Suffering? What would Romney understand of suffering – either in reality or conceptually? After his “47% of people are freeloaders who do not care about their own well-being (and who believe they are somehow entitled to food!?)” comments (which sounded very real and sincere, particularly since he did not know he was being watched or filmed), I do not see how anyone can trust him or regard anything else he says as honest. (But we already know how little facts matter.) When it was not the facts, it was just disingenuous bullshit – him stating with false concern in his voice that he is running for president to help the middle class and because people are suffering. My debate viewing was a leisurely affair, alone in the office in the middle of the night spreading blobs of frosting onto cupcakes while listening to Mitt Romney go on an aggressive attack – which strikes me as both uncivilized and unbecoming behavior in a potential president, particularly when lying, bluffing and playing fast and loose with the facts. I wanted to make sure I would get to see the entire US presidential debate. This week I took the baked bounty to the office the night before serving and spent most of the night carrying the baked stuff from parking garage to the various floors of the building (I distribute the baked stuff to several floors so people can more easily access it) and setting everything up on plates as well as frosting the cupcakes (which I don’t do until I get to the office, making them far easier to transport).
I wish I had pictures of, for example, the inside of the dulce de leche cake, in order to display the ribbon of dulce de leche that is baked into the subtly dulce de leche-flavored cake.īut, as I wrote, I can be so forgetful. Sometimes I do this during the baking process, but sometimes I cannot be bothered, leaving me to at least photograph things just before they are eaten, but sometimes, while I manage to take a few pics, I don’t get to the point where I cut a cake or cupcake open to get a good view of what the inside looks like. When “staging” the baked-good offerings in my office (which involves a considerable amount of labor that goes well above and beyond the mere baking of these things), the process involves packaging, packing, transporting and then somehow getting everything from the car into the office, which is on several floors with varying levels of available space and quality for “preparing”, and then hopefully feeling motivated enough to take pictures of the final products. Immediately after death, muscle motor neurons (the nerves that create movement within the tissue), which are triggered by electrical signals, still contain some membrane potential (difference in ion concentrations).Sometimes I can be so forgetful. So why, without signals sent and received via the brain and nervous system, or a beating heart, does dead tissue continue to move? Although the brain and heart are not functioning, there are cells that can still respond to stimuli, for example, added sodium. Human corpses are also known to randomly jerk and move limbs for hours after death – although this is due to a different mechanism from that in the dancing squid. It may shock some viewers as the chef slices into the live fish that it continues to move after being chopped into pieces – however, the Cephalopoda dies relatively quickly, and its continued movements post-mortem are explained below. Sashimi, a Japanese dish typically served as a starter, is defined as a thinly sliced raw food that has been prepared in this manner for centuries. Soy sauce, which is rich in sodium, can also be used to exacerbate muscle movement after death. The Cephalopoda seems to perform an eerie post mortem jig after its body has been removed.
Posted by Thearchipelagos via YouTube.ĭescribed by the uploader as a squid, although it appears to be a cuttlefish, the chef dices the animal in a particular fashion in order to serve as sashimi. The explanation is a reasonably simple one, and also a pretty common phenomenon as well – we also see the same jerking movements from fresh raw frogs’ legs and diced up squid.įrogs' legs dancing after being laced with salt.
