If cemeteries in general give you the chills this place is really going to freak you out. Web spinning caterpillars have taken over a cemetery in the United Kingdom. They are believed to be bird cherry tree ermine moths. These types of caterpillars form communal webs. They later turn into white moths with black dots.
Nova Bickmore, 69, could not believe the sight when she visited her father's grave.
She said: ‘There were thousand upon thousand of caterpillars and a silk web all over the trees, which had no leaves left.
‘Some of the caterpillars were hanging down from the trees and others were all over the floor.
‘It was a really ghostly scene.’ In their caterpillar stage, the bugs, known as web worms, weave leaves of trees together and eat them from their nests.
Charlie Martin's van broke down and she really wanted to play some slots. This strong willed senior took to her motorized scooter and hopped onto the freeway in hopes of reaching the casino. She had to pull over because her oxygen tank was low. As she got up she tumbled into the bushes and had to be rescued.
She said she took the fastest route possible, which is Interstate 25.
"I only had one person yell at me and it was a kid," Martin said. "I told him to shut up."
She was taken to the hospital to be checked over. Even after all that she was still hoping to get a ride to the casino.
A medical examiner in Oregon has concluded that a 6 year old girl committed suicide after being sent to her room. The police disagree with the finding and view it as an accident. The question has become whether a small child has the mental capacity to commit suicide.
While her mother and three siblings were in another part of the house, the authorities said, Samantha got inside an unused crib that had no mattress or box spring. She placed a child's belt around her neck and tied it to the upper railing of the crib, hanging herself. The first-grader died at a hospital after the family and paramedics tried to save her.
Dr. Clifford Nelson, the deputy state medical examiner, ruled the death a suicide, a conclusion police did not support.
"The disagreement is a little more philosophical than it is material to the case," McMinnville police Capt. Dennis Marks said prior to the public records request. "It's not that we disagree with the mechanics of what happened. It's the finding that a 6-year-old could form that kind of intent."
Nelson said it's a disturbing case, but he couldn't "fudge the facts to make people feel better."
For now, her death is listed as the youngest suicide on record in Oregon. This classification will likely have both legal and societal implications.
As a side note: this obviously falls under the "orama" part of neatorama. As a parent I personally found the article incredibly disturbing on many levels.

Jaime Escalante, the East Los Angeles Math teacher made famous by the movie Stand and Deliver, has died after a battle with cancer.
The subject of the 1988 film "Stand and Deliver," Escalante died at his son's home in Roseville, Calif., said actor Edward James Olmos, who portrayed the teacher in the film. Escalante had bladder cancer.
"Jaime didn't just teach math. Like all great teachers, he changed lives," Olmos said earlier this month when he organized an appeal for funds to help pay Escalante's mounting medical bills.
Escalante gained national prominence in the aftermath of a 1982 scandal surrounding 14 of his Garfield High School students who passed the Advanced Placement calculus exam only to be accused later of cheating.
The story of their eventual triumph -- and of Escalante's battle to raise standards at a struggling campus of working-class, largely Mexican American students -- became the subject of the movie, which turned the balding, middle-aged Bolivian immigrant into the most famous teacher in America.
Like Miss Cellania earlier posted, scientists today are celebrating the success of the Large Hadron Collider. CERN scientists were able to collide protons at energy levels never seen before, marking the beginning of a whole new world of physics experimentation. And, again we say, "Yippee No Black Holes."
There was cheering in the control room at CERN, the European nuclear research centre in Switzerland, as one of the biggest and most complicated scientific experiments got fully underway.
The experiment is seen as a major breakthrough in efforts to understand the fundamental nature of the universe.
