Big Gun of WW2 Revealed (Dora and Gustav)
The immense weapon you can see have existed. Moreover, there were two of these incredible guns. It has been manufactured by Krupp for the third Reich during WW-2. Hitler wanted “a gun able to pierce a meter of stell, seven meters of concrete, or thirty meters of dense earth”.
Three calibers could have been used: 700, 800 and even 1000 mm! Even now, we can hardly imagine how we could manufacture the enormous 290 tonnen barrel, an huge steel pipe, 32 meters long. Monobloc trunion craddles, on which are put the trunion pins of the barrel, are as tall as a 4-floor building. It was ready for action in late 1942.

Transformers 2007 - The Optimus Prime
I wrote about the new look of [Optimus Prime] in the latest Transformers movie sometimes ago on my other site (AhSoon.Net). I was shocked and could not belive they changed my Transformers hero into such a complicated look. I still hope that news was like some kind of rumous over the net.
Now that the new design is likely to be confirmed as the latest Traser Trailer is released. We could see it from a short scene, though still not so clear…

What The World Eats
Germany’s GEO magazine published a comprehensive nutrition story based on Peter Menzel and Faith D’Aluisio’s most recent book, Hungry Planet: What The World Eats.
Essentially, they’ve traveled the world to meet “average” families and report on their dietary habits. Apart from being thematically intriguing from a journalistic point of view, it’s also quite awesome from a visual perspective. Basically, Peter has taken photos of the families with their weekly food totals.
Families from Australia, Chad—including a refugee family from Darfur, Sudan—China, Ecuador, Germany, Greenland, Kuwait, Okinawa, Poland, the USA, and others are featured in large portraits, each with a week’s worth of food.
This one is a representative from the US, and here are some others (below the fold). A whole ton of other pictures can be found here.
