We know now who assassinated Rafik El Hariri
I don't want to say much about this, respecting some of my friends opinion about Hezbolla. I just hope this new will enlighten them a little more.
Human brain wires, the Neurons
A good friend of mine once said "THE HUMAN BRAIN GENERATES MORE ELECTRICAL IMPULSES IN ONE DAY THAN ALL THE TELEPHONES IN THE WORLD." This is to confirm his statement. He also added "one brain.... 100 billion wires ... number of possible permutations for connections of neurons.. ... 100 billion factorial = ~ 3.75 times 10 to the power of 1,056,570,551,815..."

NFL fantasy files
I recently became very interested in American football and realized how hard it can be to throw the ball, catch it and kick it. I'm getting better at it quickly but once I saw this video I was shocked, I'm not sure if it's real but a part of me is trying not to look for the answer. Just enjoy it and don't ask questions.

Lamborghini to build the Estoque or the LM00X SUV, What do YOU think?
A few days ago, a report came out that Lamborghini is teaming up with Porsche to build its very own SUV that will be based on the Porsche’s latest GT architecture. While this news poses a shift in philosophy for the Raging Bull and could potentially undermine its tradition, the latest word, at least according to Car and Driver, is that Lamborghini is "on the fence on which model will join the Gallardo and the Aventador in the lineup".
Batman's new ride will be a Lamborghini Aventador
Super cars are starting to appear in a growing number of movies that involve superheroes. Iron Man began that trend when Tony Stark, played by Robert Downey Jr., was seen riding the Audi R8 a few years back. Since then, a lot of high-budget summer movies have taken to exotics to serve as the protagonist’s main ride, including the Audi R8 Spyder in Iron Man 2, the Ferrari 458 Italia in the about-to-be-released Transformers: Dark of the Moon, and the Lamborghini Murcielago LP640 in The Dark Knight.

Cut Chair
The Cut Chair provides a stable place to sit, but creates an optical illusion that tells you otherwise.
A plate concealed by a thick carpet allows a robust cantilevered seat. Three well placed leg “stumps” and the chair looks as though it has just been magically sliced apart.
Google has it's own facebook, the Googbook
Have you realized something different on Google? I just found out what it is...
Yesterday, Google unveiled Google+, yet another attempt by the search giant to overcome its past miscues in the social networking space.
More people visit Google's network of websites than Facebook each month, but Facebook is killing the search company in categories that advertisers care most about: Time spent and pages viewed. Users spent 62% more time on Facebook than on Google last month, and viewed more than twice the number of pages on Facebook as they did on Google, according to comScore.
Google's latest solution to this growing trend is Google+, a new social network that tries to out-Facebook Facebook. On Facebook, people are either "friends" or not. Google+ makes that distinction more fluid, letting users group their contacts into smaller categories, such as relatives, co-workers, or members of a yoga class. Information can be shared selectively with each group.
A healthy diet
This post is mainly about eating healthy, what is the best diet you can have to be a healthy person? Healthy diets are closely related to losing weight but what I’m about to tell you isn’t the only thing you need to do in case you want to lose weight. Weight loose can’t be accomplished without exercise, but if you follow this diet ALONG with a good exercise routine I can assure you, you will not have any problem with your battle against the scale.
City surfing... Literally!
So two weeks ago I went with some friends on a picnic in Montreal. I was very surprised to see people walking around with surf boards as is they are going to ride the waves in the river. Ironic right? Ever since I have been trying to find out what those people were trying to do. I think I just found what I was looking for.
Refrigerator with a built in beer tap
What's better than having a brand-new, retro-style refrigerator? Having one with a beer tap built in. The Northstar Brew Master Refrigerator ($3,000-$5,300) comes in three styles — 1950, 1951, and 1952 — and arrives fresh from the factory with a through-the-door draught system pre-installed, including the tap dispenser, coupler, connections, CO2 cylinder, and drip tray. As a bonus, you can choose to have it set up for your preferred keg style, letting you decide how much usable refrigerator is left over.
Fast and the Furious 6
Fast Five just went into theaters on April 29, 2011 and in the first weekend made $86,198,765. So far, the fifth installment of The Fast and the Furious franchise has climbed to $600 million and now, NBC Universal’s little money tree has just been given some extra fertilizer. Rumors suggest that the sixth Fast and the Furious movie dubbed Furious 6 for now, will hit theaters worldwide on May 24, 2013.

