Looks can be deceiving

This quarry pool at Harpur Hill, near Buxton, Derbeyshire – known locally as the Blue Lagoon – has a pH level of 11.3, is littered with rubbish and dead animals, and is extremely cold. 
Local officials had to treat the water with a black dye to deter people from wanting to swim in it. Looks can be deceiving.

Huge caterpillar

What’s the wingspan on this chubby caterpillar when it’s done doing the metamorphosis thing? 6/12 – UPDATE: A reader much smarter than me pointed out this is a grub, not a caterpillar. So this thing will stay nasty.

What Was In Lincoln’s Pockets the Night He Was Shot?

Abraham Lincoln

The items from the pockets of the coat are on display at the Library of Congress, about two miles from Ford’s Theatre.

The night Abraham Lincoln was shot, he was carrying: a pocket knife, a watch fob, an Irish linen handkerchief, a brown leather wallet, a crisp new Confederate five-dollar bill, two pairs of gold-rimmed spectacles (one held together with string), and eight newspaper clippings, some of which echoed remarks from one of his campaign speeches – that a country divided against itself cannot stand.

Here are some interesting books about the assassination of Lincoln.

Guitar shaped forest

man-plants-guitar-shaped-forest

Located in the fertile agricultural region of Argentina’s ‘Pampas’ is a guitar shaped forest made up of over 7,000 cypress and eucalyptus trees. At over a kilometer in length (2/3 of a mile) the guitar shaped forest is quite visible for passing planes and satellites above. While it’s sheer size and scale is impressive as a piece of land art, the story of how it came to be is even more touching.
