10 Weirdest Places to Live

1. Living in a Billboard

This has got to be recycling at its best. Why throwout perfectly good billboards when you can reuse them as a living space? I don’t know about you, but how many billboards have you seen that would make a good one bedroom apartment? This may be the idea, but we shall see if it comes into practical use.

2. Living in a Walking House

WALKING HOUSE is a modular dwelling system that enables persons to live a peaceful nomadic life, moving slowly through the landscape or cityscape with minimal impact on the environment. It collects energy from its surroundings using solar cells and small windmills. There is a system for collecting rain water and a system for solar heated hot water. (Link)

3. Living under the Grass

At first sight, the place seems inhospitable. A rocky cliff facing North, unsheltered, where the wind blows cold and makes the waves break would seem the last place you would want to build your house in. But its owners didn’t think the same way and, thus, an unusual building of angular, but sober, lines was built to merge perfectly with the surrounding environment. Located in Loredo, in the north coast of Spain, facing the Cantabrian Sea (Bay of Biscay), the OS house, a project by the Nolaster group of architects, has, as its main characteristic, its covering, which is none other than grass. (Link)

4. Living in a Water Tower

“The Tower,” a Tri Level House Standing 85 Feet Tall, is a Replica of a Historical Water Tower that was Reconstructed. The Architectural Design is Combined with a Designer Interior Layout. The Water Tower Features a 360 Degree, Unsurpassed View of the Pacific Ocean, Huntington Harbour and the San Gabriel River. (Link)

5. Living over a Bridge

Max Pritchard Architect brought out the adventurer side in you. Living inside a “bridge” surrounded by the lush green scenery was challenging. It was the Bridge House. The house design was consisted of two steel trusses with concrete floors and steel decking. There was a roof made of plantation pipes. The unique house had transparent walls made of glass. The outdoor feeling in was brought by another great example of narrow housing. The box house was situated at one hour’s drive from Adelaide, worth $175,000. (Link)

6. Living inside an Airplane

This accommodation is not a private dwelling but instead a suite that is part of the Hotel Costa Verde, a hotel located near Quepos, Costa Rica. It’s a fully outfitted, meticulously detailed, two bedroom, Boeing 727 fuselage suite. The creators have refurbished a vintage 1965 Boeing 727 airframe, which in its prior life shuttled globetrotters on South Africa Air and Avianca Airlines (Colombia). (Link)

7. Living in a Church

This stunning Gothic Revival-style building is now one of the most extraordinary and largest single family homes in San Francisco. Built in 1909 in San Francisco’s famed Mission District, this church fell on hard times in recent years when its dwindling membership did not have the money to finance needed renovations. Enter businessman Siamak Akhavan who purchased the church for $2.25 million and invested another $3 million in it, turning it into a three-bedroom, 2-½ bath, twelve-room home. Its features include an enormous living area, which includes the original sanctuary (with soaring, hand-painted ceilings, arched windows, and most of the original stained glass windows), custom mahogany wood finishes, four fireplaces, and a new chef’s kitchen. The Master Suite includes a marble Roman tub room, dressing room, and incredible 360 degree views from the tower meditation room. It’s back on the market again, too. Asking price? A cool $7.5 million.(Link)

8. Living on a 2,575m Peak

Since 1983, the Rifugio Nuvolau has been a refuge for exhausted trekkers, providing comfort and solace to those trudging in Italy’s dramatic Dolomite Mountains. Even during World War 1, the 2,575m high hut served as a point for surveying situations on the summit. Besides a flashback in history, the location will provide a bed, eatables, and the jolly company of other outdoorsy souls like you. (Link | Via)

9. Living on a Boat – on shore.

The Ship Residence sits on South Bass Island in Lake Erie at Put-in-Bay, Ohio. Its based on what is left of the former Great Lakes Shipping Boat, The Benson Ford. The boat was built by Henry Ford (of Ford Motors and the Model T) and named after his grandson. After 50 years of service on the Great Lakes, the Benson Ford was scheduled in 1986 to be scrapped. This is when an Ohio couple stepped in and the captain’s quarters of the Benson Ford became The Ship Residence, a private home on South Bass Island.

