Its bark can take on a yellow, green, orange and even purple shading. If you'd like to see this exotic tree you'd have to travel to Indonesia, Papua New Guinea or Philippines where the tree grows natively.
This beautiful insect is named Eucharitid wasp. They're specialized parasitoids and they prey on ants. Larvae of the Eucharitid wasp latch on to a passing ant and are carried to the ant nest.

Such a punk - just wants to stay at someone's place for free and eat their food:)

We love to watch animals. There's something magical about witnessing a way they behave in the wilderness, there's so much in common between us; the way we love, protect, fight for survival, kid around, and... get mad:) Sit back relax and enjoy the angry faces of the animal world, and think of your own face expression when you feel like they feel, I can definitely see myself in some of them LOL. Do we have to be like that? Nope

“Faking It: Manipulated Photography before Photoshop” is an exhibition that takes a look at manipulated photography from the 1840s until the 1990s, when digital photo editing largely replaced manual techniques. The exhibition includes some 200 works, from quaint Victorian trick photography to misleading propaganda images.
"The urge to modify camera images is as old as photography itself—only the methods have changed. Nearly every type of manipulation we now associate with digital photography was also part of the medium’s pre-digital repertoire: smoothing away wrinkles, slimming waistlines, adding people to a scene (or removing them)—even fabricating events that never took place."
Before Photoshop photo manipulation took a lot more work. Take a look at these amazing older manipulated photos.
In the southeastern corner of Europe, the small country of Albania is covered by more than 700,000 bunkers—that’s 1 bunker for every 4 Albanians. The bunkers were built at enormous cost between 1967 and 1985 as part of the paranoid national defense strategy of the country’s longtime communist dictator, Enver Hoxha. Though the bunkers saturate the country from its beaches to its city streets, they were of little military value and were never used during Hoxha’s 40 year rule. Due to the cost and difficulty of removing the bunkers they still remain. They now serve as tourist attractions, homes, make-out spots, but mostly, they’re eyesores.

Jason Molina, A Folksinger Who Embodied The Best Of The Blues, Has Died. Jason Molina, who died Saturday at 39, of what his label, Secretly Canadian, calls natural causes, wasn't a blues singer, exactly. In a prolific underground career spanning more than 15 years, his songs mostly took on the form of confessional folk music — a man and a guitar, or a man and a band, singing bruised and barren songs of longing and lost salvation like so many others before and since. RIP Jason.
This neighborhood got a complete makeover. The entire neighborhood was transformed into a giant street art project. This is super cool. What a fun neighborhood to be a part of.

Casting the devil is a tricky thing; if you're not going with a caricature of a cloven-hooved man all in red with horns then you're going to have to watch what kind of face you put on the face of evil. History Channel's 10-part miniseries hit "The Bible," however, cast an actor (Mohamen Mehdi Ouazani) to play Satan that -- to some -- seems uncomfortably familiar... Do you see the resemblance?

We’ve previously given you glimpse into the world of yesteryear technology ripped and stripped down to its bare skeleton, but rather than breaking down products & devices to their most basic parts, how about reconfiguring & resembling them into something utterly different? One man’s trash, is another man’s treasure as they say. It’s an area where visionary sculpture Jeremy Mayer excels. He carefully pulls apart disused typewriters, transforming them into cyborgs, animals and human figures. You can hardly believe that those large, cumbersome and clunky machines, could be morphed into something so complex and delicate. Below is a TED talk where he talks extensively about his passion and its origins.
