The Arctic comb jelly or sea nut (Mertensia ovum) is commonly found in the surface (top 50 meters) in cold, northern waters. Like other cydippid ctenophores, it has two tentacles fringed with smaller tentacles, which are dappled with colloblasts. Colloblasts are specialized cells that, upon contact with other organisms, act as a glue, allowing the comb jelly to pull the food to its mouth with little resistance. This species has light bioluminescence in blues and greens, but the rainbow effect in this photo is caused by light refracting off of its comb-like rows of cilia, which propel it through the water.

I love my liberal city, 150,000+ women, men and children marched yesterday! We had a wall of people 3.6 miles long marching from Judkins park in the International District to the Space Needle. We were the third largest march in the country only L.A. and D.C. were larger. Thank-you one and all for walking.

(a true diehard electronics geek (or a retired engineer) might think this looks like a graphical representation of the response of a feedforward comb filter.
Not me.
I might have once, but I'm much better now :)

Madurai - Vaigai river
What was he looking for, here in the Vangai River ???
Didn't we all looked for small treasures when we were young and keeping them all life long?
Enjoy dreams and imagine a beautiful world, as long you can, all your life, with wondering eyes of an eternal youth to look through the surface of the water to discover a rich world. Don't let your mind get too much troubled by waves coming from elsewhere.
Comb the river of life.
