Bad Moments For X-Rays Posted: 04 Aug 2011 06:00 AM PDT Sometimes people try some new things, and often they go wrong. Then they need to go to the doctor who must obtain more precise picture of what went wrong, and that’s when it all comes to light. These are pictures of bodies of people passed through x-rays. Pretty impressive? :)

All We Need – Hot Girl and Cold Beer Posted: 04 Aug 2011 03:49 AM PDT Every man, whether he wanted to confess or not, likes beer and girls, especially if those two go together… Here are some pictures of men’s paradise! So, men, enjoy! :D

Copa America Hottest Fans Posted: 31 Jul 2011 01:15 PM PDT This year’s Copa America isn’t exciting as it was expected. There’s no beautiful plays, nor plenty of goals, just the defence and draw games – but, HEY! – they still got the most gorgeous women out there on the stadiums! And, it is a pity that Paraguay did not win the title at Copa America – Larisa and her compatriots have promised us striptease :( . I don’t want you to get bored, so just take a look at all of these amazing ladies. And, there are few girls that don’t belong here – they’re just random girls from World Cup 2010. source source source source source source source source source source source source source source source source source source source

Awkward Media Situations Posted: 25 Jul 2011 11:46 AM PDT We see them every morning on the TV, bringing us the latest news from around the globe… Although we rarely see them in awkward situations like these, when it happens, it`s a good laugh :).

Useful Or Just Awkward Posted: 17 Jul 2011 12:12 PM PDT Ok, it is obvious that ordinary things aren’t in any more…Let’s see how far can we go. Although I think this is just a beginning!

Unortodox Comedy or Just Lame Movies? Posted: 16 Jul 2011 05:50 AM PDT There is no universal opinion of any movie, so, it`s up to every one of us to decide for himself…Do you like these movies, or they are just a waste of time and money? 10.Scary Movie (2000) Scary Movie is a 2000 comedy-parody film directed by Keenen Ivory Wayans, as part of Wayans Bros. Entertainment. It is an American dark comedy which heavily parodies the horror, slasher, and mystery genres. Several mid- and late-90s films and TV shows are spoofed, most predominantly Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer, along with The Sixth Sense, The Usual Suspects, The Matrix, The Blair Witch Project, and Dawson’s Creek.Cindy Campbell (Anna Faris), meets up with her boyfriend Bobby Prinze (Jon Abrahams) and her friends, Brenda Meeks (Regina Hall), Ray Wilkins (Shawn Wayans), Greg Phillipe (Lochlyn Munro), and Buffy Gilmore (Shannon Elizabeth). Various news teams – including hack reporter Gail Hailstorm (Cheri Oteri) – converge on the school in the wake of Drew’s brutal death. Gail hooks up with Buffy’s mentally disabled brother Doofy (Dave Sheridan), hoping to milk the facts out of him. One day, while Cindy is in class, someone mysteriously leaves a note saying I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER. Cindy then realizes that Drew’s murder occurred exactly one year after she and her friends accidentally killed a man during a wild car ride. Unwilling to face incarceration, the group dumped the body off a nearby pier – but not without robbing him blind first.

Director: David Silverman Writers: James L.

The main plot revolves around a group of three prima donna actors (portrayed by Stiller, Black, and Downey) who are making a Vietnam War film.

Columbus is a shut-in who has spent most of his life inside playing World of Warcraft.

Dumbo Brought Friends Posted: 15 Jul 2011 01:34 PM PDT “When I see the elephant fly”… You all remember that part from the song in “Dumbo” cartoon… Well, these doggys are willing to take their shot at it :).

