scinerds: Sperm Works Best in the Winter, Study Finds Researchers at Israel’s Ben-Gurion University of the Negev found that sperm concentration and the percentage of fast motility—the ability to move spontaneously and independently—decreased significantly from spring into summer and fall, rebounding in the winter. The physical structure of the sperm cells was also the healthiest in the winter months, according to the study, which tested 6,455 semen samples over the course of three years. “This study was aimed to explore the possibility that changing weather is somehow related to the quality of sperm, a phenomenon well known from the animal world,” study leader Eliahu Levitas said in an email.

Mudhouse Mansion is located in Fairfield County, Ohio. Built between the 1840s - 1870’s the house is believed to be haunted, by locals. The home has not been occupied since the 1930’s.

We drive past several such houses on our way to/from South Bend…
And as far as we can tell they are all a)haunted b)unoccupied since the 1930s.

Digital Collages of People Climbing Stairs by Jiyen Lee via MMM

Korean artist Jiyen Lee has created a series of hypnotizing digital collages that present people going up and down stairs, as seen from a bird’s eye view. Each puzzling assemblage features an unidentifiable traffic of pedestrians on an endless journey. It also remains unclear whether they are actually ascending or descending the steps in front of them, as Lee has taken the artistic liberty of reconfiguring images in unimaginable compositions. Like an M. C. Escher painting, the artist’s digitally manipulated images present a saturation of staircases with no perceivable beginning or end.
