Conceptul de la BMW vrea sa revolutioneze industria auto




BMW a prezentat un exercitiu de design cu totul deosebit, conceptul GINA, o masina de doua locuri cu caroserie din matarial textil, extrem de flexibila, usor de montat si capabila sa-si schimbe forma. Dupa ce acum cateva luni au aparut stiri despre un supercar din lemn, BMW spune ca si textilele pot servi drept caroserie, desi pare imposibil.

BMW a inceput constructia conceptului GINA Light Visionary Model pornind de la ideea ca o caroserie nu trebuie sa fie neaparat din metal. Trebuie facut ceva deosebit, si-au spus germanii, si au prezentat un concept cu o caroserie din material textil care imbraca o structura metalica mobila, un schelet metalic cu o serie de articulatii ce pot schimba forma automobilului.
Seful de design al BMW, Chris Bangle, spune ca o caroserie din material textil are avantajele ei. Se poate modifica, e mai usoara, se poate confectiona din materiale pentru a caror fabricatie se consuma putina energie. GINA inseamna geometrie, forme si o modalitate infinita de a le combina.

Pe timpul zilei farurile pot fi acoperite de caroseria extrem de flexibila, iar noaptea, cand este nevoie de ele, sa fie din nou descoperite, prin plierea usoara a invelisului textil.

Back in May, rumors ran wild that Brett Ratner might be directing a big screen adaptation of the popular video game series God of War. Bad news for video game fans, today’s MGM press release for the Robocop reboot contained the following juicy tidbit:

“David Self’s credits include 13 Days and Road To Perdition. He wrote God of War for Universal, to which Brett Ratner is attached to direct, and was a writer on Universal’s Wolfman currently in production.”

Is this official confirmation that Ratner is officially attached to the project? We hope not.



Max Payne Shot at 1000 Frames Per Second









Mark Wahberg, Mila Kunis, Ludacris, and Director John Moore (The Omen, Behind Enemy Lines) were in attendance to premiere Max Payne footage at the Fox panel at Comic Con.

During the Panel, John Moore kept repeating how important it was for him to stay as subjective to Max Payne’s character as possible. He believed once you take away the controller from the player, you better make it as personal to the audience as you can. Moore’s reasoning is that when you play the game the whole reason to play it is to feel like you’re a part of the story.

If you’re a fan of the game, you would be excited of what we had the privilege to witness. For instance, one scene involved Max Payne following some “junkies” into a subway system. As he passed them, they were sitting on a bench, he took a right into the bathroom. The next thing we saw was Payne looking into the mirror, he noticed the reflection behind him were the junkies. A shootout soon took place inside the bathroom, if anyone has played just the beginning of the game, the set were this taking place will seem very familiar.

Some other perks from the game, has Max Pax Payne narrating how he feels, using very dark metaphorical dialogue, but making it as simple sounding as it can, giving the feeling like you’re listing to someone read a comic book.

The last thing we were shown was a 3 minute highlight reel of the movie. It started with a zoomed shot of a barrel of a handgun, then with the same single shot started zooming back, until you saw Mark Walhberg standing holding the gun in in a alleyway while it was snowing. It went on with Led Zeppelin’s “Candy Store Rock” blasting in the background and seeing quick clips of various gun fights and showing different characters Max Payne will encounter, including dream sequence that are involved with the game. It ended with with a scene showing Max Payne holding a hostage in a office with an swat team of about ten, holding guns pointing to Payne. He throws the hostage to the ground and a fire fight ensues. Payne on one side of the room, the swat team on the other. Max Payne then tries to sneak to the other side of the room, ducking and dodging bullets by using the office desks as cover. At one point the emergency sprinklers go off, giving the firefight a little beauty to the scene.

At the end of the firefight, we see Max Payne dive, while shooting at a door to unlock it. The clip then slows down, using a bullet time effect much like what the game does. John Moore briefly discussed how they achieved bullet time. by Using a hard drive called Phantom. Phantom is a machine that can record video at 1000 Frames per second, which gives the effect of slowing down time time to the thousandth degree. The effect gives a smooth rendition of what the game does so well.

