Pallas's cat, also called the manul, is a small wild cat having a broad but patchy distribution in the grasslands and montane steppe of Central Asia. The species is negatively affected by habitat degradation, prey base decline, and hunting, and has therefore been classified as Near Threatened by IUCN since 2002.

Many species are experts at mimicry and camouflaging with their surroundings in order to remain undisturbed or unseen by predators or their prey. The common potoo, without a doubt, is one of the most talented players of “hide and seek.”

Looking like her old Katniss self again, Academy Award-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence stands tall and strong in the new poster for ‘The Hunger Games’ sequel, ‘Catching Fire.’ In the image, J.Law poses dramatically on a cliff while learning that one day everything the light touches will belong to her. (Or is that ‘Hamlet’ with lions? We always get those confused.) Behind her, the CGI clouds form a shape reminiscent of the Mockingjay, the symbol for which the semi-reluctant revolutionary Katniss is known. The tagline above her head reads, “The sun persists in rising, so I make myself stand,” which is in the opening chapter of the second book. The storyline therein involves how Katniss deals with her new, post-Hunger Games life — including training children how to survive in a fight to the death. (Thanks, allusions to ancient Rome, for your super uplifting young adult film.) Check out the entire poster in all its glory below.

You may have heard of Rihanna‘s not-so-well-received fashion line River Island, but what you may not know is that RiRi herself designed everything — because apparently retail clothing isn’t sexy enough, and sometimes you just want something comfy to wear on fat days. “I just wanted to make stuff that I want to wear. I was being selfish. But hopefully my fans and the River Island customers will have the same tastes. I love everything here,” Rihanna told the cameras while searching through the options in her summer collection. “I [also] needed to make clothes for fat days that I have,” she confusingly added of the skin-tight, short and often made-of-mesh pieces. Check out the video to see RiRi in designer action with such stunning statements as “floral, I think, is timeless” and “I wanted it to be gangsta,” but also for a few insightful comments about how women actually do have different body types.

Angelina Jolie: actress, director, philanthropist. And now, breast cancer activist. Jolie revealed in a self-penned New York Times piece that she recently underwent a double mastectomy, shocking and awing the world — and drawing possibly more attention than ever to the illness and to women’s health as a whole. The Oscar winner revealed that the death of her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, at 56 drove her to preventative surgery to prevent not only cancer, but also to prevent her own six children from having to deal with such a tough loss so young. “I carry a ‘faulty’ gene, BRCA1, which sharply increases my risk of developing breast cancer and ovarian cancer,” Jolie wrote. “My doctors estimated that I had an 87 percent risk of breast cancer and a 50 percent risk of ovarian cancer, although the risk is different in the case of each woman. Only a fraction of breast cancers result from an inherited gene mutation. Those with a defect in BRCA1 have a 65 percent risk of getting it, on average.” Jolie’s cancer risk after her surgeries, which she details in the piece, is now down to less than 5 percent. The proud mom and partner of Brad Pitt, whom she thanks within the editorial for staying with her through every moment of her lengthy and complex procedures, will detail her surgeries on the website of the Pink Lotus Breast Center, where she received her treatment. The most stunning part of all of this? Jolie kept working throughout her recovery, which is why no one knew about her surgeries until now. Damn, lady. Major respect.

Swedish researchers at the Karolinska Institutet have developed a system called SensAbues, which allows them to use breath analysis to test for 12 different drugs in someones system with 20 breaths, including cocaine, marijuana and amphetamines. The reason it works very accurately is because small amounts of molecules from our blood diffuse into the lining fluid of the lungs, therefore reflecting micro-particles of substances in our bloodstream through the breath. This break through in combining science and technology is sure to go into developing something as convenient as the roadside breathalyzers used for alcohol testing, and we might soon see them in U.S.

Kim Kardashian was livid last night after a close encounter with paparazzi, taking to Twitter to vent her frustration. The 32-year-old mother-to-be sent the following missive to her 17 million Twitter followers. This comes mere days after her boyfriend and baby daddy Kanye West walked head-first into a pole and then flipped out on some paparazzi — who were standing a few feet away and seemed generally respectful. Of course, we did learn just last month from Nick Lachey that Kim has a habit of alerting the paps to her location, because in an alternate universe without tabloids, Kim Kardashian would probably not even exist.

After a season off, looks like former ‘Voice‘ coaches Christina Aguilera and Cee Lo Green are set to reclaim their cushy spinning chairs. And, of course, the cushy spinning paychecks that go with them. According to an insider for NBC, Aguilera signed a deal a couple of months ago to return next season but the deal was kept under wraps. As for Cee Lo, the exec told The Wrap, “We are not there yet, but working toward it.” Xtina will make $12.5 million for Season 5, which is quite a bit less than the $17 mil she earned on Season 3, but it still ranks her among the highest-paid women on reality television. Green’s pay isn’t expected to be anywhere near that much. Aguilera does have the opportunity to make more next year, but that depends on how much time she puts in since, weirdly, coaches are paid by the hour. (We can’t even begin to compute the hourly there.) Adam Levine and Blake Shelton, the other two original judges, are also in negotiations but expected to return to the competition, with current judge Shakira anticipated to come back at some point in the future. As for Usher, no word as of yet.

