The world is full of creativity, and just when you think you have seen it all, somebody comes up with something even better!
Watch Emirates’ crew demonstrate their “safety video” in front of 65,000 Benfica fans, with a twist… Great job! Clearly one of the best marketing campaigns we will see all this year!
London-based photographer Rich McCor decided to try being a tourist in his own city in one rather unique way. Rich took photos of London’s landmarks, and then, mixed things up a bit, mostly by using intricate paper cutouts to transform the sights into something else. He started by giving the 156 year-old Big Ben a modern update and turning it into a wristwatch:

From JOHN CLEESE
The English are feeling the pinch in relation to recent events in Syria and have therefore raised their security level from “Miffed” to “Peeved.” Soon, though, security levels may be raised yet again to “Irritated” or even “A Bit Cross.” The English have not been “A Bit Cross” since the blitz in 1940 when tea supplies nearly ran out. Terrorists have been re-categorised from “Tiresome” to “A Bloody Nuisance.” The last time the British issued a “Bloody Nuisance” warning level was in 1588, when threatened by the Spanish Armada.
The Scots have raised their threat level from “Pissed Off” to “Let’s get the Bastards.” They don’t have any other levels. This is the reason they have been used on the front line of the British army for the last 300 years.
The French government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from “Run” to “Hide.” The only two higher levels in France are “Collaborate” and “Surrender.” The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France ‘s white flag factory, effectively paralysing the country’s military capability.
Italy has increased the alert level from “Shout Loudly and Excitedly” to “Elaborate Military Posturing.” Two more levels remain: “Ineffective Combat Operations” and “Change Sides.” The
Germans have increased their alert state from “Disdainful Arrogance” to “Dress in Uniform and Sing Marching Songs.” They also have two higher levels: “Invade a Neighbour” and “Lose.”
Belgians, on the other hand, are all on holiday as usual; the only threat they are worried about is NATO pulling out of Brussels…
The Spanish are all excited to see their new submarines ready to deploy. These beautifully designed subs have glass bottoms so the new Spanish navy can get a really good look at the old Spanish navy.
Australia, meanwhile, has raised its security level from “No worries” to “She’ll be right, Mate.” Two more escalation levels remain: “Crikey! I think we’ll need to cancel the barbie this weekend!” and “The barbie is cancelled.” So far no situation has ever warranted use of the last final escalation level.

And as a final thought – Greece is collapsing, the Iranians are getting aggressive, and Rome is in disarray. Welcome back to 430 BC. Life is too short…
Great motion animation which presents with humour what’s IN or OUT in our daily life.

De Niro and DiCaprio have never worked on a Scorsese project together—until now!
Australian billionaire James Packer has reportedly paid actors Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt and Robert De Niro $13 million each to star in an advertisement for his Manila casino.
De Niro and DiCaprio have never worked on a Scorsese project together—until now!
The Audition is a short film promoting the opening of Melco-Crown’s movie-themed resort and casino in Macau and City of Dreams in Manila, directed by Martin Scorsese with Leonardo DiCaprio, Robert De Niro and Brad Pitt. The full movie/ad campaign will be aired in the summer of 2015. The ad feels more like a trailer for a film, and it cost more than $70 million to make, according to Fairfax Media.
The first clip in the series of short movies was uploaded on YouTube on Wednesday, but it was soon after removed (no reasons given).
We were told that some students had to do absurd things to find Wi-Fi on their family language travel. But you have never seen anything as crazy as “Wi-Fi Dogs”. Watch how José and his probably-too-good-to-be-true dogs lead language travel tourists on improbable journeys in search of the Internet connection. Well, the schools and colleges that the Verbalists language network represent all have free Wi-Fi, so no worries 🙂
Today, we bring you an excellent Deutsche Telekom ad (on the already described subject), enjoy it!
