Teen Wolf AU - Allison, Erica & Lydia take a road trip

“let’s just drive.” laughter. playlists. sing alongs. roads stretching on into infinity. late nights. early mornings. no cell reception. fair grounds. beaches. vintage shops. sleeping on each other’s shoulders. clothes sharing. star gazing. kisses on cheeks. posing for photo albums. sunglasses. connect the dot freckles. midnight secrets. morning promises. “we’ll conquer the world, we’ll never go back.”

Golden Tortoise Beetle.

In spring and summer, the beetles earn their name when they turn the colour of brilliant liquid gold. But capture one and the gold vanishes and the beetle becomes dirt brown. Here’s why: the colour is produced by an optical illusion; the outer cuticle is transparent and reflects light through a layer of liquid over the next layer of cuticle. The beetles change colour depending on the availability of the liquid layer. In the fall and winter, the beetles become less lustrous and are more orange and bronze with flashes of iridescent colour. If you try and collect the beetle for an insect collection, the beetle soon turns dark brown as is dries, loosing the golden colour.

At first I thought, “Cool jewelery” and then after reading hit my usual “Nature is awesome” reaction.

Frost shadows are when the rising sun melts the frost on the ground except for where the frost was covered by a shadow. And then the frost takes on the shape of the shadow. It’s like having a shadow in negative.

No matter how long the slinky is, the bottom of the slinky will stay still (hover) until the top reaches it. Even if the slinky is over 1000 feet long.

Woah.

Is this for real? Any physics fans have more info and can possibly explain this without too much jargon?

“Tired of darkness” from the country’s frequent power outages, a team of teenage girls has developed solar-powered appliances and now sells them across Yemen, writes Nafeesa Syeed for Al-Monitor:

“In Yemen, we have abundant sun,” says Reem Rashed, 16, who works in the company’s human resources section. “We need to exploit solar power because it’s a favorable, free energy and it does no damage to Yemeni society.”
