Yea, so it still begs the question..... "How'd that work out for them?"

Obama gave minor support to the Libya uprising and is taking full credit for it in his run for re-election and letting the Syrian people get slaughtered.... MF should own up to his failures.

This tree is apparently in Happy Valley, Hong Kong. Can't find much more information on it than that. You can see the younger trees in the background, and the tiny amount of open dirt they let each tree have. When you plant a tree, it's a good idea to be aware of what kind of tree you are planting, and if it will fit in the spot you have chosen once it matures. But I think this is really cool and am glad this one grew this way.

But I did find a picture of this tree or a very similar one where they have removed the brick pavers and the roots are exposed.

That's cool as hell.

That's pretty good.

I always wondered at the folks who put such effort into good graffiti art. When that construction site is gone in 6 months or a year, that art will be gone too. Assuming it doesn't get painted over before then.

A Bryde's Whale. Apparently, it's quite rare to photograph a breaching Bryde's Whale.

Or, maybe, if you're German, a Bryde-al Vhale.

Hahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaa!! I kill me sometimes...

Zen? you obviously haven't seen me naked.

Gravdigr 07-08-2012 01:50 PM

What? Whales don't have foreskin?

xoxoxoBruce 07-08-2012 04:22 PM

Not the Jewish ones.

Gravdigr 07-08-2012 04:56 PM

Jewish whales...pff...their yarmulkes would be huuuge.

And cover the blowhole.

Rhianne 07-08-2012 05:27 PM

That is one stupid-looking fish.

Gravdigr 07-08-2012 05:53 PM

Fish?

Mammal!

Explanation: Engraved in rock, these ancient petroglyphs are abundant in the Teimareh valley, located in the Zagros Mountains of central Iran. They likely tell a tale of hunters and animals found in the middle eastern valley 6,000 years ago or more, etched by artists in a prehistoric age. In the night sky above are star trails etched by the rotation of planet Earth during the long composite exposure made with a modern digital camera. On the left, the center of the star trail arcs is the North Celestial Pole (NCP), the extension of Earth's axis into space, with Polaris, the North Star, leaving the bright, short, stubby trail closest to the NCP. But when these petroglyphs were carved, Polaris would have made a long arc through the night. Since the Earth's rotation axis precesses like a wobbling top, 6,000 years ago the NCP was near the border of the constellations Draco and Ursa Major, some 30 degrees from its current location in planet Earth's sky.
