Impressive!
If you're a scientist and you observe a swallowed eel escaping its fish predator via the gills, you get an X-ray camera system to see what's what. And you see exactly what kind of acrobatic shenanigans eels use to squirm out. Also, HELL YES my @cnn.com article about it has excerpts of X-ray video 🧪
After being swallowed alive, Japanese eels were able to escape from a predator fish’s stomach and swim to freedom through the fish’s gills, new research shows.

Really?! I wasn't aware but I'll take it!! 😊
I worked as a Professor in the Lunar & Planetary Lab at the University of AZ, Tucson, for 17.5 yrs. I never met #LindaRonstadt tho' I saw her once in the coffee shop I frequented every day. She was & still is very smart & wise. Enjoy her witty words about Trump holding a rally in her building.
\2... Party to be Pres of the US, the setting sun disappeared below the horizon *in a Green Flash*!! What an omen! I've already given lots of $$$ to the Dems but now I'm pumped to ensure this woman becomes the leader of the free world. It needs her! ❤️
I am shaking w/ emotion by what I just saw: THE best political performance I have EVER seen by ANYONE. #KamalaHarris' acceptance speech had it all, but mostly it had authority, authenticity, warmth & love. Moved me to tears😭 And I kid you not, as she accepted the nomination of the Democratic ..\1
