Eagle catches fish next to boat while on fishing trip in Manitoba…
Eagle to humans: ‘This is how you do it!’
4.5 billion-year-old meteorite hit New Jersey home…
Yep, just from the beginning of our solar system…
I studied this (carbonate formation on different meteorites) during my PhD thesis and it is just fascinating…
The water quality in Warsaw, the capital city of Poland, is monitored by 8 clams… If the water gets too toxic, they close, and this triggers analyses that can immediately shut off the city’s water supply, if at least 4 are close…
When the molluscs encounter heavy metals, pesticides or other pollutants, they close their shells, explains Piotr Domek of Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan, who has worked on the project for three decades. To create a natural early-warning system, Mr Domek and his colleagues collect the clams from rivers or reservoirs, and attach a coil and a magnet to their shells. Computers register whether their shells are open or closed by detecting changes in the magnetic field.
There are drawbacks. Clams, as the idiom goes, cannot talk. So they never reveal which toxin is causing them to clam up. Also, it seems that they may be less good at detecting dangerous pharmaceuticals. Still, Piotr Klimaszyk, who leads the team that developed the system, thinks it ought to be used everywhere. It is cheap: all you need is clams and computers. “It allows you to check the water quality hour by hour, minute by minute, so why not?”
Yep, the clams are used in a supplementary way, they are basically just one more test for the water to pass in addition to all the other tests that are being done…
And when the clams retire, they are delicious… Maybe…
Why are Russian politicians posting this?
What a shitty propaganda…
Maybe that: Russian politicians have said that the sale of Alaska to the US was unfair and that the territory should be returned to, one way or the other. Maybe a special military operation once Ukraine is subdued.
Well, please try. Russia can’t even defeat Ukraine. It would take Alaskan National Guard about an hour to beat them… LOL!
CDC shooter believed COVID vaccine made him suicidal…
I’d be suicidal too if I were that stupid…
South Korea’s military has shrunk by 20% in six years as male population drops…
South Korea’s military has steadily declined since the early 2000s when it had about 690,000 soldiers. The pace accelerated during the late 2010s and there were about 563,000 active-duty soldiers and officers in 2019.
…
In the period between 2019 and 2025, the population of 20-year-old males declined by 30% to 230,000, according to government data, the age when most men who pass a physical exam enlist for military service, which is now 18 months long.
Insane to think about how fast this is happening…
Anyway, who wants to go to the army nowadays?
The Australian peacock spider’s mating dance…

Shallow 6.1 magnitude earthquake strikes western Turkiye…
A powerful earthquake of 6.1 magnitude struck off western Turkiye on Sunday evening (7:53 p.m; 10 kilometers below the surface), sending tremors across multiple provinces near Istanbul, the country’s largest city.
People felt the tremors throughout several provinces surrounding the epicenter, with authorities reporting no deaths or significant damage.
At least 1 dead and several injured…

Severe outbreak of mosquito borne chikungunya virus infects 8,000 in China, prompts mass quarantines…
In a massive effort to curb its further spread, masked Chinese soldiers have been dousing public spaces with insecticide, and authorities have begun releasing “elephant mosquitoes” whose larvae devour the smaller, virus-carrying mosquitoes.
Thousands of mosquito-eating fish also have been released into Foshan’s public ponds.
Officials have urged those showing any symptoms to be tested for the virus, and residents have been ordered to remove stagnant water, where the mosquitoes breed, from their homes — and threatened with fines up to $1,400 if they refuse to comply, according to the BBC.
At least five homes have had their electricity cut for not cooperating.
Those insecticides are not harmless to humans and other animals and insects…
Set your alarm for dawn…
Venus and Jupiter are converging in the eastern dawn sky for a spectacular conjunction. At closest approach on Aug. 11-13, the two planets will shine like a bright double star–easy to see even from brightly-lit cities. Sky maps: Aug. 11, 12, 13.
Bonus: The Perseid meteor shower peaks at the same time, so you might catch a bright fireball, too. And there is a very good news: Perseid meteor rates are expected to increase 10 fold in the next 24 hours. The odds of catching one next to the “double star planets” will increase by the same amount. Like in the picture below (reddish strike near the two planets):
When I was in Jura to get my kids, I spent a night in a tent. I couldn’t sleep and went for a little walk in the fields. Even if it was almost fullmoon, I saw 3 amazingly bright firebally striking the beautiful night sky… It was awesome! Try your luck over the next few days…
Always kee your eyes to the sky!
