T.S. Eliot – Les Hommes creux (The Hollow Men, 1925 Ce poème célèbre a notamment servi de référence dans des films comme "Apocalypse Now" où Kurtz (Marlon Brando) lit à voix haute The Hollow Men de T.S Eliot ou plus récemment dans le film "Control" de Anton Corbijn consacrée à la vie du chanteur de Joy Division, où Ian Curtis écrit une lettre à sa femme en citant ce poème. Nous sommes les hommes creux Les hommes empaillés Cherchant appui ensemble La caboche pleine de bourre. Hélas ! Silhouette sans forme, ombre décolorée, Geste sans mouvement, force paralysée ; Ceux qui s’en furent Le regard droit, vers l’autre royaume de la mort Gardent mémoire de nous – s’ils en gardent – non pas Comme de violentes âmes perdues, mais seulement Comme d’hommes creux D’hommes empaillés. Que je ne sois pas plus proche Au royaume de rêve de la mort Qu’encore je porte Pareils francs déguisements: robe de rat, Peau de corbeau, bâtons en croix Dans un champ Me comportant selon le vent Pas plus proche - Pas cette rencontre finale Au royaume crépusculaire.

Ce qui ressemble à un sourire est un amoebastome, une sorte de suçoir grâce auquel elle engloutit les bactéries et parfois même ses propres congénères !

Cette amibe pénètre dans le nez des nageurs et remonte jusqu’à leur cerveau où elle dévore les neurones, il lui faut alors entre 1 et 5 jours pour provoquer migraines, fièvres et vomissements.

Twitter launches major redesign | Geek Gestalt Twitter rolled out a major redesign that revamps some of its biggest features and includes new apps for iOS and Android, in a bold attempt to make itself more relevant--not to mention more attractive to advertisers. The main idea behind the redesign is to fundamentally change how users will access their most important tweets and the most significant information they convey. For instance, Twitter has decided to link its service to the notion of "home," and to try to rebrand the hashtag--one of its users' most ingenious inventions--as the "discover" tool. At the same time, Twitter is launching its first branding pages in an attempt to steal some of Facebook's thunder with advertisers. With the moves today, Twitter is making it clear that it wants users' experiences to be the same, regardless of where they access "Home." That means that users should be able to see all the same information, via Home, on their computer or their mobile device--iPhone or Android.
A giant among moths Michael Marshall, environment reporter (Image: Sandesh Kadur/naturepl.com) ATLAS moths (Attacus atlas) are giants of the insect world. They are the largest moths known to exist, with a 25-centimetre wingspan. Photographer Sandesh Kadur spotted this beauty on a trip to document the biodiversity of the eastern Himalayas. He got out to take photos, and as he did so the moth went into a defensive posture, spreading its wings and leaning forward to make itself look as big as possible. As well as the moth's intimidating size, the striking patterns on its wings may also ward off predators. Kadur eventually decided that the moth wasn't safe sitting in the road, so he manoeuvred it to the side.
