Unusual Night in Nature. Two French hotel/camp, Attrape Reves in Bouches-du-Rhone (near Marseille) and Sky River near Loir-et-Cher, are the places where you can sleep under the stars.

Unusual Night in Nature

Concept of sleeping in balloons are designed by French designer Pierre Stefan, wanting to create an environmentally friendly space: when a plastic bubble pack, the area remains almost intact. Balloons are small and cozy, their diameter is about four meters. Some are completely transparent, while others provide a little more privacy. Of course, if you want comfort that provides, for example, “Ric”, these unusual balloons are probably not for you. But if you want to fully protected sleep surrounded by nature and watch the stars from bed – go to this travel destination. Sleeping under the stars gets a new meaning in the unusual “camps” in France – visitors are accommodated in nature under the open sky.

Reeling Silk

I've raised silkworms for three years now, and this is how you go about getting the cocoons turned into thread. *NOTE* - This has been a definite learning experience for me. This page shows my original method; I've adopted some quicker and more efficient ways of doing things, which you can see here. This is most of the basic setup. I begin by simmering the cocoons in the hot water. In the process of finding the right end, you waste a lot of silk.

When you are about to the One True Thread, it will look much like this. Chris is intrigued with the Pupa Soup, and decides to give it a try. The Pupa Soup is not delicious. Here, if you look *really* close, you can see the individual threads coming off all the cocoons. You can check to see which cocoons are connected to the reel, by pulling the bundle of threads to one side... These are the cocoons, just about to start reeling. Closeup of the button.

Cecropia Silkmoth

It is a member of the family of giant silkmoths - the Saturniidae. Since Cecropia moths are noted for being difficult to rear successfully indoors in the larger stages, I am going to sleeve them on a pear tree outdoors after they change to their second or third instar. These eggs are from a female captured just a little ways south of here. The eggs remind me of Cracker Jacks - the "glue" that the moth uses to stick them to the surface she lays them on makes them look like they're glazed. - StumbleUpon. Castawaycostume photo.

Besides having a bunch of friends who are unwilling to make the switch there is absolutely no reason to go with consoles over PC next gen. If consoles want to compete performance wise they will cost almost as much as a new PC and still won't be able to match the performance. It's likely that the next generation of consoles will have 2010ish hardware and still skimp to cut cost. Look at consoles being $600-$700 in 2014. Consoles will never be able to compete as far as functionality goes. This doesn't mean there isn't a place for consoles next gen it just depends on what they try and do with consoles. 8.jpg (JPEG Image, 600 × 501 pixels) Feed the Head - StumbleUpon.

Several months ago, my brother and I were discussing our mutual love of the woods and the outdoors. Although he has hunted and fished most of his adult life, he admitted that he really didn’t pay too much attention to the wild greens around him. Somehow, our conversation turned to the subject of Hemlock and my brother was quite surprised to learn that Hemlock trees were not poisonous, but several relatives of Wild Carrot are some of the most deadly plants in North America.

Their similarity in appearance to Wild Carrot has resulted in many deaths, including children using their hollow stems for straws or for making whistles. Wild Carrot, Poison Hemlock and Poison Hemlock’s deadly cousin, Water Hemlock all belong to the Apiaceae plant family. Personally, I never wildcraft any plants from the Apiaceae family. Let’s look at some of the characteristics for Wild Carrot, Poison Hemlock and Water Hemlock. o3d61.jpg (JPEG Image, 460 × 1938 pixels) - Scaled (36. 50 Reasons Why Japan Is Awesome (or, 50 Things To Do & See In Japan) This is a MONSTER post with lots of photos, so let’s get straight into it.