All in all, the movie has beautiful cinematic shots but the question remains, will the story be worth watching? Again, they seemed to keep the simple dialogue from the game, I’m not sure how well that will translate for a full movie.

Parasita de sot pentru ca nu se spala Jodie Marsh

Parasita de sot pentru ca nu se spala

Vineri, 25 Iulie 2008




SOC. Asa umbla Jodie noaptea prin Londra
DISPERARE. Fotomodelul a dat anunt pe internet ca sa se marite
Nepotrivire.
Modelul britanic Jodie Marsh si fostul ei partener de viata nu reusesc sa cada de acord asupra unui aspect esential: cine pe cine a lasat



Fotomodelul britanic Jodie Marsh, care in urma cu un an visa sa isi gaseasca sot prin intermediul unei preselectii organizate pe internet, are ghinion in dragoste. Dupa ce a intervievat sute de barbati dornici sa o ia de nevasta si l-a ales intr-un final glorios pe Matt Peacock, un fost iubit al lui Jordan, Jodie este din nou singura. Pana aici, nimic straniu, doar ca Marsh si Peacock nu reusesc sa cada de acord asupra unui aspect esential, respectiv cine pe cine a parasit. "Jodi mirosea ingrozitor, era imposibil sa stau langa ea. Nu prea e prietena cu apa si sapunul", i-ar fi spus Matt unui amic.

Cocalari si printzese

Cocalari si printzese

I-am vazut ieri pe amandoi, in doua ipostaze diferite.

Primul: Are o supernova in parcare, nu o misca de acolo de teama sa nu pateasca ceva cu masina, sau n-are bani de benzina. Dar face rost de un Audi si vine sa se dea cu el mare in parcare, aprinde faruri, porneste avarii si o blocheaza pe vecina de la 2 care are un megane si vrea sa plece.
S-a laudat oare ca a condus masina lui Zoso?

A doua: E o gagica trecuta de 20 de ani, intra in magazin si intreaba daca sunt cartele de cosmote de 5 euro. E clar n-are bani de alta retea, prefera cosmote ca sa vorbeasca gratis. Afla ca sunt cartele de 5 euro si se face ca se duce in magazin sa se mai uite. Se duce fix la raionul de parfumuri, ia un spray, se da din dreptul camerei video si se spraiaza de umple tot magazinul de miros.

Ma gandesc, oare facuse baie inainte, sau a venit de pe camp, se duce in club si s-a dat cu spray ca sa nu puta?

Liberty Parade 2008 Malul Marii

Cum a fost la Liberty in imagini

37 de grade in Bucuresti, 34 pe malul marii, aproape 200.000 de turisti pe tot litoralul si foarte multi tineri la Liberty Parade. La ora 2 inca era imbulzeala si aglomeratie mare la intrarea in spatiul delimitat scenei. Mai mult la ora 3 era atat de multa lume incat cu usurinta ne calcam pe picioare, chiar si in spate acolo unde am stat eu :)

Din pacate dupa ora 4 nu mi s-a mai parut asa de interesanta muzica, a ramas un fel de zum zum obisnuit cluburilor unde la ora aia oamenii se strang pe canapele un pic cam obositi. Partea misto e ca la 8 dimineata am vazut inca oameni plini de energie.

Spectacolul a fost grandios. Mai multe in pozele de mai jos … si video ..

Ce poate sa-ti faca telefonul mobil, despre care tu nici nu stiai?

1. Apelul de urgenta este 112 peste tot in lume. Acest numar poate fi apelat si daca ai tastele blocate. Incearca!

2. Ti-ai inchis cheile in masina si esti departe de casa, unde-ti tii cheile de rezerva? Daca este cineva acasa, cu telefon mobil, suna-l si roaga-l sa tina cheile aproape de telefonul lui. Tu apropie telefonul tau la 20 cm de usa masinii. Persoana de acasa apasa pe telecomanda cheii de rezerva si ti se vor deschide usile.
Functioneaza si cu usa portbagajului. Incearca!

