A fine line

How do you distinguish between being arrogant and just being confident? Its such a fine line and sometimes it gets crossed. How do you tell people that they are kind of full of themselves? And to not be "SO" confindent in themselves or is that you are just not confident in yourself so you see their confidence as annoying and arrogant? That is my random thought of the day.

Pumpkins

Yes I did wear rubber gloves if not I may have vommited all over. Yucky squishyhess NO THANKS

First you have to kill the the pumpkin by stabbing it with a large kitchen knife ;)

I like pumpkins YUMMY!!

This is what it looked like right before I carved it.

He could not figure out where the noise of the poking the holes was coming from.

Ya it was really cool but word of advice don't carve your pumpkins two weeks before Halloween and then it being 75 degrees outside. Pumpkins don't fare very well so we never got to put them out :(

Body Worlds

I recently went to see the Body Worlds 3 exhibit at the Leonardo with my best friend Staci and her wonderful sister and husband and baby. The exhibition's developer and promoter is a German anatomist named Gunther von Hagens, who invented the plastination technique in the late 1970s at the University of Heidelberg. It was probably one of the most amazing things I have seen. All the human bodies and organs are real and I learned SOOOO much from this.

Gunther von Hagens’ BODY WORLDS 3 & The Story of the Heart presents the form, function, complexity and beauty of the human body. Featuring a unique collection of more than 200 authentic human specimens including whole-body plastinates, organs and translucent body slices, this exhibit offers visitors profound insights into the human body, health and disease, and the intricate world of the cardiovascular system.

This the poster out side the Leonardo, and that is Tricia (she didn't know I was talking this picture)

This is the same picture just a different angle, the pictures that follow this are of real human bodies I just want to forewarn you, I do not believe it will be gross to anyone haha. Also I kinda was not suppose to be taking pictures so some are not that clear cause they are shot with a cell phone (which some are not that bad for that) and very secretively ( I am a sneaky little devil) ENJOY!!

This picture is or real human lung of a smoker. I was shocked when I saw these, there was one that was filled with hole. I learned this information "If you smoke 20 cigarettes an day it is equal to a coffee cup of TAR a year" so drink up.

This was probably my favorite part it was sad but very interesting ( I say sad because babies had to die in order for this section to be possible) But they had these test tubes of different stages and the stage before you get to this one in the box was the most fascinating to me.

I can not remember what stage of pregnancy it was but the embryo was about the size of my thumb nail and it already had little tiny hand and little nubby fingers and toes. I was so small I was amazed at what it had (I know you can see these things in books but it is far more amazing to see it first hand) This baby below I believe was 16 weeks (not sure though)

I really wish this would have turned out better, but its a woman's body cut into three sections and you can just see all the insides.

Same with thin one, this man (obviously haha) is cut from his belly button up and you can see his spine is exposed and you can see his brain.

This was one of my favorites probably because I am a dancer and fascinated with the splits. If you can see his back is cut open and flipped open. What you can't see is in his hand above he is holding his organs i his hand. I was amazed at how big the are and that they all fit in our tiny little midsections.

I took a picture of the foot close up because I think when feet are pointed it is beautiful I just love the was they look.

This picture I will admit is kind of gross, its are intestine I raveled.

This is probably one the best pictures I took (there are two of the same one is a little closer) this is man and a woman I can not remember what the pose was called. Bit the man (on the right) his spine and organs are coming out the back and the woman it is her spine brain and nervous system.

Some little tidbit information i learned. The human hearts pumps 1,800 (yes 1,800) gallons of blood a day ( i think it was like 16 quarts per min) It takes 15 muscles to smile. I also learned that it is possible to die from a broken heart, it is like having a heart attack you have shortness of breath and all the but the only difference is people die from a broken hear have no signs of blood clots or things like that. There was so much more information that i wont bore you with but I would highly recommend checking it out.
