Do any of you guys ever seen a strawberry shake colored lake?
Well, I bet you didn’t… Am I right? Oh, yeah, I know, now you think I’m
talking nonsense. But, you are wrong! There is such a thing on this
Earth, and just for your information it is located in Senegal, Africa and it is called Retba. We can thank for the color to a rare sort of algae - Dunaliella salina - that basically makes this lake pink. Another thing is that the lake has a high percentage of the salt, like the
Dead sea, so people can’t drown so easily. Those two things - salt (that
is not usual for a lake) and the strawberry shake (…yummy…) make it a
completely strange but unique lake; one of a kind in our world.

Amazing Art of Ancient Calendars
These ancient calendars are brilliant works of art, check them out and be amazed!
The human race has a long way from living in caves in the strong age to
planning to settle on different planets in this technologically advanced
age. All this has become possible because of the curiosity of few
intelligent individuals in the movement of astral bodies in the sky.
They observed the movements of various planets in space night and day
and chartered their path, speed and locations in the sky at different
times for the posterity. Over a period of time, such individuals came
together, formed an association and started publishing their results for
the knowledge of general public. It was because of the royal patronage
that different types of “ephemeris” (detailed day-to-day movements of
the planets in the sky) based on either the sun or moon came into
existence. Over a period of time these were refined further. A variety
of such calendars existed all over the world, some of which are given
below.

county that they plan to visit. With a car rental, you will take control
of the wheel and decide which roads to traverse. No matter which choice
you make, you should be aware of the most dangerous roadways in Europe

original, they are indeed good for a few laughs. Put on your silly hat

From Missing To Murdered Photo Gallery
Aliahna Lemmon
Aliahna Lemmon, 9, went missing Friday on December
23, 2011. She and her sisters had been staying with neighbor/family
friend Mike Plumadore, 39, while her mother, Tarah Souders, 28,
recovered from the flu. Souder told police that Aliahna, who was hard of
hearing and had Attention Deficit Disorder, needed supervision that her
husband, who worked nights and slept during the day, was unable to
provide. Plumadore, who had watched the children before, was the one who
called to report Aliahna as missing. Police were concerned because
there were 15 registered sex offenders living in the area where the girl
had disappeared. On Monday, sadly, police found Aliahna's body and
arrested Plumadore, whom they had already interviewed several times. He
allegedly confessed to beating her to death with a brick, and then
dismembering her body. He stored her head, hands and feet in his
freezer, and dumped the rest of her remains in garbage bags. Though
Plumadore has a police record in Florida, it does not include sex
offenses. No motive has been established for the murder.Trending Car Modifications – LED Lit Door Handles
