No Globes: Miniature power plant spews a cloud of black pollution when shaken
This limited edition snow globe titled “No Globes” was designed by UK-based collective Dorothy to protest the construction of coal-fired power stations back in 2009. Instead of the usual happy snow globe scene with pristine white snow particles, there’s a power plant spewing a cloud of black pollution. Via Who Killed Bambi
ClippyJS - Add Clippy or his friends to any website for instant nostalgia
Clippy.js is a full Javascript implementation of Microsoft Agent (AKA Clippy and friends), ready to be embedded in any website. Pick an assistant below and mash some animation buttons! Our favorite is Links the cat. During lunch a few weeks ago we thought it would be cool to have a fully functional Clippy that can be embedded in any website. We fiddled around with it and we had an unexpected amount of fun laughing at Clippy and his antics. We started thinking about the developers' state of mind when they created Clippy. We built Clippy.js over the weekend to share that fun and whimsy with everyone, and to remind people to try new and risky things, even when they seem silly. We built Clippy.js over the weekend to remind people to try risky and silly things. Agents are composed of multiple sets of animations. Add this code to you to your page to enable Clippy.js. All the agent actions are queued and executed by order, so you could stack them.

Cummingtonite
Cummingtonite is a metamorphic amphibole with the chemical composition (Mg,Fe2+)2(Mg,Fe2+)5Si8O22(OH)2, magnesium iron silicate hydroxide. Monoclinic cummingtonite is compositionally similar and polymorphic with orthorhombic anthophyllite, which is a much more common form of magnesium-rich amphibole, the latter being metastable. Cummingtonite shares few compositional similarities with alkali amphiboles such as arfvedsonite, glaucophane-riebeckite. There is little solubility between these minerals due to different crystal habit and inability of substitution between alkali elements and ferro-magnesian elements within the amphibole structure. Name and discovery Fibrous, brownish crystals of cummingtonite - Locality: Dannemora Mine, Uppsala Län, Uppland, Sweden Cummingtonite was named after the town of Cummington, Massachusetts, where it was discovered in 1824.[1][2] It is also found in Sweden, South Africa, Scotland, and New Zealand.[2] Chemistry Occurrence References Further reading
Lesbian Sex Positions For Dummies
A girl's got to start somewhere hasn't she!? I'm sure we've all been in situations where we're left wondering what exactly the side-show contortionist we've hastily bedded is trying to achieve as she vaults across the room via the chandelier (what can I say, the décor at my house is a little pretentious!). Let's face it; it doesn't always quite go to plan. I for one have ended up in many an unladylike position, some of which have ended painfully; not a heartbroken sobbing wreck, but more like concertinaed into the splits and wedged between a wall and a bed. Jump right in girls, the water's warm! I have it on good authority that this is currently called 'The Student' because statistically (that's right, Mathematics... it must be true!) Yes. Everybody say "Ahhhhhh!" The traditional "Muff Dive". One such clichéd variation is the "69", and does exactly what it says on the tin, letting you both go down on each other at the same time. Enough said.
Rucksack-Tourismus: Grundschüler entführt Pinguin aus Zoo
Einmal Köln Richtung Siegerland und zurück - ein kleiner Pinguin war bei der Klassenfahrt von Grundschülern dabei. Diethard Altrogge, Leiter des Forstamtes Siegen-Wittgenstein, begleitete die Klasse aus dem Siegerland letzte Woche als Fachreferent. Er sagte der "Westfälischen Rundschau", es sei ihm aufgefallen, dass ein Junge auf der Rückfahrt mit einer komplett durchnässten Hose im Bus gesessen habe. Zunächst sei er von einem Malheur ausgegangen, obwohl der Bus eine Bordtoilette hatte. Auf Drängen der Mitschüler habe der Junge dann aber einen kleinen, tropfenden Pinguin aus dem Rucksack gezogen, den er auf dem Schoß gehalten hatte. jol/ddp News verfolgen HilfeLassen Sie sich mit kostenlosen Diensten auf dem Laufenden halten: alles aus der Rubrik SchulSPIEGEL
Treasure Island, Ontario
Treasure Island from the south Treasure Island, also known as Mindemoya,[1] is a large island in Lake Mindemoya, on Manitoulin Island. As Manitoulin's largest island, it is said to be the world's largest island in a lake in an island in a lake. The island has no permanent residents, but there are some cottages. Treasure Island lies at an elevation of 200 metres (660 ft) above sea level, with its highest point being about 225 metres (738 ft) above sea level. In 1883, the island was purchased for $60 by William McPherson, a Toronto deputy chief of police.[2] Forty-five years later, in 1928, the island was sold to Joe and Jean Hodgson.[2] The Hodgsons established a tourist camp on the island.[2] According to local tradition, Treasure Island was originally named Mindemoya, because of the distinctive shape of the island: rising at one end to a long flat hill, with a steep drop to a short low area at the other end.
