[QUOTE=daigennki;47810915]I was wondering that as well. I might've improperly translated what the tweet that the pics came from said. Maybe I meant shrapnel from the bombs?[/QUOTE]
Tweet does say US army machine gun fire, so that's weird.
[url=https://twitter.com/Zan_Woo/status/587286973628321794/photo/1]No-one in the original tweet seems to have mentioned this neither. [/url]
At least I think that's the original

[quote]In 1989, wanting to see how the American’s lived, Boris Yeltsin made an unscheduled visit to Randall’s supermarket in Houston. Between trying free samples of cheese and produce and staring at the meat selections, Yeltsin roamed the aisles of Randall’s nodding his head in amazement.[/quote]
[quote]For a long time, on the plane to Miami, he sat motionless, his head in his hands. ‘What have they done to our poor people?’ he said after a long silence.” He added, “On his return to Moscow, Yeltsin would confess the pain he had felt after the Houston excursion: the ‘pain for all of us, for our country so rich, so talented and so exhausted by incessant experiments.’ ”
He wrote that Mr. Yeltsin added, “I think we have committed a crime against our people by making their standard of living so incomparably lower than that of the Americans.” An aide, Lev Sukhanov was reported to have said that it was at that moment that “the last vestige of Bolshevism collapsed” inside his boss.[/quote]

What's up with the quality of this picture?
It almost looks like it's taken with a crappy phone camera, but at the same time it's pretty obviously a long exposure which phone cameras generally can't do.
Anyone got the story behind it / original file or author? Or is it just a photoshop.

I know he's not the most liked person, especially in Russia, but I feel bad for Boris. He genuinely wanted to do good for his country.

Probably, this doesn't change the fact that he was a terribly incompetent president though. Good intentions don't make you a good person. People say shit about Putin, and rightfully so, but it was his government that finally stopped complete mess in russia back in early 00s.
Anyway, have a really cozy photo of some ny sidestreet

I wasn't aware being simply incompetent alone made you a terrible person, either.

If you're a president of a big country with huge problems and you want to do some good stuff for your country, but realize you're totally incompetent, you should resign, not stay in power for a goddamn decade, making things even worse.
So yeah, being incompetent alone doesn't make you a terrible person, but in conjunction with power-hungriness it sure does.

Someone took almost a 100000 images in front of the same grocery store, and (using Picasa's tagging) made a big system of "connectedness".

No one is going to think that THEY themselves are incompetent, especially in such a position of power, unless they're somehow really pessimistic.

Damn that's a good photo.
The fact that you can't see a single speck of sky makes it really feel like a big city shot.

Yeah, i like this guy's photos. He's also a great artist, so it's not surprising he's a good photographer. Check out his [URL="http://leventep.deviantart.com/gallery/"]gallery [/URL]if you want.

Then there's those who bury their tortoise / turtle pets that they think are dead but in reality they're hibernating.
Not sure if this counts

There are people who overfeed their goldfish, and when their goldfish get all bloated and gassy and float to the top, they assume they're dead and chuck em. But if you wait a bit they'll have a good fart and start swimming normally again

The new Virgin Australia livery looks so much nicer and more professional than the old one. Virgin Aus as a whole has gotten much better over the past few years as well, always pick them for domestic flights as they generally have the cleanest and comfiest seats here.