3. Ti s-a descarcat mobilul? Orice mobil are o incarcare de rezerva in baterie, care se activeaza la combinatia *3370# si iti asigura o incarcatura de rezerva de 50%. Cand iti pui telefonul la incarcat, se incarca si rezerva, putand s-o folosesti si alta data.

Zana Maselutza





50%. Banica Jr. (medalion mic) a filmat "decolarea" sotiei si a fiului sau, insa a ratat aterizarea cu toate ca Andreea a incercat disperata sa-l atentioneze, facandu-i semne largi cu mana
IMPACT. La aterizare micutul Radu s-a lovit cu fata de apa, incepand sa planga
Premiera.
CANCAN a urmarit-o pe vedeta, in secret, pas cu pas in Franta si, incepand de azi, va dezvaluie pe parcursul mai multor zile totul despre vacanta ei de lux!






Adrian Nicolae



Asa cum ati putut citi, in premiera, inca din editia de ieri a cotidianului CANCAN, Andreea Marin a plecat saptamana trecuta intr-o vacanta de cinci stele la Monte Carlo, impreuna cu Stefan, fetita si fiul vitreg. Plus soacra si bona copiilor. Paparazzii nostri au fost, in mare secret, pe urmele lor si, timp de mai multe zile, i-au fotografiat in ipostaze incredibile! Practic, "Zana" si rubedeniile n-au facut nimic, pe luxoasa Coasta de Azur, fara ca paparazzii CANCAN sa nu-i surprinda.
Incepand de azi, vom prezenta, in serial, amanunte picante si poze cu Andreea Marin, asa cum n-ati mai vazut-o vreodata!
In vacanta din Franta, "Zana" nu s-a putut abtine sa nu incerce, printre altele, si senzatii tari. Intr-una dintre zile, ea a decis sa faca parasailing, un sport de altfel costisitor, in care te lasi purtat in aer de o parasuta trasa de pe apa de o barca de mare viteza!
Andreea n-a facut-o insa singura, ci insotita de Radu, baietelul de doar sase ani al lui Stefan Banica Jr.! "Zana" si fiul ei vitreg s-au echipat in costume speciale din neopren, dupa care salupa de mare viteza i-a ridicat in aer. Aflat pe plaja, cu mama lui, Banica Jr. n-a scapat momentul si l-a imortalizat pe camera de filmat. Dupa un tur, de cateva minute deasupra Mediteranei, Andreea si Radu au fost adusi spre mal. Diva a incercat sa le atraga atentia sotului si soacrei, facandu-le energic din mana si chiuind prelung. Manevra celui care conducea salupa a fost insa prea brusca. Parasuta de care era atarnata "Zana" a coborat neasteptat de repede. Impactul cu valurile a fost dur. Radu a inceput sa planga, iar Andreea l-a scos precipitata din mare. Stefan s-a repezit sa-i ajute, insa n-a facut altceva decat sa o infurie pe sotie. Aceasta a strigat apasat la el, reprosandu-i ca n-ar fi trebuit sa-i faca acest moft copilului si sa-l lase sa se dea cu parasuta. Aterizarea a fost ratata cap-coada, cu atat mai mult cu cat revenirea la mal a sotiei si fiului lui l-a luat prin surprindere pe Banica Jr. El n-a mai apucat sa porneasca camera de filmat, un alt motiv pentru care Andreea a sarit cu gura pe el.
In ziarul de maine, veti putea vedea noi fotografii cu "Zana" si tot alaiul iesind la cumparaturi prin Nisa, alaturi si de alte vedete autohtone. Veti afla astfel ce gusturi vestimentare au ex-vedeta TVR, sotul ei sau soacra, dar si alte detalii extrem de picante.


