A Brazilian spider delivers more than a painful bite that sends most victims to the hospital. Its venom stimulates an hours-long erection. Now scientists have figured out the chemical that seems to be responsible for the penis boost. In Brazil, emergency room staff can immediately spot the victims of a bite from the Brazilian wandering spider (Phoneutria nigriventer). Patients not only experience overall pain and an increase in blood pressure, they also sport an uncomfortable erection.
Archie was the first search engine on the internet. It was created in 1990 by Alan Emtage, a student at McGill University in Montreal, Canada. Archie was designed to index FTP (File Transfer Protocol) archives to help users locate specific files. While it was not a web search engine like we have today, it laid the groundwork for the development of search engines that followed.

Canada, as a country, has the longest coastline in the world, measuring over 200,000 km. The coastline is surrounded by three oceans and makes up almost 57% of the world’s total coastline.
While working in the garden today, I noticed an unusual scene unfolding at the edge of our pond. A dragonfly had come down to lay her eggs, dipping delicately to the water’s surface. As she was focused on her task, a group of backswimmers (small, predatory water bugs that often glide along on their backs) seemed to take an interest.
The dragonfly, preoccupied with laying her eggs, didn’t seem to notice the backswimmers gathering below. In a sudden move, they closed in, managing to drag her beneath the water's surface. The dragonfly, vulnerable in this brief moment, became their prey.
It was a surprising sight to witness in the quiet of the garden. I’ve always known about the life around our pond, but watching this interaction up close was a reminder of the hidden, and sometimes brutal, dynamics in nature that happen all around us.