Ordinary house hold items and their extraordinary possible use
Toothpaste
1- Remove crayon marks; Squirt a little bit of non-gel tooth paste on the wall where the mark. Rub gently with a cloth, and then rinse with warm water.
2- Deodorize hands; Can’t get garlic or onion smell off your hands? Wash them with toothpaste
3- Whiten sneakers; Clean rubber soles by rubbing scuff marks with an old toothbrush and non-gel toothpaste
4- Buff a DVD; Get rid of light scratches by squeezing a little non-gel toothpaste onto a cotton ball. Wipe over the DVD form center out to the edge. Rinse with water and dry with a non-abrasive, lint-free cloth.
5- Defog goggles; Most swimmers know this one, coat the inside of swimming goggles with toothpaste, wipe off, they’ll be crystal clear and won’t fog for another 2 or 3 weeks.
Spike Jonze captures Yo-Yo Ma & Lil Buck performance
Filmmaker Spike Jones says of this incredible piece of video :
"The other day, I was lucky enough to be at an event to bring the arts back into schools and got to see an amazing collaboration between Yo-Yo Ma and a young dancer in LA, Lil Buck. Someone who knows Yo-Yo Ma had seen Lil Buck on YouTube and put them together. The dancing is Lil Buck’s own creation and unlike anything I’ve seen. Hope you enjoy." Spike Jonze
2011 Ferrari Scuderia Spider 16M Conversion Edition By Anderson Germany
There aren’t exactly a ton of tuning kits for the Ferrari Scuderia Spider 16M simply because there’s not much to change on the special edition to begin with. It’s cool, fast, beautiful, and, unfortunately, sold out. So what’s there to do if the itch for a Scuderia Spider 16M suddenly develops? Well, you can hop on the phone and give Anderson Germany a call, for starters. The tuning firm’s latest package allows ownership of a 16M style vehicle without the limited edition hurdle to jump over. The kit starts off with a Ferrari F430 Spider with a number of additions to not only make it 16M ready, but to allow for more horsepower as well.
Convertible Rolls Royce
Typically, automakers don’t create vehicles just for the sake of making them weekend riders, but that’s because many of us can’t afford to buy a car just to use it two days out of the week. Rolls Royce owners, on the other hand, can have a different car for every day of the week and it wouldn’t matter. After trying it out they really like it and the British luxury automaker decided to offer its British customers a very special Phantom Drophead Coupe that "was designed to capture the essence of a perfect weekend get-away, offering drivers and their passengers the ultimate luxurious and relaxing experience in roof-down motoring."

Paul Hunt the comedian gymnast
We talked about comedians of all sorts, stand up comedians, dummy comedians, and comedians, but a gymnast comedian? Well Paul Hunt is one of those, but don't be fooled by the humor, in gymnastics it is pretty hard to look bad without breaking your bones.
Actually Hunt was a pro gymnast in his days, he even won the US national championship in floor exercise.

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.
The human dummy
Both parents attended drama school, mother went on to become a BBC Radio 2 presenter and his father a producer for the BBC World Service. Paul Zerdin is a comedian/ventriloquist (which an act of stagecraft in which a person (a ventriloquist) manipulates his or her voice so that it appears that the voice is coming from elsewhere, usually a puppeteered "dummy"). When he was 10 a family friend made him a puppet theatre which he used to put on shows, a hobby which quickly grew into an obsession. The real turning point for Paul was when he was given a book on ventriloquism written by the legendary Ray Alan and it was not long before he was spending half an hour a day in front of the mirror practicing talking without moving his lips. When Paul was 17 he got a part-time job at Davenports’ Magic and began to develop his own magic skills along the way and became a children’s entertainer as a sideline.
Now he likes to embarrass people.

5 second films
"5-Second Films was created by Brian “Boss Man” Firenzi in the Spring of 2005, after being disappointed by so many 5,400-second films. The rules are simple: 2 seconds of beginning titles, 5 seconds of film, 1 second of end titles. If you take umbrage with these 5sfs running at an actual length of 8 seconds, I can only assume you’re no fun at dinner parties."

Intelligent packaging
Packaging is a very important marketing strategy to glamorize a product in order to attract the consumer's attention. Often however, packaging can be neglected by business.
A selection of beautiful packaging designs, some conceptual and some that made it to the shelves but all great examples of the designer going the extra mile to ensure that all important first impression is a positive one.

125m yacht
Another intriguing concept from yacht enthusiast Hyun-Seok Kim. The Voronoi mega-yacht is named after the voronoi pattern of the irregular honeycomb lattice structure that encases it’s upper levels. This yacht was made to entertain. Hot tubs and golfing green occupy the upper deck and within the lattice on the bridge deck lies an indoor garden and luxurious pool area. The interior has all sorts of comforts of home and a little more. It even has a sleek emergency vessel for a stylish evacuation, but hopefully the captain’s only worry will be avoiding those honeycomb tan lines.
Biometric wallet 'virtually indestructible' opens only with your touch
This biometric wallet has a Bluetooth proximity alarm, carbon fiber shell, and fingerprint sensor for maximum security. It will set the rich and paranoid back about $825.
Afraid someone might take something out of your wallet? If you have $825 to spend, fear no more. Dunhill is selling what it calls a “Biometric Wallet” that it claims is virtually indestructible and can only be opened with your fingerprint. Scared of someone taking the entire wallet? It can be linked to a mobile phone via Bluetooth and set to sound an alarm if your phone and wallet are separated by more than five meters (15 feet).

