Earth Day is celebrated annually since 1970 in order to remind people how we affect this world and how our planet affects and sustains us. Great “Earth Day” photos are after the jump.

There is a way to hide your butt crack when you are wearing low-rise jeans. You can use this nice looking butterfly patch :)

This dangerous arsenal of weapons was confiscated from Italian football fans who attended the famous Rome Derby between the two major Rome teams, Lasio and Roma.

When parents in China can’t afford child care, they leave their kids on work or on the streets tied up… Very sad photos.

Iceland’s Eyjafjallajokull’s volcano continued to spew ash all over Europe, it should remind all of us of the wrath that Mother Nature can wreak. As the volcano continued to rumble and hurl ash skyward it also brought us some beautiful scenery as these photos prove. Although the volcano shut down airports all over Europe, it also made for some gorgeous and interesting photography.

Some people love tattoos so much they make them on the bottom of their feet. This collection of crazy foot tattoos is pretty cool.

I recently found great works by Manjari Sharma, an Indian photographer from New York, and liked her Shower series the most. Soft light, nice atmosphere and different people who visited Manjari’s apartment to participate in an unusual photo shoot.

Guangzhou, the capital of Guangdong (China), is slashed by heavy rain. Streets and roads are hidden under the water.

I fell in love with this great blue cat from “Alice in Wonderland” movie, but of course all these artworks by two artists Bobby Chiu and Michael Kitsche are awesome!

I used to fish when I was younger, but I never saw such a worm. It can probably be used to catch a shark :)

As part of an effort to stay one step of counterfeiters, the U.S. Treasury Department has unveiled a high tech makeover of the $100 bill. These photos show the new version of the $100 bill and how it changed through decades till its appearance in 1860.

The front of the 1890 version of the $100 bill.

This is how our world looks like today, according to Reuters. Great photos made by professionals, both emotional and affecting.

This house looks neat until you see the back yard. I would be ashamed to live in such a mess! This yard definitely needs spring-cleaning.

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…
 

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!

I love roller coasters that are faster than a car and longer than a mile. Photos of extreme coasters that are both exciting and scary are after the jump.

These wonderful human portraits look like photos. They were painted by Simon Hennesy who is a genius in creating meticulously detailed drawings. I love all his works!

After inappropriate and WTF book covers and unconventional books for children, here comes improper comics covers… Improper but hilarious ))

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.

Atlantis shuttle is getting ready for its final mission. It will take off on May 14. Inside the post, you can see some pictures of the preparations.
 

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 :)

This photo is so sad :( It has touched my heart, and I am sure it will touch yours too.

I mean the second photo, of course.

When you see models on catwalks, they are always so gorgeous and sexy. But when I look at all these girls without make-up, I can't stop but thinking that they are too ordinary, sometimes even anorexic.  Judge for yourself after the jump.
