The 2008-2009 Volvo Ocean Race has arrived in Boston Harbor.
Boston is the 6th port city for the eight teams which will race around the globe for nine months over 37,000 nautical miles split into 10 legs.
The ships they sail are Volvo Open 70 class racing yachts, 21.5 meters (70.5 feet) long, manned by a crew of 11.
While the ships are in port, they hold in-port races as well as hosting events and entertainment for local residents.
Please peruse, absorb, and be motivated!

During six years the Japanese were elaborating and testing a two mode bus. This bus can drive on ordinary roads and on the rails.
The change between two modes lasts only 15 seconds. .

A very cute puppy, he seems to be a cuddly toy.
If you see him among other plush toys, you won’t even notice him ;)
The incident happened in Netherlands. An old lady on her little Fiesta crashed into a building. There was a lot of noise and smoke, but nothing serious. The reason is very simple and common for this type of accident - the old lady accidently accelerated instead of pushing the brake pedal …The guy that you’ll see in the post helped the old lady to get the car out of the building and he even repaired its wheel.
Here’s a longcat. He’s so cute? You’ve probably seen him on the internet. Now, what you are going to see are the different photomontages with the cat, even with his “evil twin” ;))
Some pix are really hilarious ))
Do you remember your childhood? Sometimes it happened when you asked your mom to buy you a toy that you wanted so bad and she said "no", so all of a sudden all your dreams were broken.
Well, look at those little Chinese children and say yourself that your childhood was not so bad ;))

A natural gas pipeline exploded in southwestern Moscow at night on 10 May.
The flames came out of the pipe and were soaring more than 100 meters into the sky. The area affected by fire is between 600 and 800 square meters.
I guess it can be really scary, especially if it wakes you at night.
