A person was driving to work at highway speeds when he/she heard a very loud pop in the engine bay and pulled over. After popping the hood, it became immediately obvious what was wrong. A co-worker saw the owner of the vehicle on the side of the road and stopped to help out. The co-worker that stopped had a camera on hand and snapped the pictures below.

Take a look after the jump! :)

The Secret Service has primary jurisdiction over the prevention and investigation of counterfeiting of U.S. currency and U.S. treasury bonds notes. However, this agency is best known for their work protecting the President. In addition, they protect the Vice President, President-elect, Vice President-elect, past presidents and their spouses (except when the spouse re-marries), certain candidates for the offices of President and Vice President, children and grandchildren of current and former presidents until age 16, all people in the United States presidential line of succession, visiting foreign heads of state and government along with their spouses (all called "protectees"), other individuals as designated per Executive Order of the President, and National Special Security Events, when designated as such by the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security. It also tracks suspicious people and investigates a wide variety of financial fraud crimes and identity theft and provides forensics assistance for some local crimes. The United States Secret Service Uniformed Division (UD) assists in the protection of foreign embassies, the United States Naval Observatory and the White House within Washington, D.C.. Due to the discretion of this organization, many details about the Secret Service are currently secret.

This ring is made out of a quarter by flattening the edge with a spoon or machinist hammer, then after drilling a hole and polishing the center is dremmeled out. A sanding disc is used to smooth out the inside and sized it to fit. After it's a complete you have a pretty neat looking ring.

During World War II the Army Corps of Engineers needed to hide the Lockheed Burbank Aircraft Plant to protect it from a Japanese air attack. They covered it with camouflage netting and trompe l’oeil to make it look like a rural subdivision from the air.

Back in the 60s and 70s, the VW Micro-bus had quite the hippie reputation, with flower power and home-grown pharmaceuticals being part of the mystique that helped make the real original minivan a 1960s icon. For the owner of a 1958 double panel restoration project, the drug connection hit a little close to home. When checking out the undercarriage of his new purchase, TheSamba forum member Joshua B. found 14 LBS of marijuana stashed away. While we can't provide an exact street value of such a find (if you can, let us know in the comments) we can assume that it's a hell of a lot more than the value of this rusted out old groove-mobile. If you plan on trying to contact Joshua about his find, don't bother, he already disposed of it. If anything, we can say that marijuana definitely kills enough brain cells to forget all about storing 14 LBS of chronic under a VW, which doesn't seem like something someone would ordinarily forget about. It doesn't take Fred, Velma, and Shaggy to figure out that these forgetful smugglers are total rejects.

International Working Woman's Day (IWD) is marked on March 8 every year. It is a major day of global celebration for the economic, political and social achievements of women.

Started as a political event, the holiday blended in the culture of many countries (primarily Russia and the countries of former Soviet bloc). In some celebrations, the day lost its political flavour, and became simply an occasion for men to express their love to the women around them in a way somewhat similar to Mother's Day and St Valentine's Day mixed together. In others, however, the political and human rights theme as designated by the United Nations runs strong, and political and social awareness of the struggles of women worldwide are brought out and examined in a hopeful manner.

The IWD is also celebrated as the first spring holiday, as in the listed countries the first day of March is considered the first day of the spring season.

Makela Auto Tuning just finished one hell of a restoration job on a 1984 Toyota Celica Turbo Group B rally car. They started with one banged up shell that you see up there, and miraculously transformed it back into this beauty. The car is a restoration of the Celica driven by Juha Kankkunen in the 1985 Hong Kong-Beijing Rally. For more pictures, continue reading...

And your animals so did?

Some Russian designers have started a production of a big, moon-shaped light-box calling this project a "Your Personal Moon". Now anyone can get his own moon right in his apartment or his backyard.

At a first glance this car might look like a garbage truck from outside but it is in fact designed as a sort of a cross between a mobile home and an off-road vehicle. It’s a Terra Cross "Home on Wheels" manufactured by UNICAT. This "Home on Wheels" has everything you need, an office, beds, bathroom, kitchen and storage space plus today you can live on the beach, and tommorow in the middle of a city (of course if you can park). The particular model displayed here is the EX63HDI MAN TGA 6×6, and if you want to see other models you can check UNICAT website. In conclusion this "home on wheels" would be a perfect choice for someone who decide to travel around the world, or who just like to travel. Now let’s take a look and admire the inside of this "house on wheels".
