Hummingbirds are the only birds that can fly backward. They weigh less than a nickel on average. Their legs are only meant for perching, so they can neither hop nor walk. Hummingbirds are one of the hungriest creatures on the planet. They can consume up to twice their body weight in nectar. They are the smallest birds that migrate. But unlike most birds, they don't go in a flock. They're lone rangers who can migrate up to 500 miles alone at a time.

Image shows the new baby by Elon Musk and Grimes who left the world dumbfounded when they announced the name of their newborn son: X Æ A-12 Musk. While Grimes offered fans an explanation about the meaning of the name, the pronunciation — and legality — of X Æ A-12 remains questionable.

Charles Brady King. King and Ford were friends and collaborators, and Ford followed on a bicycle as King drove the very first car ever seen on the streets of Motor City. On March 6, 1896, King left his machine shop at 112 St. Antoine and sputtered up the street in a wagon with a high seat, rudder-like steering lever and a long brake lever on the side. It was powered by a 4-cylinder gasoline engine, the first of the “block” type motors.

These beautiful bookends are the culmination of many attempts and much effort by Japanese artist Monde to realize his vision. His inspiration came from Tokyo, thinking that it would be interesting to depict its alleyways in the gaps between the books themselves. Depending on which diorama you are lucky enough to look into, you will find an arrangement of plants and lights made from different materials, which actually create the illusion of peering down a dimly lit Japanese alleyway.
