It is likely that the hotel Burj Al Arab has now a worthy opponent.
Mardan Palace is the most expensive hotel in Europe (the construction cost to its owners €1.4 billion) and it is situated in the popular Turkish resort town of Antalya.
The hotel has 560 rooms which cost from $ 475 up to $ 19, 000 (the most expensive rooms come along with private swimming pool, huge TV, concert grand piano and other stuff). And now take a look at the photos.
It's always a shame to see ruined cars, especially when it’s brand new ones. They will never be brought back to shape after that; the only thing left is the recycling. Inside the post you’ll see flooded cars from everywhere and the first set of pictures are Skoda cars flooded right after they were assembled in the plant.
And here you can watch burned cars and another post on the same topic with cars.
On the first picture you see a man who is holding his little daughter of two years old by a leg out of the window.
He wanted to commit suicide and at the same time kill his innocent daughter.
And if it were not courageous actions of a rescuer, who knows how it could have ended. Finally, the police arrested the father who later tested positive for drugs.
Great pictures of the rescue operation after the jump!
By looking at these pictures, it becomes clear that animals are often much more kind and caring than humans.
Huacachina is a small lost paradise located in the desert of the Ica region, in south-western Peru. There are only 115 inhabitants (1999).
The particularity of this village is that it has been built around a small natural lake in the desert called the "Oasis of America.”
The two main activities in addition to swimming are sandboarding and taking dune buggy rides on sand dunes that stretch several hundred feet high.
Going on vacations in an oasis is rather cool and frankly, I would be glad to spend one week or two over there this summer!
Meet Beth Ditto. She is only 28 and weighs 242 pounds. She is a feminist lesbian but also a quite popular singer.
She even has her own page in Wikipedia.
Hey!!!
How are you?
It’s easy to work these days since the weather is not that great. Here in West of France we had some rains, it’s not that hot anymore. But I hope that this weekend it will be hot so it would be possible to go on the beach :))))))
Hope it’s a good weather where you are.
See you tomorrow!
To ensure that employees at Keihin Electric Express Railway in Japan are putting their best lip forward, the company has implemented a "smile check" policy, in which workers will be required to smile into a camera and have their mug subjected to software analysis of their happiness.

Imagine if you could look at something once and remember it forever.
The group of scientists was studying a poorly-understood region of the visual cortex.
The researchers concluded that this region of the visual cortex, known as layer six of region V2, is responsible for creating visual memories. They found that if they boosted production of a protein called RGS-14 (pictured) in that area of the visual cortex in mice, it dramatically affected the animals' ability to remember objects they had seen.
What's particularly intriguing is the fact that this protein works on visual memory only. So, it would be perfect for mapping. It would also be useful for engineers and architects who need to hold a lot of visual images in their minds at once. And it would also be a great drug for detectives and spies.
An astonished mother has told how she gave birth to conjoined twins despite being told by medics she was expecting two normal babies.
Scans and ultrasound tests had failed to pick up that the babies were joined at the waist, forming one long body with a head at each end.
Doctors in Xiaogan, eastern China, have so far been unable to say even what sex the tots are as they have been born without any external sexual organs.
The commanding officer of a regiment in the U.S. Marine Corps was about to start the morning briefing to his staff, battalion and company commanders.
While waiting for the coffee machine to finish its brewing, the colonel decided to pose a question to all assembled.
He explained that his wife had been a bit frisky the night before and he failed to get his usual amount of sound sleep.
He posed the question of just how much of sex was ‘work’ and how much of it was ‘pleasure?’
The regimental executive officer chimed in with 75-25% in favor of work.
A captain said it was 50-50%.
The colonel’s aide responded with 75-25% in favor of pleasure, depending on his state of inebriation at the time.
There being no consensus, the colonel turned to the private who was in charge of making the coffee. What was HIS opinion?
Without any hesitation, the young PFC responded, ‘Sir, it has to be 100% pleasure.’
The colonel was surprised and, as you might guess, asked why?
‘Well, sir, if there was any work involved, the officers would have me doing it for them.’
The room fell silent.
It’s become a trend or what for the kids to kill cats??? Here’s a site that talks about Tyler Hayes Weinman who’s accused in Kitty Serial Killer Case. I’m shocked!

That's how long it took this man to make his super car in his own garage.
But still, 10 years, it takes a lot of patience.
The car is not bad at all.
It’s not necessary to make a description; one can easily get the idea behind those pics.
Take a look inside the post, it’s very simple, but it’s funny and pretty well made!
The construction of the Colorado River Bridge over Hoover Dam continues and the opening is planned in 2010.
It is a real mega construction, the total length of the bridge will be 579 meters and the height will be 256 meters above the Colorado River.
The bridge will give a magnificent view on the dam and will be open not only for motorists but for pedestrians too.
I’m not sure about the name of this river but it goes through very scenic areas.
And it is surrounded by real beauty and its water ... well, look for yourself.
That’s how one of the Dutch supermarkets looks. Its shelves are empty.
No, no, it has nothing to do with the crisis. Last weekend, there was an electric blackout when the store was closed and all the fridges were out. When the employees came at work on Monday, well, you can imagine that the product were fit for the trashcan.
More after the jump.
A person who looks very much alike as someone else is something quite common in the human world ;)
But we can meet this phenomenon among animals too, despite the fact that they belong to totally different species.
Art is eternal and there are no rules in creating art.
Even from dollar bills you can create something original and beautiful. Look at these masterpieces.
You are probably already used to the fact that the traditional selection of wallpapers is posted on Fridays.
But this time, I post it sooner as I have already gathered an excellent collection. For a full size - click on the image, it’s in case ;)

Interactive flash animations - it's very cool. You don’t just watch, you can also participate in what happens on your screen.
I spent half an hour playing with this. It was my little break.
In one of these flash animations, the guy will try to steal your mouse cursor, in another – he’ll get scared and will flee from you.
What else to say… go ahead, try it.
