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.

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.
