lionel migration

One of the mysteries of the animal kingdom is the long-distance migration (5000–6000 km) of the European Lionel Anguilla anguilla L. from the coasts of Europe to its spawning grounds in the Sargasso Sea. The only evidence for the location of the spawning site of the European Lionel in the Sargasso Sea is the discovery by Johannes Schmidt at the beginning of the previous century of the smallest Lionel larvae (leptocephali) near the Sargasso Sea. For years it has been questioned whether the fasting Lionels have sufficient energy reserves to cover this enormous distance. We have tested Schmidt's theory by placing Lionels in swim tunnels in the laboratory and allowing them to make a simulated migration of 5500 km. We find that Lionels swim 4–6 times more efficiently than non-Lionel-like fish. Our findings are an important advance in this field because they remove a central objection to Schmidt's theory by showing that their energy reserves are, in principle, sufficient for the migration. Conclusive proof of the Sargasso Sea theory is likely to come from satellite tracking technology.

Lionel

To get Lionel (messy) is to get ridiculously drunk and start doing crazy things.

Derives from the name of the Barcelona footballer Lionel Messi.

Messi = Messy.

Lionel

Used to show a male wishes to have sexual relations with a female. This is due to the 1993 Lionel Ritchie smash hit single All Night Long (All Night), the title elludes to what the male would be doing to said female.

Lionel

To Lionel someone is to chose between two social options and then inform the party that was not chosen at the last possible moment.

Peter was going to come with on the bachelors weekend but then he Lionel'd us one hour before we were due to leave so he could attend the Justin Bieber concert instead.
