When former Russian President Vladimir Putin is not swimming in a very cold river, resting in the branches of a tree, hunting or doing any of all the other manly things he usually does, well, he apparently is just the animal lover.
Yep, Putin is not just pictured in macho poses, you can also see him in ‘cute’ photos with animals…
The Sudd, is a vast swamp in southern Sudan, formed by the White Nile.
Its size is highly variable, averaging over 30,000 square kilometers. During the wet season it may extend to over 130,000 km².
The sunlight and water contribute to the proliferation of plants that have no roots and float on the surface, forming a sort of a live carpet. Eventually plants become larger, thicker which with time creates a dense floating plant life of the swamp. Apparently, it is so strong that it can hold the weight of large animals.
These are the best advertisements on buildings. They are very clever and ingenious. The advertisement illustrates their slogan if they have one. They certainly make their point and do the product a real service.

This luxurious Russian mansion is located in a small village near Moscow. It is owned by Vladimir Bryntsalov who owns one of the major pharmaceutical companies in Moscow. It is very stately and obviously worth a lot of money. It also seems that the more money they have, the more tasteless they are…
It seems the owner of this motorbike hadn’t ridden it for a long while. So when he finally decided to go on a ride, he found something completely unexpected inside of his bike.

For a crocodile, it’s easy to attack an elephant when they have such long trunks.
Apparently, the mother was protecting her baby from a crocodile.
It feels like it is a common practice for crocodiles to attack baby elephants.
These are historical photos that show child labor in the USA in 1908-1912.
The Batillus class supertankers are the largest vessels by gross tonnage ever built. There were 4 of them, each at 555,000 metric tons DWT, constructed by France in the 1970s. A gross tonnage of Batillus is 275,276 tons. Still, if considering fully-loaded displacement, the Batillus ships don’t hold the world’s record. They are edged out by the Seawise Giant ship that serves as an oil tanker. Still, the Batillus class ships are records for tankers (with the depth of 36 meters and full load draft of 28.5 meters), and, inside this post, you can see how these largest ships were built.
These are very humorous signs that were apparently found around various towns. Some are advertisements by some rather well known companies and others were created by proprietors of a local business. In either case the author of these signs should have known better.
These are a unique combination of an artist’s sketch and a photograph. Some of the sketches blend in with the photograph and others humorously complement them. In either case they are very amusing and interesting. The artist Ben Heine is simply a genius.

Proctor & Gamble has a long history of controversies.
What seems innocent and acceptable imagery back then is now considered repulsive and disturbing now.
I thought it would be fun to take a closer look at their products and advertising.
The Ivory Soap ads are a good example …

Katy Perry, named the hottest woman in the world by Maxim Magazine, is having quite the year. Not only did she come out with a huge summer hit, but she also came out with absolutely colossal cleavage. And if these boobalicious photos don’t prove that she’s the hottest babe around, than just consider the fact that she loves to show off

Carefully read each of the following statements. Maybe you’ll recognize your inner thoughts in some of them.
The former Ohio Edison Mad River Power Plant's smoke stake that was 275 feet tall fell the wrong way and crushed the surrounding buildings during the demolition process. The tower also knocked down two power lines and caused the power loss in the city for two hours. It all happened because the demolition company didn’t detect a crack on one side of the tower. Luckily, no one was hurt because of this mistake.
This is supposedly a unique way to warm your pizza at the office. It appears that you simply place your slices of pizza in a chamber beneath your Mac computer and it will warm while you are working. It looks real but I don’t know.
Yeah it is Friday once more and time to relax and let off a little steam. Enjoy these photos for a fun start to your weekend.
