Cockroach Found in Woman’s Colon During Colonoscopy

Maybe this is what is wrong with most Liberals. They seem to always have a bug up their asses.

“A 52-year-old woman with a history of depression was referred by her primary physician for colorectal cancer screening. She had no family history of colorectal cancer and a review of systems was positive for abdominal bloating. Bowel preparation was done using 4 L of polyethylene glycol the evening prior to screening colonoscopy. The procedure was uncomplicated with no gross mucosal pathology, however, an insect was found in the transverse colon (Fig. 1, to the left), was found in the transverse colon on a routine screening colonoscopy.). The insect was aspirated and sent to the lab for further identification. The insect had three body segments (head, thorax, and abdomen) with ventrodorsal flattening of the body and a segmented abdomen, three pairs of legs extending from the thorax (with spikes and claw-like terminal appendages), elongated hind legs, and a pair of elongated antennae extending from the head to beyond the hind legs.These morphologic findings were most consistent with the nymph form of Blattella germanica (German cockroach) of the Blattellidae family, a common household pest. The patient had a cockroach infestation at home and hence it was hypothesized that she may have inadvertently ingested a cockroach with food.”

Amphibious HydroCar For Sale On eBay

For the Superhero in all of us.

Have you always wanted a vehicle that can drive on both land and water? How about an amphibious car that needs a little testing and troubleshooting? If you’re equal parts wealthy and crazy, the Dobbertin HydroCar could be for you.

Rick Dobbertin is well known for his imaginative projects. After constructing a pair of award winning hot rods in the 80s, he built the Dobbertin Surface Explorer, a 32 foot long amphibious vehicle constructed out of an old milk tanker.

Dobbertin took the Surface Explorer around the world logging 30,000 land miles and over 3,000 miles in the open ocean. Perhaps most importantly, the Surface Explorer was voted one of Jalopnik’s 10 best Post Apocalyptic Survival Vehicles a couple years ago. Dobbertin nearly made it around the entire world with the Surface Explorer before financial problems brought him back to upstate New York.

In a bold and somewhat questionable move, Dobbertin sold the Surface Explorer and his Award winning Hot Rods to finance the Dobbertin HydroCar you see here. As you can see from the pictures, almost every part of the HydroCar is custom, one off, or handmade. The vehicle actually changes shape, lowering and extending pontoons when you switch it from land mode to water mode. The tunnel hulled HydroCar is propelled by a 572 Cubic inch Big Block Chevy that produces 762 horsepower.

While the HydroCar is clearly well built, after nine years and 18,800 hours, the custom vehicle is still not quite done. Several videos included in the auction show that while the HydroCar is improving as a result of testing, Dobbertin has been unable to get the boat to plane. Without being on plane the boat can’t come anywhere close to the estimate of the HydroCar’s 60 MPH water capability.

Accordingly the HydroCar, which is currently listed on Ebay for $777,000 is “being offered as a more of collector car than something to be used on either land or water on a regular basis”. Dobbertin points out his lack of funds and weather restrictions on testing as the main contributing factors forcing the sale of the HydroCar. Unfortunately, it’s possible the same financial crisis that is keeping Dobbertin from finishing the HydroCar might make it even harder for wealthy Amphibian automobile enthusiasts to justify purchasing it.
