From Ordinary Girl into a Beautiful One! (42 pics)

Posted in GIRLS       23 Apr 2010       88298

We posted an entry with one Chinese girl who transforms into a pretty gal after putting makeup on. Here she is once again, only this time she masters the technique of putting her makeup even better than before. Personally, I think she looks much better here than in her previous transformation. And the fake hair she uses this time looks more natural.

The Giant Oil Rig Explosion of the Gulf of Mexico (17 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       23 Apr 2010       12165

If you watch the news from time to time, then you know that an oil drilling platform has just recently exploded 50 miles off the Louisiana coasts.

126 workers were aboard the Deepwater Horizon rig when it blew up. 100 workers made it to the supply boats but 11 are still missing, seventeen were injured, four of them critically.

They still don’t know for sure what is at the source of the incident, the investigation is still going on…

Those pictures are very impressive, look at the size of the flames and how big the smoke cloud is! A lot of work for the fireboats and coast guards and a lot of pain and sadness for the families directly concerned by the accident…

Waterboard Thrill Ride at Coney Island (6 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       23 Apr 2010       7513

This installation at the Coney Island arcade was created by artist Steve Powers. The purpose of the installation is to get people to think about interrogation techniques. For $1, a visitor can watch an animated robot lean over a man in an orange jumpsuit and pour water into his mouth and nose, which produces convulsions for 15 seconds.

This is how modern bomb shelters look like. Of course, their prices are really high. This one, for example, costs $10 million. Do I need one? The answer is… NO :) But it is great!

International Wine Challenge is a prestigious wine competition in London. I wouldn’t mind to have such a job: spending the whole day walking and tasting, at your leisure, wines. Easy job, and I will never spit out wine like these judges do :)

Crash Test: Car vs. Boars (3 pics)

Posted in       23 Apr 2010       16012

Wild boars are common guests on German roads. They can run into traffic, thus automobile clubs conduct crash tests to see the impact of a collision with a horde of boards. The life-size models were attached to a rolling platform. The car smashed into boars at 62 mph (80 kilometers an hour) damaging the front. The passenger cell was untouched, so if this happens in reality, people inside the car will survive.

One man came home from work and found this mess. It was left by his dog that didn’t like to stay alone at home. Mess itself wasn’t a shock, but the dog itself looked really unusual :)
