Samsung Galaxy S III explodes, injures 18 year old girl.

An exploding cellphone is no joke. A Samsung Galaxy S III exploded in the pants of 18 year-old Fanny Schlatter, and as you can see, it did plenty of damage to her thigh not to mention the handset. Now, we've seen people claim that their phone exploded out of nowhere only to find out later that the device was put in the microwave to cover up the fact that it had been dropped in the toilet first. Looking at this situation, one can see that this is not the case here.

There isn't much information on what caused the explosion, but the victim's paints had to be cut to prevent her from sustaining further damage.

The explosion took place at the girl's place of employment and Samsung Switzerland said that it is investigating and will probably send the phone back to Korea for a an examination.

Unbelievable Fact : World's 7th Largest Diamond was used as a paperweight!!!

              

The Jacob Diamond is a large diamond, ranked seventh in the world, known earlier as the Imperial or Great White Diamond. It is believed to be the Victoria Diamond, owned by the Nizam of Hyderabad and currently owned by the Government of India.

It is cut in a rectangular cushion-cut, with 58 facets, and measures 39.5 mm long, 29.25 mm wide and 22.5 mm deep. The diamond weighs 184.5 carats (36.90 g).

Unlike the famous Koh-i-Noor, the Jacob diamond can be branded as a non-violent diamond, one which has changed hands only twice in the history of its existence.However, it only came into the possession of India after its amalgamation of the Hyderabad state into the Republic of India.

Youth rapes, marries minor, spared of jail term.

A youth, convicted for raping a minor girl with whom he had eloped and later married, has been spared of the jail term by a Delhi court which said he has "realised his mistake" and sentencing him would "disrupt" his married life."The convict is sentenced to the period of imprisonment already gone," additional sessions judge Virender Bhat said, while observing that the youth himself had come forward to plead guilty so he should be handed a lesser sentence instead of a minimum of seven years for the offence of rape."The convict has himself come forward to admit his guilt which implies that his conscience has pricked him and he has realised his mistake.""In my opinion, the conduct of the prosecutrix herself in the whole affair, coupled with the accused himself coming forward to plead guilty, thus showing utmost sense of remorse and respect for the law, constitute special reasons for awarding lesser sentence upon the convict than the prescribed minimum period of seven years for the offence under section 376 (rape) of the IPC," the judge said.The youth was named in a charge sheet under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POSCO) Act after he was arrested by the police in June 2012 on the allegation that he kidnapped a 16-year-old girl, one of his relatives, and had raped her.However, after charges were framed against the youth, the girl had told the court that the accused is her husband and she had willingly eloped with him to marry and now they were living together as husband and wife."The convict is a young boy just 22 years of age. It has also come on record that the couple has been blessed with a girl child. Therefore, in my opinion, if the convict is sent to jail for some more period at this time, it will create hardship and mental agony to the prosecutrix herself who shall be left with no source of income and would not be able to maintain the infant child," the court said."The happy family of the prosecutrix and the convict would be disrupted and thrown into disarray," it said.

16 Year-Old Brazilian Guy Died By Very Unusual Death

This is a very unusual death , a 16 year old brazalian guy died by mast__bating 42 times without stopping,boy lived in in Rubiato town, in Goiás region, Brazil.

His mother told to a local newspaper interview that she had already known about his son’s addiction and that she wanted to take him to the doctor, but the decision came too late.

The young man began to m__turbate at midnight and spent the whole night to compulsively touch himself. At school, his classmates commented on the boy’s problem and some said he asked them to connect to the webcam for being observed. They further said that his attraction to women was extreme; he was attracted to all kind of women, regardless of texture physics, color and age.In his room a large amount of adult stuff was found, including photographs and videos of women that were saved on his PC.

Before and After Makeup Celebs: Good, Bad, and the Ugly!

#15 Bombshell Mila Kunis Boldy Steps Out with No Makeup

We can't argue Mila Kunis' bombshell looks. But in this photo without makeup, she looks like she's dragging.

