原子力艇世界 TOP 10 Top 10 Nuclear Powered Military Machines
原子力艇世界 TOP 10 ゆっくりご覧あれ!!
Nuclear powered machines can stay under water for decades or can stay over it for even longer, without ever needing for refueling any soon. The only military vision left unfulfilled would be of a nuclear-powered aircraft because of the problems related to shielding of the crew from radiations. Nevertheless, aircraft carriers and submarines are big enough to do that effectively. Today, we take a look at the world’s top 10 nuclear-powered military machines.

芸術的センスな車の修理 40 Worst DIY Car Repairs [awesome Pics]
これらは修理という域は超えてますね、どちらかって言うと改造じゃなくて創造ですね。発想の転換で転換しすぎちゃったかも!
Some things you should always try to fix yourself: your squeaky door, your bikini line, your awkward smile that creeps everyone out. But when it comes to your car, you better know what you're doing, because you're not only taking your life into your hands, you're also embarrassing the heck out of your friend in the passenger seat. Heed these examples.

2010年モラン肖像画賞
8月10日、2010年ダグ・モラン全国肖像画賞受賞者が発表された。
ダグ・モラン氏はメルボルン暗黒街のモラン一族とは関係がなく、極貧から身を起こし、不動産業とナーシング・ホームで財をなした人物。モラン・ナーシング・ホームの施設のロゴはダグの妻グレタの肖像が図案化されている。2010年の肖像画賞には、ブリスベンのアーチスト、マイケル・ザブロス氏が自分の娘を描いた作品で賞金$150,000を獲得した。同氏の作品は、「フィービは死んだ/マクイーン」と表題され、イギリスのファッション・デザイナー、故アレグザンダー・マクイーン氏のデザインしたドクロを描いたスカーフに包まれて少女が横たわっている。ザブロス氏は、「親になるまで死を恐れたことがなかった。しかし、子供を持った今、夜の闇の中で眠くなるまで横たわっていると、子供のことが浮かんでくる。子供達が悲劇的な死を遂げ、引き離されていくという考えに取り憑かれる。自分のことより子供のことが気がかりになる」と、作品の動機を語っている。
Michael Zavros is one of Australia’s most significant younger realist painters. He is fascinated by beauty and his subjects include leaping and falling horses, men in suits, high fashion, classical mythology and French neo-classical architecture. Every single one of his art pieces looks amazing !Just keep in mind that all the images published here are paintings !

ナイスな、人動力車購入するならドル安の今だ! HumanCar – Human Powered Low Mass Vehicle
もともとはチャールズ・サミュエル教授が4年前に設計したもので座席の前にあるハンドルを引き電気を生成、バッテリーに蓄電し二つのモーターを作動する仕組みになっています。
HumanCar is hand-cranked low mass vehicle, the HumanCar was originally designed by Professor Charles Samuel Greenwood about four years ago. Occupants generate electricity by pulling on small handles located inside the car, similar to a rowing machine. However, if they need to pick up the pace a pair of electric motors running on battery power cut in.

日本発 世界初のハイテク歯ブラシ Solar Toothbrushes Kills Your Oral Bacteria Without Using Toothpaste
日本発。世界初のハイテク歯ブラシ半導体+ソーラーパネルのダブルパワー驚くほど高い歯垢除去を実現。新発想の次世代歯ブラシ登場Soladey-3※世界11カ国で特許出願中 水に濡れた半導体と、ソーラーパネルに光が当たると、電子(e-)が口の中に移動します。その電子(e-)が歯垢中のバイ菌が作った酸と反応し、歯垢を取りやすくします。
Brushing your teeth is a regular ritual for most people, and normally that involves both a toothbrush and toothpaste to remove the gunk that builds up on our teeth and gums. The solar toothbrush looks to eliminate the paste, harnessing the power of the sun to kill off all that nasty bacteria.The Shiken Soladey-J3X had a small solar panel near its base, which creates a stream of electrons that are emitted the head and react with acid in your mouth. Developers Dr. Kunio Komiyama and Dr. Gerry Uswak say that this results in "complete destruction of bacterial cells."My concern is that bacteria isn't the only thing brushing takes care of. Most toothpastes include fluoride to fight cavities, and compounds to help remove any plaque deposits. If you get rid of the paste, will these problems become worse?

