Harry Puffer And The Cigs Curse
2008-03-17 08:33:00 Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe's co-stars have warned him of serious health problems if he doesn't quit smoking 20 cigarettes a day. But, he doesn't take any notice. Radcliffe, 18, has been nicknamed Harry Puffer on the set of the new Potter movie as he rushes off to smoke between takes. He is reportedly smoking a pack a day and this is worrying his friends, thesun.co.uk reports. He has recently been smoking up to 20 cigarettes a day. Producers are also afraid that his image could be damaged if he is seen smoking in public. "He's been having late nights out with stars like Kevin Spacey and Stephen Fry and seems to have picked up bad habits ...," according to sources.
Tetrodotoxin: Of Zombies and Puffer Fish
2008-02-29 17:51:00 Tetrodotoxin is the stuff of magic. It causes paralysis, anesthesia, loss of speech, but not loss of consciousness. It slows heart rate and respiration to levels that are barely detectable. Thus, poisoned victims are often reported to be in a zombie-like trance, or having risen from the dead once heartbeat and respiration return to normal. ...

Arothron Meleagris - Spotted Puffer. Yellow ain't the regular color...
2008-02-14 01:21:00 OK, so I can't get enough of the puffer that Cathy took photos of yesterday. Here's the regular coloration of the spotted puffers we see, it's from a photo I took about 3 years back. Quite a contrast from the yellow colored one for sure. The shot below is another pic that Cathy took as the puffer from yesterday was just inside the mouth of a cave/puka (puka is essentially Hawaiian for "hole").Apparently the yellow coloration is more common in other parts of the Indo-Pacific, but for Hawaii it's a pretty unusual sighting. It was definitely the highlight of yesterdays outing, even though they saw a Great Barracuda, a frogfish, a couple of eagle rays, a couple groups of psychedelic wrasses, an octopus and other cool stuff.

Deadly Puffer Fish,Fugu,Sold as Food.--Photos
2007-09-25 14:55:00 BANGKOK, Thailand - Unscrupulous vendors in Thailand have been selling meat of the deadly puffer fish disguised as salmon, causing the deaths of more than 15 people over the past three years, a doctor said Thursday.Although banned since 2002, puffer fish continues to be sold in large quantities at local markets and restaurants, said Narin Hiransuthikul of Bangkok's Chulalonkorn University Hospital."Some sellers dye the meat of puffer fish and make it look like salmon which is very dangerous," Narin said.Narin said over the past three years more than 15 people have died and about 115 were hospitalized from eating the fish.The ovaries, liver and intestines of the puffer fish contain tetrodotoxin, a poison so potent that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration says it can "produce rapid and violent death."The fish is called fugu in Japan, where it is consumed by thrill-seeking Japanese gourmets for whom the risk of poisoning adds piquancy.Every year, there are reports of people dying or...
From the baking packman to the Pufferqueen
2007-08-24 10:45:00 A cordial hello to the homeland front!! I live still and enjoy gladly and lively my existence in Australia! My fat cold in Thailand, which jet-lay to party-after-sore and mine after the very adventurous journey from BKK to Sydney is already long again forgotten. My thoughts of the return are verpufft. Not least, because my ROLE requires my full attention as Pufferqueen in the Cuckoo. Jaja, quite right, I roasts and brutzel from Thursday to Sunday these leckeren small potato fritters in the kitchen of Karins Bavarian restaurant. But that, I does not only have to strike itself with vegetable, fruit, Saucen and other kitchen boys. Dat makes kitchen tonus and training Spaessken after two weeks, and besides I learn now finally Aussie Slaign. Dirty refuge is my kitchen favorite. Property for a long time no longer so cordially laughed. It is a urechte 60iger years fun cheek. completely contrary to our Hansicheffe. That has nen stick in the A. after getaner work and damp Aeuglein sleeps I i...

Kartoffelpuffer mit Apfelmus
2007-07-27 00:00:00 Ich muss gestehen: Ich gehöre zu den Frauen, die noch nie im Leben selbst Kartoffelpuffer gemacht haben. Und wenn das so weitergeht, wird das auch so bleiben. Früher machte die immer meine Oma, dann meine Schwiegermutter und jetzt der Kochnachwuchs. Am Wochenende haben die Kinder bei Oma auf dem Land Kartoffeln ausgegraben, die sie heute zu Kartoffelpuffern bzw. ostpreußisch Flinsen verarbeitet haben. Mit der Kartoffelreibe der amerikanischen Küchenhilfe auch überhaupt kein Problem. Dazu gab's Apfelmus aus dem Glas, aber selbst eingemacht. Einfache Dinge können so gut sein. Lecker! Oma hat sogar ihr "Geheimrezept" verraten, beim Aufschreiben gingen die Zwiebeln verloren, aber die gehören definitiv dazu.

King Kong (Anuffer Puffer)
2006-08-07 00:00:02 Personally, I had a hard time seeing the fish in this picture at first. Once you look at it though, a most excellently interesting face… just like a friendly puppy… appears. Now King Kong has a competitor for cute! A fish of many names…this Puffer is called everything from King Kong to an arrowhead, and even [...]
A tale of Amazon Puffers
2006-08-07 00:00:02 Who’d have thought? Pufferfish, both freshwater and marine varieties, require shellfish in their diet to avoid overgrown teeth and frequent visits to the dentist! Though adorable looking fish that can win your affection, the pufferfish are not for the novice. They require special care and feeding. They are considered hardy only in the sense that they [...] |
