Dancing House |
Here's a building that should really get your attention when walking pass it. The Dancing House is considered as one of the more real controversial buildings in Prague. The DH was actually designed by a great architect from California, which only proves that he had done some type of hallucinogen while designing it. |

Robot Building |
The Bank of Asia is a very famous building in Bangkok. It was made way back in 1985, and its robotic appearance is just a symbol of the modernization of banking. It also has the ability to transform into a mega-robot. So, if Godzilla ever decided to show his green face in the land of Bangkok, they would have to fight! |
|
Ripley's Building |
If you saw this picture for the first time, you'd probably thought that it was hit by a massive earthquake. But it wasn't. In true fashion of the Ripley Legacy, it was built to reflect the odd 1812 earthquake that measured 8.0 on the rick. The building has now become one of the most photographed in the world because of it. |
|
The Wilson Hall |
This somewhat modernize building was actually built between 1971 and 1974. Its unique design gives the Wilson Hall a great sense of structure, and a prominent landmark for the skyline. The building provides big laboratories, offices, and supports space for over 1500 scientists. And it houses all kinds of strange experiments. |
|
135 Degree Angle |
This bizarre house really doesn't have an official name, but it does have a 135 degree angle. So that's what we're going to call it. Unfortunately, the only info we have about this house is that it was built in China or Japan. And that it has a silly pink roof. And if you look real close, you'll notice that its on a 135 degree damn angle. |
|
Hotel Sofitel |
This hotel's unique design was directly inspired by the traditional temples in Japan. The Tokyo Sofitel has over 72 rooms, and 11 suites with 3 non-smoking floors. And 5 meeting rooms that includes high-tech boardrooms. Please realize that you have to sell your soul in order to step foot inside this amazing hotel. |
|
Triangle Building |
We wonder what type of work goes on inside this kind of a building. The unofficial Triangle Building is just a wonder to look at and to ponder over. But, can this be one of the evil headquarters for Scientology or Starbucks? Does this building have triangle bathrooms? There's so many damn questions! |
|
The Astra Haus |
The strange building is actually a brewery in Hamburg, Germany. The floors can move up or down on its skinny column core. As of now, the unique building has been destroyed. One of its more famous beer brands was recently bought by a big refreshment corporation. And that beer brand was called Astra. |
|
Upside Downer |
Take a journey into the unknown with a building called Wonder Works. Its central Florida's only upside down attraction. And an amusement park for your mind, and your stoner friends. This odd building has over 100 wacky interactive exhibits for your entire family to experience. But make sure you free your weed before coming. |
|
Crooked House |
You know that your looking at a real building right? The Crooked House was built in 2004 as an addition at a popular shopping center, and is a major tourist attraction in Sopot, Poland. We just wonder what happens when someone who's under a controlled substance sees this building for the first time in their life. |

Mapfre quere-te controlar
Posted in Tecnologia, choutos on October 17th, 2007Por fim comprei um carro, finalmente optei por um Ford Focus 1.8 125Cv Flexifuel (Bioethanol/Gasolina), por isso do meio ambiente... e porque me saía mais barato, é claro :P.
E como sempre nestes casos toca contratar umha póliza de seguros.
Comparando preços e condições passei por Mapfre, pela minha idade a cousa disparava-se e a comercial, ao ver-me a cara de susto, ofereceu-me a nova campanha para a gente nova: Demonstrando que es um condutor responsável tens umha póliza mais barata mas... como demonstras isto? Instalam-che um GPS no carro!
O que monitorizam nom sei que é (ela tamém nom soubo explicar-me exactamente), suponho que as velocidades e cousas assim, mas o que podem fazer mete medo... É como o Grande Irmão Orwelliano em versom automobilística.
Imaginade que lhe da ao governo pequeno-imperial por ponher isto de série em todo quanto automóvel há com a escusa de controlar o terrorismo...
Que nom, que somos inocentes "por defeito" e nom ao revés.
chuzame - Ameaçam com ataques aos interesses de Reganosa
Posted in Ecologia, Economia, Repressom on October 6th, 2007
Um extenso comunicado, recebido nas redacçons de Vieiros e da Rádio Galega, assume a colocaçom dum artefacto explosivo na paróquia de Mehá, em Mugardos, no passado 24 de Setembro, e enquadra-o na 'luita popular contra Reganosa'. Os autores ou autoras da comunicaçom exponhem as suas razons para opor-se à grande infraestrutura e ameaçam empresas e pessoas ligadas ao negócio energético.O comunicado remata com a legenda 'a Terra é nossa e nom de Reganosa'.
Dizem os supostos autores da sabotagem que 'a terminal de gás liquado nom é umha infraestrutura necessária para a Galiza', e entendem que 'o povo deve de ser consultado sobre as grandes decisons que lhe afectam'.
O mercado da energia.
Numha análise bastante extensa da localizaçom da factoria, o comunicado diz que a empresa é apenas estratégica para o negócio gasista integrado por Fenosa e Endesa, 'baixo a direcçom do governo de Madrid.' Continuam a afirmar que 'a Galiza nom pode ter independência energética real sem umhas bases de regimem energético próprias'. Denunciam aliás que marcha do país mais do 40% da energia produzida, sem compensaçom de nenhum tipo. Boa parte deste gás, continuam, 'será utilizado para produzir electricidade por umha multinacional americana (em referência a Alúmina), que a enviará fora do país.'
Ameaças.
O comunicado remata em tom ameaçante: 'o sucedido é um exemplo doloroso de que diante das razons de estado e das enormes influências dos grandes grupos económicos, as nossas discretas vidas, os nossos alforges carregados de preciosas razons e de emocionadas palavras, valem bem pouco. Eles já falárom, falárom a única linguagem que dominam, a imposiçom, a prepotência e a repressom. Agora toca-nos a nós.'
Ameijeiras repete-se.
No entanto, o delegado do governo espanhol repetiu as palavras de rigor, e adjudicou a acçom de Mugardos aos grupos independentistas que atacárom em meses passados interesses imobiliários na costa.
