Cyclists share water bottle with Thirsty Koala

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 08:59:00 +0000

Even though we had heard that native animals have been suffering in the heat wave conditions of the last week in Adelaide it came as a surprise to be stopped on the side of the road during a bike ride by a thirsty young koala, 04more images after the break...

In the southern hemisphere the summer has just ended. It had been a really hot summer in Australia and the koala bear suffered a lot from the weather. Koalas do not drink water, instead they get the water they need from the eucalyptus leaves that they eat. However, it was so hot that the koalas actually had to get water from humans. The cyclists were surprised to see this koala approach them as they stopped to have a drink. The koala bear looked at them with thirsty eyes and they somehow got the message that the little guy was thirsty. They gave his the water bottle and he drank from it as if he had done so his whole life. The other koala is at a house. The owners of the home saw the koala approach and left a tub of water out for it. It not only had a drink but decided to cool off by jumping in! Link

18 more images after the break...

Laila Amaria Ali (born December 30, 1977) is a retired American professional boxer. She is the daughter of boxing legend Muhammad Ali from his third wife Veronica Porsche Ali.

Boxing career
Ali began her boxing career when she was 15 years old. When she first noticed women's boxing she was watching a Christy Martin fight. She first came out about the news on the morning show Good Morning America when interviewing with Diane Sawyer. On the show Ali quoted "I've been contemplating doing it since I was 18, ever since I found out that women boxed". When she first told her father, Muhammad Ali, that she was planning on pursing a boxing career he was not happy about her going into such a dangerous profession. She explained to her father that she was going to box whether he liked it or not. In her first match, on December 8, 1999, she boxed April Fowler of Michigan City, Indiana. They fought at the Turning Stone Casino Convention Center on the Oneida Indian Nation in Verona, New York. Although this was Ali's first match, many media and fans were there, the main reason being because she is Muhammad Ali's daughter. Ali knocked out April Fowler in the first round. Ali also won her second match by a TKO with only 3 seconds left on the clock. In that match her opponent was Shadina Pennybaker who is from Pittsburgh. They fought at the Mountaineer Race Track in Chester, West Virginia. Ali ran off eight wins in a row and many boxing fans started talking about wanting to see her square off in a boxing ring with George Foreman's daughter, Freeda Foreman, or Joe Frazier's daughter, Jackie Frazier-Lyde. On the evening of June 8, 2001, Ali and Frazier finally met. The fight was nicknamed Ali/Frazier IV in allusion to their fathers' famous fight trilogy. Ali won by a majority judges' decision in eight rounds. This match by Ali and Frazier was the first pay-for-view match between two black women. During that match, Joe Frazier, Jackie Frazier's father, was there to watch his daughter fight. Muhammad Ali, Laila's father, was not there but her mother Veronica Ali was present to watch the fight. — wikipedia

Red roses in short supply on Valentine's day

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 08:46:00 +0000

VARANASI: It will be difficult to gift a red rose this Valentine's Day. The low production of red roses in the region and the whole of northern India has caused an acute shortage of red roses in the city.
According to Govind Kumar Verma, a flourist and supplier of decorative flowers in Luxa, the long lasting winters have played a major role in this."Roses need hot and humid climate to grow. However, this year the horticulturists have faced tremendous difficulty in growing the flower. A plant that should give nearly three-four flowers a day has produced only one-two flowers. On the other a hand, it was difficult to take out even 100 red roses from a field that has a capacity of producing approximately 800 flowers a day," informed Verma.
Notably, a large quantity of flowers in the city is brought from adjoining villages specially Raja Talab, Lohta, Sundarpur, Shivpur, Babatpur and neighbouring districts like Allahabad and Lucknow. The occasional demand like for Valentine's Day is being met by ordering flowers from Pune, Bangalore, Delhi and Kolkata. But if the flourists of the city are to be believed, the climate has affected rose production in all these areas.
However there is a huge demand for roses in the town but buyers, especially youngsters
, are not ready to give a second thought while purchasing roses for their dear ones. "Valentine's Day is incomplete without the roses. Nothing can best replace the value of a rose. Even a single stick of rose is valuable for people who enjoy this manmade festival," shared Nikita, a student of Banaras Hindu University (BHU) and a buyer at a gift shop in Sigra."The very first thing that comes in mind while choosing gifts for people you would want to wish Valentine's Day is a red rose. It is costly at this time but no one minds shelling out extra bucks," shared Arun, another buyer for Valentine's gifts.A local rose stick that earlier cost Rs 10 is now selling at Rs 20 and Rs 30 with decorations, while the imported red roses which usually are available at Rs 30 per stick are selling for Rs 45-50 and Rs 60 (with decorations) per stick. "The prices of bouquets with roses have also increased, and customers are told about the increased prices of the red roses before decorating a bouquet. Some customers are choosing to cut short the number of roses for that matter," informed Verma.

