i enjoyed sex and death 101 much more then i thought i would, not only because of simon baker but because i found the film itself was very enjoyable to watch and had a few good belly laughs to boot (one in particular had me laughing throughout most of the rest of the film). don' t watch sex and death 101 if you are looking for an average popcorn munching comedy film watch it if you are looking for something a bit different and perhaps odd yet still enjoyable. i was lucky enough to pick it up due to my undying love of simon baker and i' m happy i did .

in the end, unfortunately, sex and death 101 is the exactly the movie the title portends: late - night cinemax fare, the sort of movie to offer just enough exposed breasts to keep a 15 - year - old intrigued (yes, sophie monks’ are among them), but not enough to entertain him, resulting in next morning’s ultimate embarrassment: a mother who walks in on her son, asleep with his dick in his hand, an appropriate metaphor for daniel waters’ efforts here .

in other words, “sex and death” is a hard - boiled fantasy with a squishy center. the man in question is a single guy with the kind of name usually found next to a couple of x’s, roderick blank (simon baker), a looker whose bland existence derails when he receives a list naming all 101 women he will bed before he dies. the list puzzles him, as does the revelation of three guys in gray suits, alpha (robert wisdom), beta (tanc sade) and fred (patton oswalt), who hang out in a white room weighing the fate of mortals and have some connection with the roll call. as these three rehearse the all - seeing, all - knowing routine, roderick takes the opportunity to dump his castrating fiancée and liberate his inner player .
baker plays roderick blank, a fellow who on the eve of his wedding receives a mysterious e - mail that contains a list of all the women he has had - - or will have - - sex with in his entire life. in chronological order. the list does not stop with his fiancee, containing no less than 72 more sex partners. thinking with an organ that is clearly not his brain, he cancels the nuptials in favor these 72 new flavors .

the sudden infant death syndrome (sids) is the sudden death of an infant under one year of age that is typically associated with sleep and that remains unexplained after a complete autopsy and death scene investigation. a leading hypothesis about its pathogenesis is that many cases result from defects in brainstem - mediated protective responses to homeostatic stressors occurring during sleep in a critical developmental period. here we review the evidence for the brainstem hypothesis in sids with a focus upon abnormalities related to the neurotransmitter serotonin in the medulla oblongata, as these are the most robust pathologic findings to date. in this context, we synthesize the human autopsy data with genetic, whole - animal, and cellular data concerning the function and development of the medullary serotonergic system. these emerging data suggest an important underlying mechanism in sids that may help lead to identification of infants at risk and specific interventions to prevent death .

how the abnormalities in the medullary 5 - ht system translate into a mechanism for sudden and unexpected death in apparently healthy infants likely relates to the importance of this and related brainstem systems in multiple homeostatic processes that, if dysfunctional, could in sum promote death. these processes involve central chemoreception, modulation of inhibitory reflexes (e. g. , laryngeal chemoreflex [ lcr ]), sleep, arousal, temperature regulation, and autoresuscitation. sids research depends upon the use of animal models of homeostatic dysfunction because there are no available biomarkers for identification and study of living infants at risk. also, given that there are no known spontaneous models of sids in animals, we have focused upon the analysis of homeostatic function in young rats, mice, and piglets, in which abnormalities of the human medullary 5 - ht and related pathology are produced by various pharmacological and genetic methods, as well as in reduced brainstem preparations and cell culture systems .

four minutes later, cue the first of three montages. each features roderick sleepfucking his way through women of all ages (and one man), cursed by his infernal list of sure - fire sexings. his feminine foil, “death nell” (winona rider), stands for the stereotypical womyn who views all men as sex - crazed fiends that masturbate in the bushes while watching little girls. she hunts down these deviants—white rappers (“master bitchslap” is an awesome name though), pervy newsstand men, college frat boys—and puts them into a chemical coma while scrawling the walls with her poetry (i. e. “what men call breathing, i call suffocation. ” edgy !) she eventually spills her guts and relates a traumatic, rather disturbing past that seems infinitely more interesting than roderick’s list .

