× Little-known material Erionite found to cause a rare and lethal form of cancer, Mesothelioma. I'd never heard of this mineral before so this is fascinating. And a little scary.

× Photo gallery of Jeju Love Land, an erotic sculpture park in South Korea. More images at this flickr feed.

× 10 stubborn food myths that won't die, debunked by science.

× The best and worst celebrity wax figures at Madame Tussauds. Some are uncannily real. That Helen Mirren! Its hard to tell which is the real one. Some are super terrible. Its a wonder they even got ok-ed for display. And because they are hilarious bad: here's more terrible celebrity wax figures.

× Street Fighter II painting on a fingernail. Wow!

× Photographer captures images of a lioness rescuing her cub after it fell down a ravine. Such tense and touching photos.

× Recipe: Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookie n’ Oreo Fudge Brownies

× Lair of ancient 'Kraken' sea monster possibly discovered.

× A reader asks Lifehacker what foods don't need to be refrigerated and they respond with examples plus more. Like, what can be refrigerated although you don't have to, and what food items should always be refrigerated.

× A bit of info from Jezebel on why there are bumps on areolae. Thought this was important to link to since I know some women aren't aware that these bumps are completely normal.

× Tips from Lifehacker on how to keep your computer secure at the office.

× Call goes out for "penguin jumpers" to help out the penguins caught in an oil spill off the east coast of New Zealand and knitters around the world come to the rescue. They now have more than enough, although donations are still being encouraged for the future.

× 1001 uses for distilled white vinegar. So many uses! It's definitely going to be my go-to product for cleaning. I hate using chemical household cleaners (and apparently even cleaning products like Green Works aren't so eco-friendly) , so knowing that I can simply use vinegar (combined with baking soda at times) to clean around the house makes me excited.

I think its time for another round of "Things Online That Have Caught My Eye"--mainly from Poketo and nervoussystem since I'm being lazy.

RELATED: Poketo's limited time collection available at Target. I think I might go back and pick up one of the umbrellas since I like the designs. Plus, my current duck umbrella is kinda bent and it looks awkward when I use it. :(

× Kotaku calls these iPad mods 'bizarre', I call them awesome. I like the Macintosh Classic one a ridiculous amount.

× An Arashi-themed textbook wuuutttttt. Apparently it aims to "teach children about the beauty of Japan and Japanese culture, and to encourage them to visit different parts of Japan". The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism has already been overwhelmed by fans calling in to request the textbook.

× Princess Peach portrait created from over a thousand plastic bottle caps.

× Rainbow Roses are real, and really amazing. I found this via mklutz, and I stared at the pictures forever.

× This tutorial shows how to re-create the skull cut-out from Pleasure Principle sweaters onto your own clothing. Very cool.

× Pink Tentacle posts pictures from Good Design Expo 2010 held in Tokyo--I die and go to design heaven. ♥

× How about a Super Mario picnic. Sorry Mario, your picnic is in another park.

× Eveything you wanted to know about Fashion Week, but were afraid to ask, a sort of primer from Jezebel.
