'Over the years, the film has acquired a kind of notoriety, too, because Beals did so little of Alex’s dancing. Most was performed by a French dancer, Marine Jahan. And in the climactic audition scene, there were more doubles: the gymnast Sharon Shapiro for the dive into the roll; and for the backspin, the 16-year-old B-boy Richard Colon, better known as Crazy Legs.'

'Moedas declarou que não deveria poder entrar em Portugal quem não tivesse previamente um contrato de trabalho, ou seja, vamos lá restringir isto. Claro que, se forem ricos, já a conversa é outra.

Every asshole pundit and journalist who mansplained to those of us who were worried about exactly this happening should never be taken seriously again. They are not serious people, they are not smart people, and they don't know what the fuck is going on in the world around them.

Protecting #tissues from #autoimmunity is a fascinating function of the immune system: in this new work on #innateimmunity in the salivary gland it is #lymphoid #NKcells that regulate #TCells and prevented autoimmunity via TRAIL-dependent elimination of CD4+ T cells. These NK cells show adaptive-like features with long-term residency in non-lymphoid tissues. #immunology