The front section of the Benson Ford is where the walnut paneled state rooms, dining room, galley, and passenger lounge were located. These elegant quarters were removed from the rest of the ship and brought to land to make up the magnificent Ship Residence. (Link)

10. Living Upside Down

Klaudiusz Golos and Sebastion Mikuciuk created this upside down house for an exhibit in Trassenheide, Germany. It’s clearly unlivable but still a lot of fun. (Link)

Australia got the 15^th spot among the richest countries in the world. Hence, there are people who have contributed to the riches and popularity of the country. Forbes has already released the top 10 richest people residing in Australia. They are considered the most influential people that have driven economic policies and other financial boosters that aided the progress of the country. There are economic programs that have been implemented. Hence, let us have a closer look at these people who have brought so much pride and dignity not just for their country, but also across the globe, which marks ingenuity and industry.

10. Kerry Stroke

With the recent result that Forbes released, Kerry got the 10^th spot with $1.9 billion worth of total assets. He is a known businessman in Australia and got the 785^th spot in the richest people in the world. The wealth that he has acquired came from construction equipment, mining, and property.

9. David Hains

He is a major investor of a US steelmaker. The total assets that he had came from private operations of different businesses where he has ventured, which are in the field of engineering, property, manufacturing, and retail. He has $1.9 billion total assets as of the moment and could have exceeded $2 million before the year ends.

8. Kerr Neilson

He is one of the co-founders of Platinum Asset Management where he also serves as its Funds Manager. Despite of the $2.4 billion assets that he has on his end, he still chooses to live a simple life amidst the luxury and huge amount of profit that he has been receiving. He has reached the retiring age where he could say he has achieved more than enough.

7. Anthony Pratt

He is the CEO and Chairman of the world’s largest packaging and privately owned paper company known as Visy Industries. The sad fact is that he is still single while enjoying the time with his beloved child. He has accumulated $2.7 billion as of the moment and he consistently enjoys being included among the richest people in Australia.

6. John Gandel

He has made an investment in Melbourne Shopping Center, and most of the profits that he had came from real estate. He is the 647^th richest man in the world aside from having the #6 spot that he had this year in Australia. His $3.3 billion might have another billion next year, which is possible because of his development expertise in the real estate business.

5. Harry Triguboff

Another development has been ranked and numbered on the list that Forbes reaffirmed because of his $3.4 billion asset, which is a million away from John Gandel. Hence, another information about him is that he is not really born and raised in Australia but in China and he even spent his childhood life mingling with white Russian people until he settled in Australia by 1947.

4. Frank Lowy

Because of the hardships that he went through during the World War II, he became a refugee himself but that brought his luck to Australia. Yes, he was born and raised in Czechoslovakia but permanently resided in Sydney, Australia in 1952. Now at 80, he is still witnessing the incredible height of his assets that has reached $4.3 billion up to date.

3. James Packer

He was the son of the known media mogul Kerry Packer but his path is different from his father. In fact, he exceeded what his father has accomplished if it will be based on the figures that he has reached as of the moment with net assets of $4 billion. He has a wide investment on various gaming business, apart from his family’s gambling empire. He was first cited and included on Forbes’s list in 2006 and consistently maintained to be part of the richest people.

2. Andrew Forrest

He is known as Twiggy rather than Andrew as his first name. He had held various positions before achieving great success at this point of his life as a mining entrepreneur. In fact, when he reached 30, he was considered as one of the youngest richest men in the world, especially when he founded the Anaconda Nickel, which is now known as Minara Resources. $6.9 billion is the total assets as of 2011 and his ingenious ideas are keeping up.

1. Georgina Rinehart

She is the only rose among the nine thorns mentioned in this list, which gives an impression that women can lead and really rule. The 56-year old woman has $9 billion net worth. All that she had came from the inheritance that she received from her father. Nonetheless, she managed to keep it growing, especially that she oversees Hancock Prospecting. She has proved to her stepmother that her father’s death has been worthwhile because she continued the legacy and still continues to make the business progressive by more than 450%.

Top 10 Ways to Survive in Prison

1. Stay away from punks
In jail, this term is used to describe those people who attach themselves to new inmates and are referred to as their ‘girlfriends’. It is done mainly for protection and the inmate may benefit in the short run but ultimately the other prisoner will not only abuse the inmate but also treat him like a slave.


