Shark Circles Man in Kayak

The Amazing Arctic Tern

IT WAS long believed that arctic terns flew about 22,000 miles (35,200 km) on their journey from the Arctic region to Antarctica and back. Recent studies, however, revealed that the birds actually fly much farther.

Arctic tern migration path over the Atlantic Ocean

Tern migration follows an indirect path, as shown in the illustration

Tiny instruments called geolocators were attached to a number of birds. About the weight of a paper clip, these amazing devices revealed that some terns flew an average of 56,000 miles (90,000 km) on the round-trip—the longest animal migration known. One bird flew nearly 60,000 miles (96,000 km)! Why the revised estimates?

No matter where they began their migration, the arctic terns flew an indirect route. As shown in the illustration, a common Atlantic Ocean route took an S shape. The reason? The birds simply take advantage of prevailing wind systems.

During their lifetime of about 30 years, terns may travel well over 1.5 million miles (2.4 million km). That isequal to three or four round-trips to the moon!“This is a mind-boggling achievement for a bird of just over 100 grams [3.5 ounces],” said a researcher. What is more, because arctic terns experience the summers at both poles,they see “more daylight each year than any other creature,”states the book Life on Earth: A Natural History.

Another 5 dayum I'm bored facts brought to you by yours truly
1-The voice of Bugs Bunny, Mel Blanc, had been in a serious car accident and ended up in a coma. After many unsuccessful trials of getting him to talk, the doctor asked, ""Bugs, can you hear me?" Then Mel Blanc responded in the voice of Bugs Bunny, "What's up, Doc?" The doctors used this to lead him out of the coma.
2-The Philippine Island of Luzon has a lake that has an island with a lake, that has another island with a lake.
3-When Jamie Foxx was in 2nd grade his teacher would use him as a reward for when the class was good. If they were all well behaved he would tell jokes and entertain the class.
4-If you keep a goldfish in a dark room, it will eventually turn pale.
5-An Italian woman once found a live grenade in her grocery store potatoes.

The Brilliant Blue of the Pollia Berry

THE small berry of the Pollia condensata plant, found across Africa, exhibits the most intense blue color ever seen in a plant. Yet it has no blue pigment. What is the secret behind its striking color?

Consider: The cell walls in the skin of the berry contain tiny threads arranged like rows of matches. These threads form layers, each layer set off at a slight angle to the layer below, so that the rising layers form a helical, or spiral, pattern. The threads themselves are not colored blue. The color comes from the way the threads are stacked. Thus, structure, not pigment, is the key to the berry’s intense metallic hue and iridescence. Most cells appear blue. But from different angles, some emit a green, pink, or yellow hue because of subtle changes in the layers. Moreover, when examined closely, the colors are not smooth and even but appear pixelated, like the colors on a computer screen.

Since Pollia berries have no pigment, they keep their color even after they drop from the plant. In fact, some berries collected over a century ago look as brilliant as fresh ones! Even though the berry has no edible pulp, just seeds, it sends an irresistible signal to nearby birds, according to researchers.

Scientists believe that the Pollia berry’s pigment-free color could inspire products ranging from fade-resistant dyes to counterfeit-resistant paper.

The Sea Otter’s Fur

MANY aquatic mammals that live in cold waters have a thick layer of blubber under the skin to help them stay warm. The sea otter relies on another insulation method—a thick fur coat.

Consider: The fur of the sea otter is denser than that of any other mammal, with some one million hairs per square inch (155,000 per sq cm). When the otter swims, its coat traps a layer of air close to its body. That air acts as an insulator, preventing the cold water from coming into direct contact with the animal’s skin and sapping its body heat.

Scientists believe that there is a lesson to be learned from the sea otter’s fur. They have experimented with a number of artificial fur coats, varying such factors as hair length and hair spacing. The researchers have concluded that “the denser and the longer the hairs are, the dryer or the more water-repellent the hairy surface is.” Put another way, sea otters can boast a truly efficient fur coat.

Researchers hope that their studies will lead to technological advances in the design and production of novel water-repellent textiles. This may lead some to wonder whether people who have to dive in cold waters may not be better off wearing a hairy wet suit—one similar to that of the sea otter!

Only 3 facts because I'm tired

1-A shrimp's heart is in it's head.
2-It is physically impossible for pigs to look up into the sky
3-The Grammy Awards were introduced to counter the threat of rock music. In the late 1950s, a group of record executives were alarmed by the explosive success of rock ‘n roll, considering it a threat to "quality" music. <<Boy were they wrong!
