Human Nose-National Geographic


IIt may look like a strange insect , but this is actually a CT image revealing the delicate structures underlying the human nose.

The multicolored pockets, seen in a cutaway from below the nose looking up, are the paranasal sinuses—the air-filled spaces in the skull that are the bane of many an allergy sufferer.

URL Labs Websites of the week

A list of websites for killing time.
THIS IS HELL - WNUR 89.3 Chicago
From the above list:
Internet Archive: Audio Archive
Seems to be an interesting site with a multitude of material. Above is audio section. Other archives available. Note Grateful Dead. There are a lot of groups I have never heard of. Tried Of a Revolution Live at Madison. Liked them for at least one listen through. Kind of a Bruce Springstein cover band.

They say I was ticketed in Graz

The Hertz Rental Car Agency in Vienna, Austria, Hertz Rienhoff Gmbh, wrote to me and told me that I owe them 15 euro because they say I was ticketed for something I did back in April of this year in Graz, the birth place of Arnold Schwartzenrgger http://raumfahrer.wordpress.com/grazring/. Hertz Rienhoff said I owe them the 18 euro because they were an intermediary for me. That is I still owe the City of Graz for the traffic ticket, but I also owe Hertz Rienhoff Gmbh the 15 euro because I received the ticket while using one of their rent cars. I wrote back to Hertz Rienhoff and told them that I did nothing wrong. I parked where the Graz hotel people told me to park. Nobody yelled at me in Graz. Nobody gave me a ticket. Then just yesterday Hertz Rienhoff billed me another three euro for their first reminder letter. When I turned the rent car in, I paid Hertz Rienhoff 1,068 euro. They made good money from my rental! The car was damage free, and I was fully covered by their insurance. I am taking my case to the Hertz CEO. I tell you from the bottom of my heart that this is going to get ugly! A..holes.

She plays at the same on-line poker site I do. She also plays on a few others. Supposedly she started playing on-line when she was 15. Hence the name.