Soap flakes?
Today, most of the soap we use is liquid soap, which contains a lot of water. Block soap instead is more concentrated and therefore has some ecological benefits: You don’t transport unnecessary water around. In place of plastic bottles you can simply use paper for packaging. The solid blocks can easily be piled and allow a greater space efficiency in a truck.
Animal-Industry... Not so Bad? :)
In China and Japan, a common delicacy is Tuna Eye Ball.

In Vietnam, dog meat is also a delicacy.
In the Western hemisphere, in countries like Canada, the United-States and countries in Europe, delicacies include hamburgers, fried chicken, roasts, and other "normal" dishes. In fact, burgers and steaks aren't necessarily delicacies; they are everyday foods. If meat (and its byproducts) are so mainstream, we have no right to be ignorant as to where they come from. It is our duty, as CONSUMERS of the meat as well as supporters of the industry, to ensure that the animals are well taken care of and undergo ethical treatment.

How does a bike trip from Ottawa to Montreal look like
Recently, I biked from Ottawa to Montreal, 200km, a big accomplishment for me personally. The journey took me 11 hours and 18 min. As a result a lot of my friends were asking me how is it like? In next few days my answer was always, hard, tiring, my legs are killing me, I can't walk normally, it feels like someone stuck the bicycle seat up my ass... But once the pain is gone, I remember the good parts and I'm glad the 200k were between Ottawa and Montreal, I couldn't ask for a better nature around me. To prepare for the bike ride, I made sure my back pack was light, filled only with water, Gatorade, my cell phone and I wanted to specifically take my camera with me to document everything. Being the dumb ass that I am, I didn't charge it. So when I took my camera out to take a picture of the trail that I followed, it switched off right away, I didnt have time to view it and I didn't know it the picture even saved. It wasn't until last night when I was uploading other pictures from my camera that I found the picture of the trail... I think it is the best explanation that I could give you about this journey.
God loves drunks too
A man and his wife were awakened at 3:00 am by a loud pounding on the door. The man gets up and goes to the door where a drunken stranger, standing in the pouring rain, is asking for a push.
"Not a chance," says the husband, "it is 3:00 in the morning!"
He slams the door and returns to bed.
"Who was that?" asked his wife.
"Just some drunk guy asking for a push," he answers.
"Did you help him?" she asks.
"No, I did not, it is 3:00 in the morning and it is pouring rain out there!"
"Well, you have a short memory," says his wife. "Can't you remember about three months ago when we broke down, and those two guys helped us? I think you should help him, and you should be ashamed of yourself! God loves drunk people too."
The man does as he is told, gets dressed, and goes out into the pounding rain.
He calls out into the dark, "Hello, are you still there?"
"Yes," comes back the answer.
"Do you still need a push?" calls out the husband.
"Yes, please!" comes the reply from the dark.
"Where are you?" asks the husband.
"Over here on the swing set," replied the drunk.
Meat industry...
By now, it is clear to most of you that I am a big meat lover and I recommend everyone to eat meat. I am also against vegetarianism. All this doesn't mean I agree with all the methods some farms use. If I had the chance I would try to avoid buying meat that comes from those horrible farms.
First I have to warn you that this video is extremely graphic, then I MUST tell you that vegetarian organisations over do it a little bit. They advertise the bad farms and never show you the good ones. I would agree with them 100% if their point was to tell people to chose their meat carefully, but I really don't like how they show only the bad farms and tell you not to eat meat. Cosco for example, after this video was released stopped all their business with these farms and looked for better ones. As a result the bad farm go out of business and the good ones became very rich, which is exactly what should happen. GIVE CREDIT WHEN CREDIT IS DUE and punish those who don't deserve any credit just don't tell me not to eat meat because a few farms treat the animals badly. It's like telling me not to have kids because SOME kids become criminals...
However, this video is very bad and after watching I hope you will chose you meat wisely whenever you can. I hope this won't back fire by turning you into a veggy because that's not my point here.
Try to avoid these farms chose your meat carefully, and know that you don't need to stop eating meat to stop these farms. Putting them out of business by dealing with the good ones will suffice to stop these inhumane farms.
Organic meat and food in general is a lot better for you and it tastes much better. A little more pricey but if you are able, it would be wise to switch. I will do my best to find a list of supermarkets that sell meat coming from reliable farms and let you know first hand about them. So bare with me for a few more days until my research is complete and enjoy your meat in the mean time.
If you have any suggestion that can help with my research please comment.