2. Keep Quiet
When in prison, only speak when you are spoken to. This means that you should not talk about unnecessary things and definitely not discuss your crime. This becomes all the more important if you have been convicted for a sexual crime. If you are foolish enough to brag about it, you will become a huge target for brutality and rape.

3. Do Not Gamble
If you want to die in prison, you should definitely start gambling behind bars. When you play with other prisons, you will find yourself in a lose-lose situation. If you lose, you make them angry and if you win, you make them angrier. However, it is okay to play a few friendly games as this will help you pass time faster.

4. Respect the Guards and the Prisoners
If an incidents occurs in the jail and you know who is behind it; keep it to yourself if the guard asks you anything about it. If you start telling on your inmates, you will have to face the music. In addition to that, be sure to be nice to the guards whenever you can.

5. Understand that nobody is nice
If somebody is in prison, it probably means that he is not a kind person, unless of course he has been wrongly accused. Therefore, if somebody lends you something, always refuse because if you don’t, you will become indebted to that person and end up getting killed eventually.

6. Avoid Eye Contact
Prisoners are not the most rational people in the world. If you look at a person too long, he will automatically take it badly and assume that you are staring. The next thing you know, you are the main target of violence. Therefore, it is best to look straight ahead at all times.

7. Say No to Drugs
Even though drug use will help you forget your time in prison and will pass the time faster, you will also become indebted to another prisoner. Not only that, but you may also get into trouble with the guards.

8. Work Out
This will help you pass time and will also make you stronger physically. If you look strong and walk without staring at your feet, nobody will dare to come near you. Also, try not to get a tattoo from a random prisoner with a needle unless you want to get AIDS and die.

9. Keep your Private Life to Yourself
In addition to keeping quiet about your crime, you should also keep details about your private life to yourself. The same rule applies to you too and you should avoid delving into the private lives of other convicts.

10. Be Polite
Make sure that you are both respectful and polite when you are conversing with other prisoners. Respect is valued in jail and if you respect others, they will return it and make your life easier.

9 Unbelievable Drunk Driving Stories

1. The man who got arrested for drunk driving on a motorized beer cooler

A man in Noosa, Australia, was arrested for driving down a road on a motorized beer cooler while intoxicated. The defendant faces charges of driving under the influence and driving without a license after police caught him on the makeshift vehicle, which was powered by a 50cc engine. The defendant's lawyers are currently challenging the notion that the cooler constitutes a vehicle.

2. The teenager who was arrested for drunk driving, called his mom who also got arrested for drunk driving who called her husband who guess what? Was arrested for drunk driving

It must have set a record, but this one South Canterbury family would surely much rather not have, after three of them were booked for drunk-driving on the same night. The saga began about 12.15am when a 15-year-old boy was stopped and arrested for drunk-driving. He blew 529 micrograms per litre of breath, more than three and a half times the youth limit. The teenager was taken to the Timaru police station for processing, where his mother was called to collect him. She was subsequently stopped and arrested for drunk-driving at about 2.14am, after blowing 776 mcg, nearly twice the adult limit of 400.

But it wasn't over there. The woman then rang her partner to come and pick them both up. He was stopped and arrested on North St at about 3am, when he blew 559mcg. (Link | Via)

3. The drunk driver who called the police on herself

A woman in Wisconsin called the emergency to report a drunk driver - which was very civic spirited of her, especially considering that the drunk driver in question was, in fact, her. 49-year-old Mary Strey was driving between Neilsville and Granton in Wisconsin after an evening of over-indulgence when she decided to dial 911 and report herself for driving under the influence.

She began the call with the 911 dispatcher by saying 'Somebody's really drunk driving down Granton Road.' After establishing in which direction the drunk driver was going, the dispatcher asked: 'You behind them?' 'No, I am them,' Strey replied, with commendable honesty.

Police arrived to find Strey slurring her words, swaying from side to side and unable to perform their sobriety tests. Tests later showed she had a blood-alcohol level double the legal limit.

