pre-cum n. 1. tasty beverage.2.or pre-ejaculatory fluid is a clear, mucus-like liquid that can be expelled through the urethra and out of the tip of the penis during male sexual arousal. It is secreted from the Cowper glands, and may contain both sperm and STDs. There is no way to control pre-cum, and the amount can vary from man to man and situation to situation.(Cory Silverberg, uggggh, -About.com) 3.arriving early with advance notice.Thoughtful,courteous. 4.Additive(hom.euph.)-an amount of money paid above the regular price.

High-power slime from the hagfish - one of nature's miracles

djsunkid says...

from wikipedia:

It has also recently been discovered that the mucus excreted by the hagfish is unique in that it includes strong, threadlike fibres similar to spider silk. What is interesting about hagfish slime is that it is fibre-reinforced. No other slime secretion known is reinforced with fibres in the way Hagfish slime is. The fibres are about as fine as spider silk (averaging two micrometres), but can be twelve centimetres long. When the coiled fibres leave the Hagfishes' 'slime' gland, they unravel quickly to their full length without tangling. Research continues into potential uses for this or a similar synthetic gel or of the included fibres. Some possibilities include new biodegradable polymers, space-filling gels, and as a means of stopping blood flow in accident victims and surgery patients.


Pretty neat!

here's a little food for thought (pun intended) mucophagy may be a natural and even healthy activity, which exposes the digestive system to bacteria accumulated in the mucus, thereby helping to strengthen the immune system.

chew on that!

Man from India Claims Immunity to Electric Shock

andrew says...

Well many factors can contribute to his "magic."
1.) The man's skin may have a low resistivity rating and a high cross sectional area (R = Lr/A)
2.) The man is placing himself in parallel with the fan and an additional resistance is added between them to lower the current that is reaching his branch; however the man needs to be there to complete the circuit.

It doesn't matter if voltage is 230V because the fan doesn't need nearly that much to turn on.
Humans can very easily connect a circuit (especially through a mucus membrane) and can withstand a few amps of current. Who also knows what he has on the left and right of him when he is performing his stunts. Also many other factors including "are his feet properly grounded" are questions that the camera can't answer. It is alot harder to electricute yourself then you may think. Also remember that 10A DC is much much less deadly than 10A AC.
