Original and creative gallery of photographies by Irina Werning. Artist about herself: “I love old photos. I admit being a nosey photographer. As soon as I step into someone else’s house, I start sniffing for them. Most of us are fascinated by their retro look but to me, it’s imagining how people would feel and look like if they were to reenact them today… A few months ago, I decided to actually do this. So, with my camera, I started inviting people to go back to their future.”

Is there anything more pleasant than discussing someone else’s faults? People are constantly judging everything, especially each others, but take a good, long look at this and…

Mind your own business – STOP JUDGING!

When you decide to get a tattoo you are aware that tattoo is permanent. Too many times people end up regretting the tattoo they got. Most of the time, this is because they didn’t take the time to think about what they were getting. The question is did people from these photos took their time for their permanent tattoos?

Everyone (of over 500 million users) on the largest social website Facebook like to get seen “in the best light” in their albums, profile pictures… But some people just don’t have a sense for humor – because that’s what this is – FUNNY!  Take a good look at this gallery with some of the weirdest pictures on Facebook and remind that these are pictures that you should NOT have on your profile!

It’s really hard to imagine what people can do when they are training hard. The power of brain and will are the most important if you want to do something unbelievable and here you can see the proof of that. Enjoy in these interesting photos!

Photographer Tom Phillips has created a unique series of shots, which he called “Dead pictures” . In them we see the dead men in the background of a completely different landscapes or in everyday life. You will agree with us that it would bee so weird to see making of these photographies…

How many times did you see something huge and ask yourself – How big this world is… But when you see it from the insects perspective things are a lot different, aren’t they? Lets imagine that we are the same size as insects for a moment and see how it would be…

About YouTube:

YouTube was founded in 2005 by Chad Hurley, Steve Chen and Jawed Karim, who were all early employees of PayPal. YouTube is the leader in online video, sharing original videos worldwide through a Web experience. YouTube allows people to easily upload and share video clips across the Internet through websites, mobile devices, blogs, and email.

Everyone can watch videos on YouTube. People can see first-hand accounts of current events, find videos about their hobbies and interests, and discover the quirky and unusual. As more people capture special moments on video, YouTube is empowering them to become the broadcasters of tomorrow.

YouTube received funding from Sequoia Capital in November 2005 and was officially launched one month later in December. Chad Hurley and Steve Chen proceeded to become the first members of the YouTube management team and currently serve as Chief Executive Officer and Chief Technology Officer respectively.

In November 2006, within a year of its launch, YouTube was purchased by Google Inc. in one of the most talked-about acquisitions to date.

YouTube has struck numerous partnership deals with content providers such as CBS, BBC, Universal Music Group, Sony Music Group, Warner Music Group, NBA, The Sundance Channel and many more.

Interesting:

In March 2007, Viacom introduced its much talked about $1 billion lawsuit against Google and YouTube. In a statement explaining why they were pursuing legal action, Viacom stated that “we must turn to the courts to prevent Google and YouTube from continuing to steal value from artists and to obtain compensation for the significant damage they have caused.” The lawsuit was preceded by a takedown request from Viacom ordering YouTube to remove over 100,000 clips from its stable of networks.

Facts:

Maybe this company doesn’t look so impressive like Google but here are some interesting facts about YouTube:
- YouTube reaches 1Billion Views per day
- YouTube Hits 100 Million U.S. Viewers
- YouTube was acquired by Google for $1.65B
- YouTube received $8M in Series B funding.
- YouTube received $3.5M in Series A funding… and after these facts we can only look at these pictures and guess how much money employees make in this successful company…

The Mursi (or Murzu) are a nomadic cattle herder ethnic group located in the Debub Omo Zone of the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and People’s Region in Ethiopia, close to the Sudanese border. According to the 2007 national census, there are 7,500 Mursi, 448 of whom live in urban areas, of the total number 92.25% live in the Southern Nations, Nationalities, and People’s Region.

Surrounded by mountains between the Omo River and its tributary the Mago, the home of the Mursi is one of the most isolated regions of the country. Their neighbors include the Aari, the Banna, the Bodi, the Kara, the Kwegu, the Me’en the Nyangatom and the Suri. They are grouped together with the Me’en and Suri by the Ethiopian government under the name Surma.

The Mursi have their own language, also called Mursi, which is classified as one of the Surmic languages; it is closely related (over 80% cognate) to Me’en and Suri, as well as Kwegu. According to the 1994 national census, there were 3,163 people who were identified as Mursi in the SNNPR; 3,158 spoke Mursi as their first language, while 31 spoke it as their second language. According to the analytical volume of the 1994 national census, where Mursi was grouped under Me’en, 89.7% were monolingual, and the second languages spoken were Bench (4.2%), Amharic (3.5% the official language of Ethiopia, and Kafa (1.1%).

Two orthographies for the Mursi language exist, one using the Amharic abiguda and the other Latin-based script. The Amharic-based orthography was developed by members of the missionary organization Serving In Mission, who have worked amongst the Mursi at Maki since 1987. The Latin-based one was developed by Moges Yigezu, of Addis Ababa University.
