Oh my god, someone has footage of it! I remember one time my dad, lil brother, and I were leaving a Ryan’s. We were waiting for a chance to hop onto the road and in the distance we just saw everything turn grey. We saw it come closer and closer and come to find out it was rain!
It was just a wall of rain – the end of the rain, really. I’ve never seen it again, but it’s so cool to see footage of the edge of rain!
On Tuesday, a 2016 update on The Spice Girls 1996 hit “Wannabe” started making the rounds, featuring artists from Nigeria, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Canada, the U.K., and America putting forth new ideas for what they really, really want: end violence against girls, quality education for all girls, end child marriage, equal pay for equal work.

Science teacher Mas Subramanian and
his team at Oregon State University
accidentally discovered a new shade of
blue while creating new electronics
materials. YInMn blue, named after
yttrium, indium, and manganese, has a
unique, crystal structure that keeps it
from fading and is a new candidate for
energy efficiency because it can also
reflect infrared light.

Existing blue pigments include ultramarine, which is made from ground lapis lazuli, as well as toxic alternatives like cobalt and Prussian blue, making OSU’s discovery a major breakthrough.
