Dutch artist Helmut Smits art installations are usually controversial, but ‘Photo Tip’ definitely pushes takes it to the next level. ‘Photo Tip’ is a new art installation that lets people take a photo in front of a terrorist hostage-taker backdrop.
Would it be in bad taste to do this as a Christmas card? Jusk asking.

These pictures are from the book ‘Microcosmos,’ by Brandon Broll of London. This book includes many scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of insects, human body parts and household items. These are amazing images of what is too small to see with the naked eye. Images are from 20X to more than 22 million X magnification.

Guerilla knitting (a.k.a., yarn bombing) involves sneaking into public spaces and changing the look of an area by slipping colorful embroidery and yarn stitches on things in the environment. For instance, a group of knitting ninjas will invade a place and leave tight-fitting cardigans on all of the trees, streetlamps and bus stops in an area. One artist has even taken to filling up Parisian potholes in the dead of night with her knitting. So, if you see a guy dressed all in black on the street at night holding a pair of knitting needles, you’re probably safe. (via MentalFloss)

On 6th August 1945, a B29 bomber dropped an atom bomb on Hiroshima.
It has been estimated that over the years around 200,000 people have died as a result of this bomb being dropped.
Hmm, I wonder how we could celebrate this amazing use of military might? Wait, I know! Cake!
U.S. Navy Vice Admiral William H. P. Blandy, his wife, and Rear Admiral Frank J. Lowry cut a cake made in the shape of a mushroom cloud at a reception for Operation Crossroads, November 6, 1946.

One day in 1993, Horace Burgess, a minister in Crossville, TN, received a message from God that if he built Him a treehouse, he would never run out of materials.
So Burgess started building a treehouse out of salvaged wood, and after twenty years, it stands ten stories tall. The treehouse is built around seven trees that act as supports. Burgess worked on it as he found materials, stopping and starting as supplies or time allowed. All in, he has spent about $12,000 on it.
