After 12: Meet The World's Best Bartender

Reblogged from EPIC FAIL Funny Videos and Epic Fail Funny Pictures:

Alexander Shtifanov is his name, and he recently wowed crowds and judges on Ukraine's Got Talent with ridiculous feats of flipping and pouring, all while not spilling a drop. After watching him, I felt compelled to practice bottle flipping a bit myself, because I don't think making alcohol disappear qualifies as a particularly rare talent.

Alien Workshop’s Masterplan Of The 90′s – 2000′s

A great ad campaign in its day by unique skateboard developer, Alien Workshop. The contrasting values and minimalist style of the icons they used was pure gold. Here are some of their best from that era.

Eastern Orthodox Iconography

Growing up as  Ukrainian Orthodox, I often looked upon and pondered the icons that were literally everywhere. The composition and actual illustration of these pieces was incredible. This started my fascination with iconography and still to this day fuels it. Hopefully these images will get someone else hooked as well.

Here is a collection of some excellent pieces to give a wide example.

Caviar Harvesting In The Astrakhan Region Of Russia, 1960

A while back I picked up an old 1940s Zenith radio.  It uses vacuum tubes unlike radios today.  Of course when I found mine it didn't work and was well worn.  Here's a pic of it when I bought it.  The wood veneer had been damaged in multiple places and it appeared that the edge had suffered a little water damage.

This re-post is about a man and his Zenith. I know the feeling owning a 1963 Imperial/Telefunken console type radio. I think it is especially important to note the work done to the interior electrical chassis and very nice orange capacitors to switch out the cardboard ones. I will be posting an article in the coming month about my own radio and the quirks of restoring it, I felt this made a great intro to it. Great job David!
