A very interesting experiment with the use of various firearms.
Look, what will happen to the helmet when it is shot from a distance of 25 feet.

Concert didn’t happen as planned (12 photos)

Posted in PICTURES       3 Jul 2009       8533
Thousands of people came at the B93's 17th-annual Birthday Bash country music concert at the Ionia Fairgrounds, Michigan.
It all started well, but later people had trouble to leave. A stretch of the Grand River rose Saturday, cutting off exits to parking area for thousands of people. They had to abandon their vehicles and take only the essential with them. They found shelter in a local school.

He is a hero. A real superman in real life (7 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       2 Jul 2009       21240
A woman turned over in her boat in the swirling water at the base of a dam. She couldn’t get out and rescue boats couldn’t come near enough to pull her out.
Who do you think came into her rescue?... An ordinary guy, a construction worker saw her and without thinking he and his crew made a rescue operation involving a crane. The worker hung on the chains that were attached to the crane and then he was lowered to the water by the crane and could grab the woman’s hand and pulled her out.
Hats off to the real hero!!!

Manipulation of facts and the media (5 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       2 Jul 2009       9942
This advertising campaign is managed by the Brazilian media Sistema Jangadeiro that made these pictures with the slogan: It would be very easy to manipulate facts if it weren't for the media.
But in reality, it is precisely how the media distort the facts. I would say that it is rather advertising campaign fail ...
Look at the photos and their originals after the jump.

Inside the post you will see the ten best and ten worst cities of our planet, according to Mercer's 2009 Quality of Living survey.
Let's start with the best cities. So, the tenth place is going to Sydney, Australia.


10. Sydney, Australia

Australia's largest city, with a population of nearly four and a half million, Sydney's beaches, beautiful harbour and cultural attractions - including the Sydney Opera House - are its big draws, although, according to Mercer, it is the world's 15th most expensive city.

The process of silk-making (13 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       2 Jul 2009       35633
Silks are produced by several other insects, but only the silk of moth caterpillars has been used for textile manufacture.
Silk moths lay eggs on specially prepared paper. The eggs hatch and the caterpillars (silkworms) are fed fresh mulberry leaves. After about 35 days and 4 moltings, the caterpillars are 10,000 times heavier than when hatched, and are ready to begin spinning a cocoon. A straw frame is placed over the tray of caterpillars, and each caterpillar begins spinning a cocoon by moving its head. Two glands produce liquid silk and force it through openings in the head called spinnerets. Liquid silk is coated in sericin, a water-soluble protective gum, and solidifies on contact with the air. Within 2–3 days, the caterpillar spins about 1 mile of filament and is completely encased in a cocoon. The silk farmers then kill most caterpillars by heat (100 °C), leaving some to metamorphose into moths to breed the next generation of caterpillars.