Simply put, Kunis' face looks droopy. And without makeup, her eyebrows seem all out of whack. Don't you agree? Her arch is too arched or at the wrong spot. It looks like she's pulling up on her forehead. But, you can see in the red carpet photo, her arch is nearly identical and she looks normal. Go figure, makeup disguises a weird eyebrow arch!
 

#14 Kimora Lee Simmons Shows her True Face

Kimora Lee Simmons is not her on-point usual self below left. We love going for a natural look, but that doesn't have to mean no effort at all.

Simmons, who makes a living from her fashion and beauty lines, not too mention a reality show on the Style Network, clearly put no effort into this look. You would think celebs would have it figured out that every time they step outside, there will be photographers. Wouldn't you want to put your best face forward? Kimora really is a natural beauty, so a swipe of gloss and some mascara would have worked wonders here. She does look like she's in mom-mode though, doesn't she? If that's the case, props for putting the kids first!

#13 Demi Lovato is Looking Good!

Demi Lovato recently took to Twitter to encourage women to be brave and go without makeup for the day. Lovato even posted a picture of herself sans makeup or any type of filter.

The star, who's life seems to be turned around after battles with depression and cutting, showed off a layered haircut as well. You can even see some freckles most of the world was unaware Lovato had. The picture on the right shows a nude lip and long false lashes. She shows off a trendy fun side with glitzy green liner and large hoops. For a natural look with just a hint of makeup, use primer, pink blush and a red lip stain. Kudos Demi!


  

#12 Madonna Shows her Age

Madonna's no-makeup look really is proof that underneath it all, she's just like us. Of course, she's just like us with a fatter wallet and donning more designer labels.

It's safe to say that most of us feel Madonna has aged well. However, her non-makeup look shows the singer with dull skin that appears to be starting to sag. Madge doesn't have to go full-out glam every time she steps out, but how about a 5-minute face? Some primer, a pinkish gloss, bronzer or blush to contour her cheekbones and some mascara who have worked wonders here. Remember that next time you're about to step out in public with a naked face! Impressions are everything, put some effort into your look!

#11 Katherine Heigl Bares All

We love how fresh-faced Katherine Heigl looks in her no-makeup pic. It kind of makes us feel like we're "normal."

The best thing about Heigl's made up face is that it truly only enhances her natural beauty. While her public appearance faces vary, she looks great with bronzer, nudish-pink lip gloss and a light smoky eye. To bring out her best however on her day's off, her small almond-shaped eyes would benefit from a couple of coats of mascara. Aside from that, she can go bare without fear. And why shouldn't she, even Hollywood Elite deserve a day off from time to time.

#10 Kathy Griffin's Lashless Look

Controversial Kathy Griffin brings fuel to the makeup fire with this before and after. This version is scary because once again, it shows off an almost unrecognizable celeb without out her camera-ready makeup.

Not that there's anything wrong with Griffin stepping out without her makeup on. But this version couldn't even win a Kathy Griffin look-alike contest. Her auburn tresses seem to always complement her public appearance makeup. The red-carpet photo shows off just how important the eyes are. For tiny ones like Griffin's, be sure to use false lashes. Her barely there lashes on the left dramatically age her.

#9 Two Versions of Kim Kardashian

What would a celeb makeup story be without Kim Kardashian? We've seen hundreds of pictures of her without makeup, all of which reveal a very normal look.

Kim doesn't ever appear to be hiding any major flaws. But her highly publicized made-up self shows us all just what makeup can do. Well, makeup and false lashes. Well, makeup, false lashes and a spray tan. She is beautiful, but Kim does have two very different looks. Red carpet Kim and regular Kim look nothing alike. But, maybe we wouldn't either if we were walking down a red carpet filled with paparazzi?!?

#8 Katy Perry Shows Off Classic Girl Next Door

Thanks Katy Perry for making the rest of us look bad. Her non-makeup look is still flawless. Classic girl-next-door!

