Smelling Like An Angel 👼🏽

Researchers found that painting a single blade black on a white wind turbine reduces bird deaths by around 70%. The step makes blades more visible as they spin, even though they sometimes reach speeds of more than 150 miles an hour.

“Because of this high speed the rotor blades become blurred, both for humans as for birds. This effect is called motion smear. The rationale behind painting one of three rotor blades black is to reduce this motion smear effect, making the rotor blades more visible.” 

-Roel May, a senior research scientist at the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research and lead author of the study

Lillakanarie

“If he wanted to, he would,” is a lazy and boring way to think. Yes, it’s true, but it puts all the weight on his shoulders. Don’t be lazy. Don’t be boring. If you want him to treat you like a Queen, then you should be treating him like a King. This isn’t about traditional gender roles or traditional relationships (though, it does seem these elements make for wonderful intimate dynamics), this is about being a partner worthy of your partner’s initiative, vigor, and desire.

Instead of sadly tweeting “If he wanted to, he would,” try having an actual conversation with your partner to figure out why he isn’t. A good man will be open and honest with a good woman, and the problem will not survive the night.
