In early September 2008, a mechanical spider dubbed '<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_Princesse">La Princesse</a>', <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-style: italic;">walked </span>through the city of Liverpool. Among other things, it shot flames, smoke, 'flung' people into the air, and spayed the public with water and snow. La Princesse weighs 50 tons, is made of metal and wood, is operated by 12 people and powered by complex hydraulics.<div><br /></div><div>The fictional story behind the spider is that scientists arrived to investigate and transported it to their 'research base' to perform experiments. En route it escaped and <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/narco/sets/72157607142764186/">terrorized the city</a>. Pyrotechnics were required to prevent the spider from entering Liverpool's new concert stadium, Echo Arena. Music was played to try to calm the giant spider and finally, it nested at a derelict building, the Concourse Tower.</div><div><br /></div><div>[ Source : <a href="http://www.boston.com/bigpicture/2009/02/la_princesse_in_liverpool.html">Boston Globe</a> ]</div>Armitagehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13445186217969973022noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4224906972207461863.post-63928737164762270602009-03-17T15:56:00.005-04:002009-03-17T16:16:37.695-04:00Thank St. Patrick that O'bama is Irish<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZEqRiZSJhYk/ScAFCkjTj2I/AAAAAAAAACc/upd5KY8ZHks/s1600-h/white-house-fountain-dyed-green.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 130px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_ZEqRiZSJhYk/ScAFCkjTj2I/AAAAAAAAACc/upd5KY8ZHks/s200/white-house-fountain-dyed-green.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5314253102026821474" /></a>I'm so thankful to the merciful St. Patrick that <a href="http://blog.light-of-reason.com/archive/irish-roots-of-barack-obama-uncovered/">we have an Irish President</a>.
