Some of those "bricks" look like they have dove-tail joints !
(e.g., 1st guy's layer # 14 )

Your link says most bricks are 6-8 pounds, up to 12. And there are more than 4 bricks per layer - at least four by two, but some appear to have more, thinner bricks stuck in the cracks.

Foot3 is right. It's clearly a costume for a festival. Are the plastic straps inside a hard hat even strong enough to hold that kind of weight without breaking and bringing the hard hat shell down onto the skull of the wearer? And if they were real bricks, what sort of platform is the bottom layer sitting on? It has no thickness.

Some of the paint has even chipped off the second stack of "bricks" to reveal the white Styrofoam underneath.

Happy Monkey 11-16-2010 11:37 AM

The front left brick end, eleventh from the top, in the front stack, looks like it has come loose, exposing what was behind.

I took 4 lbs from...

Bricks are usually sold in “cubes” of 500 bricks. A cube weighs about a ton.
You're right (as was V). I was looking at it wrong, probably 8 per layer or about a thousand pounds... if it was real.

Ah. I was looking at:

A brick's weight is limited to what a bricklayer can repeatedly lift easily with one hand, perhaps 12 pounds, though most bricks are half to three-quarters of that weight.

You know, I was just thinking how awesome it would be to see a bunch of little monkeys on a capybara. It's like you read my mind.

Snopes verifies and links to the photographer's site:

Quote:

I can understand the curiosity from people of the highly melanistic black fawn images that we have on our website. They are a rare phenomenon to see. We're always happy to find someone who enjoys viewing our images as much as we enjoyed taking them.

I took the photos of the black fawn near Austin, TX. That area of central Texas seems to have a concentration of black "white-tailed" deer, although it is still extremely rare to find them. This is a wild deer, but resides in a greenbelt near a neighborhood. I took the images when the deer were roaming through the neighborhood. The two fawns in the photos are twins, but only the one is black. The images being circulated were taken in May [2010] and I again captured some images of them about seven weeks later which I added to our website. They are going to be published along with an article about "Melanism" in "Deer and Deer Hunting" magazine due out in September [2010].

This is, like, all the neighborhoods in the city. We love our greenbelts, but the deer are a pain in the ass.

If you could just get the local gov to let some hunters come in and cull them out then give the meat to the local food shelters. Oh, and let them keep the racks. It would solve many of those problems.

Gravdigr 11-27-2010 03:16 PM

Several cities/communities let bowhunters come in and cull a few now and again, when they become problematic.

:yum:

There's practically nowhere to shoot where you wouldn't be directing bullets into someone's back yard. But we do a pretty good job killing them with our cars.

Culling is always done with bow or crossbow in areas congested with people. The public is forewarned and the whole process is quite controlled. There is a long history of a safe process to get this done.

Works better than having volunteers hide in the bushes, and run out to slip a condom on the bucks during the rut. :yesnod:

These are pre-Katrina photos. They belong in their own, O.M.G. thread, but this will do.

There's more at the link.

Ok, still amazing.

These images are actually photographs of tornadoes and other extreme weather phenomena taken by storm chaser Mike Hollingshead in Nebraska and Kansas during the summer months of 2002 and 2004. Some of these photos are viewable on the 2004 Digital Photos section of his web site (scroll about halfway down the page).

Sky, that pic reminded me of this one from the Nat'l Geographic contest (Montana, I think):

xoxoxoBruce 11-30-2010 11:51 AM

Even with my limited exposure to the great open spaces, I've seen similar in the US and Canada, they usually have a lot of lightning too.

Not sure what this is. Muntjac? Chinese or Korean water deer? Mouse deer?

Teensy, tiny backstraps.

...and then it's lunch.



ETA: Does anyone know what that little blue egg is on his monitor stand?

Scriveyn 12-05-2010 02:44 AM

Not a mouse deer. By the shape of its ears I'd guess it is a dikdik.

PS: "S.A. ORYX" on the whiteboard also points to Africa.

It's a silly putty egg. It's blue like WSOD so you know it's one of the new kind of silly putty that you can put right on the screen. I think Shawnee was talking about it in another thread.
