LIVERPOOL EYE CANDY

Just one photo and then only to show that Liverpool,England has produced more then just The Beatles.

What this country needs is more of this and far less of judges as in the following story.  I’ll drink to that. Cheers.

Better Than Nothing

A hidden chamber deep within the Great Pyramid of Giza revealed a stunning secret last month: strange hieroglyphs written in red paint and sealed within the structure for 4,500 years.

And now one researcher may have unlocked that mystery.

“The markings are hieratic numerical signs. They read from right to left, meaning 100, 20, 1. The builders simply recorded the total length of the shaft: 121 cubits,” Luca Miatello, an independent researcher who specializes on ancient Egyptian mathematics, told Discovery News.

The markings, red ochre figures painted on the floor of the hidden “Queen’s Chamber” deep within the pyramid, corresponds to the length of the shaft leading to them, Miatello said.

But there’s nothing “simple” about this discovery, said Shaun Whitehead of the Djedi Project, the archaeology group that found the hidden chamber through a special, shaft-spelunking robot.

“If the figures are numbers and they are the precise measurement of the shaft, then it’s amazing,” he said. “It would be a huge, rare clue to what the architect was thinking. For example, why take the trouble to precisely measure and record the length if the shaft was only used for a mundane purpose or simply abandoned?”

The shaft, one of four leading deep within the pyramid, was first discovered in 1872.

Two weeks ago:

A robot explorer designed and built by University of Leeds engineers, in collaboration with Scoutek, UK and Dassault Systèmes, France, has revealed hieroglyphs beyond a narrow tunnel inside the Great Pyramid of Khufu at Giza. The 4500-year-old markings, seen on video images gathered by the Djedi robot expedition, may give clues to how this part of the pyramid was built.

The Great Pyramid of Khufu is known to contain four narrow tunnels – two leading from the King’s Chamber and two from the Queen’s Chamber. However, scholars are unable to agree on what they were used for. This is partly due to problems researchers face getting into these narrow spaces.

This is the same tunnel - the tunnels were called air shafts when I was younger - that those guys ran those tiny tank tracked robots up a couple years ago. The north shaft (dotted line in the pyramid drawing above) There was a much ballyhooed documentary on it ... I think they found a stick. Seriously, there was a stick in the tunnel. Don’t recall if they retrieved it and got a carbon date, which would then prove how old the pyramid is. As I recall, the robots didn’t work right. Or the explorers - they were Swiss, weren’t they? - visas ran out, or they misbehaved. Can’t recall the details, but that mission ended and sometime later somebody made a different robot that went back up the air shaft. And found a block at the end of the shaft, that had two copper handles on it. End of adventure. About a year or so later another robot mission went up, and this time drilled a hole in the block. And found that there was an air space behind it. End of adventure. And then another robot (this is getting tiring isn’t it?) went up and stuck a flexible endoscopic camera in the hole, and looked around. And took some pictures.

And that brings us up to date. Here is a composite of those pictures. Note the line on the floor. The 3 splotches off to the right are hieroglyphs, and the deciphering of them is today’s bit of news.

Read from the lower right to the upper left, these are the symbols for 100, 20, and 1. So the shaft is 121 cubits long from it’s beginning to this line. Hey, more precision building from those ancient Egyptians. And now we have a physical example that lets’ us know exactly how long an Egyptian cubit is, but whether they used a regular one or an oversized “royal” one, I don’t know.

Yee haa!! Wait, that’s a bit of archaeology isn’t it? And it’s Thursday! That can mean only one thing: this must be an A&R Thursday post! Woo hoo!!

Going Green: Recycled Eye Candy

Not a recycled picture, just using the same model once again. Even making silly faces I think she is so adorable.

Not that the rest of her is anywhere close to shabby either ...

Yup, still a lack of drop dead gorgeous elegant redheads. I won’t besmirch things and post the dye-job wannabes and the porn skanks. Porn angels, Ok. But not the skanks.

GET ME OUT OF HERE ...

Speaking of Looking Familiar

Hey, remember her?



best recruiting poster evah!


