i saw nine inch nails the other night. pretty rad, although i really got sucked into that whole hype. they were awesome, Terminal 5 is one of the worst venues ever way too huge hot and oversold. Really got in the way of things. but they were great, fuck peter murphy by the way. i have a few shots and videos all i took on ifone 3gs.

this is extremely interesting

"The Bloop is the name given to an ultra-low frequency underwater sound detected by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration several times during the summer of 1997. The source of the sound remains unknown..."

"The sound, traced to somewhere around 50° S 100° W (South American southwest coast), was detected repeatedly by the Equatorial Pacific Ocean autonomous hydrophone array, which uses U.S. Navy equipment originally designed to detect Soviet submarines. According to the NOAA description, it "rises rapidly in frequency over about one minute and was of sufficient amplitude to be heard on multiple sensors, at a range of over 5,000 km." According to scientists who have studied the phenomenon it matches the audio profile of a living creature but there is no known animal that could have produced the sound. If the sound did come from an animal, it would reportedly have to be several times the size of the largest known animal on Earth, the Blue Whale.^[1]"

ohhh

so, about 5 years ago i was in paris. i went to a cemetery called Père Lachaise Cemetery (which i had no idea what it was called until today) If you or anyone you know is going to be in the land of bread and fine hamsandwiches; this place is so seriously crucial to your visit. there are thousands of amazing individuals buried there throughout the sands of time; and you get to stand a mere six feet away from them. easily one of the most incredible places ive ever been thus far. if you are a photographyer, vampire, or simply human this is the place for you. here are some shots; none of which i took nor do any justice, the scale of it along with the spiritual power looming in there is incredible. im gonna have to look through my old HD's to find my pics, i took a ton.

I dont know how i feel about this, but heres a "virtual tour" http://www.pere-lachaise.com/

"...ah, those were the days"

**~~lucid decapitation~~**

"Here, then, is what I was able to note immediately after the decapitation: the eyelids and lips of the guillotined man worked in irregularly rhythmic contractions for about five or six seconds … I waited for several seconds. The spasmodic movements ceased.

The face relaxed, the lids half closed on the eyeballs, leaving only the white of the conjunctiva visible, exactly as in the dying whom we have occasion to see every day in the exercise of our profession, or as in those just dead.

It was then that I called in a strong, sharp voice: ‘Languille!’ I saw the eyelids slowly lift up, without any spasmodic contractions … Next Languille’s eyes very definitely fixed themselves on mine and the pupils focused themselves … After several seconds, the eyelids closed again, slowly and evenly, and the head took on the same appearance as it had had before I called out.

It was at that point that I called out again and, once more, without any spasm, slowly, the eyelids lifted and undeniably living eyes fixed themselves on mine with perhaps even more penetration than the first time. Then there was a further closing of the eyelids, but now less complete. I attempted the effect of a third call; there was no further movement and the eyes took on the glazed look which they have in the dead.

I have just recounted to you with rigorous exactness what I was able to observe. The whole thing had lasted twenty-five to thirty seconds."

-Dr. Beaurieux,  5:30am on June 28th, 1905. As written in Archives d’Anthropologie Criminelle

A more recent account tells of an accidental decapitation in an automobile. In 1989, a U.S. Army veteran who served in the Korean war was riding in a taxi with a friend when it collided with a truck. The witness was pinned to his seat, and the friend was decapitated by the collision:

My friend’s head came to rest face up, and (from my angle) upside-down. As I watched, his mouth opened and closed no less than two times. The facial expressions he displayed were first of shock or confusion, followed by terror or grief. I cannot exaggerate and say that he was looking all around, but he did display ocular movement in that his eyes moved from me, to his body, and back to me. He had direct eye contact with me when his eyes took on a hazy, absent expression . . . and he was dead.
