Mercedes Invisible Car

“ What Mercedes has done here is cover one side of its F-Cell Hydrogen car with a sheet of colored LEDs, while on the other side mounted a Canon 5D Mark II camera for filming. It then gives pedestrians the effect of being able to see right through the car. The trick was filmed so Mercedes can make a point about its environmentally-friendly F-Cell car, which produces no nasty emissions (just water vapor). Thanks to the fuel-cell technology on board, the vehicle can turn hydrogen into the electricity needed to drive around 240 miles.”

Building covered in old clothes

This unique building was temporarily covered in ten thousand items of discarded clothing in Brick Lane in East London. The idea came from Marks and Spencer to raise awareness on the amount of clothing that the UK citizens throw out every five minutes. Close to ten thousand, that’s how much.

Marks and Spencer’s idea is simple, instead of throwing out old or unwanted clothes M&S wanted everyone to bring their old unwanted clothes to their stores where it would be deposited in a ‘shwop’ drop box. What’s a ‘shwop’ drop box? Well the clothing you drop off will be passed on to their partners, Oxfam, an international non-profit organization that help people in poverty.

Discipline, Mummy Bear-style

The British newspaper "Daily Mail" has published a series of superb photos by a professional photographer "David Gardner" in the zoo Samfirpol in Ukraine.

Quite what the little chap had done to incur his mother’s wrath remains a mystery.
But the chances are that he won’t do it again.
This astonishing series of pictures illustrates how, in the world of the brown bear, there are no agonised disputes over corporal punishment of children.

Perhaps THIS will teach you a lesson: She picks him up by the scruff of the neck and swings him around

How many times have I told you not to do that: She pins him in the corner for a dressing down

First, the mother glares angrily at her son as he stands a few feet away looking guilty and sheepish.

Within seconds he is backed into a corner with a terrified expression as she roars her disapproval.

Shortly afterwards he finds himself  airborne after she seizes him by the scruff of the neck and propels him from side to side.

However, the fierce encounter at Simferopol Zoo in the Ukraine comes to a peaceful conclusion when Mummy, who weighs the best part of 550lb, gently hugs him to her chest to reassure him that all is forgiven.

A word in your ear: The crestfallen cub approaches his mother

There, there: He gets a bear-hug to show the row is over
