Gas Powered Everything
Granted, this is the ad for Nissan (no, we're not getting paid for it's inclusion) - but we thought, it was wonderfully, creatively made and inspired by neat steampunk (gaspunk?) sensibilities, worthy of good look on DRB:

"Mother Ship" Cloud
A photo back from 2007 National Geographic gallery of tornado-producing storms... Still as effective image as ever; if you see anything like this happening in your neighborhood (especially if you see cloud rotation), run or take cover.

"This sculpture was inspired by the decline of manufacturing in the US, as we have moved many of those industries overseas to take advantage of cheaper labor. Note the irony of using plastic toy and model parts, which were made in China, to illustrate the loss of industry in the US."

This photo became quite popular recently, but even if you've seen it already, we feel obliged to highlight it - as we have not seen anything quite like it in a while. Make sure to visit the photographer's page for more:

The Trickiest "Phish" / Spam Email Yet
Here I was, thinking that I've seen and can detect any variety of false "phishing" emails in my inbox. Then, this particular variation ALMOST got me clicking it. It has a legitimate YouTube logo, YouTube seemingly "legit" email address, no cheesy broken English - and a subject that may be relevant to many YouTube users. All seems fine, until you hover your mouse over any link in this email and notice that everything re-directs to a crazy dev.faustinoinc.com address (possibly doing something weird to your computer).
Here is the screenshot:
So, be aware of this and do not click in there (I did not).
