World’s Biggest Dog

January 30, 2010 · Leave a Comment

Meet ‘Giant George’ the 7ft-long blue great Dane who could be the world’s tallest dog

Standing at nearly 43 inches tall from paw to shoulder and weighing a staggering 245 lbs could this be the world’s new tallest dog!

Pictured here in the parks of Tucson , Arizona , George, a four-year-old blue great Dane, looks more like a miniature horse than a dog.

The gentle giant, who measures 7 feet 3 inches from nose to tail, he could be a prime contender to take the title from the former record holder, Gibson, a harlequin Great Dane who passed away from cancer last August.

Now George’s owners, David and Christine Nasser, are awaiting confirmation from Guinness World Records to see if he has achieved the lofty heights. He’s 42.625 inches at the shoulder,’ said David. ‘He’s very very unique.’

According to David,

George consumes 110lbs of food every month, and sleeps alone in his own Queen Size Bed.

David and Christine raised George from when he was 7 weeks old,

but never expected him to grow so big!

Dr. William Wallace of the Buena Pet Clinic in Tucson , who witnessed the documentation necessary for the Guinness record, said: ‘In my 45 years of experience working with giant breed dogs, without question, George is the tallest dog I have ever seen.’

David is currently rushing to get that necessary documentation into Guinness as other dog owners are coming forth claiming the record. As they wait for the results to come through, George is busy occupying himself with his new found stardom and even has a Facebook fan page and Twitter accounts for his adorning fans.

It appears as though the sky’s the limit for this mammoth hound.

Paws for thought: George’s giant feet dwarf his owner Dave Nassar’s hand.

Professor Wichman E-mail

January 18, 2010 · Leave a Comment

Very interesting the University is standing by their professor and not bowing down to special interest groups! http://www.snopes.com/politics/soapbox/wichman.asp Professor Wichman E-mail Claim: A Michigan professor sent an e-mail telling Muslim students to leave the country. Status: True. The story begins at Michigan State University with a mechanical engineering professor Named Indrek Wichman. Wichman sent an e-mail to the Muslim Student’s Association. The e-mail was in response to the students’ protest of the Danish cartoons That portrayed the Prophet Muhammad as a terrorist. The group had complained the cartoons were ‘hate speech’ ============ Enter Professor Wichman. ========================================== In his e-mail, he said the following: =============================== Dear Moslem Association, As a professor of Mechanical Engineering here at MSU I intend to protest your protest. I am offended not by cartoons, but by more mundane things like beheadings of civilians, Cowardly attacks on public buildings, suicide murders, murders of Catholic priests (the latest in Turkey), burnings of Christian churches, the continued persecution of Coptic Christians in Egypt, the imposition of Sharia law on non-Muslims,the rapes of Scandinavian girls and women (called ‘whores’ in your culture), the murder of film directors in Holland ,and the rioting and looting in Paris,France . This is what offends me, a soft-spoken person and academic, and many, many of my colleagues. I counsel you dissatisfied, aggressive, brutal, and uncivilized slave-trading Moslems to be very aware of this as you proceed with your infantile ‘protests.’ If you do not like the values of the West – see the 1st Amendment -you are free to leave. I hope for God’s sake that most of you choose that option . Please return to your ancestral homelands and build them up yourselves instead of troubling Americans. Cordially, I. S.. Wichman Professor of Mechanical Engineering ============================= As you can imagine, The Muslim group at the university didn’t like this too well. They’re demanding that Wichman be reprimanded and the university impose mandatory diversity training for faculty and mandate a seminar on hate and discrimination for all freshmen. Now the local chapter of CAIR has jumped into the fray . CAIR, the Council on American-Islamic Relations, apparently doesn’t believe that the good professor had the right to express his opinion. ========== For its part, the university is standing its ground in support of Professor Wichman, Saying the e-mail was private, and they don’t intend to publicly condemn his remarks. ============================================================ Send this to your friends, and ask them to do the same. Tell them to keep passing it around until the whole country gets it. We are in a war. This political correctness crap is getting old and killing us.

