Frozen Aquarium in Japan - Kori no Suizokukan



A Frozen Aquarium? Japan back with another cool inventions, this is the first frozen aquarium in the world. As a way of battling the summer heatwave that hit Japan this year, authorities have inaugurated a frozen aquarium that will keep visitors cool and entertained.

Kori no Suizokukan is located in Kesennuma, Miyagi Prefecture and features around 450 specimens of around 80 species of marine wildlife, all captured at a nearby sea port. Visitors can enjoy a brief break from the scorching sun and admire all sorts of fish, crabs or octopuses, as well as unusual objects like action figures, bottles of sake, or flowers, all embedded in huge blocks of ice.

The Frozen Aquarium was inaugurated, in Kesennuma’s fish market, in 2002, and uses flash-freezing technology to conserve fresh specimens and keep them looking so good.

While the Frozen Aquarium is a welcome tourist attraction, visitors can only spend a few minutes inside. Because temperatures inside the aquarium reach -20 degrees Celsius, a special suit is needed to keep people from becoming freezing exhibits themselves. Without these special suits, visitors would start feeling severe pains in just five minutes time.

Two Moons Phenomena | Moon and Mars 2010



This night on 27 august 2010, we will see an amazing space phenomena where we can see moon and mars together, it will looks like a double moon, or two moons together, on that time planet mars will be on the nearest distance to earth. This event will happen again on 2287. So don't forget to see this moon and mars together on 27 august 2010 this night. A rumors said that this night moon and mars will have a similar size if we look from the land.

“two moons of 2010” in the sky, and it is not very far. On August 27, while Mars will grow to the size of the full moon, the people of this land you can see this amazing scene. It had been said that the Planet of Mars will be very close to the Earth where the distance between these two planets will be estimated to in the radius of thirty five million miles only. Mars will just look as large as the moon in the sky and it will be thought that two moons will be seen at one time at the Planet Earth even though the truth will be different from the actual situation. According to the NASA officials this was going to happen yesterday at 12.30 pm at the time of mid night. According to the calculations of the NASA officials this scene will be created after a long period of time in the year 2287 hopefully.

The Moon and Mars August 2010 controversy has confused the people a lot as this rumor was considered a half truth as the NASA officials are good at studying the movement of the planet

The encounter will culminate on August 27th when Mars comes to within 34,649,589 miles of Earth and will be (next to the moon) the brightest object in the night sky. It will attain a magnitude of -2.9 and will appear 25.11 arc seconds wide at a modest 75-power magnification.

Chevron and Etsy Find!



So, I meant to post this a while ago and since I didn't, the chevron pattern is probably on the "out " list already!!  But, anywho, this painted wall pattern was something I did while "nesting" this past spring and I thought I would share it with you.  I had hoped for broader stripes, but after I was finished measuring and taping one wall, I decided to stick with what I had done-skinny stripe or not!!!  I can say without hesitation that I will never attempt this myself again!!! Thank goodness I was happy with the outcome because it took MANY hours to create!!!  A template would have been nice had I searched the web before beginning!!!! 

Foyer


I know it looks like my lines don't meet up very well (which is true) but there are some weird jut outs with the walls in the foyer-the space is only about a 4'X4' space so things were tight to say the least. 


So, below is my awesome find on Etsy, thanks to my friend Sidney Wagner over at www.eclecticinteriordesigngroup.blogspot.com.  A few days back she had a post about growth charts and one of the ones listed was a seller on Etsy at WowWall.  They are decal stickers so ou can move around from wall to wall if you so choose.  And the best part was it was only @ $35!  I don't know if you can tell, but the one I got is orange.  They do carry several different colors fyi!

Little R's Room

I am aware of how bad my photography is, but once again, the space when you enter Little R's room is very small.  The door to his room can barely open without touching the wall.  So, here are some attempts to get a few shots of the growth chart.  Next up, measuring the boys!
Align Center
Two more terrible angles but you get the idea!
