2011 Paramount group Marauder

Top gear is probably the number one car tvshow in the world. The best thing about the host job is, among other things, of course, the chance to get behind the wheel of some of the most insane machines on the planet. Whether it’s a high-powered go-kart or a sports car dressed as a gypsy tent, there’s no shortage of vehicles that can escape the sharp eyes.
But of all cars they have driven, I can guarantee there's nothing quite like the Marauder. Built in South Africa by the Paramount Group, the Marauder is quite arguably the baddest and meanest set of wheels we’ve ever seen.

10 Things Everyone Should Know About Hunger

1. At present, there are 925 million people in the world who do not eat enough to be healthy. That means, one in every seven people on Earth goes to bed hungry each night. (Source: FAO News Release, 2010)

2. Rising food prices pushed an additional 44 million people into hunger between June 2010 and February 2011 when they soared to their highest level ever. (Source: World Bank Food Price Watch, 2011)

3. While the number of hungry people has risen, as a percentage of the world population, hunger has actually fallen from 33 per cent of the population in 1969 to just over 15 per cent of the population in 2010. (Source: FAO, 2010)

4. Well over half of the world’s hungry people–some 578 million people–live in Asia and the Pacific region. Africa accounts for just over one quarter of the world’s hungry population. Source: (Source: FAO, The State of Food Insecurity in the World, 2010)

5. Hunger is number one on the list of the world’s top 10 health risks. It kills more people every year than AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis combined. (Source: UNAIDS global report, 2010; WHO World Hunger and Poverty Statistics, 2011).

Does anyone know who "The African King of Comedy" is?

Apparently he has been around for quite sometime now.  Michael Blackson, 38, moved to states and in 1993 became a stand up comedina. Originally from Ghana, Blackson still have a slight African accent that he uses in his shows. I was very surprised how funny he is and no one talks about him. His approach to stereotypes is very unique, I love the fact that he separates "African-Americans" and "Black" and "Africans".

Check this out... and if anyone know where I can watch longer videos or perhaps a full show, let me know either contact me anyway you know, or sous23@gmail.com or drop a comment.

Lion affection: the soft side of the wild...

Lately I've been very interested in Lions life and interactions among them and with human and a hidden side keeps relieving itself the more I watch the documentaries. Every documentary has a little segment that I think should be studied a little more, it's about those beasts personality, emotion and affecting towards human. How camera crew can be within meters of their feast and not one lion would stop them or attack them, how in some reserves in Africa they let a human touch them and play with them even next to their cubs and lionesses, how some expert can actually command the lions and go on unleashed walks with them and they would only follow him. It all showed me that these animals can be part of the human life. The affection of a pet is beyond any tie between two souls, ask any dog owner. They love their owner more than life itself, they look at him like a God to them and mostly they love their owner no matter what he/she does to them. I think the same could be told about lions, and what greater affection then the one coming from a beast weighing more than you and could kill you in one stroke but chooses to hug you and listen to you? We all remember "Christian the lion" well here's another example...

And for those who don't know who Christian the lion is here he is...