Free Spirits Posted: 13 Jul 2011 10:25 PM PDT I adore wild horses. The wild horses are the kings of this planet. If someone lives freely, then they do. So clever animals that they don’t allow anyone to grab them; so strong animals that they can kill wild cats that try to steal their foals. Many times in my life I wanted to be a wild horse and to roam free like them. source source source source source source source source source source source source source source source source source source source source

Oscar For The Sneakers Posted: 11 Jul 2011 12:23 PM PDT I think I’m not alone among the fans who pay attention to what the actors wear in movies. The first time I paid attention to the sneakers, I think, back in the ’80s – it was a movie about the guys from the ghetto (or it was Back To The Future?). And, because I trained basketball, I pay attention to awesome shoes they wear. Since then, I unconsciously watching the sneakers that actors wear; so I’ve decided to make an article about shoes in the movies I’ve watched. One day Air Jordan will get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, the Pump will get signed up for a sequel, and Adidas will win the Academy Award for Best Sneaker in a Supporting Role :) Sneaker: Nike Air Woven Movie: Lost in Translation When the Air Woven dropped, it was a hugely significant moment that pulled sneaker design and marketing into the 21st century. You didn’t think you’d see Bill Murray wearing a pair, but in Sofia Coppola’s ‘Lost in Translation’ he pulls them off with ruffled ease. Was there a correlation between a shoe that got an HTM makeover appearing here and a cameo from Mr. Hiroshi Fujiwara? Possibly. source Sneaker: Nike Terra T/C Movie: The Goonies Lawrence “Chunk” Cohen might have needed to shed a few pounds, but he was unlikely to take up running at any point. You can’t knock his pick of the state-of-the-art Terra T/C though — a shoe that introduced the world to Phylon, a technology that was the Lunar foam of its day. Why isn’t there a Terra T/C retro on the shelf? source Sneaker: adidas Phantom Hi Movie: New Jack City Ice-T knew the score. If you’re going to engage in a spectacular pursuit of a young Chris Rock by foot — set in late ’80s New York — do it in a hi-top like the Phantom Hi. Pookie rocks the adidas too and some of the styles that get worn throughout ‘New Jack City’ stay classic. Many of Nino’s suits remain a stylistic no-go, but everyone should reacquaint themselves with this film. source Sneaker: adidas Tourney Movie: Teen Wolf It’s tough trying to work out what’s on Michael J. Fox’s feet in ‘Teen Wolf’ but it looks a lot like the adidas Tourney — a popular basketball sneaker for high schools and colleges at time-of-filming. This movie is festooned in adidas — a stark contrast to the Nike-centric ‘Back to the Future’ franchise that popped off the same year. source Sneaker: Reebok Pump Omni Zone Movie: Robin Hood: Men In Tights A better Reebok Pump moment in a slightly piss-poor film than the excruciating moment of Pump with Ben Kingsley in the ’90s nostalgia of ‘The Wackness’, Dave Chappelle’s decision to Pump up an anonymous looking Pump design is almost funny. It would have been funnier if it wasn’t released two years after the Dee Brown “No Look” dunk it references. source Sneaker: Asics Gel Saga II Movie: Clerks Motormouth Jay wears a surprisingly muted shoe when he’s hanging outside the store in Kevin Smith’s budget classic. Bob always seemed to be more of a Nike dude, but Jay’s soon-to-be-retroed Saga II was a mid-price release that was never really meant for hardcore running. It’s probably better suited for swearing, dancing and harassing folk outside a local retail operation. source Sneaker: Reebok Pump Twilight Zone Movie: Juice As Spike Lee’s cinematographer, did ‘Juice’ director Ernest Dickerson learn the art of sly product placement? Forget Tupac’s 40 Belows for a second and look at the early scene