BTW

Вот такой денек выдался сегодня. Странно было отбиваться от снежинок и при этом стараться не быть ослепленным солнечным светом. Вот так и живем – боремся, боремся, боремся, и лишь иногда останавливаемся, чтобы найти кусочек красоты в этом хаосе.

ЗЫ Пиво хорошо, а с чипсами еще лучше! Привет Латвийским братьям!!

Сегодня из-за отсутствия какой-либо связи работа была, мягко говоря, в стопоре. И мне подумалось, что если вдруг во всем мире в одно мгновение рухнут все телекоммуникационные технологии, то это и будет Апокалипсис.

Новая версия движка заставляет двигаться вперед, ака развиваться, и как птица-феникс…

ЗЫ А в Баку снег и заморозки. Так что всем счастливого года Огненной Свиньи!
ЗЫ2 Надеюсь, масленица и полагающиеся к ней блины не обошли вас стороной!

[photopress:13141507.jpg,full,alignleft] It is 5 weeks since the horrible crash, which nearly took life of the TopGear presenter Richard Hammond. Now he is already left hospital and recovering in the mountain cottage with his family. Moreover, couple weeks ago filming of the Top Gear show has been resumed and soon we will be enjoying the new series of this great show. The Daily Mirror newspaper, where Hammond has his column, has published exclusive interview with Richard. Here some of them:

RICHARD HAMMOND EXCLUSIVE: I’LL BE BACK
RICHARD HAMMOND EXCLUSIVE: THE WIFE’S STORY
HAMMOND EXCLUSIVE: ‘I HAD THIS INCREDIBLE PHYSICAL LONGING TO SEE THE KIDS..THEY HAVE BEEN SO BRAVE’
RICHARD HAMMOND EXCLUSIVE: THE DAY I DIED
‘EVERY TIME I FEEL A TWINGE I WONDER: IS THIS THE END?’

The new series of the show has started with Jeremy Clarkson’s test driving of a Lotus Europa at Dunsfold Park Aerodrome in Surrey.

Yesterday, October 17, a workshop at the Baku Deep Water Jacks factory has crashed. The roof of the shop has collapsed – people have been injured. As per official data, 11 people were hospitalized; some of them are severely injured. Hope there won’t be any deceased.

Here is a pretty masterpiece dolls collection of Russian president Vladimir Putin. It was presented on the II International Dolls Salon which has taken place in Moscow on 12-15 of October 2006. I’m not in the dolls passion though, but I happily would have one of them.. or even all of them!

[photopress:ganguro_people.jpg,thumb,alignleft] Surfing around the net I have found photos of strange looking Japanese girls. It turned out that the girls are in the fashion tide called Ganguro. Wikipedia says:

Ganguro is a fashion trend among many Japanese girls which peaked in popularity from the late 1990s to the early 2000s, an outgrowth of chapatsu hair dyeing. The Shibuya and Ikebukuro districts of Tokyo are the center of ganguro fashion.

The basic look consists of bleached hair, a deep tan, both black and white eyeliners, false eyelashes, platform shoes (usually sandals or boots), and brightly colored outfits. Also typical of the “Ganguro Gal” look are cell phones covered with purikura stickers, tie-dyed sarongs, mini-skirts, hibiscus flower hairpins, and lots of bracelets, rings and necklaces.

Extreme trend followers further bleach their hair up to a platinum blond shade, get even deeper tans, wear white lipstick, multicolored pastel eyeshadows and tiny metallic or glittery adhesives around the bottom rim of the eye sockets (See Yamanba). Popular Ganguro magazines include Egg, Popteen, and Ego System.
