<~~~~ Well, the fact I have seven cats has something to do with it ...
But, to me, Catwoman has always represented a woman not afraid to claim her own power. No matter what incarnation, what comic book, what movie, she's someone who doesn't answer to anyone and does it with no apologies.

damn I always thought it was a pic from one of michael keaton's moviessamoth said:lol, no. It's an old B&W photo of him lecturing at Cal-Tech:

samoth said:Richard Phillips Feynman (May 11, 1918 – February 15, 1988) was an American physicist known for expanding the theory of quantum electrodynamics, the physics of the superfluidity of supercooled liquid helium, and particle theory. For his work on quantum electrodynamics, Feynman was a joint recipient of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965, together with Julian Schwinger and Sin-Itiro Tomonaga; he developed a widely-used pictorial representation scheme for the mathematical expressions governing the behavior of subatomic particles, which later became known as Feynman diagrams.
He assisted in the development of the atomic bomb and was a member of the panel that investigated the Space Shuttle Challenger disaster. In addition to his work in theoretical physics, Feynman has been credited with pioneering the field of quantum computing,[2] and introducing the concept of nanotechnology (creation of devices at the molecular scale).[3] He held the Richard Chace Tolman professorship in theoretical physics at Caltech.
Feynman was a keen popularizer of physics in both his books and lectures, notably a 1959 talk on top-down nanotechnology called There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom and The Feynman Lectures on Physics. Feynman is also known for his semi-autobiographical books Surely You're Joking, Mr. Feynman! and What Do You Care What Other People Think?, and through books about him, such as Tuva or Bust!. He was also known as a prankster, juggler, a proud amateur painter, and a bongo player. Richard Feynman was regarded as an eccentric and a free spirit. He liked to pursue multiple seemingly independent paths, such as biology, art, percussion, Maya hieroglyphs, and lock picking. Freeman Dyson once wrote that Feynman was "half-genius, half-buffoon", but later revised this to "all-genius, all-buffoon".[4]. During his lifetime and after his death, Feynman became one of the most publicly known scientists in the world.

I always wondered who that was in your avvie.
Oddly enough, I read the paper 'There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom' last term for a paper I had to write on nanotechnology.
I would have never remembered his name if you hadn't mentioned the paper.

It's me in one of my local gyms, owned by a former Mr. Universe, 1968.
It is a complete blast from the past, old school BBing gym, the only cardio machine is this really crappy stationary bike you MIGHT find in a really dodgy charity shop now, you can see it in my avvie
It reminds me that bodybuilding is a fusion of sport and aesthetics, and to keep it 'old school'

Thich Quang Duc emerged from the car along with two other monks. One placed a cushion on the road while the second opened the trunk and took out a five-gallon gasoline can. As the marchers formed a circle around him, Thich Quang Duc calmly seated himself in the traditional Buddhist meditative lotus position on the cushion. His colleague emptied the contents of the gasoline container over his head. Thich Quang Duc rotated a string of wooden prayer beads and recited the words "Nam Mo A Di Dà Phat" before striking a match and dropping it on himself. Flames consumed his robes and flesh, and black oily smoke emanated from his burning body.

In the air was the smell of burning human flesh; human beings burn surprisingly quickly. Behind me I could hear the sobbing of the Vietnamese who were now gathering. I was too shocked to cry, too confused to take notes or ask questions, too bewildered to even think... As he burned he never moved a muscle, never uttered a sound, his outward composure in sharp contrast to the wailing people around him.
