15 Creative Potholes

Posted: 31 May 2011 07:06 PM PDT

Potholes are annoying and destructive. They can wreck your car's suspension, distract cyclists and worst of all, running into one can make you spill your latte all over your freshly cleaned suit.

However, like with everything else, some happy do-gooders are making lemons out of lemonade. After Davide Luciano and Claudia Ficca, artists from Montreal, had to pay $600 in car repairs from hitting a pothole; they decided to make potholes the theme for their next photography project.

What happened next was creative, inspiring and will make you look at potholes a little differently from now on. They staged photography around the potholes by creating interesting scenes. Their work has become so popular that they have now photographed potholes in not only Montreal, but New York City and Los Angeles. This is a small sampling of their work.

Top 25 Cross Tattoos

Posted: 31 May 2011 01:14 PM PDT

Cross Tattoos have been popular all throughout history and it doesn't look like the design will lose popularity anytime soon. Most Cross Tattoos often had and still do have special meaning whether for religious reasons or otherwise. The early Christian religious clergy used small, hand-held crosses to bestow blessings and Crosses were carried in holy processions. Later, crosses found a place on altars in churches and were erected outdoors in markets and along roads. The cross is probably one of the most recognized religious symbols in the world because people associate it with Christianity.

Meet Ernestine Shepherd, 74-Year-Old Woman with a Six-Pack

Posted: 31 May 2011 12:32 PM PDT

Ernestine Shepherd, 74, of Baltimore, United States has been crowned by the Guinness Book of World Records as the oldest competitive female bodybuilder ever.

She told the Washington Post: 'Age is nothing but a number'.
Ms Shepherd has impeccably toned 'six-pack' abs that are the marvel of her Baltimore fitness centre.

Her husband of 54 years, Collin Shepherd, says he 'has trouble keeping guys away from her'. The Shepherds live in Baltimore with their son, 53, and grandson, 14.


Over the past 18 years, Shepherd has run nine marathons and won two bodybuilding contests.

Shepherd said she wasn't always so fit. She was a 'couch potato' until she was 56 years old, when she and her older sister, Mildred, discovered their bodies had started going soft. She says Sylvester Stallone is her idol. Not exactly your typical grandmother.
