Clever elevator ad for a plastic surgeon based on Michelangelo’s “Creation of Adam”. Unfortunately, this clever campaign is wasted on the promotion of a rather presumptuous plastic surgeon, but it’s boss nonetheless.
Also: As Redditor unintelligentperson points out, “if you’re holding a stack of pizzas and have to press the button with your ass…[t]hen God will be poking your ass!”

"In a few weeks, one of the most anticipated and expensive movies ever
made will debut on movie screens across the world: Avatar. The sci-fi
epic is making huge buzz for its unparalleled film-making technology,
its award-winning director (James Cameron), and its record-breaking
$230+ million budget.
As you might expect, the promotional campaign is in full swing. While
several trailers have hit the web, we hadn’t stumbled across any very
unique web campaigns. That is, until we discovered theOfficial Avatar Adobe AIR app/interactive trailer.
Billed as the “Official Avatar Interactive Trailer,” the AIR program
brings Avatar’s Pandora natives straight to your desktop. Not only does
it house all of the already-released Avatar trailers, but it includes
dozens of video shorts that go in-depth into the making of the movie
and the background of the main characters.

Now for the interactive part: whenever you watch a trailer, special
“hotspots” will come up where you can learn more about the characters.
Even cooler though is the integration of Avatar’s Twitter, Flickr, and You Tube feeds. You can get all of the latest news right from the interactive trailer.
Honestly? We’re very impressed with Avatar’s app. It’s slick, easy
to use, and chock-full of content. If this doesn’t fulfill your need
for an Avatar fix, then nothing but the actual movie will."
Now If you can't install the Adobe AIR App on your desk top, well here is the old fashion embedded video trailer for your viewing pleasure.
The fastest human being ever, 22 year old Usain Bolt of Jamaica did the impossible again. He surpassed his herculean & cocky performance of last year's 100 Meter world record of the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics yesterday, August 16, 2009, at the World Championships!
According to respected sports doctors and physiologist, Usain Bolt is a physical, anatomical, and physiological "Phenomenon" because of his almost 6'6'' height (197 centimeters). Before Bolt's Summer Olympics achievement last year, it was an accepted fact that human beings above 6'5'' (195- 1/2 CM) are physiologically incapable of producing the best times in the sprint races (60, 100, 200, & 400 meters).
Well, Bolt has dumbfounded the scientific community and sporting world again. Look at what he did yesterday at the World Track & Field Championships in Berlin, Germany. In the fastest 100 Meter field in history, which included American record holder Tyson Gay and fellow Jamaican Asafa Powell (the former Fastest Human Ever), Bolt annihilated the competition!!!
Look in HD video, Usain "Lightening" Bolt is an athletic god among mere humans. He really is ..............SUPERMAN!!!

Extraterrestrial Filmed In The Peruvian Amazon - El Hombre De Quives! It looks real and very spooky. (Expand the media player below to see it full-screen.)
Here is the official write up from Hale Kaden, editor and Investigator
of the Unknown, UFOs, Abductions, missing time, and the Paranormal for
the State of Maine, USA.
Editor's
Note:From a personal standpoint, I am posting this report
reluctantly. Quite a few of our readers have written and asked me
about the video below, and the truth is, I can't say for certain, but
my first impression is that it looks genuine. If any of you video
experts can provide supportive evidence, send me your findings and
opinions, and I will consider them.
UFO activity in Peru seems to
have reached new heights recently with reports of sightings becoming
almost a daily occurrence. Many are convinced that a secret UFO base
exists somewhere in the region, possibly disguised by a lake (Lake
Titicaca?). A disproportionate number of UFO sightings do seem to
involve bodies of water in this part of the world.
Now this video
that might contain footage of an actual Extraterrestrial is making
national headlines and causing a sensation amongst UFO and alien
hunters in Peru and abroad. The video was taken in the Santa Rosa de Quives
region of the Canta province. The area is considered to be holy to
Peruvian Catholics and a place where people come to pray for miracles.
Every
August 30, a pilgrimage takes place here and it is believed the video
was shot at that time last year, however only made public this month.
The
creature depicted in the video is being referred to as Quives Man. The
story has been covered by Peru's Capital Radio and Panamericana TV
station as well as Channel Peru. Needless to say, English language
media have not picked up the story (that is until now).
A group
of ufologists in Peru have carried out an analysis of the video and
claim it contains a real alien. The Peruvian government and scientists
are looking at the video as well. The video can be seen below: Does
it show an actual alien? You be the judge.
