Thomas Jefferson illegal smuggled Italian rice from Italy in 1787 to help boost the American economy by shoving it in his pockets. Just imagine Jerfferson walking as casually as possible with pockets full of rice trying not to get arrested.

Mermaid Magic

I was researching mermaids and the magic surrounding them and I couldn’t find a post or location that just had basic information about mermaids. A lot of them just felt like the person reading should have prior knowledge. So I decided to make this post of my research to help others that may be interested in these creatures. This post links to various articles that I found useful.

Hey if you’re not tired of all the eclipse posts in every other corner of your life, here’s one more!

Eclipses aren’t just cool to view - they also give scientists a small window of time to study things. Many animals shift to nighttime behaviors, only to reemerge a few minutes later when the sun returns. Temperatures can drop up to 20 degrees. Most importantly, the Sun’s corona becomes visible - normally it is difficult to study because its light is weak compared to the rest of the Sun. With the Moon blocking the Sun, scientists can make observations about the corona and try to understand the coronal mass ejections that can knock out satellites and power grids.