ホラー映画の脇役たち! Grim For Horror Film
ホラー映画の定義付けなど今更しようとは思いませんはるかに皆さんのほうがお解りになってるからです。
Horror films are unsettling movies that strive to elicit the emotions of fear, disgust, panic, alarm, shock and horror from viewers through the means of macabre and the supernatural, thus frequently overlapping with the fantasy and science fiction genres. Horrors also frequently overlap with the thriller genre. Horror films deal with the viewer’s nightmares, vulnerability, hidden worst fears, revulsions and terror of the unknown. Although a good deal of it is about the supernatural, any film containing a plot about morbidity, disease/virus, surrealism and involve gruesome images may be termed “horror”; However, if the film lacks numerous scares or horror content, but has any of those elements then it could be categorised as a thriller.

「銃」と「薔薇」 Guns and Roses by Guido Mocafico
今回紹介させていただく作品はすべてグゥイド・モカフィコの作品でありますが「ガン」シリーズと「薔薇」シリーズ別々のシリーズを融合させて創り上げたものだそうですが「ガン」と「薔薇」、「技術」と「自然」、「戦争」と「愛」、「恐怖」と「喜び」、自然と人類の結びつきを模索しているということを感じとれるのではないでしょうか。
*〈Guido Mocafico(グゥイド・モカフィコ)〉1962年、スイス生まれのイタリア人フォトグラファー(Still Lifeの専門家)。ロンドン、パリを活動拠点に、ファッション誌や企業広告の分野で活躍中。アーティストとしても有名で、写真展「万物の肖像」や3冊セットの写真集「Venenum」を出版するなど精力的。クライアントには、BULGARI、DIOR、GUCCI、HERMES、HARRY WINSTON、YVES SAINT LAURENT等、メジャーブランドの名が並ぶ。
Guns & Roses unites two bodies of work by Guido Mocafico. His ‘Guns’ series was completed between 2006 - 2008, while ‘Roses’ was shot in 2009. The combination of the two series is intended to raise parallels like: technology versus nature, war versus love, and fear versus pleasure. However both series explore mankind’s intervention with nature.

芸術的なシューズ"集”! Weird and Funny Shoes
これはもう実用的な域を超えて芸術の域に達してますよね。こんな発想私は持ちえておりません。無尽蔵に出てくるアイデアに敬服します、はい。
These shoes are fun, the real works of art, but whether they are really comfortable? They may create blisters or foot in them get stinky and burned? Is it really comfortable to walk on nails or hooves? But the fact is that here there are practical footwear – listen to your music – wear and go for a walk, and the music will follow you in the rhythm of steps. Flip flops soft as carpet. You have not brought a bathing suit – so what, you have it in sandals! Swimming in the sea and you are in the action “Finding Nemo” – do not take your shoes off, because you will swim faster in your shoes with fins. If you are not very good at math you can see the solution to your pain – shoes with abacus… soon with a calculator, clock and weather! Would you like to have shoes like Lady Gaga in her video – Take a closer look this perfect model. You can see the shoes 2 in 1, shoes “transformers” can serve as a great toy for your child, where you can cultivate flowers, and soon it will come out and model with the aquarium! The ideas are truly inexhaustible!

失われたアメリカ写真集(廃墟等) Abandoned America Monuments
廃墟ブームだからというわけではないのですが失われたアメリカのモニュメント、スクラップなど探し写真におさめたブログがありましたのでここで紹介しましょう。いくつかの街、カリフォルニア辺りに放棄された建物や看板、スクラップなどの写真です。なかには第二次世界大戦時中の捕虜(日本兵、ドイツ兵)を収容し尋問するのに使われた建物や元空軍基地の廃墟など不吉で不気味なものもあります。廃墟マニアでなくても楽しめると思います。
The photos here are taken by Troy Paiva as a project to document the lost monuments of America. The photos have a sinister and eerie feel to them which is seems like the look that Paiva was looking to capture. The collection of photos includes a large number of streets and abandoned buildings around California. Some of the most noted photographs is an abandoned building near Byron hot springs which was used as a place for interrogation for the German and Japanese prisoners who were captured during the war and a building in a place known as Impossible City, which is so called because it was impossible to track the place. The photos also have various abandoned neon signs and has a beautiful abandoned café located in Cartago, California. The abandoned dormitories at Castle Air Force Base are remarkable and almost put across the air that was when the war was going on.

