Baby-faced Justin Bieber is pulling out the man card by sporting a Tom Selleck/Ron Burgundy/Borat-esque mustache. Although the porn star stache is getting mixed reviews, Whisker Wars reality stars Jack Passion and Bryan Nelson are loving that the Biebs is hopping on the facial hair bandwagon. “Mr. Bieber I say ‘Bravo!’ Now that he’s proven himself...Read more»...

From Mother Nature Network's Bryan Nelson:
Cockroaches aren't typically known for being cute, but a new species recently discovered by researcher Peter Vršanský and colleagues could change that. If viewed from atop and in the right lighting, the new species appears to mimic the look of a baby Ewok. That's right: a cockroach that looks like a baby Ewok. (I bet you never thought those two images would be linked.)

Interestingly enough, it turns out that this visual quirk isn't even the most distinctive thing about the cockroach's appearance. The creature is also bioluminescent, meaning that it produces its own source of light-- i.e., it glows in the dark. In fact, the species represents the only known case of mimicry by bioluminescence ever found in a land animal, according to mongabay.com.
In other words, it would...

Ok, I think we all can agree that M. Night Shyamalan's name is kind of mud right now. So much so that the film Devil was once being called M. Night Shyamalan's Devil, and now it's simply the one word. From all reports... and I do mean all reports, he colossally fucked up The Last Airbender, and despite its solid box office earnings, it's been a critical disaster of epic proportions. Seriously, The Last Airbender is getting a Gigli-like reception. That bad.
However, Shyamalan didn't direct Devil, he simply wrote the story. The screenplay was done by Bryan Nelson (Hard Candy), which is promising. It's co-directed by John Erick Dowdle (the unimpressive [Rec] remake, Quarantine) and his brother Drew (this is his first picture). And I have to give the trailer a few points. It's got a nice little "normal day until shit goes haywire" vibe to it. It's spooky but not excessively effects-laden.
