KidZania – The city of Children. Tokyo (12 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       18 Sep 2009       17136
KidZania is a Mexican chain of family entertainment centers currently operating in 6 locations.
Every KidZania is themed as a child-sized replica of a real city, including buildings, shops and theaters, as well as vehicles and pedestrians moving along its streets. In this city, children, aged 2 through 14, learn about the adult world, the value of money and work, by experiencing up to 70 different professions. Every “professional” activity lasts 30 minutes and parents don’t have the right to interrupt or to interfere in any other manner while their offspring is “working”.
It proofed to be so successful that the other Kidzanias appeared throughout the world. Tokyo was the third city to create a replica city for children in October 2006. The first year of operations had 905,000 visitors, and has been keeping steady.
So here are pictures from the Japanese KidZania!

A man with a strong will (21 pics)

This man deserves the greatest respect.
Having no hands, he didn’t go on the streets to beg but decided to make a living by working.
It is such people that should inspire us when it seems that everything in life is wrong and you feel there is nothing you can change...

Cool junk sculptures by Gabriel Dishaw (50 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       18 Sep 2009       15141
Gabriel Dishaw specializes on ‘junk art’, meaning that all his sculptures are made from “discarded materials, as glass, scrap metal, plastic, and wood.”
Hats off to these incredible sculptures and to the talent of Gabriel. Real nice piece of work!

Another Chinese dorm (8 pics)

I already showed you how people live in the Chinese dorm here and there.
And here's another one similar. It’s crazy, it’s impossible to live like that! I think they should learn what the word “clean” means.

Guess which pic is fake (43 pics)

Today in the menu we have a little test. You need to determine if the picture is real or if it was photoshopped.
Here are the conditions: look at the picture, decide if it is real or fake and then, click on the picture to see the correct answer.
Be careful, I chose these pictures on purpose because sometimes it is very difficult to distinguish a fake with a naked eye ;)

Kanye West – the biggest douchebag of all time (33 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       17 Sep 2009       37630
Since the MTV VMA ceremony, all kinds of humoristic pictures making fun of Kanye West are popping up all over the web.
What to say, he’s the only one to blame. He provoked it. There are even a site making pictures with a “crude humor” about him. So, if you still like Kanye, don’t go see this post ;)

At a friend’s funeral in a woman's dress (5 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       17 Sep 2009       19002
Yesterday, in Dundee, Scotland, the funeral of Private Kevin Elliot was held. He was killed during a rocket attack in Afghanistan.
His best friend Barry Delaney attended the funeral but don’t be surprised that he was in such a provocative dress.
Two friends once had a bet that if only one of them survives, the other one has to come to the funeral in a bright green dress.
And as you can see Barry kept his word.

Unbelievable but true ... (4 pics)

I want to thank our visitor Justin Griggs who sent us this news.
Here's what he wrote: “These are pictures stright out of the oil fields of West Texas. A worker was making his rounds one morning when he drove up on this huge hole in the ground, they call them “sink holes” nobody is sure what causes them, they just happen spontaneously. This one was an estimated 200ft across and over 50ft deep!”
In the last picture, I put a car into a red rectangle so you could see how big this hole is.
If you have interesting material, don’t hesitate to send it to us, we will publish it))
For those who don’t remember, I’ll remind you that you can send us news can very easily with the help of this form.

More and more condom factories are opening in China nowadays. It is not surprising, the problem of overpopulation is still here ;)
I propose you to make a short tour and see how condoms are made in China.

Shop turned into a cattle ranch as a cowboy is moving fugitive cows out! (18 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       17 Sep 2009       3585
The story took place in a supermarket in Puyallup, Washington.
Shoppers were forced to let some place for the two cows that made a detour into the shop during their escape from an annual pre-rodeo cattle drive until a cowboy on a horse made them go out.
Nobody was hurt but the cows made some damages in the shop. It must have been weird for the shop owners and for the clients to see cows coming calmly as if nothing was unusual…

This officer apparently did not know what to do with all those AK-47 magazines (it seems he had plenty of them), but then he found a solution.
He decided to use them to repair the road and make a little path on his backyard. Look.
