It would be decades before anyone knew enough about blood itself to make blood donation more helpful than harmful. Doctors would sometimes give people animal blood-usually sheep’s blood, cattle blood, or dog’s blood. While some patients probably benefited from fewer blood clots being jammed into their veins, and some may have been saved by their transfusions, others blood recipients had probably only been kept alive because clots limited the amount of blood they received. Once the blood was clotted to their satisfaction, the doctors would strain the blood through fine fabric, and transfuse the liquid into the patient.ĭid the process help anyone? That’s tough to say. Doctors would empty the donor blood into a vessel, then break out the beater, the whisk, or sometimes even clean bundles of broom-straw, and stir the blood until it formed large clumps. You Needed An Egg-Beater for Blood Transfusions in the 1870s ( ) It does this effectively enough that it can be separated out if it is tangled vigorously enough. Or, you might want to listen to 'Gangsta Lean.' I find it helps at times like these. At least I know I'm still alive (Truthfully, I was. Saleisha's wall of spaz is literally nauseating. WORST FINAL 3 EVER Whatever, at least someone's excited. I dont know if thats joyous or depressing. Please observe a moment of silence or pour out a little liquor for Nick. I think I speak for, oh, the entire viewing public when I say. Blood contains a long protein called fibrin, which clumps together during the clotting process. Believe it or not, this batch of girls on the second cycle of Canadas Next Top Model marks a dramatic improvement over the batch of girls on the first. Soon doctors discovered a way to get the lumps out. So Don't worry about cross-contamination-your writing is always funny and entertaining. I even read your recaps of shows I don't watch just because you wrote them. Because I lurve fourfour, I've also followed you over to VH1. Clots jammed the tubes that connected the donor to the receiver. I found your blog a while ago from Jezebel or Gawker and have been a regular reader ever since. The transfusion procedure was finicky because blood, when exposed to air, clots up. Times is almost as bad as the Post, having referred to Marques Houston, John fucking Legend and Chris Brown as rappers. Cholera and childbirth seemed to sap both, so doctors infused blood into their patients to restore them in a kind of reverse-bloodletting. Doctors weren’t thinking about the function of blood while they were doing transfusions they were thinking of blood as the stuff that brings a person vigor and life. There were two major reasons for this: cholera and childbirth. I'm a little over 30 minutes into my Madonna video-watching marathon (thanks to the new, just-shy-of-complete-so-as-to-be-totally-infuriating 2-DVD set, Celebration).I started with Disc 2, as I'm less familiar with her later work, and was eager to rediscover gems I'd unfairly dismissed, and learn where I'd been wrong. This didn’t mean that doctors stopped trying, and in the mid-1800s, the procedure underwent a revival. Journalist Rich Juzwiak uses the platform of his blog fourfour to enact just such an interplay, modeling likewise for the scholar paradoxical ways to stay a course by wandering and to collect (ideas, objects, and their collision) through dispersal.The earliest transfusions were done in the 1600s, but the practice failed to catch on. It's the same rules as the first video and last year's '08-'09 roundup (in a nutshell: be vile on reality TV), except people are saying it more than ever (this only spans the year's time since the last video and it's the longest of the three supercuts) and on non-competition shows like Sober House, Addicted and (my favorite) Ice Road Truckers. As Denis Diderot provides one sanguine exemplar of the dialectical interplay of digressiveness and encyclopedism, he also anticipates a closely allied version of that interplay, nonetheless specific to work in contemporary digital media. So Dont worry about cross-contamination-your writing is always funny and entertaining. I even read your recaps of shows I dont watch just because you wrote them. Because I lurve fourfour, Ive also followed you over to VH1. More specifically, this form of digressiveness can stroll to, with, and through an encyclopedic impulse without succumbing to the totalizing aggrandizements or pretensions to mastery that corrupt more rigid brands of encyclopedism. I found your blog a while ago from Jezebel or Gawker and have been a regular reader ever since. Distinguished from distraction-an ostensibly pervasive state in and of contemporaneity over which far too much hand-wringing distracts thinkers (ironically) from more interesting questions about attention, concentration, and perception-digressiveness has value when explored and expressed as a cultivated art of strolling. This chapter construes the digression, an act of stepping aside or aslant, as the basic building block in a more capaciously imagined digressiveness, enacted as style, praxis, and ethos.