Yes, we see her on the right. She's stunning. But there's something even more stunning about a girl who looks good not made up. Even with a bold lip and well played up eyes, she doesn't look unrecognizable from her non-madeup self. Her makeup artist deserves a huge pat-on-the-back for letting her true beauty stand out, and not covering it up!

#7 A Washed Out Kelly Clarkson

Oh man, we hate doing this, because who doesn't love former American Idol winner Kelly Clarkson? However, with ultra-bleached locks, the singer is way too washed out without makeup.

Clarkson's strong features could likely stand out fine on their own. Meaning, she would still be a knockout without makeup...until she bleached her hair that is. Super-blonde hair completely washes her out and she needs some face paint to liven things up a bit. Her five-minute face for blond hair should include foundation, lip color, a soft bronzer and mascara. Even though this isn't her best look, we give her props for somehow looking washed out and youthful at the same time. She looks like a 16 year-old about to get her driver's license!

#6 Could the Real Eva Longoria Please Stand Up?

Eva Longoria is one of those women you love to hate just for the reason that she still looks gorgeous without makeup. However, is it just us or does she not look anything like the made-up Eva we know?

Yes, there's obvious things we can tell Eva enhances with makeup. Foundation clearly evens her skin tone and mascara brings out barely-there eyelashes. Maybe it's her gorgeous smile, but we still think the actress is beautiful sans makeup. However, her no makeup self bares no resemblance to her made-up self. Makeup should enhance, not completely change one's appearance! Her non-made-up self is closer to a Jessica Alba/Vanessa Minnillo-Lachey hybrid!

#5 Sarah Michelle Geller's Look Proves Vampire Fighting is a Hard Gig

Poor Sarah Michelle Gellar! This photo shows of some dark, dark undereye circles!

I guess having less-than-pretty photos hitting cyberspace is one of the (maybe the only) downfalls of celebrity-ism. But honestly, it looks like Sarah Michelle has had a night reliving her "Buffy" years fighting off vampires. More realistically, it does look like she's just completed a workout. Her skin tone isn't awful. But, if she fears pho-togs, some undereye concealer, a pink lip gloss and little blush would work wonders. Among other things, her look on the right is achieved with either lots of bronzer or tanner, a pink pout, and mascara.

#4 Just Another Day for Amanda Seyfried

Amanda Seyfried is actually spotted quite frequently minus her makeup. She always looks like she's getting over a late night when we see her bare-faced however.

Seyfried is a natural beauty and her typical red-carpet makeup really livens her up. Whether it's hiding undereye circles or highlighting her features, her flawless face is achieved with red lipstick and likely a good foundation and highlighter. A few coats of mascara also help to open up her eyes. Back to the red lipstick though - it's in this season. There's a shade out there perfect for each of us. Find yours because that pop of color really does wake-up your outer appearance.

#3 Pink has us Wondering, Who's that Girl?

Wow! Pop rocker Pink is almost unrecognizable sans makeup. We promise however, it really is her.

One good thing for Pink is the fact that she can likely step outside and avoid fans and paparazzi when not donning makeup. Although she lost her actual hot pink locks years ago, the "Blow Me One Last Kiss" singer has always publicly had a very distinguished look. We rarely see her without bold eye makeup and usually a bold lip. It appears one thing she never leaves home without, however, is a smile. Good for her!

#2 Kate Moss: Something to Actually Cry About

It appears Kate Moss, known for her on-again-off-again demeanor really does have something to be outraged over. Mainly, this barefaced photo!

To be fair, this isn't the most flattering pose the model has ever struck. We likely all have numerous photos we wish were never taken. We also secretly hope they aren't depicting the "real" us. Ms. Moss probably feels exactly that way over this non-airbrushed pic. At the same time, her "after" picture shows the reason we all should love a little foundation and a contoured cheek. Moss proves she's still gorgeous!

#1 Heidi Klum in Mom Mode

This German beauty proves below she's not always ready for the runway. But on a family day out, we suppose we'll give her a pass.

