While it’s not drywall and foundation based, these homes come compact and easy to deliver with simple installation instructions. With Abod homes able to reach the far corners of the world and people who need it most, this can revolutionize housing for the poverty stricken parts of the globe.</p> </blockquote>http://sherricruz.tumblr.com/post/50791861787http://sherricruz.tumblr.com/post/50791861787Sat, 18 May 2013 22:37:42 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m9aix8xSzX1qhq27ao1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://gytrash.tumblr.com/post/50739837573/gallifreyan" target="_blank">gytrash</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Gallifreyan River</p> </blockquote>http://sherricruz.tumblr.com/post/50772193179http://sherricruz.tumblr.com/post/50772193179Sat, 18 May 2013 17:43:52 -0700<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/62e87b20082a95f720e0b3cf0cf1b0be/tumblr_mn0ffhQzcp1s9458ro1_500.gif"/><br/><br/>http://sherricruz.tumblr.com/post/50771928640http://sherricruz.tumblr.com/post/50771928640Sat, 18 May 2013 17:39:43 -0700<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/f2baca251e134a8b311df27276acb21a/tumblr_mmulh8nwkQ1qzpyz2o4_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/a740bcad0ac88f9f61966d79eec73e93/tumblr_mmulh8nwkQ1qzpyz2o2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/40de512cae12effe22de67fdb7565ed2/tumblr_mmulh8nwkQ1qzpyz2o1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/b710f658acc146b5f60c4f4a40a0a853/tumblr_mmulh8nwkQ1qzpyz2o3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://letsbuildahome.fr/post/50685959268/wadi-al-salaam-the-largest-cemetery-in-the-world" target="_blank">letsbuildahome-fr</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Wadi Al-Salaam: The Largest Cemetery in The World via <a href="http://www.amusingplanet.com/2013/05/wadi-al-salaam-largest-cemetery-in-world.html" target="_blank">Amusing Planet</a></strong></p> <p><em><span>Wadi us-Salaam, which literally means the Valley of Peace, is an Islamic cemetery located in the holy city of Najaf, Iraq.

Najaf itself is one of Iraq’s biggest cities, with a population of nearly 600,000. But the adjoining city of the dead holds the remains of millions, stretching for up to 10km along the valley.

Rather, fields of carnations and marigolds seem to bloom from the surface of a submerged glass slide, assembling themselves a molecule at a time.</p> <p>By simply manipulating chemical gradients in a beaker of fluid, Wim L. Noorduin, a postdoctoral fellow at the Harvard School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) and lead author of a paper appearing on the cover of the May 17 issue of <em>Science</em>, has found that he can control the growth behavior of these crystals to create precisely tailored structures.</p> <p>“For at least 200 years, people have been intrigued by how complex shapes could have evolved in nature. This work helps to demonstrate what’s possible just through environmental, chemical changes,” says Noorduin.</p> <p><a href="http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2013-05/hu-bs051613.php"
