80 Kilogram Tumor
For three years now, Nguyen Duy Hai from Da Lat city has been unable to move and can only sleep sitting up as his giant tumor has grown to an oversized 80 kilograms.
Being 1 meter in diameter, the 31-year-old man’s tumor is linked to his left leg and causes agonizing pains whenever the weather changes.
“His tumor has grown so fast and heavy he can’t do anything by himself but just sitting there,” Nguyen Thi Cho Con, Hai’s mother said in tears.
For years, the 61-year-old woman has taken care of all of her son’s basic needs, she shared, only worrying her declining health won’t let her do that anymore.
“He just screams in pain when the changing weather affects his tumor,”
“He has to sit and sleep like a toad for the tumor doesn’t let him even move or turn his body sideways,”
“It is so hurting to look at your child everyday like this,” Con confided.

Moses Bridge - Amazing
This incredible “sunken” bridge located in the Netherlands is giving visitors a unique way to access a beautiful 17th Century Dutch fort. Designed by RO & AD Architects, the Moses Bridge literally parts the waters that surround the fort, allowing pedestrians to pass through. The bridge is made from sustainable Accsys Technologies Accoya wood, which is both FSC and PEFC certified.
A series of moats and fortresses were built over the West Brabant Water Line region of the Netherlands during the 17th century in order to provide protection from invasion by France and Spain. Fort de Roovere was surrounded with a shallow moat that was too deep to march across, and too shallow for boats. In turn the earthen fort had remained protected –until now.

World Biggest Aircraft
Designed by World War I aviator Konstantin Kalinin with a wingspan greater than a B-52's and a much greater wing area, the K-7 was one of the biggest aircraft built before the jet age. It was only one engine short of the B-52 as well, having the curious arrangement of six pulling on the wing leading edge and one pushing at the rear. The K-7's very brief first flight showed up instability and serious vibration caused by the airframe resonating with the engine frequency. The solution to this 'flutter' was thought to be to shorten and strengthen the tail booms, little being known then about the natural frequencies of structures and their response to vibration. On the 11th flight, during a speed test, the port tailboom vibrated, fractured, jammed the elevator and caused the giant aircraft to plough into the ground, killing 15. Undaunted by this disaster, Kalinin's team began construction of two further K-7s in a new factory, but the vicissitudes of Stalin's Russia saw the project abandoned, and in 1938 the arrest and execution of Kalinin on trumped up espionage and sabotage charges.

Flood in Thailand
Thailand every day more and more goes into the water
Thailand continues to arrive in the present chaos. Flooding completely paralyzed all movement, the second-largest airport is flooded, people are wandering around the city in search of food and seek shelter.
For the last day the water level in the Chao Praya river again broke its own record, set in the morning on 25 October and has already reached 2.4 meters above sea level. On Monday, the water rose to a level of 2.3 meters, which is 3 cm higher than the record 15 years ago.
But people are not desperate, they have adapted to this way of life, to survive as they can.
