  • The crumbling village of Gallipienzo, in Navarra, Spain is built on the side of a hill and is utterly charming. The houses are built of stone and mortar. The old mortar is crumbling and is patched in places. Several of the homes are newly renovated but the owners kept the original ideas of the houses in place which is what is keeping the village charming.

  • Biosphere 2 Project Insectarium seen at dusk. The Biosphere was a privately funded experiment, designed to investigate the way in which humans interact with a small self-sufficient ecological environment, and to look at possibilities for future planetary colonization. The $30 million Biosphere covers 2.5 acres near Tucson, Arizona, and was entirely self-contained. The eight 'Biospherian's' shared their air- and water- tight world with 3,800 species of plant and animal life over their two-year stay in the building, producing all of their own food and supporting the whole environment in five 'biomes'; agricultural, rain forest, savannah, ocean and marsh.  1989

  • Felipe Adams, a 30-year-old Iraq war veteran, gripping his leg tightly as he experiences one of many episodes of phantom pain at his parents home in Inglewood, California. (From the book What I Eat: Around the World in 80 Diets.) The caloric value of his day's worth of food on a day in the month of September was 2100 kcals. He is 30 years of age; 5 feet, 10 inches tall; and 135 pounds. Felipe was paralyzed by a sniper's bullet in Baghdad, Iraq. Damaged nerves that normally enervate a missing or paralyzed body part can trigger the body's most basic warning that something isn't right: pain. Felipe experiences these phantom pains, which feel like stabbing electric shocks, dozens of times a day; they cause him to grip his leg tightly for a moment or two until the sensation subsides. MODEL RELEASED.

  • The tips of the gecko's toes are covered with corrugations of fantastic complexity. The corrugations are lines of tiny hairs. Flattened in the right way against a surface, the hairs lie so tightly on the surface that the gecko's toes literally form a kind of chemical bond with it. (In technical terms, the gecko takes advantage of van der Waals force.) This is a phenomenon that intrigues researcher Alan DiPietro, of iRobot, in Somerville, MA. Clinging to the glass wall of a terrarium opposite a real gecko, DiPietro's crude, 13-centimeter-long, 100-gram Mecho-gecko has sticky feet that let it clumsily cling to walls, at least for short intervals. From the book Robo sapiens: Evolution of a New Species, page 92-93.