where Omar Epps’s character looks to his brother for morning sneaker approval. Trying on a trio of Pump styles including the Twilight Zone, Court Victory and Omni Zone, his sibling denies each pick and Q settles for a shoe that looks a little like the Nike ACG Caldera. Was this all a Reebok Pump diss? Hard to say. source Sneaker: adidas TRX Movie: McVicar The greatest sneaker sightings are the ones where they’re the star of the scene. The opening of classic Brit-prison flick ‘McVicar’ depicts no less than The Who’s Roger Daltrey battling prison guards over his “trainers” — a pair of the legendary adidas TRX lightweight running design. That was a sought-after shoe on UK shores in its heyday, making it worth serving extra time for. source Sneaker: Nike Air Jordan XIII Movie: He Got Game How do you win your estranged son’s trust? By wearing a killer pair of basketball shoes. Spike’s penchant for product placement hadn’t diminished in the decade that has had passed since he first depicted MJ sneakers on celluloid, and a scene where an ankle-tagged Denzel visits a sports store and is talked into buying a pair of White/True Reds. Then there’s Jesus’s Foamposite Pros and Booger’s Terra Sertigs — but if we tried to cram that all in, this list would get too Spikecentric. source Sneaker: Nike Air Revolution Movie: Do The Right Thing While Buggin’ Out was bugging out over his Air Jordan IVs — very contemporary at time of filming — Radio Raheem was rocking 1987′s pioneering Air Revolution (the first Nike basketball shoe with visible air) in the 1988/89 red and white makeup. This towering design suits the owner as he adopts Robert Mitchum’s ‘Night of the Hunter’ speech, bellows about batteries, acts oddly, loses his stereo and is the tragic victim of heavy-handed policing. The world needs another retro of this shoe in OG colors with a strap that actually fits. Mookie’s Air Trainer SCs (now called the Air Trainer III) are worthy of note too. source Sneaker: adidas Official Movie: Blade Runner Deckard knew that hunting down replicants required a stealthy sneaker. The solution? The adidas Official shoe — a stealthed-out take on the adidas Stan Smith (or Robert Haillet if we’re being pedantic) shoe, with a tweaked outsole. Ridley Scott’s occasionally subtle futurism gives Harrison Ford an extra degree of cool, as he takes a quasi-formal design intended for referees and officials and takes it to somewhere equally neon lit, but a little more dystopian. A trenchcoat and all-black-everything on the feet is a strong look. source Sneaker: Nike Vandal Movie: The Terminator When Kyle Reese is blasted back from the future without clothes in ‘The Terminator’ he knows he can’t beat a murderous hitman android naked. So he robs a department store and takes some Nike Vandals from a bin that have an appropriately tech-noir colorway of black and silver. Seeing as this model never seemed targeted at basketball play, maybe saving mankind was its performance intent. Had Kyle set that dial to one year later, he could have robbed some Nike Terminators from a Georgetown player’s kit bag. source Sneaker: adidas Country Movie: Beverly Hills Cop Evidently, maverick members of Detroit favour a surprisingly restrained sneaker. For all his loudmouth ways and epic amounts of profanity, the adidas Country is a muted choice, but Axel Foley’s outfits have aged pretty well for the leading character in an ’80s blockbuster and this shoe got plenty of show in both the film and the extensive promotional materials around it. source Sneaker: Nike Cortez Movie: Forrest Gump Forrest isn’t disappointed by this offering from Jenny, as the lovable dimwit is gifted with a pair of classic leather Cortez. Rather than gangbanging and throwing up his set or hatching schemes à la Costanza, he actually opts to run in the dual density masterpiece — as was the original intent of the shoe. Salutes to the filmmakers for tapping up the archives to get the