One things this proves however, is that a little makeup can work wonders! In the photo on the right, Klum combines a nude-toned lip with silvery smoky eye. A soft pink blush and natural looking highlighter adorn her cheeks. And of course, the gorgeous smile doesn't hurt anything either. In case you're wondering if makeup really does make a difference, just check out Klum's day versus evening look! From super-mom to super-model in no time!

10 Most Unusual Deaths In Human History

We all are aware of the fact that death is going to lay its icy cold hands on every living creature irrespective of cast, creed, financial background or any other criteria based on which humans distinguish themselves from another. The only thing that remains uncertain is its coming. But it is certain that no one can escape from its clutches. Death may be due a number of reasons like aging, malnutrition, diseases or murder. It may even approach an individual in a manner that is very unusual, something that no one could have ever imagined. Today’s article focuses on such unusual deaths which at first may seem hard to believe but in reality have actually taken place.

10 Most Unusual Deaths In Human History.


Did you ever hear about a person who died because of eating too much food?
brutal death

During 1771, King of Sweden, Adolf Fredrick, died because of digestion problems as he was not able to digest the meal comprising of a lobster, sauerkraut, caviar, smoked herring and champagne topped off with 14 servings of his favorite dessert of hetvägg served in a bowl of hot milk. He is remembered as “the king who ate himself to death” by the Swedish school children.

Did you ever hear about a person who died due to ingestion of a burning lead?
brutal death

Back to 1755, a person named Henry Hall, aged 94 years, who was the oldest-known member of the Hall Family of Lighthouse Keepers that kept lights around the English and Welsh coasts, lost his life due to ingestion of a melted lead. It all started when a spark in the lamp had set the roof alight and eventually the whole of Rudyard’s Tower was engulfed in flames. He tried putting the fire out but eventually was forced to retreat down the tower. Not knowing what was lying in his destiny he looked up at the lighthouse when a molten led directly fell into his throat that later caused his death. That piece of lead is now retained in the collections of the National Museums of Scotland.

Draco, Athenian law-maker, was smothered to death by gifts of cloaks showered upon him by appreciative citizens at a theatre on Aegina.

A person who hoped to get his own death by a bolt of lightning.
brutal death

The American revolutionary – James Otis Jr. hoped his death to come by a bolt of lightning and often told his friends and relatives about it. On May 23, 1783 suddenly his wish was fulfilled when the lightning struck the chimney of a friend’s house in whose doorway he was standing and he is reported to have told his sister "My dear sister, I hope, when God Almighty in his righteous providence shall take me out of time into eternity that it will be by a flash of lightning". He died at an age of 58.

A Man was shot with a bullet in his forehead and die after 67 days.
brutal death

During the year 1877, an incident took place at Deadwood, South Dakota on 14th January 1877 where a person named David Lunt was shot in the saloon fight. A person named Tom Smith suddenly entered the saloon with a handgun and affirmed that if anybody moved he would shoot them. Con Stapleton (group member with David Lunt) grabbed Tom Smith and tried to disarm him. During the course of action the bullet was shot from the handgun and it hit David Lunt and struck his forehead. David survived the incident. Thereafter, he started doing his every day routine chores when all of a sudden after a period of 67 days he felt a terrible headache and died on 22nd march 1877. As per the autopsy report, David died due to the bullet shot but nobody could determine the reason as to how he survived for such a long period after the incident.

A person who died because of gulping down a toothpick.
brutal death

Well during the year 1941 an American novelist and short story writer – Sherwood Anderson died because of swallowing a toothpick during a party. The incident took place on the cruise which was going towards South America. Anderson and his wife were on the cruise liner Santa Lucia when Anderson experienced abdominal pain and was taken to a hospital in Colón, Panama where he died on 8th march 1941. His autopsy report showed that he had unintentionally gulped down a toothpick while eating hors d'oeuvres or either from martini olive.

A person who died because a bird came and hit the driver on his face which resulted in his losing the control.
brutal death

The Formula One race driver, Alan Stacey was killed during the Belgian Grand Prix race in the year 1960. He was driving Lotus 18-Climax and his car crashed at a speed of 190 km/h (120 mph) because of a bird which flew down and hit his face. Alan had an artificial leg and he conspired with his team mates to fool medical examination. Alan died within a few minutes after the car crash. The Lotus is still in the hands of the Stacey Family and it makes occasional appearances on the track.

