Seriously I'm not joking. It seems, Katie Price (Jordan) has been giving us far too much information about her bowel movements.
The reality star says she had such a traumatic experience "giving birth" to a pebble that she now avoids going to the toilet as much as she can.
"Being knocked out that much affected my bowels and my waterworks. I had to have a catheter fitted and I was so blocked

If you thought the Lamborghini Reventon was as exclusive as Bolognese supercars get, feast your eyes on the Zagato Raptor. The one-off concept car unveiled at the 1996 Geneva show took on the insurmountable task of supplanting the Diablo (on which it's based) on the bedroom walls of enthusiastic children worldwide.The concept car borrowed its mechanics from the Diablo VT, but while it retained the
As we count down to this year's Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, one of the most highly anticipated concept cars scheduled to make its debut there has popped up a bit early. Based on the Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe, the Pininfarina Hyperion has been commissioned by one lucky and presumably very wealthy customer. The unique creation does away with the rear seats and moves the front ones, al

Hands up who believes in miracles. I know you’re out there.
Miracles have an allure, even for some non-believers. We know there’s no way to disprove them. We want the impossible to happen. And there’s something compelling about the idea that a divine entity is manifesting itself in the mundane.
Newsworthy? Maybe. Intriguing? Definitely. That the ‘Virgin Mary pebble’ made the news is great - isn’t it brilliant to have some positive news from the doom ‘n gloom merchants?
Christchurch woman Lisa-Marie Corlet hit the headlines with her tiny icon-on-a-stone. The Virgin Mary pebble was found at Kaikoura Beach with an image etched on its surface, seemingly of the Virgin Mary. Without any religious scruples, Corlet put the pebble up for sale on TradeMe with a buy now price of $50,000. After a fake bid or two and a second Virgin Mary pebble auction underway, the pebble sits at $26,900 (while you’re there, check out the ‘Pebble that doesn&rs

This came as an eye-catcher to us. We were looking through Infiniti's US website when we encountered a press release regarding the unveiling of the production EX. The two keywords of the press release title, EX & Pebble Beach, were enough to get us jumping. Infiniti is set to unveil the new EX at the Concours d'Elegance in Pebble Beach, California just a day from today.Infiniti unveiled the EX Concept in New York last April and its reception was massive. Slotting below the FX, the EX is Infiniti's answer to the BMW X3 and the upcoming Mercedes-Benz GLK. The production version will retain nearly all the design elements from the concept, and we caught a glimpse of it with the spyshots LeftLane posted sometime ago. We also read some personal recounts of the EX roaming the streets of California with minor camouflage.The production EX will still retain the Lane Departure Prevention and the Around View Monitor, found in the concept. These groundbreaking safety features will likely accumul

Cast your pebble into the water and see how it ripples...
I was thinking today about the "ripple" effect. About, how everything we do. every decision we make affects someone else.
If you think about this too much it will freeze you into total inaction. Its tough enough making decisions for ourselves in this world without having to bear the responsibility for the affect those decisions may have on others.
So , how can we detach ourselves from this mindset and in doing so free ourselves to live totally in the moment, to "go with the soul".
We are taught that to put ourselves first is SELFish...yet how can we have a relationship with the SELF if we don't become more selfish. By penetrating our own psyche's we then start to unravel the mysteries of who we really are. We then start to understand what we need to do with our lives to make us truly happy and in so doing create the ripple affect that we really want in our lives...
Can the ripple affect extend thru time and

This is pretty cool, a nice piece of jewelry that is made from stones, coconut pebbles, sterling silver, with swarovski crystal beads, peridot nuggets and held together with some 41 inch fine cotton cord.
Every piece is going to be different, as the materials used are all natural and are made by hand.
Price for the flat pebble necklace is £34 (68).

This photo was taken back in March when there was still lots of snow around.
I really love this beach full of millions of small pebble stones. It is very special to walk on it and listen to waves rolling in.
The reason I’m posting this photo today is that I was contacted on Flickr about this particular picture. The person contacting me are making a book about “Hurtigruten” (English: Costal Express) in Norway and wanted to use this shot in their book. I’m very excited about this because I have never been printed before!
The project is very low budget so all I’m getting from it is a free book and of course my name in it, but the satisfaction of getting printed is payment enough.
Huritigruten (or Hurtigruta as we call it in northern Norway) is a passenger and freight line that sails daily along most of of our long coastline. The trip takes 11 days and is very popular amon
I learned how to do this really neat little project from a visit to the Work*Shop in Austin a couple of years ago. These adorable glass magnets make great little gifts, original kitchen or office magnets - as well as a terrific craft for an older child, a teenager or a real grown-up like me. If you do take the time to do it properly, these may be the most satisfying fifteen minutes you spend on an artsy-fartsy craft and end up with a really unique-looking creation, one that finally answers the elusive search for form and function. What you need:- Transparent glass pebbles with a flat back, the kind you find in the flower arrangement section of your local art/craft supply store. Try to choose the clearest ones you can, you should be able to see your chosen design underneath. It's okay if the pebble shows a little bit of a moiré effect as they often do, it may even add to the charm of the finished piece. You can use different sizes, but it's easier to work with the larger ones.- Smal

This beach is very special. It is filled with millions of these pebbles and it is pretty steep so it is real hard to walk it.
When big waves hit it produce an unique sound when the pebbles roll out.
The mountain in the background is called Drangen.
