S-Shaped Herkimer "Diamond" Chain This specimen is unique because it has gemmy Smoky Quartz surrounding a clear Quartz crystal in the center and an aesthetic S-shape. Herkimer "Diamonds" are a variety of Quartz found in Herkimer, New York. These are nicknamed "Diamonds" because of their incredible brilliance and their...

This is a natural piece of kimberlite with a rough Diamond still inside! Kimberlite is the volcanic rock that diamonds are found in and it’s rare to see in person with the Diamond still intact 📹: Grant Mobley

Rare Enhydro Quartz with over a hundred moving bubbles! 💦🫧 Each bubble is enclosed in a tiny negative crystal cavity with fluid inside, allowing the bubble to move back and forth. Quartz grows in a hydrothermal solution, and as it forms, water can become trapped inside portions of the crystal and remain preserved for millions of years. A truly fascinating piece! #enhydro #quartz #crystals #geology #bubbles #water #rocksforthespirit

There's a bacteriophage that turns bacteria into “liquid crystals.” Specifically, Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria make Pf phages, which are rod-shaped, negatively-charged, and measure about 2 micrometers in length (roughly the length of an E. coli cell). These phages leave the cells and enter their surroundings. There, they mix with polymers, also secreted by the cells, to form a crystalline matrix. Surprisingly, this is good for the cells. Although the phages kill some of them, it also makes their biofilms stickier and able to withstand certain antibiotics. These bacteria + phages are prevalent in cystic fibrosis patients; they've formed a sort of symbiotic relationship. The Pf phages are made from thousands of repeating copies of a coat protein, called CoaB, which wraps around a single-stranded, circular DNA genome. These genes are integrated directly on the bacterial chromosome. The bacteria “turn on” these phage genes when placed in a viscous environment with low oxygen levels. This is like a trigger to start forming a biofilm. And the cells make a lot of phages; about 100 billion per milliliter. These liquid crystals form because of a physics principle called “depletion attraction.” If you just mix a bunch of loose or flexible polymers together (such as long carbon chains) they will not form a liquid crystal. But if you mix stiff rods (the phages) with loose polymers at a high enough concentration, the polymers will force the phages close together to create a material that flows like a liquid despite being ordered like a crystal. See the video below. These liquid crystal biofilms are hard to get rid of. The negatively-charged phages block many antibiotics (like aminoglycosides, which are positively-charged) from entering cells. Liquid crystals also retain water, so these biofilms can survive on drier surfaces. I first heard about this from Malmesbury’s excellent newsletter, called “Telescopic Turnip.”

Today I learned that Ostriches eat stones. They eat stones because it is important for their digestive system. These omnivores eat a lot of plants, but they have no teeth. This can present a problem because plants contain complex molecules that are sometimes difficult to digest. In order to digest their food better, the ostrich will eat stones.

Another angle of these animals attacking a law abiding homeowner in his own front yard. They do this because they know there are no consequences for criminality in New York. They’ve done this before and will do it again.

Today in Gaza, Israeli soldiers raise their flag in the yellow line, which seems to be a hint of an attempt to control these parts forever. This is the reality of colonialism, apartheid, and occupation. People are desperately waiting for their return. Gaza is like a tuna can now. People are melted in it.

13-year-old Muslim boy in Germany says: “This is a land of infidels, and they are obliged to take and welcome us Muslims because we are superior.” Integration is a myth. This is the radicalized mentality they are brought up with.

It is a red lipped batfish and is found off the coast of the Galapagos Islands and Peru. You won't find them at the surface o. They are deep divers. This is because they can't really swim. They mostly walk on the ocean floor. Their modified fins act like legs (kind of).

🚨 Grass Season 2 Airdrop Diamond - Script Users & Real Users 😱 In Season 2, we now have the Diamond feature, and many users are seeing their Diamonds increase over time. However, the growth pattern is very different for everyone. Some users are getting small increases, while others are reporting massive jumps — 500+ Diamonds or even more. In my previous post, many people commented that they have 5K, 17K, 23K, even 25K+ Diamonds. This raises an important question — is this growth actually real, or are some users using scripts? Or could it be influenced by factors like location and network activity? As we know, higher internet activity and connections may result in more Diamonds. Now I want to hear from you 👇 How many Diamonds do you currently have? And do you think this growth is real or manipulated? #GrassSeason2 #Airdrop #Crypto #Web3 #grassseason2update #grassairdorpupdate #grassseason2airdorp #grassseason2scriptusers

Foreigners at the Sawgrass Mall in Florida are seen with this crazy amount of bags all completely full with body sprays I verified this is very common at Sawgrass Mills mall with Victoria’s Secret Forefingers come into America and buy massive amounts of these products to resell in their home countries Sawgrass Mills is a major destination for tourists, particularly from Latin America like Brazil, Venezuela and Colombia. They come specifically for US outlet shopping They buy in massive quantities because items are much cheaper in the US. Many end up purchasing extra luggage just to haul everything home. This is a well-known “luggage phenomenon” at this mall
