Lifeguard towers can be found the world over. Yet not many places can boast as many unique examples of this form of architecture as those along the eight and a half mile stretch of Miami Beach. All told there are twenty five towers guarding those who use the beach. At once functional and decorative, they contribute beautifully to the overall aesthetic of this Floridian resort city.

Evarcha culicivora is a tiny spider that lives around Lake Victoria in East Africa, and it has a taste for blood. Don’t worry about one biting you like Dracula on eight legs, though. The spider doesn’t have the piercing mouthparts to get through your skin and into your veins. Instead, it goes about vampirism in a more roundabout way.

In 1870, Ma, Pa, Mary, and Laura Ingalls left their home in southeast Kansas, where they had lived for about a year, and headed back to Wisconsin. Their Kansas home was later the basis for Laura's book The Little House on the Prairie. That same year, a group of new families moved into the area. They were Spiritualists, a religion that was totally foreign to the homesteaders already in the new state. Two of the families moved away within a year. The others kept to themselves, with the exception of the Benders.

Today we are going to see more vintage and modern examples of such mind-bending balance, done for the camera (without any computer and special effects)