A person who died in order to prove that his window glass was “indestructible”.
brutal death

 An old public prosecutor named Garry Hoy died in order to prove his that his glass was “indestructible”. The unpleasant incident took place in the year 1993 when Garry threw himself against the window of a small meeting room which was located on the 24th floor of Toronto – Dominion Centre just to prove a group of visitors about his window glass being “indestructible”. The tragedy took place when the glass did not break but the glass popped out of the window frame. He is known for his situation of death.


Have you ever heard about the person who accidentally  hit himself from his baseball bat? 
brutal death

Considered by historians to be their first superstar in American baseball, Jim Creighton died as he suffered from ruptured abdominal hernia while hitting a home run. He swung his baseball too hard that he injured himself and ruptured his bladder which caused him internal injury. The incident took place on 14th October 1862 when Jim was playing a match against the Union of Morrisania. He died after 4 days of injury in his home on 18th October 1862.

He had a compulsive fear of being poisoned and would only eat the food prepared by his wife Adele. Adele was hospitalized for six months and could no longer prepare food for Gödel. Due to the fear of being poisoned he refused to eat food and died due to hunger. He weighed 29.48 kg (65 pounds) when he died on 14th January 1978. Malnutrition and inanition caused by personality disorder was reported in his death certificate.

A 70-Year-Old Looks Like a 30-Year-Old. Credits To Home-Grown Vegetables And Rainwater.

We stay so preoccupied in our day to day life that the thought of growing up and aging doesn't even cross our minds. Even if it does, we are too busy to take steps to prevent our face from wrinkles or prevent our hair from turning grey. However, there is a lady who deserves insurmountable credit for maintaining herself like a girl in her youth.


 
Seventy year old Annette Larkins, a resident of Miami-Dade Country, Florida assures she has been married for 54 years. She has no shame in walking with her husband who is 70 years of age while people stay rapt in disbelief on finding out that the girl who looks like the man’s daughter is actually his wife.

The secret behind her charming youthful looks is her Fountain of Youth. Fountain of Youth is her backyard garden wherein Annette grows all kinds of vegetables and fruits.Her raw vegetarian diet has made her look fabulous even in her old age.


 
Annette admits that her diet comprises only of raw fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds. It seems strange that a woman whose husband once owned a meat factory in 1960’s decided to turn vegan. Furthermore, she made another change in her diet. That was to eat unprocessed food. Since then, only raw fruits and vegetables go beyond her lips.  More so, Annette also collects rain water to drink and nurture her garden.
The woman is absolutely healthy in all respects. She never takes a pill while her husband pops a few for diabetes and high blood pressure. Raw vegan diet does have an advantage as I can see.
Annette has written two books entitled Journey to Health and she has also produced a DVD describing her daily nutritional routine.
While her husband speaks proudly of how excellent his wife is in building computers, making her own clothes and of course staying as charming as ever, Annette takes no modesty in claiming that she is an early morning person who wakes up at 5.30 and gets going for the day.

In 1998 ,Sony Accidentally Sold 700,000 Camcorders That Could See Through People's Clothes

Yes You heard it right,in year 1998 Sony sold 700,00 camcorder that had technology to see through your clothes,well what was that? lets check out..


The cameras had special lenses that use infrared light (IR) to see through some types of clothing,such as on dark colored, thin clothing - like swimsuits. The main factor is how well the fabric absorbs IR light waves. It's not for regular digicams, but rather for camcorders with a IR night vision mode, and the resolution is low.


 
Sony recalled the camcorders when they found out about this, but the night vision camcorders that they subsequently released,some people figured out how to modify the camera to get the see-through-clothing functionality  and hundreds of the modified cameras are for sale on the Internet.The camera with all the filters sells for about $700 brand new, and is easy to obtain.Sony said it has no responsibility for altered or modified products.A lot of people have used this technology for wrong purposes.