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).
10 Smartest animals in the world
1. Chimpanzees
Many researchers discover that chimps can learn a lot of thing that others can’t. Using symbols and teaching them to other chimps is only one of them. They also understand aspects of human language, including concepts of number and numerical sequence as well as some relational syntax. Chimpanzees make tools and use them to acquire foods, for social displays. Above all, chimpanzees have a better memory than any other creature, including humans. They are analytical and good in solving problem, clearly capable of insight and complex “cognitive performance” in both the captivity and in wild, and particularly adept at analyzing relative relationships. After all these traits, sharing 96% of their DNA with ours, chimpanzees deserve to top our list as the smartest animal in the world.

Maserati, a new SUV?
In 2003 since Maserati Kubang Concept was released I've been waiting for it to get into production. My prayers have finally been answered and in 2011 Maserati confirms the new SUV is finally set to launch sometime in 2012. That confirmation was followed with rumors of a Ferrari-sourced engine, but as it turns out, Top Gear is hearing that Chevrolet will actually be the ones powering the bulkier Maserati.
Is Bugatti planning on reviving the Royal 1933?
A leaked document about Bugatti’s future product planning revealed some very interesting facts about the company’s plans for the year. We already know that the final unit of the Veyron will be produced in December, but what I didn’t know was that the Galibier will be put into production as the Royale. That is, unless Bugatti is looking to unveil a entirely new supercar which we doubt. Look for the new Royale to be debuted in September at the Frankfurt Motor Show.
Unlikely friendship between a an orangutan and a dog
After losing his parents, this 3 year old orangutan was so depressed he wouldn't eat and didn't respond to any medical treatments. The veterinarians thought he would surely die from sadness. The zoo keepers found an old sick dog on the grounds in the park at the zoo where the orangutan lived and took the dog to the animal treatment center. The dog arrived at the same time the orangutan was there being treated. The 2 lost souls met and have been inseparable ever since. The orangutan found a new reason to live and each always tries his best to be a good companion to his new found friend.
They are together 24 hours a day in all their activities.

Interesting facts about the human body.
Everyday things we experience that no one really explained to us.
Why getting kicked in the balls causes abdominal pain?
Testes originally forn in the abdomen near the stomach and kidneys. Nerves and blood vessels are attached to that region. When the balls are squished, the pain travels up into the abdominal cavity, then to the spine. So it kind of tricks the brain to think the pain is originating from the abdomen. Sometimes men will also experience nausea, when you see them fall on the floor of pain... It's caused by a huge rush of sympathetic nervous system discharge. Vomiting is sometimes another symptom...

Lending a helping hand to Aston Martin...
Aston Martin is having some problems. The popularity of this magnificent company is not what it used to be. Personally, I am not too happy with this. Aston Martin chopped the production for the Rapide from 2,000 units all the way down to 1,250 per year. Since they took care of cutting costs, which is step one, I’ll do my part in helping them out with step two: Marketing.
It looks like the V12 Zagato Racer won’t be the only Aston Martin model participating in the Nürburgring 24-hour race in Europe and the Spring Mountain 24 hours in Nevada. The Rapide will also be making its presence known at the race, first to demonstrate the durability of Aston Martin’s four door sports coupe, then to help raise money for charity. Surely this has something to do with the fact that the company has been experiencing slow demand for the luxury sports sedan.
How much does it cost to own a Bugatti Veyron? (not buying, just maintaining)

2014 Land Rover Grand Evoque
Land rover got much higher than average feedback for their 3 and 5 doors Evoque, which is making them look into adding a 4th model to their line-up. It will be a supersized Evoque, hens the name Grand Evoque. It will be placed between the Evoque and the Range Rover Sport. This new model will be built on Land Rover’s new LR-MS platform the same platform that will be used for the future Jaguar SUV model and will feature an aggressively sporty appearance and considerable interior space, especially in the rear.
10 Most Bizarre Hotels of the World
1. Hotel Kakslauttanen, Finland

Jackass star Ryan Dunn dies in a car crash
Just when we thought nothing can stand in the way of any member of Jackass, a Porsche 911 GT3 proved us wrong. The tragedy took place earlier today as Jackass star Ryan Dunn has reportedly died after being involved in a car crash in Pennsylvania earlier this morning. According to TMZ as confirmed by Bam Margera’s mom, Dunn and an unidentified person died after crashing on Route 322 and New Street in West Goshen Township around 3am in what appeared to be Dunn’s Porsche 911 GT3. It is unclear who the driver of the vehicle was, but reports are stating that the vehicle erupted into flames and was later towed away as the crumbled mess seen in the picture above.
