3-D movies still jump out of the screen

"The film screening that night in late November 1952 was "Bwana Devil," a no-brain melodrama about rampaging lions preying on railroad builders. It might have been relegated to the lower half of double bills except that it was the first feature film ever shown in 3-D."

Bush to announce plan for smallpox vaccinations

"Live by the needle, die by the needle. I am very worried about these smallpox shots. The US Government seems to have magical foreknowledge that out of all the various bio-weapons we are assured are held by those who hate the US, that Smallpox and ONLY Smallpox is the threat. And the US Government is so certain that Smallpox is going to be unleashed by, um, well, "someone", that they are willing to force vaccinations onto the population under threat of force, even knowing ahead of time (as proven by the provisions of the Homeland Security Bill) that the vaccinations are going to kill some people."

Sperm Facts

"The average sperm count fell from 113 million sperm/ml of semen in 1940 to 66 million/ml in 1990. The volume of a single ejaculate has declined from 3.40 ml to 2.75 ml. This means that men on average are now ejaculating less than half the number of sperm as men did 50 yrs ago."
Two (sperm) heads better than one

"In the all-for-one push, the sperm start teaming up a minute or two after ejaculation, using a hook on their microscopic heads to link together. Within half an hour, the train begins to uncouple, disengaging so the act of procreation can proceed, with many of the sperm triggering a reaction in their heads — usually used to bore into the egg — that blows their own chances at fertilization."
