FACTS : 5 Color Facts
1. Seeing red
Like a large number of animals, bulls are colour blind and can’t see red. So it’s a common misconception that a matador’s red cloth is what gets a charging bull wound up.

2. Sticky light
Try ripping a piece of sticky tape off the roll in the dark. This separates positive and negative electrical charges – when they recombine, it creates a flash of blueish light.

3. Slow sparkle
Want to slow light down? It travels at its slowest inside a diamond. Even then, it still manages a fairly impressive 124,000 kilometres (77,000 miles) per second!

4. Whiter than white
Ever seen white clothes glow under a UV light? Laundry detergents contain optical brighteners, which emit blue light under UV to stop your whites from looking yellow.

5. How many colours?
By measuring our eyes’ top performances, scientists have estimated that we can distinguish up to 10 million colours, though thankfully we don’t have names for them all!

Musee du Quai Branly, Paris
A controversial new landmark for Paris, Jean Nouvel’s Musee du Quai Branly, is certainly unlike anything else that can be found within the city. The exterior is covered in a lush, jungle-like proliferation of greenery covering more than 650 feet. The architect used Patrick Blanc’s Vertical Garden System, which consists of a PVC layer, felt and a metal frame.

Submarine in the street of Milan
Like the sight of a Ferris wheel in the ocean after Hurricane Sandy, a surfaced submarine in the streets of Milan is just as much a bizarre spectacle. Although, one was caused by a natural disaster, while the other was contrived by an insurance company as part of a marketing campaign labeled “Protect You Life.’ We have to give it up to the Europ Assistance IT insurance group, clever, very clever. -jm
