WE'VE GOT PLENTY OF SCORPIONS WE'D BE WILLING TO DONATE: Scorpion venom could lead to new antibiotics.
UM. OKAY, I GUESS: Hillary Clinton compares decision to not divorce Bill to parenting a transgender child.
I wonder if Bill is rethinking his decision not to divorce Hillary....

FALLING LEAVES, EPISODE IV: As usual, a day late and a dollar short; for the purpose of this post, today is yesterday.
Here's the first of three: my usual pond view. If it looks a bit different from last week, it's because it's summer again - hot, dry, and for a few days, windy. All the browns, reds, and yellows got shook loose in the winds and the trees are (at least temporarily) green again.
The pond is a bit more visible, mostly because all the low plants and grasses have died off.
The next two pictures are new to my collection. Both were taken where our 'road' crosses the dam across the subdivision's small pond, shown here. The leaves on the pond surface are leftovers; when the wind was at its peak, the pond looked more like a flat meadow covered with leaves.
This last picture as also from the dam, looking down the creek (overflow from the small pond, actually) as it flows to the larger pond pictured above. The creek and large pond aren't visible, and the flat area covered with leaves is a 'wetland' as the creek overflows during heavy rains.
It's usually quite green, but the foliage has mostly already died off and is now covered by the heavy leaf fall from last week's winds.
Last week's pictures are here.
