FRIED CALAMARI
Recipe courtesy The Food Network

Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
1 pound clean squid with tentacles, bodies cut into 1/3- to 1/2-inch-thick rings
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons dried parsley
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 lemons, cut into wedges
1 cup simple tomato sauce, recipe follows or jarred marinara sauce, warmed
Pour enough oil into a heavy large saucepan to reach the depth of 3 inches. Heat over medium heat to 350 degrees F. Mix the flour, parsley, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Working in small batches, toss the squid into the flour mixture to coat. Carefully add the squid to the oil and fry until crisp and very pale golden, about 1 minute per batch. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer the fried calamari to a paper-towel lined plate to drain.
Place the fried calamari and lemon wedges on a clean plate. Sprinkle with salt. Serve with the marinara sauce.

Cameras vs. Animals vs. Metal

this post was erased because i decided i hated it.

from national geographic.com:

"A coil of teeth caps the lower jaw of a sculpture of a 13-foot (4-meter) whorl-tooth shark, or Helicoprion, a fish genus that lived about 250 million years ago.

Artist Gary Staab depicts the animal's jaw as something of a spiral conveyor belt, in which new teeth would advance to replace old ones (concealed here by skin) . But the true arrangement and purpose of the teeth remains a mystery. Some scientists suggest that it may have operated like a spiked whip, possibly curled underneath the lower jaw like a weaponized elephant trunk. "

the goblin shark

very rare and from japan... apparently friendly, though horribly ugly. one fourth of its weight belongs to its huge liver, and it has sensory cells dotted on its nose, probably to help it find food where it swims, about 4,000 ft deep.

pure Alcoholica goodness. with a warm Cliff center.

amazing. one can't help but wonder how the whole "i'm just a girl, not yet a woman" thing will go down.
but really interesting in terms of personality development and identity.

ANIMAL OF THE WEEK

so it's the beginning of the week and you know what that means... ANIMAL OF THE WEEK! (i realize i amuse only myself).

this week feels fat so there are TWO animals. lucky, lucky! they look the same though.


in the spirit of Valentine's Day, may i introduce the AFRICAN WILD ASS. she's a hardy animal which is well adapted to desert life in northeast ethiopia and somalia. able to sustain water loss up to 30% of her body weight, she can also drink enough water in 2-5 minutes to restore fluid loss. kind of like a Warcraft pet. anyway... this species of ass was domesticated about 6,000 years ago, and is mentioned frequently in the Bible. ... although domestic donkeys exist all over the world, only a few hundred of their ancestors survive. populations are decreasing as a result of hunting, competition with livestock for limited desert resources, and hybridization with the domestic donkey. also the embarrassment of their name in modern times.




a relative to the Wild Ass, the ONAGER is one of the largest species of the asiatic variety, living only in iran. he is the switest of all equids, with recorded running speeds up to 70km/h. similar to the African Ass, this species lives in dry, semi-desert regions which are hot in the day and cool at night. due to all the problems in the middle east, onagers are now found in just two protected areas, yet still at risk from poachers.

SAVE THE ASSES!!!

ps. i just realized their scientific name is Equis Asinus. Awesome.

Animal of the Week

The Sumatran Rabbit.
Indonesia.

One of the rarest and most elusive animals on the planet, it was thought to be extinct until accidentally photographed in 1998. The distinctive brown stripes on the face and body of this rabbit enable it to blend perfectly with its rainforest habitat. The shy nocturnal animal is so rare and well hidden that the local people do not have a name for it in their own language and many do not even realise that it exists. No living animals have been seen or studied by scientists since the 1930s. Occasional anecdotal reports of the species from forest clearing projects (which are also the biggest threat to their existence) are the only indication that it still survives today. Its eyes glow red because of its special super powers which include invisibility and the ability to run at top speed backwards. hello? is anyone even reading this?

And this one's for me. I think I just heard Steve Nicks choke on her tongue. Dammit i should have used this track for my reel!

(scroll down, it will make more sense...)
Jonas. buddy. why?

This one's for you, Renza.

Zoos are wacky places!

tonight there is a full moon. it is also a dark moon, which is known as the most ominous of all the moons. what it means scientifically is that the moon is so close to the sun that you cannot see it at sunrise or sunset. in january it is also called a Wolf Moon. maybe that's why today has felt a little crazy. my post-teen wolf is howlin. this image is also my new tattoo.

dear women: wear lead clothes.

50 whole views! insanity!

ok. this is awesome. check out this chain letter going around. my mom didn't exactly forward it to me, but it is indeed the kind she would. (sorry mom--but there are plenty of ways the city is out to get me as it is, and by the time the chain letter finds me, i am sure to already be raped/dead/infected with an STD from touching the subway poles). its even better than the dropped $5 bill = serial killer hoax.

Subject: Fw: PF See Thru Lens

This email is to be circulated for all girls and ladies - MUST READ!!!

Hi lady friends,

The next time when you see someone (stranger) using a Digital Video Cam or Digital Camera pointing at you, don't think you are pretty and gorgeous.

You are in danger in fact!! You might land yourself as a "starring" or "porn actress" in the XXX web-sites showing your naked body all over the world unawared. There are many pervert people doing this currently.

Don't think they are just tourists or reporters. Please be awakened and alert when you are doing shopping in Big Malls, Airports, LRT Stations, Cinemas, Beaches, Hotels so forth.......!!!!

Nowadays, technology in using high-tech cameras fixed with a type of lens called PF LENS, which can see through clothings. The PF LENS is able to see through most types of clothes, for example, thin clothes, tight clothes, sun dresses, swimsuits and so forth. Be awared that this means that the person taking a snap on you can actually see your naked body both "upper & underpart" through the external garment. In other words, the PF Lens allows the camera man to "see through" someone's clothes.

Suggest that whenever you suspect some strangers holding a camera or Digicam pointing at you, try to avoid facing him (face to face). Quickly use your handbag or any shopping bags in hand to cover your whole front body (in case), Next, escape from the scene as soon as possible. This is to save a situation from landing yourself into the hands of evil. Recently, many girls and housewives' naked photo were vastly distributed in the internet websites without them knowing. Perverts intentionally move around places where ladies usually frequent and took their nude shots.

Imagine, one day your male friend come to you and tell you, he saw your naked pose in the web, how are you to face the situation????? Please take this as something very important and don't take this lightly in order to save a shameful and distress situation.....!!!!!!

Finally, If you are concern with many of your good lady friends, please make an effort to forward this message to them so that they are also saved from being victims of those perverts preying around them unawared...!!!