Chinese Guy Sold His Kidney To Buy iPhone And iPad.

Hell yes!! you read it right a chinese student sold his kidney to buy iPhone and iPad.

His name is Xiao Zheng and he is a student in Anhui Province,China. He sold his Kidney for around $3400 to an unknown man to buy iPhone and iPad.The hospital where the operation apparently took place claims to know nothing of the operation and a man to whom the kidney was sold vanished without a trace. But this dude's now got a new iPhone 4 and iPad 2 to play with, so good luck to him .




Now authorities have indicted five people in central China for involvement in illegal organ trading after a teenager sold one of his kidneys to buy an iPhone and an iPad.

Charge Your Phone With Urine? Scientists Say It's Possible Using Microbial Fuel Cells


Often forget your phone charger? Well, scientists in the United Kingdom have devised a way to conceivably charge a mobile phone with something for users on the go - or, more aptly, for users who have to go.

Researchers at the University of the West of England say it's possible to charge a phone with urine by using microbial fuel cells (MFCs), which convert waste into electricity.

The team tested the potential of urine power to energize a Samsung mobile device, effectively using the mechanism to make a phone call, send texts and browse the Internet, according to the Press Association. So far tests have been successful, but the team still needs to perfect the method so that MFCs can provide a full battery charge.

Ioannis Ieropoulos, Ph.D., a senior research fellow at the university, compared the unusual design to other alternative forms of charging, such as solar power.

"The beauty of this fuel source is that we are not relying on the erratic nature of the wind or the sun, we are actually re-using waste to create energy," he said, according to the Telegraph.

The research is part of an ongoing project funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and U.K. Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council.

Though Ieropoulos has labeled the urine-powered charger a "world first," the concept of turning human excrement into battery power has been introduced in the past.

In 2005, scientists in Singapore unveiled a battery that could be activated by biological fluids. Yet, unlike the U.K. team's tech, the Singapore team designed the urine-powered battery with the intention of designing a disposable power source for medical kits, National Geographic reports.

However, it seems, scientists have struggled to apply such urine power practically. As one chemical engineer pointed out in November, after three teenage girls unveiled a urine-powered generator, such mechanisms fail to provide enough energy output to match the input.

So while a urine-powered phone charger sounds like a resourceful -- albeit gross - renewable energy source, it may not be feasible for the typical mobile user.


>> BRISTOL SCIENTISTS USE URINE TO CHARGE MOBILE PHONES! 

Scientists have developed a way of charging mobile phones using urine.


Dr Ioannis Ieropoulos, from the Bristol Robotics Laboratory, claimed harnessing power from "the ultimate waste product" was "a world first".

"One product that we can be sure of an unending supply is our own urine," he said.

"By harnessing this power as urine passes through a cascade of microbial fuel cells (MFCs), we have managed to charge a Samsung mobile phone."

The scientists believe the technology has the future potential to be installed in bathrooms to harness the urine and produce sufficient electricity to power showers, lighting or razors as well as mobile phones. 'Smart toilet'

Dr Leropoulos said: "The beauty of this fuel source is that we are not relying on the erratic nature of the wind or the sun, we are actually re-using waste to create energy.

"So far the microbial fuel power stack that we have developed generates enough power to enable SMS messaging, web browsing and to make a brief phone call.

"Making a call on a mobile phone takes up the most energy, but we will get to the place where we can charge a battery for longer periods.

"The concept has been tested and it works - it's now for us to develop and refine the process so that we can develop MFCs to fully charge a battery."

The MFC is an energy converter which turns organic matter directly into electricity via the metabolism of live micro-organisms.

The electricity is a by-product of the microbes' natural life cycle, so the more they eat things like urine the more energy they generate and for longer periods of time.

Dr Ieropoulos said: "We are currently bidding for funding to work alongside partners in the US and South Africa to develop a smart toilet. Watch this space."

The robotics laboratory is a collaboration between the University of the West of England and the University of Bristol.
