Animals in Womb.

posted by qtjoel on 12.30.09 at 2:59 am

The pictures of animals in the womb before contraception were produced by Peter Chinn using 3D ultrasound scans, computer graphics, and tiny camera. It's for a new series by National Geographic called "Extraordinary Animals in the Womb". Very awesome to say the least, very awesome indeed. Check out the rest of the pictures here. I like how all the animals are cute and then they saved the last picture as a horrific looking shark.

I actually found this really interesting...Very gross, but interesting. I wonder if this stuff will one day take over the ocean.

Bed Bugs!!!

From watching the video...I don't know what's the difference between a bed bug and a mosquito other than the fact that mosquitos can attack you while you are asleep or awake.

At first they made me feel bad for the bee and I hated the spider. Then the way that the spider just walked off with the bee made me think "Good job ole' spidey....Good job...".

Infinite Photograph

You need to check out this National Geographic thing. It’s called Infinite Photograph. It’s a flash app that takes a crap load (300,000) of photos from archives and users and turns it into a huge mosaic.

Wish there was more variety. The same pics seem to be used over and over again.

Do NOT Feed Your Dog Chocolate

I didn’t know this till today but chocolate is really bad for dogs. From National Geographic:

Chocolate contains theobromine, a naturally occurring stimulant found in cocoa beans that can cause vomiting, heart problems, seizures, and even death for dogs.

They even have a handy dandy chart to see how different size dogs are affected by different types of chocolate.

Now I know not to feed Chloe any chocolate.
