Boat for Sale, or Floating Island, pretty cool

Boat for Sale


Want to buy a boat? Think about this "island yacht", and make sure I should be invited to its inaugural sailing...

20111030083251_image1

Yes you read it right, a whole amazing island built right on a beautiful yacht. Created by UK-based yacht design company Yacht Island Designs, bringing a whole island onto a yacht.

The design as you can see is inspired by tropical islands, with huts, a pool and to top of that, a whole volcano that is sure not to erupt. Since this is a yacht, it comes packed with special VIP rooms, arcades, gym, lounges, spas and even a helipad. The volcano adds a lot of beauty to the whole look of the yacht, it also happens to have water flowing out of it onto the pool creating this amazing river complementing the whole tropical look.

The back of the yacht has a retractable beach deck where structures float on the sea making the sea accessible to swim in and of course grant access to various water activities such as wake boarding and jet-skis. The whole concept is pure genius and the result looks even better.

Israel's new airport security



Israel’s new ‘Cutting Edge’ Airport Security
Untitled1

 TEL AVIV, Israel — The Israelis are developing an airport security device that eliminates the privacy concerns that come with full-body scanners. It's an armored booth you step into that will not X-ray you, but will detonate any explosive device you may have on your person.

Israel sees this as a win-win situation for everyone, with none of this crap about racial profiling. It will also eliminate the costs of long and expensive trials.

You're in the airport terminal and you hear a muffled explosion. Shortly thereafter, an announcement: “Attention to all standby passengers, El Al is proud to announce a seat available on flight 670 to London . Shalom!”

BRILLIANT.

The Gaddafi they are not telling us about. PLEASE READ RESPONSE.


I read a FaceBook post on the Libyan lifestyle and don't understand, or never knew the Americans are/were against him. I just think its all greed over Oil and the US Government are fighting anyone to get their dirty hands on it.

BRISBANE SUNDAY MAIL 23/10/2011  (PAGE 53 )
WASHINGTON...MUAMMAR GADDAFI HAD MORE THAN $US200 BILLION IN BANK ACCOUNTS
REAL ESTATE AND INVESTMENTS BEFORE HE WAS KILLED ACCORDING TO LIBYAN OFFICALS
THE FIGURES REPRESENTS ABOUT $30,000 FOR EVERY LIBYAN CITIZEN.
THE NEW ESTIMATES WERE 'STAGGERING" SAID ONE PERSON WHO STUDIED DETAILED
RECORDS OF THE ASSET SEARCH.
IF THE VALUES PROVE ACCURATE, GADDAFI WILL GO DOWN IN HISTORY AS ONE OF THE MOST
RAPACIOUS AND BIZARRE WORLD LEADERS. DURING HIS 42 YEARS IN POWER GADDAFI STEERED
AID AND INVESTMENTS TO BENEFIT HIS OWN FAMILY BUT DENIED SUPPORT FOR MUCH OF
THE COUNTRY.
THE QUESTION IS....IS THE ABOVE TRUE OR FALSE ?????

VERY INTERESTING..... read

The media has successfully painted Gaddafi as a hard-core dictator, tyrant whatever you want to call him. However, the media as usual has also failed to show the kind, giving Gaddafi we never heard of. Gaddafi unlike most dictators I will refrain from naming them has managed to show his humane side, the very side we dream of seeing in other dictators who just talk and talk.
I consider Libyans lucky to a certain extent and one wonders with the new democratic rule they cry for will it improve or worsen life for them Yes, Gaddafi has spent millions of Libya`s money on personal ventures but is the average Libyan poor? We know others who take a country and destroy it until you feel like there is no hope of restoring this country… looting some prefer to call it. Did Gaddafi loot Libya in any way?
Now let us get to the unknown facts about the Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi:

Image

1. There is no electricity bill in Libya; electricity is free for all its citizens.
2. There is no interest on loans, banks in Libya are state-owned and loans given to all its citizens at 0% interest by law.
3. Home considered a human right in Libya – Gaddafi vowed that his parents would not get a house until everyone in Libya had a home. Gaddafi’s father has died while him, his wife and his mother are still living in a tent.
4. All newlyweds in Libya receive $60,000 Dinar (US$50,000) by the government to buy their first apartment so to help start up the family.

5. Education and medical treatments are free in Libya. Before Gaddafi only 25% of Libyans are literate. Today the figure is 83%.
6. Should Libyans want to take up farming career, they would receive farming land, a farming house, equipments, seeds and livestock to kick-start their farms – all for free.
7. If Libyans cannot find the education or medical facilities they need in Libya, the government funds them to go abroad for it – not only free but they get US$2,300/mth accommodation and car allowance.
8. In Libyan, if a Libyan buys a car, the government subsidized 50% of the price.
9. The price of petrol in Libya is $0.14 per liter.
10. Libya has no external debt and its reserves amount to $150 billion – now frozen globally.

11. If a Libyan is unable to get employment after graduation the state would pay the average salary of the profession as if he or she is employed until employment is found.
12. A portion of Libyan oil sale is, credited directly to the bank accounts of all Libyan citizens.
13. A mother who gave birth to a child receive US$5,000
14. 40 loaves of bread in Libya costs $ 0.15
15. 25% of Libyans have a university degree
16. Gaddafi carried out the world’s largest irrigation project, known as the Great Man-Made River project, to make water readily available throughout the desert country.
Which other dictator has done much good to his people?

Today’s Commentary on Libya...

Conducting and rejoicing over this kind of lawless brutality and violent murder of others without due process, places those responsible beneath contempt!  This kind of violent crime, destruction and atrocities committed against civilians is nothing to be proud of.  In fact, it is despicably shameful and reveals much about the character of the perpetrators.

In spite of claims made by various leaders and the media, most people know the invasion and mass murder in Libya was mostly about oil (Exxon/Mobile & BP), banking and oil currency!  Vilifying and convicting a person in the media to justify the “capture and kill” policy is an affront to the rule of law, justice, democracy and the so called principals of what most wars have been fought for!

Qs ...
Rebels financed and directed by who?
A Constitution drafted by who?
Voting controlled by who?
Oil & banking controlled by who?

The Road to Alcoholism (it all begins somewhere)

I  used to be like this... 

 

E2e2bbdd95eb445fa7f81929679ad3


Then I met a  girl...
9ba96ce634304083b024223bd4532e



She was  like this...
2cc2e4c928c44d53a88fcbfe15ba03

Together, we  were like this...

329761c783db4b30ace1d62a207e96

I gave her  gifts like this...

B1c6ff3dfe524f80a9679513702b89

When she  accepted my proposal, I was like  this...

A82d433ffd8249f59ed7c46e89a6c6

I used to talk  to her all night like this...

732466734819491a81e781cc32e70e


And at the  office I used to do this...
A5a0e73260744ab3befeb5474877d1

When my  friends saw my girlfriend, they stared like  this... 

A4dd9c98d0804750b4122fa7673c53

And I used to  react like this...

Ac97c9eb981149938ec3b7cd06c8d5


But on Valentine’s  Day, 
she received a red rose from someone  else like this...

1791b17befa04adea8081749d87de2


And she was  like this…

821d651a05f54de5902f466a55384b

And I was like  this…

Ac69dbd89b8d408fad42f4625fc5e9


Which later led to  this..
.
4aa8ca3b1b224f838a1d3adec04a83


and  this...

I  felt like doing this...

3a4c4403218841aebf8934673a06f9

So I started  doing this...

41c28d7ca098409bbc6c771a35fd4d


     

                                    NOW   look at  me…