MEMORIAM – 63 YEARS LATER

January 18, 2010 · Leave a Comment

The prize doesn’t always go to the most deserving….

Irena Sendler

There recently was a death of a 98 year-old lady named Irena. During WWII, Irena, got permission to work in the Warsaw Ghetto, as a Plumbing/Sewer specialist. She had an ‘ulterior motive’ … She KNEW what the Nazi’s plans were for the Jews, (being German.) Irena smuggled infants out in the bottom of the tool box she carried and she carried in the back of her truck a burlap sack, (for larger kids..) She also had a dog in the back that she trained to bark when the Nazi soldiers let her in and out of the ghetto. The soldiers of course wanted nothing to do with the dog and the barking covered the kids/infants noises.. During her time of doing this, she managed to smuggle out and save 2500 kids/infants. She was caught, and the Nazi’s broke both her legs, arms and beat her severely. Irena kept a record of the names of all the kids she smuggled out and kept them in a glass jar, buried under a tree in her back yard. After the war, she tried to locate any parents that may have survived it and reunited the family. Most had been gassed. Those kids she helped got placed into foster family homes or adopted.

 

Last year Irena was up for the Nobel Peace Prize … She was not selected.

Al Gore won, for a slide show on Global Warming.

Powerful message, especially the “cartoon.” Let us never forget!

63 years later



I
n MEMORIAM – 63 YEARS LATER


Please read the little cartoon carefully, it’s powerful. 
 

Then read the comments at the end.
I’m doing my small part by forwarding this message.
 

I hope you’ll consider doing the same.

In Memoriam

It is now more than 60 years after the Second World War in Europe ended This e-mail is being sent as a memorial chain, in memory of the six million Jews, 20 million Russians, 10 million Christians and 1,900 Catholic priests who were murdered, massacred, raped, burned, starved and humiliated with  

the German and Russian Peoples looking the other way!

Now, more than ever, with Iraq , Iran , and others, claiming the Holocaust to be ‘a myth,’ it’s imperative to make sure the world never forgets, because there are others who would like to do it again.

The Waves of Hawaii

Waimea Bay shore-break surfing pioneer, husband, and father of two, Clark Little has gained nationwide recognition for his photography with appearances on Good Morning America, Inside Edition, and many local news stations across the U.S.

It all started in 2007 when Clark ’s wife wanted a nice piece of art to decorate a wall. Voluntarily, Clark grabbed a camera,

jumped in the water, and starting snapping away

capturing the beauty and power of monstrous

Hawaiian waves from the inside out.

” Clark ’s view” is a unique view of the ocean

that most will only Be able to experience safely on land while studying one of Clark ’s photos.

Now with a camera upgrade and an itch to get that better shot,

Clark has taken this on full time

and has moved his office from land,

to the inside of a barrel.

Since the recent stir of Clark ’s work, his images have been run

On the Today Show, ABC World News Now, Nature’s Best Photography, Paris Match (France), La Vie(France), Hana Hou (Hawaiian Airlines) magazine, Surfer magazine,

Surfer’s Journal As well as multiple publishers and

newspapers in the U.S. And overseas.

These incredible images of waves in the Hawaiian Islands were taken by Clark Little, the number one photographer of surf..

He is dedicated to photographing the waves and has published a selection of his best images.

This shot captures sand from the ocean’s floor being swept up by a monstrous wave and resembles a sandstorm.


Little calls it the Sandmonster.


There were clouds of sand ten feet high and I’m standing there.
I’m holding on to my camera and my trigger as long as I can.
Then I have to jump into the cloud of sand to try to get out of danger’s way.


His fans pay as much as $4,000 for his gorgeous photos.