100年前の心霊写真! The Spirit Photographs of William Hope
心霊写真研究の先駆者ウイリアム・ホープ氏所蔵の心霊写真と思われるものが公開されました。当時は現在のフォトショップのような写真を加工する技術はまだまだ稚拙で加工したものはすぐに露見しました。氏が所蔵していたものは加工した形跡がなく不思議な写真とされていますその中からいくつかをご紹介いたしましょう。
These are spiritual photographs taken by William Hope (1863-1933). Of course, they are manipulated but it's still very interesting to see manipulated photos that were created before the Photoshop era.

パルクールと忍者は共通項を感じられる。 Superb Parkour
パルクール(Parkour,PK)(移動の芸術) とは、特別な道具を使うことなく効率的に障害物を越えることを目的としたフランス発祥のスポーツである。ただし、パルクールを芸術やパフォーマンスアート、「移動するための技術」とする考え方もあり、確固とした定義はされていない。パルクールは特別な道具を使わず自らの肉体だけで障害を跳び越え、攀じ登り、またその上から飛び降りながら移動する移動技術体系である。その性質上エクストリームスポーツに分類されることが多い。しかし、パルクールは「The Art of Movement」、「l'art du deplacement」とも呼ばれ、エクストリームスポーツではないという考え方も存在する。また、スポーツや哲学などの幅広い側面を持っている。ただし、パルクールにおけるスポーツという言葉は競技性を含まない。パルクールにおける障害物は壁やレールなど人工物が多く、その練習は主に都市部で行われる。パルクールの実践者はトレーサー (traceur) と呼ばれる。パルクールをする前には入念な準備運動やイメージトレーニングが必要とされる。またパルクールを始めてまもない時にいきなり高度な技術にチャレンジすることはとても危険であり場合によっては死に至る可能性も否定できない。よって初心者は安全な技からチャレンジしていき、だんだんと上達していくのが好ましい。

ユーサフ・カーシュ(Yousuf Karsh、1908年12月23日 - 2002年7月13日)は、トルコ生まれのカナダの写真家。ウィンストン・チャーチルなど、多くの著名人のポートレート写真を撮影したことで有名。 トルコのマルディンで生まれたカーシュは、アルメニア人虐殺を避けて14歳の時にシリアに移る。その二年後、写真家であった叔父を頼り、カナダのケベック州シェルブルックに移住。短期間学校に通った後、叔父のスタジオを手伝うようになる。彼の才能を見込んだ叔父は、1928年にカーシュをボストンの写真家ジョン・ギャロの元に弟子入りさせる。
Yousuf or Josuf (his given Armenian name was Hovsep) Karsh was born in Mardin, a city in the eastern Ottoman Empire (present Turkey). He grew up during the Armenian Genocide where he wrote, “I saw relatives massacred; my sister died of starvation as we were driven from village to village.” At the age of 14, he fled with his family to Syria to escape persecution. Two years later, his parents sent Yousuf to live with his uncle George Nakash, a photographer in Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada. Karsh briefly attended school there and assisted in his uncle’s studio. Nakash saw great potential in his nephew and in 1928 arranged for Karsh to apprentice with portrait photographer John Garo in Boston, Massachusetts, United States. His brother, Malak Karsh, was also a photographer famous for the image of logs floating down the river on the Canadian one dollar bill.

悲しき少年兵 Boys – Warriors
この少年兵たちはモハマド・アダン12歳とアフマド・ハサン15歳 ソマリア軍に属します。ソマリアの子供たちはこの年齢くらいでは手にカラシニコフを持ち食料はなく栄養不良ぎみ住居は半壊状態、この様な環境でも垣間見せる屈託のない子供らしい笑顔、みなさんはこれを見られてどうお感じになられましたでしょうか?
These boys do not play war, they were real soldiers with real guns. Mohamed Adan Udas is 12 years old, and Ahmed Hasan 15. They are part of the Somalian army and fighting in Mogadishu. Somalia army recruit boys who were older than 9 years. And instead of, like their peers around the world, have a carefree childhood, these boys grow up with Kalashnikov. Skinny, malnourished, living in ruins, and grow up too soon. Is there any hope that these children will one day live normal life, unfortunately, does not depend on them.
