World record set for making a king-size bed

275x250.jpg A hotel housekeeper has won a place in the record books after becoming the fastest person in the world to make a king-sized bed.

Putting most people to shame, it took Louise Waller took just 95 seconds to transform the bed from unmade to a professionally smart finish, during a recent event in London.

In that time she had to deal with two pillows with pillow cases, a mattress cover, a king size bed sheet, a king size duvet and duvet cover and a bed runner.

While 30-year-old Waller is understandably happy about the record, she also realises it also means she will have a hard time convincing her partner to to it at home.
 
275x250.jpg Speaking of the record, Waller - who works for Premier Inn Sheffield City Centre - said: "I am so happy to have set a brand new World Record for the fastest bed-maker!  As a housekeeper I have to make beds perfectly everyday, so I knew with a bit of practice I’d be a World Record holder!"

Steve Conway Head of Marketing for Premier Inn added, “We pride ourselves on having the most efficient team around so it’s only right that one of our esteemed housekeepers has been recognised as a World Record holder.”

The Frozen Tsunami

This spectacular series of images circulates via email and has also been posted on various websites, blogs and online forums. A description commonly included with the images claims that they depict a large tidal wave or tsunami wave instantly frozen as it breaks. However, the ice formation shown in the images is not an instantly frozen wave. The photographs were taken by scientist Tony Travouillon in Antarctica.Many of the images can be seen in a gallery on Travouillon's website. The pictures do not show a giant wave somehow snap-frozen in the very act of breaking. The formation contains blue ice, and this is compelling evidence that it was not created instantly from a wave of water.

The Giant Humbug

One of them looks like a giant mint humbug, with its clear blue, green and brown stripes. The other looks as if it has been shot through with a streak of spearmint. These stunning banded icebergs - formed over hundreds, if not thousands, of years - were pictured floating in the waters of the Antarctic. They were photographed by Norwegian sailor Oyvind Tangen, on board a research ship around 1,700miles south of Cape Town and 660miles north of the Antarctic. "It reminds me of striped candy I bought as a child," said 62-year-old Mr Tangen.

Working at Landfill

Unfortunately, in this world there are many places like this one, but this place is just horrible. I assume that these poor people live on this garbage lot, because they are eating and playing there or maybe they just work there. Even if they just work there it’s still awful. Imagine how much that place smell. When you see something like this, you realize how happy you are because you don’t have to dig trough the trash in stead of hating your job. Still it’s interesting to see how some people live in Cambodia.


Genetic technology has made a lot of break-through in the past and will progress tremendously in the future. New species would emerge as a result. The combination of mammals and insects seems to be impossible, but in the mind of artists, everything is possible, they have a very active and creative imagination, let’s have a look at these pictures of future species created by them. Use your imagination you can also create the new species by photo editing programs.