New Pledge of Allegiance

January 18, 2010 · Leave a Comment

WRITTEN BY A 15 yr. Old SCHOOL KID IN ARIZONA :


New Pledge of Allegiance (TOTALLY AWESOME) !

Since the Pledge of Allegiance
And
The Lord’s Prayer
Are not allowed in most
Public schools anymore
Because the word ‘God’ is mentioned…..
A kid in Arizona wrote the attached


NEW School prayer :


Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.

If Scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.

Our hair can be purple, orange or green,
That’s no offense; it’s a freedom scene.
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.

For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all.
In silence alone we must meditate,
God’s name is prohibited by the state..

We’re allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks..
They’ve outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.

We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
And the ‘unwed daddy,’ our Senior King.
It’s ‘inappropriate’ to teach right from wrong,
We’re taught that such ‘judgments’ do not belong.

We can get our condoms and birth controls,
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd.

It’s scary here I must confess,
When chaos reigns the school’s a mess.
So, Lord, this silent plea I make:
Should I be shot; My soul please take!
Amen

If you aren’t ashamed to do this,
Please pass this on. Jesus said,
‘If you are ashamed of me,
I will be ashamed of you before my Father.’

Not ashamed. Pass this on.

EXPENSIVE CAR CRASHES

January 8, 2010 · Leave a Comment



Most Expensive Car Wrecks
The biggest loser?

#10. Bugatti EB110 … $500,000

This 1992 $500,000 super-exotic Bugatti EB110 was being driven by a mechanic as part
of its annual checkup. He claims there was an oil slick on the road which caused him to
lose control and crash into a pole. The owner of the Bugatti is a famous “feel good” guru
named Emile Ratelband. Not sure how good he was feeling after this wreck.

#9. Pagani Zonda C12 S … $650,000

Only 15 Zonda C12 S were ever built, but that didn’t stop this owner from driving it like a mad
hatter. He crashed this beauty in the wee morning hours while driving in Hong Kong.

#8. Mercedes Benz SL 300 … $950,000

The SL 300 “Gullwing” represents the very finest ofMercedes. The owner thought
it would be a good idea to race this million dollar car on the streets of Mexico, at the
annual “La Carrera Panamericana” race – limited to classic cars produced before 1965.

#7. Jaguar XJ220 … $1.1 Million

The XJ220 once held the record for highest top speed for a production car (217 mph).

#6. Ferrari Enzo …. $1.3 Million

The most famous Ferrari Enzo crash (shown above) was at Malibu, California in 2005,
when the driver, “Fat Steven” Eriksson crashed the car at 196 mph.

#5. Bugatti Veyron … $1.6 Million

The Bugatti Veyron is the most expensive production car in history. Only 300 are
expected to be produced, and already two have crashed. Above is the first one.
The driver thought it was okay to speed at 100 mph in the rain.
He only had the car for one week.

#4. 1959 Ferrari 250 GT TDF … $1.65 Million

This extremely rare classic car, the 1959 Ferrari 250 GT “Tour de France”, crashed
into a wall at the Shell Ferrari-Maserati Historic Challenge in 2003.

#3.. Ferrari 250 GT Spyder … $10.9 Million

The record price for a 1961 250 GT California Spyder at auction was set on May 18, 2008
when a black one was sold for $10,894,900. So what is one doing buried in the sand?
The unlucky owner had it stored near the beach when a Hurricane hit.

#2. Ferrari 250 GTO … $28.5 Million

The 1962-64 Ferrari 250 GTO became the most valuable car in the world. In 2008 an
anonymous English buyer bought a 250 GTO at auction for a record $28.5 Million.
The crash above represents a car worth more than the combined value of all 14 Enzos
(see #6 above) involved in accidents. After a track event involving historic cars,
the owner rammed into the back of another car after traffic slowed down.

#1. Tiger Wood’s Escalade… $55 million and rising

The most expensive car crash ever?
Final estimate to be determined by Elin Nordegren!