Nu ratati ziarul de luni, in care publicam - pentru prima data in presa din Romania - fotografii incredibile realizate pe plaja de la Monte Carlo cu Andreea Marin!


IMPORTANT



Daca vreti sa o vedeti in ziarul nostru de luni pe Andreea Marin in sanii goi, trebuie sa raspundeti la aceasta intrebare pe site-ul www.cancan.ro! Fotografiile vor fi publicate doar in conditiile in care peste 30.000 de votanti vor raspunde "DA".

poor children 2

he Simple Joy of the Poor Children

My friend, Poca, asked me to take some photos of his aging mother before she died, so he could have something to remember her by. As usual, I ended up taking some shots of the previous old man and his nephew (in the middle) and his friends happy to smile for the camera.
They don´t have much but they have their joy and sometimes I think that´s enough.
I´d rather spend my time with little children and old men, it seems. I´ve never felt my age and I seek the wisdom of the elders while trying to keep a child´s innocent view of the world...

Car Babes

Impress Your Date With A Car Of The Future

future-car-1.jpg

Want to impress your friends and possibly score a girlfriend? How about purchasing this sweet-ass "Fastlane" car of the future? You can "Buy It Now" on eBay for a cool $15,000. But before you push the button: It's not really a car. It's a shell designed to fit on top of a Pontiac Fiero. Which is not included in the auction. So, yeah. It was designed for Universal Pictures by concept car maker Trans FX for use in a movie or something. I know it can't actually go anywhere, but I still think I want it. I'll just use a flatbed trailer to tote it to the bar and then slide it off into a parking spot. Then I'll proceed to get some lucky lady extremely drunk and ask if she wants to see my fancy sports car from the future. Hopefully she won't notice there's not a goddamn thing inside and will still make out with me while we're sitting on the pavement inside. What, where's my sense? I'll throw a tarp down. I may even add a boombox for some makeout tunage.

Five more pictures after the jump, including one of what you'd see during a makeout session.

Nu exista tara pentru batrani



 Cinema Bucuresti

Nu exista tara pentru batrani

Regia
Joel Coen, Ethan Coen

In rolurile principale
Tommy Lee Jones, Javier Bardem, Josh Brolin

Gen
Aventuri, Drama, Thriller, Razboi

NU EXSISTA TARA PENTRU BATRANI este un thriller pasionant, realizat de Joel si Ethan Coen, dupa un roman al celebrului scriitor american distins cu premiul Pulitzer, Cormac McCarthy. Actiunea se petrece in vremurile noastre, cand traficantii de droguri isi fac de cap, iar oraselele au devenit poligoane de tragere in aer liber. Cu o distributie extraordinara, din care fac parte Tommy Lee Jones, laureat al premiului Oscar ("The Fugitive", "Men In Black"), Josh Brolin ("Grindhouse"), castigatorul premiului Oscar, Javier Bardem ("The Sea Inside") si Woody Harrelson, nominalizat de asemenea la premiul Oscar ("The People vc. Larry Flynt") Kelly Macdonald ("Trainspotting") NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN este realizat dupa un scenariu adaptat de fratii Coen, in regia fratilor Coen, produs de Scott Rudin, Ethan si Joel Coen.

Llewelyn Moss (Josh Brolin) descopera o camioneta parasita, inconjurata de cativa soldati morti, dar in care (inca!) se mai afla o cantitate apreciabila de heroina si doua milioane de dolari bani-gheata. Moss ia banii, si de aici se declanseaza o reactie catastrofica in lant, pe care legea - in persoana serifului Bell (Tommy Lee Jones), un tip in varsta, care nu mai are niciun fel de iluzii despre viata, nu o poate opri. Pe masura ce Moss incearca sa scape de cei care-l urmaresc - apare aici un personaj misterios, un gangster care da cu banul cand e vorba de viata sau moartea oamenilor (Javier Bardem)

Filmul atinge esenta cutremuuratoare a raului contemporan, aceleasi teme biblice ce se regasesc in spatele titlurilor sangeroase, oripilante, din ziare.
