Our footage is stronger than Otto Preminger's! Creepier and darker than David Lynch's! More exploitive than Herschell Gordon Lewis. And more violent than Sam Fuller.

Four smiling young adults pose in front of a blue "ocean PAVILION" backdrop. On the left, a man in a black suit and a woman in a dark blazer shake hands with the two people on the right: a person wearing glasses and a dark green shirt, and a man wearing a light blue dress shirt. A medium shot shows a smiling young man with short brown hair and a beard standing at a wooden table in a spacious lab or workshop, looking at the camera. He is wearing a dark grey, long-sleeved athletic shirt. In front of him on the table are several items: - A tall, narrow, rectangular container made of clear acrylic, partially filled with a translucent, light-orange liquid. - A small, white cardboard box with a colorful circular logo that reads "LED STRIP LIGHTS," with a small black camera lens sitting on top of it. - An open black laptop displaying a dark screen with software interface elements. In the background, the room is brightly lit with high ceilings. Two other people are visible but slightly out of focus: a person with dark hair and glasses sitting behind the laptop, and another person on the right facing away from the camera. A bright yellow structure is visible in the middle background. An eye-level medium-shot captures two people on a gray inflatable boat in glacial water. On the left, a person sits facing slightly right, looking ahead. They wear a gray beanie with the word "MITWHOI" in blue letters, an orange and black jacket, and red and black gloves. They hold a small yellow device up to their left eye. A yellow notebook lies open next to their lap. In the center, a person in a green and black jumpsuit and a bright teal beanie with black sunglasses resting on top sits facing right, holding a black camera to their face as if taking a photo. They are in a calm, light teal body of water with small ice chunks floating. The water reflects the cloudy, white sky and the mountains in the background. High, jagged mountains line both sides of the water, with patches of snow on them. On the far right is a glacier that extends into the water. An eye-level shot captures two smiling female researchers on a ship’s deck collecting water samples from a CTD rosette. On the left, a researcher wearing a blue hard hat with a "NES-LTER" sticker, a black fleece, grey trousers, and brown tall boots squats down. She holds a small, clear sample bottle with a red cap under a tube releasing water from one of several large grey Niskin bottles on the CTD frame. Squatting next to her on the right, the other researcher, with blonde hair in a bun, wearing a black long-sleeved shirt, blue jeans, and red shoes, looks on with a smile. She wears purple protective gloves. The background shows the ship's white superstructure, a blue metal barrier on the right, and the wet, white deck.

5 OCTOBER 1776, HARLEM, NEW YORK: George Washington writes to John Hancock saying that the Continental Congress must decide what order of seniority is to be used when promoting officers: whether promotions come from only within a regiment, or from every regiment of that state.

Happy #MicroscopyMonday!

Check out this free-swimming cercaria larva of a local parasitic flatworm Lepocreadium setiferoides, which infects mud snails.

artistic black-and-white photo titled "Victorian Nude," taken in 1967 by Ruth Bernhard: a well-upholstered but not particularly buxom woman is standing naked in front of a plain black studio background with her head turned and her hands clasped in front of her lap

Ken Russell's opium laced vision of the night Frankenstein was conceived may be divisive but it's a work of deliriously nightmarish genius. 1986.

Swamp Women (1956) 4 female convicts escape a Louisiana prison and boat-jack a manly-man & his busty bayou babe on a hunt for hidden diamonds. They're at eachother's throats and could prove more dangerous to themselves than the swamp alligators. Beverly Garland, Mike "Mannix" Connors d. Roger Corman
