Art multi-tasker: In Rotterdam, Netherlands, Rajacenna van Dam is turning heads by creating hyper-realistic portraits using all four of her limbs at once. Mastering a skill she developed to stay productive, she simultaneously draws intricate works with her hands and feet, completing up to six pieces at a time. Her inspirations often come from well-known public figures, from pop stars to royalty. Creating each work of art is a meticulous process, sometimes requiring over 40 hours to perfect. She attributes her ability to an unusually connected brain, enabling her to seamlessly switch focus between pieces. This technical artistry transforms multitasking into a captivating spectacle. Who says masterpieces need just one pair of hands?

Oil survivor: In the La Brea Tar Pits near Los Angeles, California (U.S.), the petroleum fly has adapted to thrive in a place that traps and kills countless other creatures. These tiny flies are the only species to develop in toxic petroleum, calling this natural asphalt home. The larvae feed on trapped insects and arthropods, all while consuming petroleum without harm. Their translucent bodies reveal ingested oil passing harmlessly through. Even extreme conditions, like high temperatures or chemical exposure, fail to faze them. The asphalt doubles as a moisturizer, protecting their bodies from drying out in the sun. These resilient insects prove that life can thrive in the most unexpected places.

Quake resilience: In earthquake-prone Japan, skyscrapers are engineered to move with the earth, making them exceptionally safe. Built along the Pacific Ring of Fire, these high-rises withstand frequent quakes without sustaining damage or collapsing. During rare, extreme events like the 2011 Tohoku Earthquake, their design prioritizes protecting lives over structural perfection. Flexible engineering allows the buildings to sway rather than resist, minimizing the risk of catastrophe. The striking skyscrapers of Tokyo and Osaka may seem immovable, but their hidden adaptability is their ability not just to stand firm, but to be flexible when necessary.

Storm bringer: Tlaloc, an influential deity in Mesoamerican mythology, embodies the dual power of water. As the Aztec god of rain, lakes, fertility, and agriculture, he controlled life-sustaining rains while wielding deadly thunder and hail when angered. Farmers revered him for nourishing crops, and his domain extended to overseeing the Third Sun, a water-dominated world in Aztec cosmology. Tlaloc’s origins predate the Aztecs; earlier cultures like the Maya and Zapotec worshipped Chaac and Cocijo, their versions of him. His image, often depicted with goggle eyes, fanged teeth, and vivid symbolism, reflected water’s vital yet unpredictable role in survival.
Pricey rice: Kinmemai Premium, crafted by Japan’s Toyo Rice Corporation, is the world’s most expensive rice, priced at ¥11,304 (JPY) per kilogram. Holding a Guinness World Record, this rice features hand-selected grains from top varieties, carefully flavour-aged for six months, creating a rich taste and a jewel-like appearance. Known for its superior nutritional profile, this rice contains six times the immune-boosting lipopolysaccharides of regular rice, along with more fibre and vitamins. Its unique polishing process removes only the waxy layer, making it rinse-free and easy to prepare. Kinmemai Premium proves that something as simple as rice can be a delicacy.

Dynamic façade: The Al Bahar Towers in Abu Dhabi, U.A.E., feature a responsive shading system inspired by Islamic mashrabiya screens. Controlled by computers, hexagonal panels adjust to the sun’s position, reducing heat and glare while improving energy efficiency. The screens, positioned outside the buildings, allow for naturally tinted glass that enhances lighting and views while lowering air conditioning needs. Combining cultural heritage with advanced engineering, this design earned the towers an innovation award for sustainability. The façade shows how smart architecture blends tradition and technology to create beauty and function, even in harsh desert environments.

Moss makeover: A Dutch startup company is using everyday moss to transform what is often dull-looking concrete into eco-friendly expanses of green with unique visual appeal. The company uses a “bioreceptive” concrete that encourages moss to thrive without damaging the walls or support beams of buildings, bridges, and other structures. Moss not only absorbs CO2 and purifies air and water, it also provides habitat for wildlife, shields surfaces from weather damage, requires minimal upkeep, and even discourages graffiti. Now refining its innovation by using recycled materials, the company is collaborating to “green-up” unique projects like wind turbine bases. Moss is the star of this simple solution that blends beauty and sustainability.

Did you acknowledge last week that you may need to deal with an old issue in your relationship? How are things going now? What might you need to do next? Lucky numbers: 11, 18, 19, 20, 22, 42.

The Taurus-born  usually value stability. Midweek you may get an opportunity to shake things up. You might at least consider it, rather than automatically rejecting it. Lucky numbers: 1, 18, 23, 27, 30, 42.
For the next few weeks, you may feel that you are taking one step forward and two steps backward. Wait it out. The situation might return to normal soon. Lucky numbers: 8, 18, 22, 32, 43, 46.
Your ability to communicate with others may run into obstacles for the next few weeks. Be aware of this and minimize interactions, where you can, until this passes. Lucky numbers: 6, 8, 10, 21, 38, 42.
At the beginning of the week, your Leo energy may naturally attract others to you. So, if you need assistance, ask for it. But remember to be fair in your request. Lucky numbers: 9, 13, 17, 25, 29, 47.

This may be a good week to bring projects to completion and gain the results. Conversely, if there are ideas that are no longer viable, they should be pruned out. Lucky numbers: 5, 6, 8, 14, 20, 21.

Your tact and diplomacy may be highlighted at midweek. If others ask you to help bring a matter to a conclusion, you might want to seriously consider doing so. Lucky numbers: 12, 14, 29, 31, 38, 42.
What do you need to let go of? The energy this week encourages you to release what no longer serves you. Remember the phrase, “When one door closes, another opens.” Lucky numbers: 4, 6, 14, 17, 23, 27.
For the next few weeks, be careful in what you say, in order to avoid accidentally putting your foot in your mouth. Showing restraint now could benefit you later. Lucky numbers: 14, 17, 20, 24, 31, 40.
Midweek may be a good time to contemplate what is working in your life and what is not. What might you need to begin and what do you think you need to end? Lucky numbers: 3, 5, 16, 22, 44, 45.

Aquarians often focus on humanitarian causes, but have trouble connecting with individuals. This week may offer a chance to show a more heart-centred approach. Lucky numbers: 7, 13, 36, 41, 44, 46.
Completing a task may require a lot of hard work from you at midweek. While this may be frustrating now, the eventual outcome could be well worth the effort. Lucky numbers: 2, 6, 7, 10, 32, 35.

Single-handed: Early mechanical clocks used just one hand to tell time. For centuries, tower clocks showed only the hour or quarter-hour, as daily life moved at a slower pace, and this simple design avoided confusion from extra hands.

Futon roll: Japanese police have a unique approach to handling aggression. Instead of force, officers often wrap unruly individuals in large futons, rolling them up like a burrito to safely transport them to the station for a cooldown. 

Surprise comeback: After removal, tonsils can partially grow back if a bit of tissue remains behind. This leftover tissue has the potential to regenerate, although not necessarily to their original size.
