også kunne fungere som symboler på seksul fristelse.

Lægevidenskaben mente faktisk på et tidspunkt at lidenskaben lå i blodet. Var en person sindssyg, kunne han blive kureret ved at lade sig årelade, og med blodet fjerne noget af lidenskaben.

Jeg faldt over en 13-årig pige der åbenbart græder blod. Det er en sjælden sygdom der får den lille pige til at bløde fra øjne, næse, hals og fodsoler. Lægerne ved ikke hvad, de skal stille op.

Man kan ikke lade være med at tænke på  alle de tilfælde af grædende statuer i Italien. Det mest kendte er fra byen Civitavecchia nær Rom, hvor stauen La Madonnina delle Lacrime åbenbart græd blod i 1995 .

Til sidst en lille mærkelig opfindelse: næseballonen
"Ved kraftigere næseblødning kan der i stedet benyttes en speciel næseballon, der anbringes i næsen og fyldes med så meget vand der skal til for at stoppe blødningen." Jeg får sjove billeder i hovedet... Kan ikke være helt rart.

These aren't fancy shots - just tests. But it's still my little princess (who is currently cutting two teeth) so I thought I'd share. :)

In January Kev & I were invited to play on a co-op radio show called Art of Beatz by the lovelies Eve, Kuma & Motomasa. We were stoked as we hadn't played out in a while & it was to be our first radio gig ever! But unfortunately during the show, we experienced what you call "dead air". Not knowing it at the time, we were excited to get home and to hear how we sounded from our friends and family, only for them to give us the bad news.. But with this we made the desicion to suck it up and to re-record a Live Mix featuring some of our own material and some of our favorite tunes to put up as a podcast for the Art of Beatz Radio Show.

After putting up this Mix, we received many sincere comments & our good friend Nina Mendoza (sorry Nina, I don't know how to put that little accent over the N) posted our Mix on her personal blog http://ninamendoza.wordpress.com

We can't thank her enough for doing this because eventually our dear friend Chin Injeti got hold of it and invited us to play at his AMAZING party "The Hastings Set". We have honestly never had so much fun in our whole musical career. The crowd was absolutely perfect, the dj's Nina and Bles-sed + more had the BEST taste in music!!! I could not stop dancing the whole night.. to the point I ended up spraining my foot.. but it was soo worth it!!

We met some amazing musicians who performed at that party, to name a few OMAR ( we luv you ), Noble, Nadia.. plus soo much more. Ahhhh it was soo magical =) Jeff, Aidan, Parlange from The Hastings Set.. you guys worked soo hard that night and at The Freedom party as well. You guys deserve props for sure =)

Our hearts were filled with soo much love and we couldn't stop talking about this beautiful party!! And to our surprise.. Chin invited us to play at the next Hastings Set party "FREEDOM" which was held at the Box Studio's http://www.new.facebook.com/group.php?gid=10753078052&ref=ts which yet again was another party never to forget!!! And once again I danced all night but this time I didn't hurt my foot =)

It's funny how things work out sometimes.. we never thought we'd be able to play at some of the dopest parties in town and be shown so so so much love from people who we didn't even know. Before meeting Chin, Kev & I were just a couple of geeky closet musicians with a lot of heart.. we can't express how much you have lifted us and we are forever thankful for this =)

LOVE from LOVE & ELECTRIK

Michael Moore has just released his new documentary called Slacker Uprising, about the 2004 U.S. Presidential Election, as a free online download. Brave New Films, the film distributor said "it's currently being downloaded thrice as fast as the standard blockbuster on iTunes."

From the official website, Moore said the film;

takes place in the wake of Fahrenheit 9/11, during the run-up to the 2004 election, as I traveled for 42 days across America, visiting 62 cities in a failed attempt to remove George W. Bush from office. My goal was to help turn out a record number of young voters and others who had never voted before. (That part was a success. Young adults voted in greater numbers than in any election since 18-year-olds were given the right to vote. And the youth vote was the only age group that John Kerry won.)

One of the main reasons he made the film, and the widely free distribution, is to continue encourage millions of young and new voters aged 18-29 this November 4th to vote for a change and a better U.S. The film also features performances by Eddie Vedder, Tom Morello, Viggo Mortensen, Roseanne Barr, and other celebrities who supported Moore's 2004 American tour.

On another note, here's the full video of yesterday's First 2008 U.S. Presidential Debate between Democratic Senator Barack Obama and Republican Senator John McCain. Special full report on the BBC News website here.

Now, on the track "Changes", Shiva kinda reminds me of Nadia Ali for some reason....

Oh well, that's pretty much it, I wanted to post about him, check him out @ myspace and listen to his tracks or to his podcasts.
