The famous landmark in the Hollywood Hills area of Mount Lee in Los Angeles was created in 1923 as an advertisement. Unfortunately for the advertisers, this sign was a frequent target of pranks and vandalism at that time. Luckily for us, there’s always someone to take a photo, even at that time… So let’s see now how the sign looked like when it was pranked or vandalized… ![]() These photos were taken from Paris Hilton’s Twitter account. They depict the girl who is famous for absolutely nothing doing what she does best, posing for the camera. But you have got to hand it to the girl, not only was she born filthy rich but famous as well. Some folks have all the luck.

Marcheline Bertrand – Angelina Jolie ![]() The title sums it up pretty well, you will see here pictures that are famous or not, but which are all interesting. Each of them comes with a very interesting story, so take some time reading it! Cold War on the Court The U.S. team came to the final having won every game in Olympic play for the past 36 years. But the Soviet Union’s team surprised the Americans with an aggressive offense in the 1972 Munich Games. With six seconds left, the USSR was clinging to a one-point lead when American Doug Collins was deliberately fouled. Collins sank both of his free throws, giving the US. its first lead, 50-49, with three seconds left. The Soviets failed to score, time ran out and the Americans erupted in celebration. But Soviet coach Vladimir Kondrashkin claimed he had called a time-out that was ignored, and Britain’s R. Williams Jones, the Secretary-General of the International Amateur Basketball Federation, ordered the clock set back by three seconds. When play resumed, Soviet star Sasha Belov pushed past two U.S. defenders to sink the winning basket... It’s always interesting to see the impact of time on people and even more when they are famous and have been or are still sex symbols. I must say that most of them are doing pretty well with getting older except for some of them like Kathleen Turner… See more of those comparisons after the jump! Madonna ![]() Richard Gere ![]() The Capybara is the largest living rodent in the world. Its closest relatives are chinchillas and guinea pigs. Its common name means "master of the grasses" in the Guarani language while its scientific name, hydrochaeris, is Greek for "water hog".

Bob Marley ![]() Usually, when we look at the pictures from the end of the 19th and early 20th centuries, we don’t normally contest its authenticity. We automatically think that they are real. But, it proves to be wrong. Even at those times, the masters of photo manipulation were able to erase an “unnecessary” person or to add one. You will also see some modern pictures that were manipulated by the media. It is also interesting to see that the media want us to see only things that arrange them. Civil War Generals, c. 1865 Generally regarded as the world's first commercially successful photojournalist, Matthew Brady was also one of the medium's most accomplished manipulators. In this group portrait of William Tecumseh Sherman and his top officers, he added one figure. For the record, the men are, standing, from left: Oliver Otis Howard, William Babcock Hazen, Jefferson Columbus Davis and Joseph Anthony Mower; seated, from left: John Alexander Logan, Sherman, Henry Warner Slocum and Francis P. Blair. The Original Image Brady added Blair at the far right. One of Sherman's corps commanders in the critical final offensive in Georgia, Blair led the XVII Corps, which protected the rear of Sherman's army during the Atlanta campaign. Like the other men in the photo, he played an important role in the March to the Sea, helping deliver one of the final blows to the Confederate cause. Remember this photo of the squirrel that put its face between the camera and a couple in Canada’s Banff National Park? We published it last week in one of our daily picdumps.

Well, try to recognize them all and then put your results in comments ;) Good luck! ![]() It’s really beautiful and noticeable that this is a décolleté and what it hides ;) All the girls are pretty famous so I didn’t write their names. ![]() |
