The World's Best Drinking Water

I've seen Isbre when I was at GUST's global island exhibition and I was tempted to buy it. Isbre is considered to be the world's best drinking water according to the United States Patent and Trademark office. The glacier is believed to be at least 5,000 years old - one of the oldest and purest water sources in the world.

Isbre's water source is located below the Hardangerjokulen Glacier at the end of the 100 mile long Hardanger fjord in Norway. Microbiological testing and independent laboratory analyses have shown that Isbre glacier spring water is purer than the rest. Isbre has the lowest total dissolved solids ever recorded for a natural, unprocessed water.

I've tried Isbre and compared it to Abraj and Aquafina. Well, to be honest it didn't taste that much of a difference between the other brands of water. However I did feel that Isbre was a bit purer and softer than the rest. Isbre costs 500 fils. I never tried a luxurious water before so this was my first experience and it will probably be my last one.

Cakewich Sandwich Cake Molt

Everyone loves a good sandwich, now you can have one for dessert too! It's a giant sandwich cake pan with a side order of fun! Molded from super-strong, dishwasher-safe & oven-safe pure silicone.
This is a creative way to have your dessert. It doesn't look mouthwatering to me but I would love to fill it up with caramel and try it some day.

Thanks EKR

Don't Talk While He/She Drives

These images capture the dangers of distracted driving, telling the story from the other side of the conversation. I love this Ad.

Playstation Move


PlayStation Move is the most immersive gaming experience possible. Using advanced motion sensors and the PlayStation®Eye USB Camera, your every movement is mimicked on-screen in breathtaking Blu-ray powered HD. Take core gaming to a new level or bring your whole family in on the adventure with a title line up that will excite every gamer. PlayStation Move is slated for worldwide launch in Q3/Q4 2010.

What an amazing new device from PS3! I hope it becomes more accurate and fun than Wii's controlling system. The challenge will be much stronger now between Sony's PS3 and Nintendo's Wii after the upcoming release of the Playstation Move.

A Real Beast Master - The Lion Whisperer

Kevin Richardson is an animal behaviorist and he's so close to animals that he can sleep with almost every kind of them specially big cats like lions, tigers, cheetahs, leopards and more. You may not believe these images put this man trust a lion over a human and spend his time with them as if they were cats not a predetor.

Kevin has had an accident were a 4 years old male lion attacked and start bitting him, but something about Kevin's passive reaction made the lion stops. Thats why he never engages wild animals if he feels there is something wrong.

He says that he can get close to any big cat under a year old and become friends with it, but he feels more safe and comfortable with animals he has known from birth.

It's kinda scary but I would love to have a lion as a friend !

You can watch a video of how Kevin managed to create this bonded friendship with lions by clicking here.
