A human hand where everything but the blood vessels has been stripped away. From the BODIES exhibit<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>

I have a confession to make. \u00a0I was under the impression that the reason some of your blood vessels looked blue was because they were veins and deoxygenated blood was blue. \u00a0A post from io9<\/a> this week set me straight.<\/p>\n

This weekend I\u2019m hosting a viewing party for the livestream of 8<\/em><\/a>, a play sourced from the trial transcripts of California\u2019s Prop 8 trial<\/a>. \u00a0It\u2019s in the style of The Laramie Project, in that it primarily lets all the major characters speak in their own words. \u00a0I think this project got it\u2019s start when actors started reading the entirety of the transcripts daily during the trial after an injunction prevented the courthouse tapes from being released.<\/p>\n

Oh, and Jane Lynch plays Maggie Gallagher.<\/p>\n

Not everyone who can\u2019t get trial tapes has access to a stable of award-winning actors. \u00a0According to an article in The Wall Street Journal<\/em>, Akron, Ohio has found a charming low budget way to cover the high-stakes corruption trial of Jimmy Dimora.<\/p>\n
