Guidelines








  • Jaipur, Rajasthan, India. That's where the palace in the lake is located.
    Read more

  • That picture which is labled incomprehensible,it is in czech lang. and I suppose it could be from MFF UK,where I study.It is by the way mathematic.(Most probably math. analysis)
    Read more

  • The uncomprehensible picture is almost surely from the Faculty of Mathematics and Physics in Prague.
    Apart from this I heared there is also one professor who writes on the blackboard with chalk in his right hand and straight after he cleans it with a sponge in his left hand. The students really have to write fast...
    Read more

  • So many clever tiny guns.

    I'm sure that in ten or fifteen years we'll get to see the array of PDA, laptop, blackberry and cellphone pistols currently deployed against the supervillains of the world.

    (Once they've been replaced by nano-gadgets, of course)
    Read more

  • The last big one, by the way, is Finnish WW-II Era anti-tank-rifle Lahti L-39 ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lahti_L-39)
    Read more

  • I think for the ring gun you mean it uses a 0.06 round, not a 0.6. That would probably break your finger..
    Read more

  • To coho - there are already mobile phone guns, and tazers, too!
    Read more

  • Looking at the instruction manual for the "gun inside the suspenders", it seems that it was meant to be fastened to the underside of the forearm, and worn underneath a suit or similar. From this position, it would be fired by tilting the hand back, presumably with the aid of a wire connecting the trigger to the button it is shown with.
    Read more

  • The man in the last picture with the anti-tank rifle looks damn happy :)
    Read more

  • The "walking stick" gun is actually a riding crop, not a walking stick.
    Read more

  • Any chance of getting a wider shot of the "saddle clasp pistol" in use? I can't figure out where it is mounted or how it operates. It looks in the second photo like it's mounted in back of the cantle, which makes no sense to me unless you want to shoot your "podner."
    Read more

  • I'll have to look...
    Read more

  • Coho blackberry,pda,and cell phone stun guns already exsist. I am shore someone has already made one of the above into a gun, the flashlight shot guns are pretty cool too.

  • Nice :-)
    Read more

  • Better design but why te page is so long even though it shows very few elements in page?
    Read more

  • Hello, I'm new. I just wanted to say that I love the new look.
    Read more

  • You know, you should hide the face in the coffee beans up there, lol.
    Read more

  • New look is great!
    Read more

  • Those clouds occur a couple of times a year (source: SMHI, Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute) over scandinavia and in Sweden they're called "pärlemormoln". Here's an article with picture in swedish: http://www.dn.se/DNet/jsp/polopoly.jsp?d=147&a=736636&rss=1399
    Read more

  • Here is another Snopes article regarding the cruise control story:

    Read more

  • thanks guys, i updated it
    Read more

  • You really should be wondering how they can drive anything else but Ladas in Yakutsk.
    Read more

  • Have you seen the movie Airplane? The pilot joke is much when they do it in the movie.
    Read more

  • I've seen the same phenomenon in the north of sweden, over the arctic circle. they told me they're called "mother of pearl" clouds.
    Read more

  • nacreous means like nacre, which IS mother of pearl! so you're right swedish dude!
    Read more

  • "the disfunctional family" looks a bit like an idealized ending for "Shaun of the dead" : happy couple + zombie daughter :)

  • "Love is in the air, and just about everywhere else"
    Muy buenas.

    Gracias.

  • the guy looks a lot like shaun of the dead too.

  • The photo of the girl in the Crocodiles mouth is from Australia Zoo, on the Sunshine Coast of Australia. The Croc is fake and is put there for photos.
    Read more

  • I have a nice addition to the baby sculpture section on this page from artist Antonio Lopez Garcia.

  • I laughed hard on the mystery sign interpretations. I'd like to see more of those (explanations I mean).
    Read more

  • Just to nitpick, many of those are Armored Personnel Carriers (BMP-1s and BMP-2s, looks like), rather than tanks.

    The lack of an Extremely Large Turreted Gun is the giveaway there.

    (Things with an Extremely Large Non-Turreted Gun are mobile artillery, not tanks either.)
    Read more

  • A man in Texas I knew lost a D9 Cat (very similar to a tank but no gun) in a Gulf Coast salt marsh. The only thing that was left was bubbles and the operator swam for his life. The company wrote the thing off 'cause there was nothing that could go and retrieve it.
    Read more

  • Flipped over tanks look so sad.. and adorable! Kinda like ED-209 in Robocop, when he trips on the stairs. Poor ED-209!
    Read more

  • "The source of all driving trouble?
    Somehow we knew it all along -"

    Why ya gotta go and say that?
    Read more

  • "Why ya gotta go and say that?"

    Because it's irresistible?

  • how dioes one get out of an overturned tank?

  • Wonder how many were proceeded by the phrase:

    "Here, hold my beer; hey y'all watch this!"?

  • Cool pool here

  • Isn't the one in Sapporo one of the grand-daddies?

  • On the Dubai Ski Resort, the same company that built it are supposedly set to build another here in North Texas. The "Bearfire Ski Resort" will have an astroturf-type surface in place of real snow. According to a news report about it a while back on CNN, it's the same surface they used on this Dubai resort. I'm sure you can find the report on YouTube.
