Elizabeth Hickok depicts various landscapes of San Francisco using jello. This one above is the Bay Bridge.

"I make the landscapes by constructing scale models of the architectural elements which I use to make molds. I then cast the buildings in Jell-O. Similar to making a movie set, I add backdrops, which I often paint, and elements such as mountains or trees, and then I dramatically light the scenes from the back or underneath. The Jell-O sculptures quickly decay, leaving the photographs and video as the remains."

Sixteen-year old Michael Viscardi won first place in the Siemens Westinghouse Competition, the world’s most prestigious high school science competition, and a $100,000 college scholarship.

The homeschooled senior solved a century old math problem called Dirichlet problem (which is way too complicated to explain here).

Way to go, Michael! Link

Stephen Wulffraat discovered a new species of mammal in the island of Borneo, Indonesia.

According to the photographers, the animal is

"an enigmatic, red-furred creature with tiny ears and distinctive markings. The leaf that obscures its face makes it impossible to say if it has a pointed snout like a dog or fox, or a flat face like a cat. A second photo, from behind, shows it to have a long, bushy tail rather like a fox, and large hind legs. It is slightly larger than a domestic cat."
