Just to let you know, the "tricycle concoction" is a new scooter from Piaggio. I know a place where one's for sale, and I saw one driving about once.

The truck that has 'US airforce afterburner' written on it, just to let you know, is more than likely a just a monster truck... when they transport monster trucks they remove the large wheels and fit small ones and then transport them separately to be easier.

re: Police Oops -
This reminds me of the only traffic accident I saw while in Rome, Italy for an entire summer.
It stuck with me because if you've every witness the traffic in Rome, it seems totally chaotic, yet I almost went throughout the entire summer walking the roman streets without witnessing a single crash.
The one wreck I did see though was a police officer rear-ended a guy driving a Vespa, and even that accident wasn't that serious. The Vespa owner walked away from the collision just fine. I didn't get to see what happened to his moped though.

The `water heater' is an invention from a polish student's dorm in Krakow. I have covered this with a bit of a background some time ago here:
-
Well, it seems that URLs are filtered away on DRB. So, CTRL-C CTRL-V:
,,Long live ages old, never repaired student dorms…
Actually the problem is more complex. There are quite many dorms located in old buildings that have a `cultural heritage’ status and as such may not be modified without authorisation of responsible institutions.
In principle a good regulation, as it prevents ruining rests of old architecture, but sometimes it really backfires - in this case the dorm cannot be modified to provide in-room hot water.
Renovation costs are also pretty high - it’s really controversial sometimes, as the materials used must match the style and finish of the original fittings.Sure again - it’s a god idea, but what if there’s no money for special paint orexotic type of plaster? Shall the building fall into ruin just because nobody’s ready to pay for reverting it to the truly original state, or maybe it’s good to use something cheaper, but preserving the state if not the style?

Probablöy the majority of the crowd has noticed, that most of the pictures were of cars with Russin plates. Wonder why..

Sorry to disappoint all those that think growing a human size one of these would be great and indestructable... If you did manage by some mystery of science to create one any larger than they are now it would probably die, restrictions in cell size, body size and organ size due to water loss, diffusion and active uptake means that surface area to volume ratios must be kept in a certain range or the poor little thing would just die :-( but if you do manage to get a big one going... dont keep it a secret! lol!

The second to the top casemod is "The BFG", it's very very nice model of the BFG in the Doom games, even with a working stroboscope in it. You can view the whole proces of creating this casemod at: http://gathering.tweakers.net/forum/list_messages/1188110/ . It's in Dutch, but there are more than 100 photo's.
