The guy driving the big truck needs to be under arrest. He could easily have killed several people...and not just the one guy in the pickup he kept cutting off.

If the pickup guy had gun which is rather common in Thailand, there might had been shoot out. Look like the pickup guy did some aggressive overtake which made the truck guy angry, and he took revenge on the pickup. There are always such crazy people on earth.

Siberian-latest-2014-0212.jpg


People's Daily Online said:
The picture of this Siberian Tiger is from a video shot on Feb. 12, 2014. It shows the movement of the tiger as recorded by an infrared camera set in a forest in Huichun, northeast China's Jilin Province.

These are huge animlas. Here in the states we have packs of wolves in the mountains where large, individual male wolves can weigh up to 200 lbs. That's a large animal...but I would never want to encounter one of these.

The male Siberian Tiger in the wild:

Body Length: Up to 82" (Record: 98")
Tale Length: Up to 39" (Record: 42")
Wieght: Up to 700 lbs (Record: 847 lbs)

The female Siberian Tiger in the wild:

Body Length: Up to 77"
Tail Length: Up to 36"
Wieght: Up to 480 lbs

One maile Siberain tiger in captivity weighed 1,025 lbs. The largest ones can be close to five feet high at the shoulders.

It would be a heck of a fight to see one of these and a Kodiak Grizzly Bear go at it.

I came across such an article: "Have you ever thought why babies in the arms of beggars always asleep?"

I think this is a common problem in developing countries where social welfare is low and law enforcement is not strict. In Cambodia, especially Phnom Penh, we always see women carrying babies begging for money. However, most people know that the babies are not those women's children.

The article further clarify one thing "Have you ever thought why babies in the arms of beggars always asleep?". This is true but not always true. The article says that there is a mafia like organisation, those beggars are "employees" while the babies are the "tool" for them to work. If the babies stay awake all days, they will cry and beggars will get frustrated. So they feed the babies with wine (vodka) or drug. This sometime kills the babies but the beggars will continue to carry the bodies of the babies until they "log off" because a mother carrying body of a baby will gain more sympathy from people.

It makes me sick to my stomach, and mad as hell, to see children abused. They are so trusting of adults and there loathsome adults that take advantage that privilege.

The scary thing about Siberian tigers is not only are they highly intelligent, they natively have the ability to recognize and distinguish individual humans beings, understand and exploit the concept of "I know where you live", and really really holds a grudge.

A couple of years ago a russian hunter shot a deer a Siberian Tiger was stalking, and took the carcass. The tiger understood the he was no match for a hunter who has a gun. But he wasn't taking this lying down. So he stalked the hunter to his home, waited until the hunter left again, broke into the hunter's home, waited until the hunter came back, and surprised and killed him inside his house.

There was also a bunch of kids who threw rocks at a tiger in an enclosure the San Francisco zoo, and then ran away. The wall of tiger enclosure is suppose to be higher than any tiger can jump. But the tiger in the enclosure proved herself to be able to jump farther and higher, and lept over the top of the wall. The tiger than ignored all the other frightened zoo goers, but tracked down and killed just those kids who threw rocks at her.

WTH?!! Do you believe this?
Here is the actual link on eBay:

It says in the description that it is located in the Ukraine but is not ready to fly and has been rendered demilitarized.

The facts are that the Ukraine military does not own or operate any TU-95s.

So where is it really? And how did these people and their "partner" get it and have it in the Urkaine?

There is apparently one bid for $3,000,000. The terms are payment are cash, in person and on site...or, they will accept a direct funds transfer.

I'm not buying it in two ways.

1) I would never lay down money for something like this. (If you went there with 3 Million, you'd better have a lot of security with you because chances are you would never come back, your money would be gone, and the plane would be up for sale to the next sucker who would provide them with another $3 million.

2) I do not believe it is a valid, up and up deal either (meaning which is another meaning for "I'm not buying it.").

Anyhow...hehehe, the term "buyer beware," was created for stuff like this.

Italy up in arms over Michelangelo's David rifle advert
Italy's culture minister has expressed outrage over an advertisement by a US weapons firm showing Michelangelo's David holding a rifle.
Dario Franceschini said the image was offensive and violated the law.
A number of Italian media web sites carried the image of the advertisement showing David holding a bolt-action rifle.
The advertisement, from Illinois-based ArmaLite, carries the line "a work of art" in promoting the $3,000 rifle.
Mr Franceschini urged the company to withdraw the advertisement for the AR-50A1.
He said in a tweet: "The image of David, armed, offends and infringes the law. We will take action against the American company so that it immediately withdraws its campaign."
Historical Heritage and Fine Arts Board curator Cristina Acidini has issued a legal notice to ArmaLite to withdraw the image, saying it distorts the artwork.
The government says it has copyright on the commercial use of images of David.
Angelo Tartuferi, director of Florence's Accademia Gallery, where the statue is on display, told Repubblica newspaper: "The law says that the aesthetic value of the work cannot be distorted.
"In this case, not only is the choice in bad taste but also completely illegal."
The marble statue of the Biblical hero was created by Michelangelo between 1501 and 1504 and is considered a masterpiece of the Renaissance.

Looks like a masterpiece to me!
little known fact David is in reference to King David the Historical figure who Legendarily slew Goliath. and would have loved to be using one of these as he would have sniped Goliath from over half a mile.
