Aki travaille dans le JEM sur une expérience contre l’atrophie musculaire. Nos muscles fondent à vitesse grand V dans l’espace. Les processus à l’œuvre sont semblables à ceux de nombreuses maladies musculaires sur Terre mais, d’une part ils sont très rapides, et d’autre part on a la chance de récupérer très vite aussi une fois de retour au sol. Par conséquent, nos muscles intéressent énormément les chercheurs qui veulent comprendre ces phénomènes pour aider les malades. Ici, l’expérience observe les cellules musculaires et plus particulièrement un inhibiteur de l’atrophie nommé C14Cblin ainsi que le Celastrol, un composé chimique qui pourrait aider les muscles à repousser.
Aki working on the Anti-Atrophy experiment in the JEM. As our muscles waste away in space (resembling the progress of many muscular diseases on Earth) but thankfully we return to normal once we are back on firm ground, this process is very interesting for researchers. If they can understand why first of all we lose our muscle, and then how we get it back it could help people who have muscular problems. This experiment is looking at the process on a cellular level and is specifically testing atrophy inhibitors to stop muscles wasting away, called C14Cblin (it seems biologists also like their acronyms), but also a muscle accelerator to grow muscles back, called Celastrol. Here space is used as a quick way to check processes that would require more time on Earth!

Spent the morning trying to find some nice cars and then three come along all at once. Pontiac Firebird 1970 I think ...

Taken on the way to Anaheim where we saw Trans Siberian Orchestra. I have no photos for the next two days because I got hit by a vicious cold that night. Today is the first day I can somewhat function enough to turn on the computer and process photos.
April is a hard-core fitness guru who owns/operates multiple nutrition stores in Ventura County in addition to being a competitive body builder and bikini model. She trains year-round and also has the time to operate multiple businesses.
Don't tell anyone, but I also have a sneaking suspicion that I'm going to be doing her wedding next year. You just watch.
More photos from our studio shoot on my blog. Go show it some love.
Oh, and yes I realize she's topless. My wife was in the other room while we were shooting. I don't see anything wrong with a shoot like this. I never as much saw a nipple.
What has become an annual event that just keeps on keeping on, is the Auto fest Spring car Nats held in Shepparton. Here is a link to the event organisers page, autofest.com.au/.
The event has been going for over 30 years, and for many there is no better way to spend the weekend than with like-minded people, as the entrants burn rubber with an excess of horsepower, that is thankfully quite obscene : )
There was and is everything from the go to woe, handling events, drifting, and of cause burn outs! Burnouts bouncing of the rev limiting, literally hitting the red line burnouts. How much rubber do they burn, enough so I can smell it from my house nearly a mile away : ) PS the smoke signals might be cultural appropriation, so some one should bring along a Pontiac and make it officially ok : P
Jack Danniels www.jackdaniels.com/en-au has a bar, so Tennessee is represented, although in the main part, not much American iron turns up at the event in comparison to the Australian contingent and Japanese cars.
V8s are the flavor, although you might be surprised like I was this year to see a Honda S2000 turn up, a pleasant inclusion, with one of the all-time great 4 bangers in it.
Black snot is a thing, that is if you can handle the close quarters action! You might like to take some year plugs, even then for about mile you will still be able to hear the cars at it.
As a car enthusiast I enjoy the day, friendly people getting their thing on, and having a great time.
PS. Make sure you drink lots of water, and keep hydrated!
I built several muscle cars as part of my movie car collection, but my regular classic car collection largely consists of models that are less focussed on straight line acceleration. These two, a 1971 Buick GSX and a 1969 Ford Mustang Boss 302 therefore are a bit special.
