Phillip K. Smith is an American artist who explores perceptions of light, color, and space and he found the best place to do it. Smith installed nearly 250 mirrored posts on a coast in Laguna Beach, California, ensuring that they reflect the waves instead of being “swallowed” by their force.

The outdoor work is a quarter mile long and has been commissioned by the Laguna Art Museum. “Stretching along much of Main Beach, the arc forms a visible marker between the man-made and natural worlds,” Smith said. “[It] reflects the changing colours of the ocean, sky, and shoreline throughout the day and night.”

The reflective poles were made from stainless steel and stand about 10 feet (3 metres) high, evenly spaced along the coast. “Viewers may experience ¼ Mile Arc both from a distance, with vantage points all along the cliffs and street, and from close up on the beach.” There have been concerns that these poles might be dangerous to birds, but it was displayed only a couple of days and no reports about bird harm were released. Finally, the sunset got to see how beautiful it really is. (Source)

When her soon-to-be humans came over to adopt her sister, kitten Zoë charmed them into adopting her as well. She had a little trick up her chest: a big black heart-marking. Remarkably, no one had noticed this anatomically correct heart patch before then. Her humans fell in love with Zoë on the spot, and the two tuxedo sisters remained united. As Zoë grew, so did her heart and her fur. Her longer coat has earned her the nickname ‘The Fluff’, though she also goes by ‘Queen Of Hearts’.

Zoë and her sister Izzy have their own Instagram account, where they currently have nearly 75.000 followers. At first, most attention went to Zoë and her adorable heart-marking. But recently, the sisters have become equally popular as Izzy has amassed quite the fanbase of her own due to her irresistible and expressive face. (Source)

But…that isn’t an anatomically correct heart?

@sixpenceee

It means the cat’s heart is actually located in the black heart patch!

A blind woman left doctors stunned when she could suddenly see again after ‘switching personalities’.

The German patient, referred to only as B.T., was diagnosed with so-called cortical blindness after an accident damaged the part of her brain responsible for sight when she was 20. The now 37-year-old also has a condition known as dissociative identity disorder (DID), where multiple personalities battle to control her personality.

In total, she has 10 personalities, doctors treating her reported. And it was during treatment for this disorder that something remarkable happened.While she was in her teenage boy personality, her ability to see returned.Incredibly, over the course of the therapy, she regained her sight while in eight out of ten of her personalities.The woman’s vision turned on and off ‘within seconds’, depending on which personality she was experiencing, the doctors treating her reported in PsyCh Journal.