original packaging too. source Sneaker: Nike Air Trainer III Movie: Batman When your brand makes Batman’s batboots, you know you’ve made it. Batman’s outfit shocked a few puritans around the release of Tim Burton’s interpretation – many seemed stuck on Adam West-style smedium, stretchy attire. To accompany the new bulletproof Batman, he got special editions of Bo Jackson’s Air Trainer III (originally called the Air Trainer SC) as part of his lofty footwear. source Sneaker: Puma Suede Movie: Beat Street PUMA officially endorsed ‘Beat Street’s big budget ‘Wildstyle’ bite, but it was effective product placement. This film is beyond corny. When the film’s protagonists weren’t being hassled by the man, we could see them break in a railway station, clad in PUMA gear. That had a vast effect on a hip-hop audience hungry for anything rap-related, where the shoe remains deified as a hip-hop icon. source Sneaker: Reebok Alien Stomper Movie: Aliens While Ripley had to get over the trauma of her daughter aging and dying during her inadvertently lengthy hypersleep, she got some good future sneakers after that extended snooze. The Alien Stomper (originally promoted as the Aliens Fighter) was a Velcro-aided sci-fi hi-top reinterpretation of old favorites like the BB series in a killer colorway. These toured as a promo “prop” and went on sale a few years later in a slightly altered form. source Sneaker: Nike Sky Force Hi Movie: The Goonies Data from the Goonies was the racial stereotype we aspired to be. The plastic false teeth on a spring? Awesome. Giving the Asian kid the wacky inventor role probably wouldn’t pass today, but without Data’s madcap inventions, the Goonies would probably have been subject to execution-style slayings via the Fratellis. Data’s “Slick Shoes” — a tricked out pair of Nike Sky Force Hi save the day with their oil-releasing properties. source Sneaker: Onitsuka Tiger Tai Chi Movie: Game of Death Bruce Lee is synonymous with Onitsuka’s slimline masterpiece — Quentin Tarantino even riffs on it in ‘Kill Bill’ — and Kobe used it as inspiration for a colorway of his Zoom Kobe V. Before Wiz, Bruce popularized black and yellow, but in his garbled and weirdly edited final flick, we see him in similarly colored adidas racing flats and some low-cut vulc adidas shoes too. It’s inconsistent but effective, adding to the jumbled Bruce Lee mythos. source Sneaker: Nike Air Max Triax Movie: Space Jam Sorry, the internet doesn’t need another tract on why the ‘Space Jam’ Air Jordan XIs are amazing. If you don’t know by now, you’re beyond hope. So as a break from the norm, we’ll look at another shoe in the same film — the Air Max Triax that Michael Jordan is wearing when the bulldog leaps on him. There was no way that this film wasn’t going to rank pretty highly in this list, and it might contain the greatest cinematic SMU ever. source Sneaker: Nike Air Mag Movie: Back To the Future Part II When people talk about the second ‘Back to the Future’ film, they talk about Marty’s self-fastening Nikes before any talk of the plot. These caused an audible gasp in theatres worldwide, and the speckles, the aqua and grey colorway and the hi-top looks were eerily prescient of what gets kids hyped in 2011. We’re still waiting on a release for this shoe and several Nike Air and Zoom homages in recent years just up that sense of anticipation. source Sneaker: Nike Air Command Force Movie: White Men Can’t Jump Woody Harrelson’s Billy Hoyle uses whiteness as part of the hustle, but his sneakers are pretty serious. Sidney rocked the fine Flight Lites in this film too, but David Robinson’s vast Air Pressure aided shoe is a focal point. We see homages and we’ve even seen that underrated heel pattern on the heel of a few other silhouettes, but this model’s never had a retro — presumably, retroing Pressure technology would an expensive project — as only a cluster of cash-strapped ironists would buy a pair. source

