Anna Scripps Whitcomb Conservatory, Belle Isle (Detroit) Michigan

William Edmund Scripps was the publisher of the Detroit News, founder of WWJ radio, an early aviation pioneer, and part founder of the Scripps-Booth Automobile company.

The Scripps mansion, located in Lake Orion Michigan (on Scripps Road, fittingly), is still standing and is an "auto baron" residence similar to Meadowbrook, Cranbrook, or the Edsel Ford Estate.

A truck carrying ammonium nitrate wheels caught fire, the truck flipped, and it exploded in southern Arkansas Wednesday morning, and this is the size of the explosion crater and the surrounding damage to the forest on U.S. 278 near Arkansas 57.

Where did the truck end up? The explosion must have put it airborne.

There is no truck. The blast was so powerful it was heard 100 miles away.

Some interesting facts about the Montauk Point Lighthouse:

1. It was the first lighthouse built in NY state
2. It is the fourth-oldest active lighthouse in the United States.
3. It was the first public works project of the new United States.
4. Looking at the photo above, the erosion of Turtle Hill since the lighthouse was built has been severe. Originally the lighthouse was 300 feet from the edge. Now it is 100 feet.

The Brazilian wandering spider once held the Guinness World Record for being the most venomous animal in the world.

The top prize for “The World Most Venomous Animal,” would go to the Box Jelly (biologists have dropped the “fish” from “jellyfish” as it is a misnomer). It has caused at least 5,567 recorded deaths since 1954.

If you are thinking this is a hotel . . . . it's not. Nor is it a castle. It's Maison d'Arręt. Never heard of it? It's the prison in Monaco.

Prisoners facing southeast look out over the calm, deep blue waters of the sea—views that others around them pay tens of millions of dollars to enjoy.
