Well, now that's being turned into a national art project, with the public playing a direct role into decigning its legacy. Six artists and creative teams have been shortlisted to transform the preserved wood into a major public artwork, with the final piece expected to be completed by twenty twenty eight. The tree, which stood beside Hadrian's Wallen, was one of the most photographed in the UK, had a lot of significance from many people. Annie Riley from the National Trust said, over the past two years, we've heard extraordinary stories about what the Sycamore Gap tree mented people, from moments of celebration of milestones to quiet memories of loss, connection and reflection. It became more than a tree. It became part of the emotional landscape of the nation. The wood has been stored and seasoned for twenty eight months and is now ready to be used in the final artwork.

A red fox pulled off an international journey worthy of a movie. The Red Fire stowed away in a cargo ship and traveled thirty four hundred miles across the Atlantic from Southampton, England, to New York City.

Kind of interesting. When Detroit's robo War took place in the back of a church in a part of town dotted with industrial lots and fast food stores, performers dressed as giant robots.

Whart says Detroit has more robots than any other place in America. He does point out that the Robo War and the Church are two separate enterprises. Robo War also features real robots, some robot dogs, and some smaller humanoid robots that dance had posed for pictures. At one point during the show, there's a robot competing in a dance off against a human at the live event. In the human verse robot to dance off. Most people are rooting for the human and in Sydney, some warehouse workers got a surprise they noticed a large lace monitor lizard sleeping between palettes of bar fridges. The lizard apparently made itself comfortable inside the warehouse.

He wrote, this big unit had been spotted a few times now and got the order to move on today. So if you're a lizard, maybe don't nap between commercial refrigeration equipment palettes. So you're five new story short today. I have an awesome day