4. The man dressed as breathalyzer who was arrested for drunk-driving

Ohio student James Miller was stopped by police on suspicion of drunk- in Oxford, Ohio, after he was spotted merrily driving the wrong way down a one-way street, while wearing a breathalyzer costume. Suspicions that he may have been drinking were heightened by the fact that there was an open can of Bud Light by the driver's seat. Miller's breathalyzer costume featured a dial with three levels of drunkenness: Boring, Life of the Party, and Sotally Tober.

When confronted, Miller stuffed chewing gum into his mouth, and insisted he hadn't been drinking. Unfortunately, for the fake breathalyzer, a real blood alcohol test showed he had a level of .158, almost twice the legal limit. He was also found to have multiple IDs on him.

Miller was charged with underage drinking, driving under the influence of alcohol and a one-way street violation. He was released to his girlfriend - but not before featuring in an attractive breathalyzer-costume mugshot that will surely guarantee him lasting internet fame. (Link)

5. The employees who had to push drunk boss's car home

Ten workers in China pushed their boss's car three miles home after an office party - because they were all too drunk to drive. The group had been enjoying a meal at a restaurant in downtown Changchun, northeast China's Jilin Province, when they realized their predicament. Boss Zhang Fei announced that he was too drunk to drive and suddenly realized nobody had stayed sober enough to drive his car.

Drink-driving was this year listed as a hazardous crime in China and offenders face up to six months in jail and a heavy fine. Zhang did not want to leave his car downtown and it was too late to call out a substitute driver - so vice president Huang Weiyun suggested they all push him home. Huang pointed out that it was only three miles away and that the exercise would do them all good - so all ten quickly agreed and set off with Zhang at the wheel. Passers-by were stunned to see the group, laughing and singing, as they pushed their boss's VW car home through the city streets during the 45 minute journey. Traffic officers said that as long as the car's engine was not running, it would not be classed as drink-driving under Chinese law. (Link | Via)

6. The drunk driver who drank more beer while waiting to be rescued

A drunk driver trapped after overturning his car cracked open another can of beer while awaiting rescue. Paul Sneddon, 47, ‘had nothing else to do' but drink, a court heard.

When police asked how much he had drunk, the jobless baker said: ‘Plenty.' He was banned from driving for 10 months and fined a total of $1100 on the charges of driving with excess breath alcohol and careless driving, which he admitted. (Link)

7. The man who turned up drunk for driving test

A banned driver blew a chance to get his license back when he turned up to take his driving theory test too drunk to even walk. The man, named as Florin I, from Adjud, in Vrancea county, Romania, lost his right to drive when he was caught driving under the influence two years ago.

He came to sit the exam again but said he was too nervous and needed "something to boost his confidence". The exam organizers noticed him having difficulties walking and decided to give him the alcohol test. He was asked to leave the exam room immediately. He was tested with the breathalyzer and it turned out he had 1.11 mg/l alcohol in the exhaled air. The 42-year-old man was told he will be allowed to sit the test again only if he is sober. (Link)

8. The couple who made their 13-year-old son drive because they were too drunk to drive themselves

Heather Choulos, 32, has been charged with child endangerment and contributing to the delinquency of a minor for letting her underage son drive. Choulos, her boyfriend, Donald Hughes, 29, and her 13-year-old son went to Lo Coco's pizzeria for dinner and after consuming a bottle of wine between the two of them Choulos and Hughes decided they were too intoxicated to drive. The pair has multiple convictions for driving under the influence so they piled into the back seat and decided to pressure Choulos' son into driving her 2008 Land Rover.

The boy, who had never driven before, received no help from the couple in the back because they were too busy making out. The child became scared and frustrated when he realized he was driving the wrong way. Police responded to a stopped vehicle call and when they arrived they found the Land Rover stopped in the middle of Sir Francis Drake Boulevard. The boy apparently had stopped the car and refused to drive any further. (Link)

9. The man who lost his license after driving drunk in Barbie toy car

A man who was caught drink-driving in a toy car with a top speed of 4mph has been banned from driving. Paul Hutton, 40, was pulled over by police as he drove an electric Barbie car, which moves slower than a mobility scooter, near his home in Essex. He was given a mandatory three-year ban because he had received another drink-drive ban within the past ten years.

Mr Hutton, who has four children, admitted being a 'complete twit'. (Link | Via)
