My first NSFW post!

Today I came across an interesting video on Gizmodo definitely NSFW (not-safe-for-work) aka not for those below age of 18 and beware of who is around you when and if you decide to watch it!!! Well recently I have been watching any and all vimeo / youtube video posts on the blogs I follow to find content for mine. Anyways the video starts off weird (weird even for my standard which is highly weird enough) with an unusual style of animation and then Louisa Bertman (the narrator) proceeds to recount her own youthful obsession with obtaining the "perfect" set of breasts in this frenetic, sometimes explicit but ultimately touching and thought-provoking animated short. I agree with her message at the end of the video.

Hilarious and well done parody!

Downton Abbey Series 4

For those who have no watched Downton Abbey, it is a British period drama (drama which elaborates costumes, sets and properties are featured in order to capture the ambience of a particular era) created by Julian Fellowes. The series, set in the Yorkshire country estate of Downton Abbey, depicts the lives of the aristocratic Crawley family and their servants in the post-Edwardian era - with the great events in history (such as sinking of the RMS Titanic, the outbreak of World War I, the Spanish influenza pandemic, the Marconi scandal, the Interwar period, and the Irish Free State) having an effect on their lives and on the British social hierarchy.

After 3 successful series and a movie/special, it is said to be coming back on screen on January 5, 2014 - yes it is in quite a while, but nonetheless there is plenty of time to watch the show and be caught up with all its intricacies.

Game of Hearts

(Spoiler alert!) So as to avoid spilling out too many spoilers, the video is a romantic comedy rendition of Sansa Stark and Tyrion Lannister from Game of Thrones, and also staring a special new actor - watch the video to find out who!

Tesla Model S - The advanced crusher of safety standards

 

Tesla Model S, a car so far advanced in both luxury and technologies that one could say this is from another world entirely! "Introducing a car so advanced it sets the new standard premium performance" - Tesla. While one would expect this to be the typical catch-phrase used to attract buyers, it was a shock for the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) when doing the safety testing. Tesla Model S is soo safe that it crushed all the safety standards and earned an overall score of 5.4 out of 5 stars. During the rollover test, the darn car was soo stubborn to rollover nicely via the conventional means that special means had to be introduced. Here is the link containing more details about the pain caused to NHTSA by Tesla Model S. Frankly, I think parts of Nokia 3310 must have been used in building this car.

The features and designs comes at a luxurious pricing north of $60k, depending on the model, additional features, and Federal Tax Credit (Electric vehicle incentives range from $7.5k to $15k depending on your state and offset of the down payment - learn more here).
