This video shows the powerful preservatives, additives and other substances used by the fast-food chain McDonald’s in the products they offer consumers, but particularly stress the strength of the Big Mac and the traditional chips.

The experiment in question are entered into several glass jars some of the hamburgers that we can purchase at McDonald’s, the so-called Fourth-pound, the Big Mac, Chiken McGrill, etc.. It also introduces two types of chips, which typically offer classical and other extra-sized very coarse. Do not lose detail on the process taking place in the video, which shows the status of these foods after one, two, three and up to 10 weeks after they are introduced into the glass.

The prize for conservation will carry the chips, after spending 10 weeks, have an appearance that one might say “edible”, although much doubt that this is so.

As for hamburgers, the more resistant it was the standard bearer of the chain because it was the last to show signs of decomposition relevant. Sin duda, este vídeo hace pensarse más el acudir a comer a McDonald´s. Undoubtedly, this video does think more go to eat at McDonald’s.

Wingsuit Flying

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Wingsuit flying is the art of flying the human body through the air using a special jumpsuit, called a wingsuit, that shapes the human body into an airfoil which can create lift. The wingsuit creates the airfoil shape with fabric sewn between the legs and under the arms. It is also called a birdman suit..

Watch Loïc Jean-Albert as he performs various stunts dangerously close to a mountain wall while wingsuit flying. It’s one of the seldom seen extreme sports but now wing suit flying will feature for the first time in the 2008 Chamonix Winter Outdoor Games.

Dancing Parrot

Snowball is a medium sulphur crested Eleanora cockatoo and he loves to dance and sing. He loves the Back Street Boys. No one taught Snowball to dance…he just heard this song and suddenly felt like dancing. We’re all jealous because he can outdance each one of us…nobody likes a show off! When he’s really in the mood, he dances and sings. And at the end of the performance he takes a bow or two or twenty!! Enjoy the show.

Google image search: Extra Large images

I had the pleasant surprise to discover, this morning, a new feature in the gooogle image search: the option to filter results for “Extra Large images” (along with the already classic large, medium and small images). Digital photography – the megapixels – begis to leave marks…

What does 40,000 lbs of cocaine look like?

Coast Guard Video: The Coast Guard offloaded more than 40,000 pounds of cocaine worth an estimated $500 million from cutter Sherman here April 23, 2007, seized by the crew in three busts near Central America in February and March.

The offload will include approximately 38,000 pounds of cocaine seized in the largest cocaine bust in maritime history.

The Ecuadorian-flagged fishing vessel Don Juan K was approached in the Pacific Ocean Feb. 19 off the coast of Mexico while allegedly offloading cocaine into “go-fast” (cigarette-style boat) boats. The fishing vessel’s crew apparently set fire to Don Juan K in an attempt to destroy the evidence and flee in the go-fasts. Sherman’s crew stopped the go-fasts and recovered about 900 pounds of cocaine as Don Juan K sank. The 14 crew members are being processed for further legal action.

The 330-foot Panamanian-flagged motor vessel Gatun was interdicted in the Pacific Ocean Mar. 18 off the coast of Panama while heading north toward the United States. Sherman’s crew stopped and boarded the vessel and found 765 bales of cocaine weighing approximately 38,000 pounds in two shipping containers. Gatun was escorted back to Panama and its 14 crew members processed for further legal action.

Sherman’s crew stopped and boarded a small stateless go-fast in the Pacific Ocean Mar. 25 off the coast of Panama following a short chase, in which, the go-fast attempted to flee at a high rate of speed. Approximately 2000 pounds of cocaine was found aboard the go-fast and its four crew members were processed for further legal action.

The Coast Guard works in close coordination with Joint Interagency Task Force South, U.S. Attorney’s office, Panama Express South, DEA, FBI, Bureau of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and Customs and Border Protection, as well as the Departments of Justice, State and Homeland Security on counter drug operations in the Pacific Ocean near Central and South America. These drug smuggling routes are some of the most active, yielding roughly 70% of the cocaine seized annually by the Coast Guard.

The Coast Guard has kept about two million pounds of cocaine from reaching America’s streets since 1973.

Teacher Suspended After Video Appears on YouTube

A high school teacher in Gilbert, Arizona has been placed on administrative leave, but the reasons for this are unclear.

A video of the teacher performing a cheerleader routine in front of her class has been posted on YouTube. This video, shot on a student’s cell phone, is believed to be the reason. Some in the school community don’t think it’s a big deal, while others are concerned.

• MyFoxPhoenix has the report.

World War II in colors

For so many years, historians and casual observers alike have observed the events of World War II through faded black and white images. What most people do not know is the fact that quite a large portion of the WWII was shot using color film! However, it wasn’t until recently that a lot of the photographs and motion picture footage was de-classified by the U.S. Government.

Amazing HQ pictures from WW II. Just click on thumbs. Enjoy!
