Zander Olsen walked through the countryside of Wales, Surrey, and Hampshire and wrapped fabric around trees. He arranged the heights just right so that when they were photographed from a certain angle, they traced the horizon or blocked out distant mountains. The results look like holes in reality.

My obsession with throat singing continues. Today, let's take a look at Inuit Throat Singing, which is different from the overtone singing we've featured on Neatorama before.

Apparently, there's no overtone in the Inuit Throat Singing, though in the past singers used to resonate each other's notes by singing close to each other's mouths. Still, the singing method is unusual.

Long, long ago, in a galaxy far, far away, The Piano Guys brought us Cello Wars. Steven Sharp Nelson plays several of the various themes from the Star Wars films on two cellos with light sabers. Then Darth Vader and Chewbacca dance. I think you’ll enjoy it. -Thanks, Will Findlay!

It's certainly inconvenient if your password is hacked and your identity stolen. But if the CIA's password is hacked, it may mean a death sentence for its covert operatives.

Recently, there was a huge setback for the CIA when its spies in Iran and Lebanon were caught because their password was cracked. What was that password? PIZZA:

In Beirut, two Hezbollah double agents pretended to go to work for the CIA. Hezbollah then learned of the restaurant where multiple CIA officers were meeting with several agents, according to the four current and former officials briefed on the case. The CIA used the codeword "PIZZA" when discussing where to meet with the agents, according to U.S. officials. Two former officials describe the location as a Beirut Pizza Hut. A current US official denied that CIA officers met their agents at Pizza Hut.

From there, Hezbollah's internal security arm identified at least a dozen informants, and the identities of several CIA case officers.

Paul Celantano can make a stringed instrument in any shape, even a cupcake. This ukulele with the Autobot logo transformers into…well, nothing. Still, I hope that he posts a video of himself playing the Transformers theme on it!

Well, of course! Who would go outside without one?

Artificial replicas of pregnant women’s abdomens, made of silica gel, have become hot sellers on the online shopping market, the China News.com reported on Monday.

Looking like the belly of a genuine pregnant woman, the imitations have variously been described as having “flesh color” and “human skin texture,” and as “highly comfortable,” by online shop owners.

There are currently three types of fake bellies being sold, each of which approximates a different period of pregnancy, corresponding to the second and latter trimesters and the final month.

Remember: don’t dress for the job that you have. Dress for the job that you want to have.

The driver does it on a busy street, unlike the controlled circumstances of the current the Guinness World Record holder. He lightly bumps the car in the rear many times, but I’ve been told that in some cities the “love tap” is considered socially acceptable.

My Rocket City Redneck
Laurel Leader Call
By Tracy Williams, columnist AP LAUREL — It may be hard for some to believe that you can be both a genius and a redneck. For me, I have lived with the proof for years. By day my husband is a NASA engineer and on weekends he is a camouflaged huntsman, ...
