Oil Slowly Reaches Louisiana’s Marshes (39 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       26 May 2010       7360

It has been over a month since the explosion of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig. It flows into the Gulf of Mexico slowy reaching Louisiana’s marshes. Over 60 miles of Louisiana’s shoreline have been oiled already. The leak will reportedly be plugged with cement and mud this week. Hopefully the oil will be finally stopped. So far about 6 million gallons of oil have spewed into the Gulf. At the same time scientists think the spill has surpassed the 11-million-galon oil spill that occurred in Alaska in 1989.

Protests Can Be Funny (7 pics + 1 video)

Posted in PICTURES       26 May 2010       6873

In Russia, 'VIP' people and government representatives drive cars with strobe lights ignoring all traffic rules and not paying attention to simple drivers, which causes a mass wave of discontent in the country. People who are fed up with it, mostly drivers that should often bare these 'VIPs', make protests from time to time.

Here’s one man who expressed his discontent in an unusual but rather creative way :)

The Famous One Log House (23 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       26 May 2010       25510

This Redwood Log House is unique. It is made from one trunk of a Redwood tree by Len Moore who came up with this cool idea after finding a shelter in the Redwood tree trunk during a storm. Because this tree was really giant, the creator decided to build a house out of one log.

The house was constructed in 1938. It looks impressive, but the mere fact is that the tree used for the house “walls” was almost 2000 years old.

Actually there were 4 log houses built from one trunk, and one house now belongs to Robert Ripley. This cabin is 33 feet long. It contains over 11,000 feet of lumber, enough to build a five bedroom house. And it’s famous all over the world.

Wanna come in?

Ukrainian VIP Jail (28 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       25 May 2010       13305

Despite its economic adversity, there are such comfortable prisons in the Ukraine. This one is situated near the city of Kharkiv. It is called VIP ‘cause it resembles more a SPA than a prison. Even Ukrainian students don’t have such living conditions in dormitories.

Many prisoners after purging their sentence commit crimes again just to return to this place. Because even in their own home they don’t have such a level of comfort and cannot afford the food they have in this prison.

However, it is not like a 5 star Justizzentrum Leoben prison, Norwegian or some of German prisons, but I still think it is too good for prisoners…

Greenland - the Evolution of Ice (12 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       25 May 2010       7109

The main theme of the June issue of National Geographic is about Greenland - the largest island of the earth covered with ice.

One of the articles of the magazine is devoted to the melting of the glaciers of the island. Photographer James Balog organized a survey of ice in Greenland and other large glaciers of the planet (EIS - Extreme Ice Survey) in 2006.

James and his colleagues established 35 special cameras that are powered by sunlight, protected of moisture, have a wind shield and make shots on a periodic basis. In one year, a single camera makes from 4000 to 12000 shots. Thus, it makes the cameras some sort of artificial eyes, which allows monitoring the evolution of the ice.
