This is what I see if I spot diverticulitis

That bright thing casting the shadow is an outpouching of the decending colon caused by inflammation or . I read that acute episodes of diverticulitis is caused by thickened feces, so hard shit traveling down his colon started this latest episode probably. It occus in people with a low fiber diet and occurs most frequently in western urban civilization. So GG is save for now.

Divertucula, lol. Nevertheless, the illustration is anatomically correct.

This is what they look like in a colonoscopy. The small holes are diverticulum.

A more severe case. All those holes are diverticulum.

Sometimes, diverticula even have their own diverticula. There's an Xzibit joke in there, somewhere. Yo dawg, we herd you like diverticula....

Whenever I get to see an ultrasound study performed in real time, I just stand like an idiot next to the radiologist or US technician, nodding stupidly while trying to make heads or tails out of those faint images. They're always so happy to have someone listen to their vivid descriptions that I don't have the heart to tell them I can't understand shit of what is shown on that screen.

But the US has a ton of the wealthiest people in the entire world, they will skew that number. How many of the richest people in the world move to Norway, no one.  Again not saying the US has a better off middle class I am just pointing out that there are reasons why a country like Norway can have such great   quality of life.

But those wealthy people would skew the number in favour of the US. Wealthy people bring the average up. And the reason why Norway has such quality of life is well known. Oil! Of course it is also easier to run a smaller country, but that is not the only reason.

Do you know which city has the most millionaires?

The answer Moscow. No one would say the quality of life in russia is particular high.

I had no clue that Norway had oil. Again I only know what Epcot told me so I see Norway as a place where Vikings fight giant trolls.

About the numbers yes the wealthy would skew the numbers if it was just a simple average but I thought you said they break it down into how the money is spread out, I know that in the US its a horrible number something like the wealthiest 10% hold 70% of the countries wealth.

This discussion has now lead me too finding a list of the worlds billionares. The richest man in the world is Mexican? Woah, here he is. He is$18 billion ahead of Bill Gates and growing like crazy.

What ever happened to that prince that was always near the top of the list?

Look who is the second richest man in Japan and the richest person involved in the gaming industry.

Worth $4.6 billion. Still owns the most shares of Nintendo. After him as the richest man in the game industry is the dude in South Korea that makes online games like Maple Story.
