Amazing pinup Art from Mr. Rolf Armstrong



Some of our most Favorite pinups from Rolf Armstrong

















HUGE Head Covered in Sticky Chewed Gum - Right in the middle of town - EWW!




Artist Doug Coupland created this seven-foot black, resin and polyester sculpture of his own head and then encouraged the public to engage in his work by applying their own chewed gum on it. The statue, called Gumhead, was put in place on May 31 and sat on Howe Street outside the Vancouver Art Gallery until September 1. Slowly but surely it was colorfully dotted with pieces of gum. Towards the end, you could hardly see the figure's face.

The village of Yakutsk - Coldest Inhabited Village on Earth!



Welcome to the coldest village on Earth

The Russian village of Yakutsk in Oymyakon
Average temperature for January standing at -50C
 The village is known as the 'Pole of Cold'. Daily problems that come with living in Oymyakon include pen ink freezing, glasses freezing to people's faces and batteries losing power. Locals are said to leave their cars running all day for fear of not being able to restart them

Oymyakon is 750 metres above sea level, which means that the length of a day varies from 3 hours in December to 21 hours in the summer

Oymyakon village at dawn with a plume of smoke rising from the heating plant. Most people still burn coal and wood for heat. When coal deliveries are irregular the power station starts burning wood. If the power ceases, the town shuts down in about five hours, and the pipes freeze and crack