This picture was all over the internet 4 years or so ago. Women in uniform, Women of the IDF, girls with guns, etc. A heart stoppingly adorable young woman serving her country.

Well, um, it didn’t happen by chance.

The young woman’s name is Agam Rodberg, and before joining the IDF she was one of the top teen fashion models in Israel. They have a universal draft over there: graduate high school and go do your hitch in the service. No exceptions. Well, that’s the theory. The reality is that almost one in four young Izzies avoids serving. Draft dodgers. Some of those young folks have a bit of a legitimate excuse; they are out there earning fame and fortune from a young age, and a couple years absence could be a career killer. Others (women) who get married very young do not have to serve. The IDF thought about it, and made an honest effort for youths like that. They devised a special “light duty” branch of the service, with unlimited time off for performances and shows. So all the musicians, actors, models, and generally famous types can fulfill their service requirement with the least amount of career interruption. Kudos to the IDF for being upfront about a practice which many countries do surreptitiously.

After the special service program for exceptional athletes and gifted musicians, the IDF has begun working on a similar program for exceptional celebrities.

Athletes and musicians recognized by the army as highly talented are given the possibility of enlisting to an “easy” military service, which enables them to continue training and practicing while serving in the IDF.

The new plan was created in a bid to deal with the growing rate of draft dodging, which has recently reached 25% of all youth. One of the main problems identified by the officers was the shirking of military duty by the teenagers’ role models, particularly young artists who have chosen not to serve in the army in order to pursue their career.

“We must make an effort to enlist the public opinion leaders,” a senior officer said Monday.

That was 4 years ago. Did it work? Hmm, maybe we should ask swimwear model and former Leonardo DiCaprio arm candy Bar Rafaeli who avoided serving by a quickie sham marriage and divorce ...

Given her history with the Israeli Defence Forces, some may perceive Bar Refaeli’s latest photoshoot as a bold manoeuvre.

In what may be seen as an act of defiance, the Israel-born model poses topless for GQ Italia in nothing but a helmet and shorts - seven years after managing to dodge national service in her home country.

While military service is a must for both men and women Israelis once they reached 18, it emerged in 2007 how Bar had managed to avoid doing a three year spell by marrying an acquaintance.
...
According to Jewish news site ynet.com, Bar said she didn’t regret getting into an arranged marriage to avoid national service.

‘I don’t regret not enlisting, because it paid off big time,’ she is reported as saying. ‘That’s just the way it is, celebrities have other needs. I hope my case has influenced the army. Why is it good to die for our country? What, isn’t it better to live in New York? ‘Why should 18-year-old kids have to die? It’s dumb that people have to die so that I can live in Israel.’
...
[ In 2009 ] a feud developed between Refaeli and fellow Israeli model Esti Ginzburg, who served in the army and criticised Bar’s avoidance tactics.

But this was a post about the girl behind the salute. She was very successful as a teen model; she isn’t insanely tall or mind numbingly beautiful or skinny as a stick. No, she’s of normal height, cute as a button, and she has a damn good figure. In other words, she’s one of the best normal girls going. And that sells very well too. Looks like she tried her hand at acting too, and did a few TV commercials. Where is she now? I have no idea. Maybe she’s out of the Army and has gone back to modeling. But she still shows up at the top of various celebrity sites, even some of the more unusual ones.

Expand Your Horizons

If you were an Australian guy in his late teens to early 20s, this girl would probably be one of the ladies who helped imprint your heterosexuality. She’s the pretty girl you’ve grown up with. Indiana Evans has been doing commercials and TV shows Down Under since she was a little kid, and now she’s got a slew of pop music videos out there as well, which are a bit unusual in that they all seem to be barely a minute long. And a short film or two. Right now I think she’s the lead in a teener show called H₂O: Just Add Water, in which she plays an ordinary teenage girl who is also a part time mermaid with magical powers. And a rock star. Because life isn’t complex enough when you’re 17. I think. Hey, what do I know about Aussie TV? Hannah Montana with a Splash. She turns 21 this summer.

And here she does a pretty decent 54 second rocker on her show. Guess they ran out of lyrics or something.
