during the opposition-led street demonstrations in Sanna on February 3rd, 2011, several
protests began wearing makeshift protective armor and headgear to shield themselves
from the police forces and random projectiles, using whatever they could find.
Bread Helmet (also known as “Bread Helmet Guy”) is an emerging photoshop trend based
on a news photograph of an Yemeni protester...

The photograph was taken by Reuters reporter Khaled Abdullah and subsequently
syndicated through major news networks around the world.
On the following day, the image of protester was reblogged throughout major online
news sites as well as online humor and viral news blogs, including BoingBoing, EatLiver,
Funny Junk, MemeGenerator, BuzzFeed and others.

47. Penaeid shrimp that
typically inhabit estuaries
and regularly encounter
high temperatures and low
oxygen levels will be used
to examine whether
bacterial infection can alter
anaerobic pathways.
In these studies, shrimp
infected with pathogenic
bacteria will be exercised on
small treadmills and
changes in lactate, oxygen
consumption, and activity
monitored.
These experiments will
indicate whether sublethal
infection can suppress
normal respiratory activity
and limit recovery.
The goal of these studies is
to better understanding
how pathogens can impact
respiration and thereby
disrupt metabolic pathways
during activity.
