Those photos were shot by the photographer Marco Di Lauro. He covered in Afghanistan the trip of Angelina Jolie as UNHCR goodwill ambassador (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees).
Take a look at his good work inside the post.
What are they looking for there? Drugs, maybe?
It is funny, every time you look at other people who smile, it makes you smile too.
So, let’s smile (especially when Friday is almost here ;))

It may seem that this BMW needs a real maintenance, but it’s not that.
The Ga-Adangbe are an ethnic group in the West African nation of Ghana.
The Ga people are renowned worldwide for their funeral celebrations and processions. The Ga believe that when someone dies, they move to another life. Therefore, special coffins are often crafted by highly skilled carpenters. The coffins can be anything wanted by relatives of the deceased from a pencil to any animal such as an elephant. Coffins are usually crafted to reflect an essence of the deceased, in forms such as a character trait, an occupation, or a symbol of one's standing in the community. For example, a taxicab driver is most likely to be buried in a coffin shaped as a car. These coffins are usually very expensive, as their nature means that skilled carpenters take longer to produce them compared to conventional coffins.
Take a look inside the post at those unusual coffins.
That's how photographers were having fun before the computer era ;)
There’s a very unusual thing in one Russian city Rostov-on-Don - mosaics in the pedestrian underpasses.
It looks great and there is another amazing feature - the size of mosaics, many of them have a length of up to ten meters. Take a look.

Have you ever seen such a big sum in one place? No? Here it is.
Every one knows that drug traffickers have the most luxurious and the most expensive houses in the world with exotic private zoos etc..
One of the Mexican drug leaders, native of China who gained Mexican citizenship, had all this money at his house. He fled before the police came into his house in one of Mexico City’s wealthiest neighborhoods and found this pile of money that was hidden inside walls, suitcases and closets.
All the money came from the profits of methamphetamines sold in the United States.
It was estimated that major narco-traffickers were now US $205 million poorer.
It happened in Moscow. That day, it was 8.25 am when the last tram passed on that line ))
If you wonder why, go and see the rest of the post after the jump.
It is known that during the financial crisis, volumes of construction works fall heavily, the demand for construction materials reduces twice, including the demand for bricks.
Therefore, brick factories in Russia came up with unconventional moves to stay afloat.
One of them is in front of your eyes. Sexy girls pose with... bricks.
Only in Russia as they say ;)))
Simple, original and cool!
Early in the morning, you go to catch your train, then you see ‘this’ and your mood is immediately improved even though there’s a whole working day ahead :)) Yes, I would laugh hard if I saw this.
To each their own, but as for me, this is not for men...
Stunning portraits of centenarians and supercentenarians (people who are 110 years old and older) who have seen a lot of things in their life.
Many of them managed to live in three centuries, as it is said “the face of age”.
Enjoy!

And he’s really happy :))
More pics after the jump.
Here’s a good example of culture differences. In Japan, it is something common to have such capsule hotels. It is made for businessmen in the first place, who don’t have time to go home and start working very early. Or for people who didn’t catch the last train. Their well developed train system shuts down around midnight.
So, here you go, little boxes where you can only be in a lying position. There’s even a small TV set at your feet.
