Perfect Pandas » Blog Archive » Panda Bread Ok, so I’ve seen a lot of amazingly cute panda things, but this literally made me giddy when I saw it. I’ve never seen anything like it and I really want to try out the recipe. The original recipe is from an Asian website called Taro Taro (which features a photo gallery of user submitted panda bread!), luckily for those of us who can’t read the site, wlteef.blogspot.com was kind enough to post a translation. The recipe is after the cut! Panda Bread: Ingredients: 600g loaf (206 x 108 x100h) 230g bread flour 70g cake flour 30g sugar milk + 1 yolk = 210g (I used skim milk) 4.5g salt 18g unsalted butter (I used 20g) 4g yeast 8g green tea powder dissolved in 10g boiling hot water 8g cocoa powder dissolved in 8g boiling water Method: 1.

A male Francois' langur named Keo-co was born Jan. 30 and ventured into an outdoor enclosure for the first time on Wednesday. Keo-co's older sister, Elke, was born in 2009 and was the first offspring for mother Saigon. Unfortunately, Saigon didn't immediately take to motherhood and zoo staff elected to raise Elke themselves in order to ensure that she was healthy and well cared for. (Elke is now fully grown and still lives at Taronga, but she occupies a different enclosure than Saigon.) This time around, Saigon seems to have gotten the hang of parenting and the zoo reports that Keo-co is extremely bonded to her. Francois' langur monkeys are native to parts of Vietnam and China. See more photos and a video of Keo-co after the jump! -- Lindsay Barnett
so mature Linda Vista Revisited: East LA’s Abandoned Hospital Last year, while scouting for a short film that never came to fruition, some friends and I talked our way inside an empty, run-down hospital in Boyle Heights. The short was supposed to take place in a hospital, but after a few minutes wandering the halls of Linda Vista — alone and decidedly creeped-out — it became obvious that there was no way the place would work. It had been closed for twenty years, and it showed: there was dirt caked in layers on walls and mysteriously wet floors; windows were broken and doors hung off their hinges; ceiling tiles had fallen victim to moisture and gravity, and rats had chewed through the walls. We didn’t have the money to make Linda Vista look like anything more than a horror movie — a few of which had actually been shot there over the years. I was only inside for 45 minutes or so, running through the place snapping photos on the fly with a crappy point-and-shoot. Click on photos to see larger sizes. Someone left a safety razor behind. Fancy a bath?
Stefano Unterthiner Photography : Animals Face to Face | COLT + RANE Colt + Rane Stefano Unterthiner Photography : Animals Face to Face Between the Seconds With the click of a shutter sometimes we become privy to the strange world that occurs between the seconds. Dormouse blissfully unaware he was saved from the jaws of death By Daily Mail Reporter Updated: 15:51 GMT, 16 March 2010 A hibernating dormouse curls up in the palm of a hand, blissfully unaware he has just been rescued from almost certain death in sub-zero temperatures. The tiny animal can only be held for just a few seconds because its carer's warming touch would wake it prematurely. Dormouse expert Dave Williams saved the three-inch creature from a back garden where he was left exposed to frost, wind and rain. Nap time: The hibernating dormouse curls up in the palm of a hand after being rescued from sub-zero temperatures in a back garden A gardener accidently raked its woven grass nest from under a box hedge he had trimmed near Leatherhead, Surrey. It may have died if left exposed to freezing temperatures or struggled to find the seeds, nuts and berries it eats if woken early. Mr Williams, from Surrey Wildlife Trust, examined the nest and found the mouse was healthy and sleeping inside. It is nocturnal and a protected species.
Greatest Optical Illusions Pictures. OK, this one really belongs in the Skytopia 3D stereoscopic gallery, but I just couldn't resist. If you can cross your eyes, so that both pictures slide 'into' each other - to form a third, 3D image between them, the effect you will see is truly stunning! Try focusing on something in between you and the monitor to help see the illusion. If you can't manage to see this cross eyed version below, then try the parallel version here.