some hotels have refused to call a guest bedroom number 101 - rather like those tower blocks that don' t have a 13th floor - thanks to the ingenious orwellian concept of a room that contains whatever its occupant finds most impossible to endure. like big brother, this has spawned a modern tv show: in this case, celebrities are invited to name the people or objects they hate most in the world .
). naeye attributed this gliosis to chronic hypoxia due to sleep apnea and alveolar hypoventilation prior to the lethal event. subsequent research focused upon the hypothesis that sids is due to a neurotransmitter defect in brainstem cardiorespiratory–related pathways, and investigators worldwide, including our group, reported various neurotransmitter and morphological abnormalities in sids cases in brainstem nuclei related (and unrelated) to cardiorespiratory control using immunocytochemistry, tissue autoradiography, and cellular quantitation (

: 25 - 35. the girl of every man' s dreams to an almost satirical degree, dr. miranda storm is a sweet and adorable veterinarian, who can' t help causing men to actively injure their own pets in order to spend more time with her. miranda stops the fable of roderick blank and his 101 women in its tracks. there can be no other woman - dr. storm is kind, caring and can make a martini as well as she can tell a joke. in roderick, miranda has found a much - needed friend, one who inspires her to turn her quirk of thinking inanimate objects have feelings into a children' s book. alas, the randy roderick wants more than friendship and while dr. storm is quite articulate in protest, she can' t prevent their companionship from coming to a darkly comic and downright tragic end. lead ;
receptor neurons, and affect hypercapnic and hypoxic responses in a gender - dependent manner. neurons in the medullary raphé modulate the lcr, although we do not know whether 5 - ht neurons specifically participate in this important inhibitory reflex. we speculate that primary medullary 5 - ht defects cause subclinical homeostatic dysfunction days or weeks prior to the final lethal event and that they also cause repetitive hypoxia, leading in turn to secondary subtle brain injury and systemic hypoxic injury prior to death. it is also likely that particular sites of origin within the embryonic neural tube, with their unique profiles of gene expression, set in motion developmental programs that subsequently define functionally different subsets of raphé and extra - raphé 5 - ht neurons (

schematic representation of our concept of sudden infant death syndrome (sids) as a disorder of homeostasis due to abnormalities in the medullary serotonin (5 - ht) system. this disorder involves multiple neurotransmitters and neuromodulators that interact with the defective medullary 5 - ht system; multiple intrinsic and extrinsic (exogenous) stressors acting simultaneously; and the critical developmental period, i. e. , the first six months of postnatal life when 90% of sids cases occur. abbreviations: gaba, γ - aminobutyric acid; sp, substance p .

: 50s. more a god than a man, alpha is a smooth gentleman with all the answers. enigmatically representing an enigmatic organization, alpha explains to roderick the strange technology that produced the list that knows oh - somuch of his sex life. initially, an ominous, seemingly science fiction villain, alpha warms into the flesh - and - blood role of benevolent guide. as if watching an ant trying to carry a candy bar, alpha takes a bemused interest in the plight of the hapless mortal roderick, marveling at the twists and turns of his literal bedtime story, while giving out sage advice that roderick can never seem to quite follow ;

a prenatal origin of medullary 5 - ht abnormalities in sids is suggested by (a) the finding of deficits in the regulation of 5 - ht cell number and differentiation in the medullae of affected cases, (b) epidemiologic data indicating that prenatal adverse exposures (e. g. , alcohol and cigarette smoke / nicotine) are major risk factors for sids, and (c) autopsy data showing that prenatal exposure to cigarette smoke is associated with reduced 5 - ht receptor binding in the arcuate nucleus in the postnatal period, irrespective of the cause of death .
after the death in 1979 of his older brother nelson a. rockefeller, the former vice president and four - term governor of new york, david rockefeller stood almost alone as a member of the family with an outsize national profile. only jay rockefeller, a great - grandson of john d. rockefeller, had earned prominence, as a governor and united states senator from west virginia. no one from the family’s younger generations has attained or perhaps aspired to david rockefeller’s stature .
based upon the combined human and animal data presented above, we propose that sids results from the convergence of exogenous stressors (e. g. , face - down sleep position, overbundling), a critical developmental period, sleep, and dysfunctional and / or immature cardiorespiratory and / or arousal systems (i. e. , underlying vulnerability) that often involve abnormal 5 - ht mechanisms (