The Biggest Streaks in Sports Posted: 08 Jul 2011 11:21 PM PDT This is a brief reminder of the athletes and teams with the longest series – of victories, participation, points scored … We are inspired by Novak Djokovic’s winning streak from the beginning of 2011. Enjoy! Rocky Marciano, Boxing In the period from 1947 to 1956 he has 49 wins. Jimmy Wilde (103), Pedro Carrasco (93), Sugar Ray Robinson (91) and Julio Cesar Chavez (81) had a longer winning streak, but no one ever came out of the ring undefeated like an American of Italian origin manage to do. source Wilt Chamberlain, NBA In the period from 1961 to 1963 he had 126 consecutive games with more than 20 points scored. Chamberlain was the terror of the opponent’s basket, after all, in the one game he gave 100 points, but so long streak of deluge opponents, no one did. In one season he had averaged 50 points scored per game. source Lance Armstrong, Bicycling In the period from 1999 to 2005 he had 7 wins in a row. There is still a dispute relating to whether an American was straight or not. Until proven otherwise, he is one of the best athletes of all time and the triumph of the most famous and most difficult race (Tour de France) – it is marvelous. source Sebastien Loeb, WRC Since 2005 he has 7 world title. Fantastic French is dominant in driving. Even when behind him he hadn’t have company, but he drove in his own team. Yes, Michael Schumacher has also won seven trophies in Formula 1, but some of his triumph could be put objection because they were not completely fair. source Michael Phelps, Swimming In 2010 Michael has 8 wins in a row in the Olympic finals. Phelps is the best swimmer of all time. Of course, his gold medal in the 100 meter butterfly victory is one of the most controversial of all time. The official timer Omega, who is a sponsor of Michael Phelps, didn’t publish photos from the final race emediatly. A year later is acknowledged that the Serbian swimmer Milorad Cavic touched the wall first, but with not enough power. source Alexander Karelin, Wrestling In the period from 1987 to 2000, he was undefeated in international competitions. Foreign media have called him The Beast and The Experiment, but he did not heed it while he beat anyone who stood on the mat. Last six years of this series he hasn’t lost even a single point during the fights. Three times Olympic and world champion nine times. source Edwin Moses, Athletics In the period from 1977 to 1987, he had 122 victories in races at 400m hurdles. Twice he became Olympic champion. Ten years Edwin didn’t finished second. source Francisco Gento, Football In the period from 1956 to 1960 he has 5 European Championship titles with Real Madrid. Spanish football plater is the only player in history to win six continental club champions title. source Esther Vergeer, Wheelchair Tennis Since 2003, she has 413 consecutive wins. Esther Vergeer (29) from the Netherlands won 37 Grand Slam singles titles and five titles at the Paralympic Games, including the doubles competition. It is considered the most dominant professional sportist of all time. source Emil Zátopek, Athletics In the period from 1948 to 1951, Emil had 75 victories on long-racing tracks. Man nicknamed Czech locomotive won three gold medals at the 1952nd Olympics in Helsinki. source Novak Djokovic, Tennis In the period from 2010 to 2011 Novak has 43 (+3) wins in a row. Assigned to Guillermo Vilas had a longer winning streak, but his victories were not against such a significant players, and are accomplished at the time when tennis was not as prevalent as now. After all, McEnroe (42 victories at the beginning of 1986) admitted that his series is less significant than Novak’s 41 at the start of the 2011th because he hadn’t won the Grand Slam. In addition, why not count those three at Hopman Cup? source Jahangir Khan, Squash In the period from 1981 to 1986, he has 555 victories in a row. This is the longest winning streak in the known history of sports if the matches number account. source Sergio Garcia, Golf Since 2000. has 48 Grand Slam tournaments in a row. Spanish is only in this century who participated in all Grand Slam tournaments. source Chris Dudley, NBA In 1990, he has missed 13 free throws in a row. Dudley was lost in 2010 election race for governor of Oregon. It is said that no one wanted to vote for the man who performed free throws worse than the voters themselves. source Joe Dimaggio, Baseball Since 1941. has dropped opponent 56 games in a row. Perhaps international fame would never have gained had he not been married to the most famous actress of all time. There was no need to read that he was only one of her husbands who have been coming to leave flowers on her grave to know how much he had style – it was enough to see any photo or footage and it can be seen in the game. How is this impressive record for us, who do not follow baseball, enough is the fact that the next player on the list had 44 ejections. source Brett Favre, NFL From 1992 to 2010 was a starter in 321 consecutive game. Have you watched any games or a movie whose theme is American football? Then you know how hard is to survive so long. Cal Ripken played 2632 games in a row, but as a baseball player is much easier to avoid injury. So here’s Ripken in a footnote, and Favre in the subtitle. source Boston Celtics, NBA In the period from 1959 to 1966 has 8 titles in a row. Celtics have won in that period 11 titles in 13 years, which may be an more impressive figure. But since the word here is about the series in the sport, this is special. Red Auerbach was the coach, Bob Cousy was a playmaker and Bill Russell was the main player. source Brazil, Football In the period from 1934 to 2010 they have 19 World Championships in a row. Brazil is the only team that participated in all tournaments.