Beyonce added fuel to those pregnancy rumor fires (rumors being vehemently denied by those close to her) by cancelling a concert in Belgium today, May 14, due to a combo of dehydration and exhaustion. In an effort to appease fans, the show was rescheduled and old tickets will be honored at the new show, so at least there’s that. Meanwhile in, ZOMG BEYONCE IS PREGNANT! land, everyone is saying being tired and thirsty is merely a weak cover for being knocked up. Bey also has a show tomorrow, but according to her rep, she’s “awaiting word from her doctors before making a decision” about whether to cancel that as well. Still other conspiracy theorists say Queen Bey just has other obligations, like a rumored arrival on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet (she’s been spotted on its schedule). Could this plot get any thicker? Or more ridiculous for that matter?

Every so often a meme comes along, that really does get the whole internet laughing. Based in Scotland, director Ryan McHenry is the creator of one such meme, it’s called ‘Ryan Gosling Won’t Eat His Cereal‘ and it’s hysterical. Moody and brooding scenes from Gosling’s films are infinitely looped using the Vine app, when suddenly a mysterious hand hovers into view with a spoonful of cereal… The results, as you’re about to see, are just awesome. Make sure you follow McHenry on Twitter to stay up to date with his comedic work and future videos of hilarity.

We’ve previously feature several artists who are masters of photorealism (tricking your vision into think you’re staring at a photograph, when really it’s been created by hand) – but Spanish artist Juan Francisco Casas is unique in that he only use the trusty and humble Bic ballpoint pen. No fancy paints, oils or expensive brushes – just a regular 99c Bic ballpoint and infinite about of skill, patience and finesse.

It’s amazing what can be achieved when nobody is fighting over who takes the credit isn’t it? Here’s a story of one such scenario, it began when a civil engineer, two visual artists, a PR professional and an architect formed an art collective called Boa Mistura in Spain. Their name actually translates into ‘good mixture’, a reference to all the individuals and their professions within the group. They recently headed to one of the poorest and long forgotten house estates in Panama City called El Chorrillo with a goal to restore a sense of pride, vitality, community and creativity to an area which had long fallen into disarray, a concrete blight in a discarded neighbourhood. They opted to injected some much-needed vibrancy into the house block, working closely with locals, they painted the entire facade in rich tones and eye-popping colours. What’s even more impressive is the fact those colours were selected by the tenants themselves and then moulded into one unified design. A multitude of colours, chosen and painted by a community of individuals with their own unique stories. The final design spells out the phrase “Somos Luz” which means ‘We Are Light’ – a shining example that by working together, we can make the world a better place for every individual. http://www.boamistura.com/index.php?pagina=inicio#-1

The great Leonardo de Vinci once stated that “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.” and now more than ever in our fast and furious lives, we need have a desire to know what is happening, instantly, visually and easily. That’s the premise behind a Tumblr account titled 9 Film Frames, where some of the most celebrated movies of our time are summarised neatly and succulently in just 9 frames. Each week new films are distilled into their key scenes and added to the list, but today we wanted to show you a few of our personal favorites from their current selection including The Dark Knight, Memento, Melancholia, Mulholland Drive and more. If you’ve watched the films previously, they will instantly jog your memory but if you haven’t – see if you can you work out the plot using just these 9 snapshots: http://9filmframes.tumblr.com/

We’re grateful for YouTube; every time we turn around, there’s something new and hilarious, baffling, or sometimes even heartwarming. While viral videos come and go, it’s important to remember that there are some universal truths and bits of wisdom in those videos. Where’s the best place for wisdom? On your walls, of course. Whether you work in a depressing cubicle or live in a dank, windowless basement, these inspirational posters will remind you that everyone has something they can teach us. Yes, even screaming goats. We’ve included the original viral videos, in case your memory isn’t quite as long as ours.

The past few years, supergroups have been making a resurgence. Obviously, everybody loves it when musicians from different bands they like join forces, because it’s interesting to hear what they do musically, and also because you save money on concert tickets. Our pals at Diffuser took things a step further and came up with five awesome supergroups based on hipster faves like She & Him and Matt & Kim. (She & Kim. Get it??) Click below to see some supergroups we wish we could see at this summer’s music festivals.

Thanks, Buzzfeed! Not only can you name all the ways Todd Akin is just like Zach Morris, or whatever, you also managed to take all of the most annoying things about living in NYC and stick them in one video! We are now irrationally angry. Watch this video and be irrationally angry too. Or at least feel comforted in knowing you’re one of millions of people who are also walking around at maximum annoyance level pretty much all the time.

Sincerely, Facebook chatting is the worst. At least when you’re G-chatting with somebody and they don’t write back you can pretend that maybe they accidentally set their hand on fire or something. But not Facebook. Facebook wants you to know they’ve seen your message, and they don’t feel like writing back. We feel like this video from video sketch comedy team Truth Paste boils it down to its essence pretty well.