Pakistan catch united states man after Gun bullets found in baggage

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 08:38:00 +0000

PESHAWAR, Pakistan- An American was held for questioning in Pakistan on Tuesday after security officials at the airport in northwestern Peshawar discovered bullets in his luggage, police said, the latest likely irritant in ties between the two countries.The American was due to fly from Peshawar to the capital Islamabad, said Tahir Ayub, a senior police superintendent."He has been detained at the airport and is under interrogation," Ayub told Reuters. "We are in contact with the foreign office in Islamabad to check about his background and tell us if he has diplomatic immunity."Ayub said a pistol and 12 magazine rounds had been recovered from the man's luggage, while another police officer said security officials had only found bullets.A U.S. official in Islamabad said the embassy was looking into the details of the reports.The detention is likely to revive memories of Raymond Davis, an American CIA contractor who shot and killed two Pakistanis in the eastern city of Lahore in January 2011.A third Pakistani died when he was hit by an embassy vehicle racing to extract Davis from the scene where an angry mob had gathered.After initial confusion, the U.S. embassy in Islamabad said Davis had diplomatic immunity, which Pakistan refused to recognize. Davis spent almost two months in jail before being released after the payment of compensation to the families of the two men killed.The incident was a major blow to the relationship between the United States and Pakistan, a key ally in the war on terror.Ties were just beginning to thaw when U.S. commandos killed al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in a Pakistani military town on May 2 in a secret raid which infuriated Islamabad.

General Kayani said parliament to decide restoration of NATO supply and relations with US,says defence budget is 18pc & not 70pc

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 18:34:00 +0000

JACOBABAD, RAWALPINDI, (SANA): Chief of the Army Staff, General Ashfaq Parvez Kayani has said that the decisions regarding restoration of NATO supply and Pak-US relations will be made by the Parliament and parliamentary committee on national security, adding that defence budget of the country is 18 percent and not 70 percent, adding that wrong facts are presented in talk shows regarding defence budget.
According to a statement issued by ISPR, Gen Kayani said that even out of that paltry 18 percent only 8-9 percent of funds trickled down to the sentinels of the country, which was a matter of serious concern.
He said that the defence budget has been decreased due to increase of dollar price and soaring prices of commodities, adding that the 1.5 billion dollars of coalition support fund also has not been received by army, adding that instead of the ongoing war against terrorism the defence budget is decreasing.
Army Chief said that this is wrong impression that Pakistani fighter jets are unable to hit the NATO aircrafts.
General Ashfaq Pervez Kayani said that Parliament would decide weather Nato supply route should restore or not, adding that Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani’s statement regarding Nato supply was very clear.
The Army chief appreciated the role of Pakistan Air Force during operation in tribal areas, adding that F-16 jets would be seldom used in war on terror.
Meanwhile talking to media persons at Shahbaz airbase in Jacobabad Gen Kayani said that decisions regarding the restoration of NATO’s supply and Pak-US relations will be made by the Parliament.
Meanwhile Air Chief Rao Qamar Suleman said Shahbaz Airbase is in complete control of Pakistan’s Air Force, adding that the armed forces of the country are fully capable to give befitting reply of any aggression.
He said that there is nothing in F-16 fighter jets which could stop hitting US planes, adding that there is no danger to the defence of the country.He said that the drones are being prepared in Pakistan but these are not enjoying the facility of firing missiles, adding that Pakistani air force is fully prepared to reply the Indian war plan.
He said that F-16 fighter jets were received from the US were fully equipped with modern weapons. The new F-16 fighter planes would help strengthening the potential of Air Force.

Man wins and crashes Lamborghini

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sun, 25 Dec 2011 06:19:00 +0000

A US truck driver who won a Lamborghini supercar in a competition crashed it just six hours later. David Dopp, 34, from Santaquin, near Salt Lake City, Utah, now plans to sell the £190,000 Lamborghini Murcielago Roadster.
“Yeah, I got it on Saturday and I wrecked it on Saturday,” he told local reporters. The father-of-six says he can’t afford the insurance or the taxes on the lime green convertible which he won in a contest run by a local chain of shops.“That’s why rich people own them,” he said. “The poor people like me don’t. I have bills more important than a Lamborghini. I’ve got a family to support.”
Mr Dopp was taking a friend for a spin in the car when he hit black ice while taking a corner at about 45mph.
The car went through a fence and came to rest in a field about 75ft from the road with damage to both front and back ends of the car, plus a punctured oil pan and tyre.
His wife Annette admitted: “My heart pretty much fell out. They said they were OK. Then came, you know, that feeling when your heart drops and you’re like, ‘Oh, my gosh. What do we do now?’”
Police say the Lamborghini’s high-performance summer tires weren’t suited for icy conditions. Happily for Mr Dopp, he was insured. –YN

10 Story Building Transform the Facade 1000 Recycled Doors

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 24 Dec 2011 05:56:00 +0000

South Korean Artist Choi Jeong-Hwa used 1000 brightly colored recycled doors to transform a bland 10-story building into an eye-popping visual indulgence. Jeong-Hwa is a master of using found objects to make provocative spaces, and the project is one of his most ambitious attempts to place normal things in an extraordinary way. The doors stretch up the scaffolding of the mid-rise, giving the hulking mass a pixelated charm. 02 more images after the break...

Choi Jeong-Hwa’s imagery is born out his desire to let art engage with the greater population. His work is almost delusional – he takes ordinary, often discarded items and uses them to create unique spaces.
1000 Doors engages with the entire city of Seoul through its immense scale. The mass of doors reads like a crazy advertisement from afar. Up close, the juxtaposition of the common doors scaling the full height of the building is a bit jarring, if not amusing.
The piece makes a statement about how art changes how we see, as Jeong-Hwa puts it: “People think you can only find Korean Art in Museums and Galleries” for “other artists”. The ambiguity and strength of his work rests in the tactile quality of the discarded object itself.
