23rd July 2012 Racing Brides

Sports or running shoes certainly don't make a good combination when the 30 ladies were wearing them, teaming with their long white wedding gowns. But none of that seem important to the brides who took part in a very unusual, annual 'Bridal Race' in central Belgrade, capital of the Republic of Yugoslavia.

The winner and 2 runners-up of the race received numerous awards, including the wedding gowns they had chosen to race in.

I see one grandma bride too! Good for her, not only game for love, but game for sport; what's more, able to run! Were the bridegrooms cheering them on, or were they waiting in the pub getting drunk?

23rd July 2012 Robot Spy & MaMa Bear

To get close to Polar Bears is not just a very dangerous task but near impossible for the 'paparazzi' wild life photographers, especially when they wish to obtain photos, or video, in their natural habitat. But they are able to equipped themselves now with the help of a robotized camera, able to capture spectacular close-up shots as demonstrated shots below.

The camera is camouflaged inside some sort of a chassis that simulates a snowball, can move at the speed of 65 kilometres per hour and able to resist temperatures of up to 30 degrees under zero.

But MaMa Bear in this story, extremely determined to keep her privacy, was not at all pleased that any suspicious object was anywhere near her baby, immediately hurled herself upon it with very angry looks on her face, as if grumbling 'Even in the North Pole, they won't let you live in peace!'
