Chinese propaganda video, it doesn't have to be accurate it just has to look good. This could easily be done either by having two rooms painted similarly and tilting the camera or by building a room that can spin on its own axis together with the camera inside it. It's been done extensivly in music videos.

I'm not calling it BS, I am though questioning its validity. Generally, any type of propaganda videos are to be taken if not with a grain of salt at least with a backpack full.

Indeed not new, that perticular design of chair-bag has been used for decades, with different combinations of bags and colors obviously. Really great for anyone doing any hiking or sport fishing.

Interesting idea, overdone though, and in this case rather poorly executed. The retouching of the person with camera could've been done much better.

By all means, anyone who's interested, read the tutorial on how to create this kind of images here: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/31978224/

Yeah, same as with Aleki, I always assumed that reindeer was actually pretty common elsewhere as well (knowing that a lot goes on export). I live in the northern parts of Sweden and eat reindeer fairly often.

No one saw her give birth, hence if it's proven that the puppies aren't feline (which no doubt will be done) it's 100% debunked. Even if it was witnessed it still wouldn't mean it's true, people lie all the time.

Either way, this is impossible, at best if something like that was possible, if canine sperm managed to fertilize a feline egg the end result would at best be a mutation which would result in a miscarriage shortly after the egg was fertilized. That's common knowledge, two species that far apart genetically cannot be crossed without some pretty intensive genetic splicing, which pretty much is only avaliable on simple organisms, such as plants.

Paul, why would he never get another job? Just because one has facial tattoos does not mean that you're destined for unemployment the rest of your life. On the one side there are people who are actually cognitively able to discern between a person, his or her abilities and how that person chooses to look. Then there's also self employment, or quite possibly having enough money so none of this actually matters. Obvious statements? Not at all. Just not very thought through statements.

Sallie, that's very mature of you. Sure it's up to taste, but why call someone an idiot simply for the reason that he chooses to tattoo himself in a less than conventional (for westerners at least) place? He may or may not be an idiot, but I'd personally take being an idiot any day over being a narrow minded bigot.

Haha, awesome, two posts with the same meaning at the same time.

They are still being widely used where sheep herds and predators are common. Eastern Europe where wolves are more common for instance.

One use for the breed is actually to protect herds from predators. A predator attacks, the whole herd runs away except this goat who gets killed and eaten. Which obviously is better than a predator mortally wounding several animals instead.

Kill it! Kill it with fire!

Except, um, don't...let it be slain by a predator instead, much more dignified way to go. Not that animals care about dignity, but that's another issue alltogether.

If you actually bothered checking what the Phuket Vegetarian Festival is all about you'd understand the connection. While I do have a problem with using the wording "self-torture" this page is a good read to demystify and explain what the festival is all about (and how the cheek skewering and other body rituals are only a part of the whole): http://www.phuketvegetarian.com/phuketvegetarian-eng/phuketvegetarian-history.htm

Cute idea, though having worked over four years in the telemarketing business, frequently calling youth (who are the ones most exposed to this script, which after all is quite old and pretty well known around the net) I have never come across anyone using it. Quaint if anything.

Though, I would personally love to talk to someone trying something like this. I would laugh and laugh and laugh, and then laugh some more.
