Ashanti Eliott-Smith is like any other girls of her age, she goes to school, plays with her friends or her puppy, she likes horses and is a fan of Girls Aloud and JLS… But unfortunately, she has a rare incurable condition (Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome) that makes her age faster than other people, 8 times faster to be more precise. This condition is very rare and only 52 persons in the world suffer progeria, with just one other kid in Britain.

I’d say that this is exactly what all these Asians have in mind!Discover inside the post the many reasons why they’re staring that way…

It would appear from the photos in this post that even the President of the US can’t keep one graduating high school student from Michigan from nodding off. The president’s primary message that day was to urge the students to work hard. Apparently, one student wasn’t interested. 

Designer H.A. Schult has designed the world’s first hotel made entirely of garbage in Rome. The purpose of the hotel is to raise awareness about the damage we are causing to the European seas and the coastline by the large amount of waste that is being washed up. 

These photos of the State signs remind us of what America is all about; A melting pot. Some have the State mottos, some have their Governor’s names, while others have safe driving warnings. All of them are reminders of that the people who live in the US are from all walks of life. 

These pictures depict moments from Demi Moore’s life when she was with her first husband Bruce Willis and then the second one: Ashton Kutcher.

Very interesting set of pictures, especially the old ones.

I love the first one. It seems here that they are taken on photos just after the Fifth Element and G.I. Jane were shot :)

July 1996

These are awesome pictures of waves as if you were inside of them. We have already posted some of them but now we found more of these beautiful photos and included the old ones in here to make the collection more complete. Plus, I don’t think that you’ll regret seeing them again :)

Here’s how the owner of this Lamborghini Gallardo LP560-4 Spyder shows how many cars he beat during "urban races".

It actually looks nice.

This is Yang Youde, a farmer who lives on the outskirts of Wuhan city. Since February 2010, he was attacked by several eviction teams as he rejected a sum of $19,030 for his land. Property developers, who want to build department buildings on his land, didn’t want to pay him the sum he asked which is five times more than what they offered.

After eviction teams tried to eject him from his house, he built a canon from a wheelbarrow and pipes. He makes ammunition from locally sold fireworks. The rockets can reach over 100 metres, and explode with a deafening bang. Little is known if anyone was injured til now.

In May he held off 100 people by firing from a makeshift watchtower.

Way to go man!

I didn’t know that this was one of his passions apart from music and smoking pot

You may say it’s impossible but everything is possible with creativity.

Here are detailed instructions on how to do it :)

Claudine Doury is a French photographer living in Paris.

She chose two main themes for her reports: exploring the changes in Eastern Europe, as well as the metamorphosis of juvenile period of life.  In Paris in 2004, the book called: Artek, un été en Crimée (Artek, a summer in Crimea, Ukraine) of Claudine was published.

The pictures were taken from 1994 until 2003. There are no boring staged or formal photos. All images of Claudine show the true story about the Artek life of children in there.  Some people found the photos absolutely delightful, others subjected them to devastating criticism saying they are being inappropriate.

Moreover, five years after the album publication, it was used as evidence in a scandalous case of corruption of minors by camp administration. 

Ukrainian psychologists reproached Doury that she shot a series of photos for "adults who are prone to pedophilia."
 

Everybody played video games in their childhood or continues playing now. Do you remember such wonderful games as DOOM, Mortal Combat, Quake, and the first Warcraft on some Pentium 133MHz and 4-megabyte video card :)

These were cool times.

Another accessory for iPhone that become more and more popular.

They are called phoneballs and are designed to protect your iPhone from everyday life scratches and cuts. These are soft silicone cases with some testicles hanging in the bottom, protecting your data port. Plus, the creators say you can tug them on and "play with 'em" xDD

After the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, many funny pictures appeared mocking BP.

They don’t like it of course, but hey, it’s for the reason that people are doing it.

The situation in the Gulf of Mexico is really upsetting but maybe these images will raise your mood a bit :)
