apart perhaps from a meteor crashing into the frozen pond, i don't know what creates these -- there were several of them there.
misc. ideas and suggestions for your new puppy
There are a variety of new toys on the market intended to challenge your dog's thinking skills. These are especially valuable for puppies between 3-5 months for Neuron development.
The above items are also a form of "Kong" (hard rubber items that hold treats and encourage chewing. Twofold purpose: teething and "intellectual challenge".
Elm
BY SYLVIA PLATH
For Ruth Fainlight
I know the bottom, she says. I know it with my great tap root:
It is what you fear.
I do not fear it: I have been there.
Is it the sea you hear in me,
Its dissatisfactions?
Or the voice of nothing, that was your madness?
Love is a shadow.
How you lie and cry after it
Listen: these are its hooves: it has gone off, like a horse.
All night I shall gallop thus, impetuously,
Till your head is a stone, your pillow a little turf,
Echoing, echoing.
Or shall I bring you the sound of poisons?
This is rain now, this big hush.
And this is the fruit of it: tin-white, like arsenic.
I have suffered the atrocity of sunsets.
Scorched to the root
My red filaments burn and stand, a hand of wires.
Now I break up in pieces that fly about like clubs.
A wind of such violence
Will tolerate no bystanding: I must shriek.
The moon, also, is merciless: she would drag me
Cruelly, being barren.
Her radiance scathes me. Or perhaps I have caught her.
I let her go. I let her go
Diminished and flat, as after radical surgery.
How your bad dreams possess and endow me.
I am inhabited by a cry.
Nightly it flaps out
Looking, with its hooks, for something to love.
I am terrified by this dark thing
That sleeps in me;
All day I feel its soft, feathery turnings, its malignity.
Clouds pass and disperse.
Are those the faces of love, those pale irretrievables?
Is it for such I agitate my heart?
I am incapable of more knowledge.
What is this, this face
So murderous in its strangle of branches? -
Its snaky acids hiss.
It petrifies the will. These are the isolate, slow faults
That kill, that kill, that kill.

I made this cake for my friend and lab mate Andy's thesis defense. It was chocolate cake with a white chocolate cream cheese frosting. Yum!
Considering the many neurons comprising a person's brain, it is fitting that the same neurons used to imagine and build and market and maintain and operate a jet airliner (contrail in the sky above the sculpture) also are the same neurons that make possible the concept and creation of this 2010 outdoor sculpture by Roxy Paine at the Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park in Grand Rapids, pictured (in part) here.

These are typical Golgi stained neurons in the epileptic human dentate gyrus. Even more beautiful viewed large.
Des p'tits neurones dans les cerveaux
Qui disparaissent de jours en jours
Dans les p'tits bois les p'tits discours
Des petits rois dans les basses cours
Des p'tits qui s'cachent des p'tits qu'on cache
Des p'tits qu'on joue à pile ou face
Des p'tits qui vont grossir les ventres
Des p'tits caissiers dans les carrefours
Des p'tits problèmes de récession
Des p'tits ministres dans les prisons
Des p'tits pour payer ton loyer
Des p'tits pour la communauté
Tapez tapez sur les claviers
Des pompes funèbres aux cours d'écoles
Faut voir comme les p'tits sont frigués
Y'a de la griffe sur les guiboles
Des p'tits insectes sur les fleurs
Des p'tits bugs dans le computer
Des p'tits pour l'eau des p'tits pour l'air
Des p'tits pour pourrir l'atmosphère
Marchez marchez les p'tits pinçons
Les petits rois les petits cons
Des p'tits pour vendre qui on est
A la criée sur les marchés

shetal took microscopy photos of it under a 100x magnification microscope. it was my birthday gift from her :)
AWESOME!
Insect insulin like peptide 7 (Ilp7) expressiong neurons in the insect (Drosophila) central nervous system. Acquired with a Leica SP5 confocal microscope.
No las controlamos la mayorÃa de veces. Cuando sentimos un escalafrio, nos estremecemos, cuando nos excitamos, adrenalina. El cuerpo obedece de forma natural a sus impulsos, por eso es tan difÃcil controlarlos. Claro que algunas veces tenemos impulsos que preferimos no controlar, que más tarde preferirÃamos haber controlado. El cuerpo es un esclavo de sus impulsos. Pero hay algo que nos vuelve humanos y que podemos controlar. Después de la tormenta, después de la carrera, después de revivir un momento pasado, podemos relajarnos y limpiar nuestra mente. Podemos intentar olvidar el pasado para volver a ser incontrolados.
