Top 10 Photos of the Week To me its far less about the photo and far more about where the photographer was sitting “A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.” – - Sir Winston Churchill To me its far less about the photo and far more about where the photographer was sitting “A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.” – - Sir Winston Churchill You can avoid reality, but you cannot avoid the consequences of avoiding reality Hey Zebra, why the long face “Oh, there it is!” Cows are the new cats When life imitates art… or takes place simultaneously to art… or, how in the hell did he do that?

The elaborate sculpture is comprised of multiple “tours” that move pingpong balls through neighborhoods, historical locations, and iconic symbols of San Francisco, all recreated with a little glue, some toothpicks, and an incredible amount of ingenuity. He admits in the video that there are several toothpick sculptures even larger than his, but none has the unique kinetic components he’s constructed. Via his website Weaver estimates he’s spent over 3,000 hours on the project, and the toothpicks have been sourced from around the world: I have used different brands of toothpicks depending on what I am building. See the sculpture for yourself at the Tinkering Studio through the end of June.

Perfect Girl Sweetest Girl I Clean Today Fridge Love I Don’t Know … Offender Tracking Information System (OTIS) What is OTIS? What are the terms and conditions of its use? OTIS is intended to offer information to the public that can then be verified through the Michigan Department of Corrections (MDOC), Michigan Courts, the Michigan State Police or other law enforcement agencies. OTIS does not exclusively display information on convicted felons. Clicking on the Michigan Compiled Law number (MCL #) will take you to the Michigan Legislature Web site where the actual statute the offender was convicted of violating is presented. If the sentence information displays "Attempt" after the offense, refer to Michigan Compiled Law 750.92 Attempt to Commit Crime for additional conviction and penalty information. The Michigan Legislature requires the MDOC to keep offender information on OTIS for three years after discharge. The Department of Corrections and the State of Michigan offer this information without any express or implied warranty as to its accuracy.
How to grow a Rainbow Rose, Naturally In 2004, two dutch companies, River Flowers and F.J. Zandbergen, experimented and successfully grew a rose that had its petals rainbow colored. As petals get their nourishment through stem, the idea is to split the stem into several channels and dip each one in a different colored water. This way all the colors will be drawn by the stem into petals and resultant rose will have all the colors in it. The same method can be applied to other flowers especially to Chrysanthemum and Hydrangea. You can use the same idea to color any flower, anyway you like.
