Wow! That's all I could say for several hours after attending the Body Worlds 3- The Story of the Heart exhibit at The Leonardo at Library Square in downtown Salt Lake City. What an amazing exhibit. The creator, Gunther von Hagens of Germany, uses the most amazing technique called plastination which allows them to keep the original form of the body, preserving everything that is normally dissected out. Almost freezing the body and all of it's intricacies for us to see in awe. What is amazing about this approach is not only does it allow you to see the body in it's true form completely, but it does so in a beautiful not grotesque way. I highly recommend this exhibit to anybody except small children. I saw some small children that were pretty freaked out and confused by it all. I would say 13 and up. And forewarning, it does have the complete reproductive system on display.
If this or any other Body Worlds exhibit comes to your city, take it from me, it is well worth your time and money. It's a real eye-opener.

Remember Me.
No matter who you are voting for, no matter where you stand on the war, let's not forget our soldiers.

Good point!
After being interviewed by the school administration, the teaching
prospect said, 'Let me see if I've got this right:
'You want me to go into that room with all those kids, correct their
disruptive behavior, observe them for signs of abuse, monitor their
dress habits, censor their T-shirt messages, and instill in them a
love for learning.
'You want me to check their backpacks for weapons, wage war on drugs
and sexually transmitted diseases, and raise their sense of self
esteem and personal pride.
'You want me to teach them patriotism and good citizenship,
sportsmanship and fair play. You want me to check their heads for lice,
recognize signs of antisocial behavior, and make sure they all pass
the state exams.
'You want me to provide them with an equal education regardless of
their handicaps, and communicate regularly with their parents.
'You want me to do all this with a piece of chalk, a blackboard, a
bulletin board, a few books, a big smile, and a starting salary that
will qualify me for food stamps. You want me to do all this and then
you tell me:
I CAN'T PRAY?
