The last picture of the Jeep on the ledge has been around since at least the early 80's. It was a Warn winch poster / advertisement. Photoshop didn't exist then. Don't know how they did it though.

indeed, the last pic is of a jeep on black bear pass in telluride, co. supposedly, the road used to be that narrow, however, it has since been widened.

For sheer terror, the Bolivian road still wins, but 10 hours of hellish driving (Halsema Hwy) makes one wonder if there are really places roads just aren't meant to be...

List is great! Bolivian road is mad!! But there are 2 roads that can compete- Sani Pass, South Africa/Lesotho, and the the roads in Northern Pakistan in the Pashtun region (Afganistan/Pakistan).
While in Lesthoto for only 1 day, 2 cars went off, 4 peeps died. CRAZY SH$%!!!!!!! There was no help!

I did the Neal to Tibet trek you mention on foot back in 1996, its quite safe (if quite gruelling) but some of the bridges are quite dilapidated and freaky to cross. Mind you not everyone makes it, some villages showed me the corpse of a trekker they found which had been up there for months like "one of your friends, yes?". Well I took his passport with me to leave at the German embassy so they could tell his parents. Great experience and lovely people there but things might be different now, I hear Lhasa is ruined.

I remember going through that Halsema Highway in the Philippines two years ago when I went on holiday.
It's not that bad but it got a bit intense sometimes because some drivers would overtake each other and what made me kinda concerned was the signs that read "Caution: falling rocks" haha

Traveled the Tibet-Nepal route with an REI Adventures Tour in July 2007. "Exhilarating", to say the least. And to add to the experience, the highway authority was doing maintenance on large portions of the road in anticipation of the increase in tourists expected from the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Fortunately, the Land Cruiser drivers were exceptionally competent.

que arquitectura mas espectacular.
la verdad es que me sorprende ver como avanza la tecnologia y la imaginacion de hombre. Inspirarse en un Ovni para construir un edificio es algo digno de tener en cuenta a la hora de analizar los gustos...
como dicen acá en Chile..."En gustos no hay nada escrito"
a mi en especial me gustó el nuevo edificio, espero algún dia estar allí para verlo con mis propios ojos.
saludos...

A lot of those old vehicles may still be current production! I was just at the VW plant in Peubla Mexico, and they just recently (2003, 2004, sometime) stopped building the old style VW beetle. You can still buy an old-style beetle as new at some of the auto dealers down there.

Hey now! You insult those who refuse to fund the manufacturers of cars that look just like this in a few short years. At these prices you should get some kind of cosmetic longevity return on your big investment of cash. I applaud those plucky few who sneer at car manufacturers and put advertising for the low quality and high price in automaker's faces by continuing to drive them. I too am insulted because my car looks little better than these.

Anomalyzer! How do you think the crank for the fan on the back of the jeep is turned if she steers with one hand and shifts with the other. Where is the hand for her cell phone?

On the Cuban buses:
Cuba has an enormous problem with public transport, or lack thereof. The Camel buses are quite a clever invention as they can carry far more passengers than an ordinary bus. I suspect they're made of parts of buses welded on a chassis.
The odd thing I found is that I've seen those buses in Havana where more ordinary buses run outside Havana to transport hotel personnel. Seems impractical to have such a long vehicle in a city.

I have worked at many radio stations over the years. Some of these pictures are TAME compared to the nest of wiring I've seen. One engineer even said that it was easier to run a new wire than to trace the one that needed replacing.

The Cray is NOT a bad job. Part of the PM on a Cray, and any other Supercomputer that I have worked on has been to measure the impedance of the wire and trim until it is within spec. The wires have to look like this because it would be insane to lace them have to unlace them all trim them and relace them all.

The MD-80 is actually not a bad job, neither is the cray 1 (if that is what those bins of what looks to be 24 gauge wire is for). In both cases, it's just a lot of wire, at least it's not being stretched and thrown around in a mess. It's all orderly and bundled

It's Russian just by one, but the main reason - it was invented in Belorussia in the time when it was a part of Russia.

@casus belli please avoid making Russian what is well-known to be Soviet - Victory Day on 9th of May is USSR achievement, not RSFSR one; strategic armed forces were done in Soviet time (not Russian); etc etc etc. And if you take it for granted - even "modern" Topol missile system were designed and launched in production (and then suspended in early 90s). In other words, current Russian system can not do anything apart feeding huge bureaucracy machine and filling up oligarch's pockets ;)

Despite the skull and crossbones that cover the bright red button at the center of this Self Desctruction USB Hub and give it the aura of impending doom if you get anywhere near that button, the device is actually just a four-port USB hub. But in those moments in front of your computer when you lose a ton of work, get fired via email, or slow processing simply breaks the camel's back, sometimes a resource for even merely mimicking your own self-destruction can provide relief. You'll be happy when you wake up the next morning that it wasn't real.

It may be a USB hub, but it is very similar to the controller for a 100 ton sheet-metal press at a factory I worked at back around 1987.
