the Ants go in a line!

I see the ants go in a line and when i studied it well, i came to see that they stop and communicate in their language and then they carry on. They do the same for all the ants they meet going in the opposite direction. I think they are hellowing each other..haha.. I have noticed this all the time. 

Every spring we get ants in our driveway which eventually come into our house.  Here are ten things you didn’t know about ants:

1. Intelligence - Ants are smarter than you think.  They are the animal with the largest brain (250,000 cells) in proportion to their body size,

2. Agriculture - Ants began farming 50 million years ago.  They use horticultural techniques like spreading manure to enhance the growth of their crops.

3. Warfare -  Ants are the greatest insect killers on earth, even killing their own kind.

4. Numbers -  One tenth of the world’s animal tissue is composed of ants.  The biomass of ants is equivalent to the biomass of people.

5. Supercolonies -  Their colonies stretch for hundreds of miles and reach 20 feet deep.  They contain millions of nests.

6. Lifespan - Workers live only 45 to 60 days.  However, the queen ant can live up to 20 years.  The colony dies within months of the queen’s death.

7. Carnivores -  Africa and Asia have Driver Ants.  A colony can be composed of up to 20 million of them.  They kill insects and spiders on their own.  However, as an army, they can kill lizards, snakes and even chickens.  They can attack and kill a tethered horse and have even been used as a form of execution for enemy soldiers.

8. Ranchers – Ants farm, gather, hunt and raise other insects.  For example, honey ants feed off the secretion of aphids. They protect aphids, destroying their predators’ eggs (ex. Ladybugs).

9. Slavery – Ants raid nests of other ants and steal their pupae.  The eggs hatch and they use the new ants as slaves (ex. The Amazon ants raid the Formica ant colonies.)

10. Castes – The queen is the founder of the colony; she produces other ants.  The males inseminate the virgin queen.  The workers forage, care for the brood, repair and defend the nest and care for the queen.

    11.  Bonus:  Power – Ants can lift anywhere from 20 to 40 times their bodyweight. 

What do you think they are doing when they are stopping while on a way in a line? 

have you noticed ants this way?

Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.

Feud: Piers Morgan vs. Kelsey Grammer

Piers Morgan has been on a major Twitter rant against Kelsey Grammer.

The Boss star was about to go on Morgan's CNN talk show Wednesday night but decided at the last minute not to appear. "Kelsey Grammer was supposed to be on my show now but ran out of the building. Strange," Morgan tweeted. He then offered an explanation: "So, Kelsey Grammer saw a photo of his ex-wife Camille (Grammer) in the open to our show and legged it. Extraordinary. Never had this happen before." "Piers needs to take responsibility for what he did to Kelsey," Grammer's rep told The Hollywood Reporter, confirming the statement to Lifeline Live. "It's called accountability." He didn't specifically mention for what Morgan should be held accountable. Grammer had a bitter split from wife Camille after 13 years of marriage. He told Oprah last month that so much has come between them that it is "impossible" for them even "to pretend to be civil." Meanwhile, Morgan has continued to tweet about the no-show.

No need to wait for Peter Jackson and his movie The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey to arrive on Dec. 14: Middle-earth mania has already hit bookstores. Friday marks the 75th anniversary of the publication of J.R.R. Tolkien's immortal tale about the great adventure of furry-footed Bilbo Baggins.

The prelude to The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Hobbit has been translated in to more than 50 languages and has sold 100 million copies worldwide.

Eastwood, Timberlake bond over baseball and golf

Justin Timberlake didn't leave anything to chance when pursuing the part of Johnny "The Flame" Flanagan alongside Clint Eastwood in Trouble with the Curve.

Clint Eastwood and Justin Timberlake co-star in the baseball-themed 'Trouble With the Curve.'
After all, the role of the former ball player with radio-booth aspirations seemed tailor-made for The Social Network star's on-screen energy.

Timberlake even shot an audition tape for director and longtime Eastwood producing partner Robert Lorenz to show the acting legend."I saw the tape, he was terrific," says Eastwood, 82.But sitting with his co-star at Beverly Hills' Culina restaurant, wearing a jacket over a casual golf shirt, Eastwood admits there were other factors that made him excited about bringing Timberlake on board -- the guy is one heck of a golfer."If (Timberlake) had been a lousy player it would have been, 'He can't play the role.' " Eastwood says with a smile, causing Timberlake to bust out into laughter."He might be great on the tape, but what's his handicap?" Timberlake, 31, retorts.EMPTY-CHAIR SPEECH: Eastwood doesn't like 'making fun' of Obama Eastwood -- cautious in the wake of his "empty chair" speech which continues to reverberate nationally as Curve opens Friday -- points out that he is only joking about the mandatory golf skills.

America's Got Talent's results show moved four wild card acts into the semifinals.

"It's gonna be intense," said host Nick Cannon. He introduced judges Howie Mandel, Sharon Osbourne (who gave her signature heart gesture with her hands) and Howard Stern (who tried to make a more sweeping heart gesture).

"We're going to have to work on that," Nick told him.

First group on stage: Sebastien, Bandbaz Brothers and Ben Blaque. Advancing: Sebastien "El Charro De Oro." Said the mariachi kid, "It feels real good to let America know that even though I'm a small package like Jackie Evancho, I'm able to have a big voice like she does."
