Unfortunately not the assassin spider (thing on the left)
You can see the abdomen and thorax at the bottom of the picture, and a really long neck, with one of the mandibles resting against it, the other impaling a... thing.
At least that's my understanding of it.

If what they've said is true (and I see no reason to quarrel with it)
then it is likely that our continued manipulation of the environment might put increased pressure on other species to survive, thereby triggering further evolution among them than might otherwise be the case. (if that makes any sense)
With all the deforestation and whatnot, animals, even as we speak, are evolving; maybe not physically but they are adapting to their ever-changing habitat.
I can see animals like pandas, who rely on us, becoming more... domesticated?

related to that
I'd like to see an image challenge re: animals/creatures evolving physically and/or behaviorally to compete in the human world. I suggested it but it didn't make the grade.

People who kill spiders invariably also complain about the various insects running unchecked about their homes.

I enjoy them all, as long as they don't crawl on me.
Flies -- I will try and usually succeed in opening the door to let them back out.
Ants are very helpful when my son comes to visit for the weekend. They carry off the crumbs and what-not that have fallen in those hard to reach areas.
Fortunately, I live in a clean multi-dwelling now, and have not had problems with anything in the roach family

Seriously though, What the fuck is wrong with people? The news is rapidly shifting towards RIP Amy Winehouse, when there's 100+ dead Norwegians who should be the focus of attention (amongst other non-cult-of-celebrity news stories that should be covered)... I'm with Prodigy's comment on this one... She got what she wanted...
As to pic? Top Stuff Sir! More please!

However, the issue here is focus in the media, whilst each event in its own way is tragic, how can the death of a woman, who whilst she tried to seek help, did frequently refer to wanting to die like her idols, be compared to the unexpected and involuntary deaths of the kids and people in Norway?
Winehouse's Death was inevitable, she got what she expected. The people in Norway were just going about their daily business with no expectation of being shot and/or blown up!
Dead Celebrities (Unless they've done a great deal, for many years, to help the public cause) should be a news footnote, not the main focus when there are more important developments in the world to focus on...

Yep!
clx... (am dreading the musical tributes that will surely come)
I know some great artists out there do or did drugs (for example, Kurt Cobain), but they didn't make it their defining characteristic, like the select few.
And being critical here, I didn't really like Winehouse's music that much, but I guess that's just me. But seeing it from a universal standpoint, I agree that she did have a good voice when she felt like actually making music.

Of course I used a US style outlet... not sure what the Euro ones look like anymore, but I remember getting a good shock out of one in France 40 years ago.
The effect still lingers.. Ah oui oui oui.

Euro ones are sort of round pins in a similar arrangement to US ones.
Something I found out the hard way when, in a moment of weakness, I brought Euro ones to NY with me.
