The Golden Sahara Show Car - so over the top, it had the lighted Goodyear tires.

One of the strangest looking fish in the ocean; Mola Mola AKA Ocean Sunfish. They can weigh up to 2 tons. Females of the species can produce more eggs than any other known vertebrate, up to 300,000,000 at a time.

I had the pleasure of swimming with one off the coast of Long Island. We were gathered on the back deck of the dive boat in-between dives when someone yelled "SHARK!" We all turned around and there was a fin cutting the water. But it wasn't stiff like a shark fin. It was flabby. The captain came out and told us to get our snorkels, masks and fins on which we did and jumped into the ocean. There right in front of us was an Ocean Sunfish - a BIG one. Some of the guys swam up and touched it. It didn't care at all. We were like fleas on the back of a dog to it.

See that gold star in the upper right hand corner . . . it means the DL is a REAL ID and will be accepted at airports to board a plane. If your DL doesn't have that star - you can't use it as ID to board a plane. REAL ID restrictions begin October 1, 2020.

On Wednesday, Burger King posted a video of a Whopper decomposing and growing moldy on YouTube as part of an ad campaign.

The campaign is meant to draw attention to the chain's move away from preservatives and artificial flavors, which many fast-food chains have long been criticized for.

The move is emblematic of a larger trend in the fast-food industry towards more "natural" and socially conscious foods.

Pinsa certainly looks a lot like pizza you're used to as it's dough topped with sauce and cheese and all sorts of delicious toppings. The first key difference is it's pressed down with the fingers versus being rolled out, so it's not going to look perfectly round and may include a few more lumps and bumps. It's rustic!

Eucalyptus deglupta trees, otherwise known as rainbow eucalyptus trees or rainbow gum trees, are known around the world for their bright, neon-striped bark.

The rainbow effect is created as the bark peels off throughout each season, revealing the fresh, bright-green bark below.

As each layer of bark matures, it turns shades of blue, purple, orange, and red.

Though rainbow eucalyptus trees are native to the Philippines, Indonesia, and Papua New Guinea, they can also be found in the US.

In addition to being a dramatic accent in a room, rubber plants can remove airborne toxins and fight tropical diseases and parasites. Studies have proven the plant's ability to remove formaldehyde from the air, which is found in cleaning supplies and furniture. VanZile just advises wiping the leaves with a moist paper towel every so often to keep their pores open for optimal air purification.
