Yup, just one more day and we can relax over the weekend. The temps seem to be rising around the world a bit so maybe we can actually get outside and do something fun. In the meantime have a peek at these and watch the time tick down.

Derek Diedricksen isn’t just a man with too much time on his hands, he is a man who has found a way to turn other people’s junk into something beautiful and meaningful. The Stoughton Massachusetts resident makes micro-shelters in his backyard. The tiny houses are made out of shipping pallets, castoff storm windows and discarded kitchen cabinets. The largest is about 24 square feet and the smallest is 4 feet tall at its highest point. Each microhouse costs less than $200 to make and comes equipped with transparent roofing.

It is unclear what the girls in these pictures from Russian social networking sites are trying to prove. They seem like they are going for the glamorous and sexy look but it’s a total fail all around.
This isn’t a ring you would pop the question with to a princess that is unless she manages a pc computing firm, is an internet junky or a computer nerd.

Google earth is a very effective tool if used right but this is one feature the Bahrain government would gladly do without. The government blocked Google Earth when it discovered that the oppressed Shiite majority where using the tool to view palaces and other estates that make up 95% of the country. The controversial images captured in an anonymously distributed PDF file caused uproar and fed the current mass revolt happening in the country.

These weapons were all confiscated from the Taliban in Afghanistan. They are indeed well armed for war. They have every kind of weapon imaginable. The Taliban remain a serious threat to peace in that area of the world.

An incredible LEGO Castle. Some of the pieces are from I was a kid in the early 60 's and I'm 52 now. It started when I would build a small house with my son who is 3 years. But he lost interest pretty soon but I went on and the result was this.
