Sometimes, it's hard to put into words what you want to find on the internet. You just know it has to be interesting, catch your eye, make you think, and teach you something new.

Well, today, we've got just that – interesting things. From a close-up look at a grain of sand magnified 300 times to discovering how music was notated before computers, you're likely to find something captivating. No need to wait any longer—dive in and explore this digital realm of fascination for yourself.

The Local Nursing Home Is An Indoor Town. There's A Movie Theater And A Pub

This place is called "Doverwood Village". It's a skilled nursing facility located in Hamilton, OH. Senior residents receive 24-hour medical care while also getting the rehabilitation care they need, which can include range of motion exercises, gait and balance training and individualized exercise programs. The movie theater shows movies 2x each day. An old one and a new one.

Why do we find some things interesting and others boring? Why can one person be bored by something that's fascinating to someone else?

Why might someone yawn while watching a movie their friend is excited about? We know everyone is different, but what determines how interested we are in something?

There are actually three main reasons:

First, people are naturally drawn to things that match their feelings and beliefs. For example, those in love enjoy romantic songs, and funny folks love comedy movies. Friends often like the same stuff because they share feelings and beliefs.

Second, people really like hearing stories from others who've gone through similar things. When I hurt my back, I was super interested in any story about back injuries. It's like our minds know we could learn something useful, and these stories remind us we're not alone.

Third, we all have unmet needs, and what interests us is often linked to these needs. If something helps us get closer to fulfilling one of our important needs, it becomes interesting. For example, if someone hates being single, they won't enjoy staying home or watching TV; they'll prefer social media and going out. This also explains why we find certain people captivating – they help us meet our needs.

This Is What Some Grains Of Sand Look Like When Magnified 100 To 300 Times

This Is What Some Grains Of Sand Look Like When Magnified 100 To 300 Times

Gary Greenberg introduces himself as a scientist, author, teacher and photographer who combines his passion for art and science by exploring the hidden dimensions of nature. "The secrets of nature are visible everywhere. Yet, they remain secrets until they are revealed," he wrote on his website."The miracles of nature are tangible, and they can be seen directly through the microscope. The magnificence of nature lies in its consciousness. When we commune with nature, we become conscious of our connection with the universe."
And he knows what he's talking about. Greenberg invented the high-definition 3D lenses that he takes his pictures on, resulting in 18 U.S. patents under his name. He was a photographer and filmmaker until age 33 when he moved from LA to London and earned a Ph. D. in biomedical research. This has given him a unique appreciation for biological and scientific curiosities and for the optical macro photography technologies he would need to document them.
The sand composition can vary drastically depending on where it’s from, but this grain is from a beach in Hawaii, where Dr. Greenberg is located.

What does it mean for something to be interesting? It's all about how an experience feels to the person having it. This is about the personal, inside perspective of an experience. For example, eating your favorite food feels good not because the food itself is pleasurable, but because the experience of eating it is enjoyable.

Similarly, when we say something is beautiful or awe-inspiring, we're not talking about the thing itself but how we feel about it. We look at a breathtaking sunset, and it moves us; the beauty is what we feel. The same goes for awe—it's a part of how we react to it. Interest works in this way too; it's about how we feel and engage with something.

The exact origin of the Bashkir Curly Horse is one of the greatest mysteries of the horse world. Horses with curly coats are most certainly an ancient breed. They have been depicted in art and statuary in early China as far back as 161 AD. There has been evidence of their presence in South America and Europe. There is evidence that Curlies have been in North America since the early 1800's.

Saying something is interesting means explaining a mix of your expectations, preferences, beliefs, and curiosity that you bring to an activity. This blend shapes how you experience the activity. What makes something interesting is this unique combination, which varies for each person. There's no single formula for making something universally interesting. Sometimes it's the clash between expectations and reality, while other times, it's a person's curiosity that uncovers intriguing aspects of an activity.

Sun Through A UV Lens

Sun Through A UV Lens

A suite of NASA's sun-gazing spacecraft have spotted an unusual series of eruptions in which a series of fast puffs forced the slow ejection of a massive burst of solar material from the sun's atmosphere. "Looking at the corona in extreme ultraviolet light we see the source of the puffs is a series of energetic jets and related flares," said Nathalia Alzate, a solar scientist at the University of Aberystwyth in Wales. "The jets are localized, catastrophic releases of energy that spew material out from the sun into space. These rapid changes in the magnetic field cause flares, which release a huge amount of energy in a very short time in the form of super-heated plasma, high-energy radiation and radio bursts."

Marketed in the 1950s, it sold for about $255 (about $2,415 in today’s money). Keaton was trying to create something that would print characters precisely on staff and indicate exactly where the next character would be printed to ensure accuracy, and ended up with a circular keyboard which gives the typewriter its distinct look.

This Butterfly Is A Bilateral Gynandromorph, Literally Half Male, Half Female

This Butterfly Is A Bilateral Gynandromorph, Literally Half Male, Half Female

A gynandromorph is an organism that contains both male and female characteristics. But this butterfly is a bilateral gynandromorph, which means one half is completely female and the other half is completely male. The cause of this phenomenon is typically, but not always, an event in mitosis during early development. While the organism contains only a few cells, one of the dividing cells does not split its sex chromosomes typically. This leads to one of the two cells having sex chromosomes that cause male development and the other cell having chromosomes that cause female development. For example, an XY cell undergoing mitosis duplicates its chromosomes, becoming XXYY. Usually this cell would divide into two XY cells, but in rare occasions the cell may divide into an X cell and an XYY cell. If this happens early in development, then a large portion of the cells are X and a large portion are XYY. Since X and XYY dictate different sexes, the organism has tissue that is female and tissue that is male.

Experts believe it could be a Salpa maggiore (Salpa maxima), commonly found in the Southern Ocean. Salps tend to roam the upper layers of the ocean where sunlight can still penetrate. They move by straining water through their gelatinous bodies, feeding on phytoplankton and other small bits of organic matter. The ghostly appearance is believed to be a form of camouflage for the otherwise defenseless creature.

Albino Plant

Albino Plant

Trees, like animals, can also experience albinism, though it is extremely rare. The reason it’s rare is because without chlorophyll, the plant can’t get energy, and dies shortly after sprouting unless it has some other source of food. So if you see a big plant that doesn’t have any green in its leaves, it’s getting its nutrition from the roots of a neighbouring plant of the same species, feeding on the sugars created by the other plant’s photosynthesis. Albino plants are basically vampires.

Whittier Is A City In The U.S. State Of Alaska. The Population Is Around 220 And They All Live In A Single Building

Whittier, Alaska, a town where nearly everyone lives in the same building. The fourteen-story high-rise—called Begich Towers, or BTI—contains a post office, a police station, a grocery store, a Laundromat, a health clinic, and a church. (There once was a combination video rental store and tanning salon, but it’s been closed for a while now.) Built by the US Army in the 1950s, BTI originally housed officers and their families, and though its concrete walls have since been given a cheerful paint job, the fortress-like, institutional feel remains.

Many landforms have their own distinct colors, telling a complex geological and climatological story that scientists have only just begun to decode.
