10 Amazing Dangerous toothpaste ingredients
Toothpaste even though (in some form or another) has been around as long as the Ancient Greeks have, the formula (as we know it) did not become popular until World War I. As soon as companies began manufacturing toothpaste, people began to purchase the magical concoction - guaranteed to produce glistening teeth! White teeth were all the rage after World War I had ended, and toothpaste quickly became a product that most people simply couldn't live without.
Toothpaste is one item that nearly everyone uses today, but what makes this concoction so special? Whether you brush your teeth once per day or three times per day, chances are that you've never taken the time to read that ingredient list. Some believe that the ingredients contained in a standard package of toothpaste are essential - others believe that water may be just as effective. In the end, there's a good reason why most toothpaste packages warn: "Do Not Ingest!"

Train that 'Never Stops'
Chinese Concept - The train that never stops at a station:
A brilliant new Chinese train innovation - Get on & off the bullet train without the train stopping. VERY COOL CONCEPT! No time is wasted. The bullet train is moving all the time. If there are 30 stations between Beijing and Guangzhou, just stopping and accelerating again at each station will waste both energy and time.
A mere 5 min stop per station (elderly passengers cannot be hurried) will result in a total loss of 5 min x 30 stations or 2.5 hours of train journey time!

Ardi Rizal - 2 Years old Boy Smokes 40 Cigarettes A Day
Seeing him rest on the steering-wheel of his toy truck, smoking a cigarette, you might think he's a truck driver stuck in the body of a toddler, but Ardi Rizal is really just a two-year old boy who loves to smoke.
The 56 pound toddler, from Indonesia's South Sumatra province, smokes 2 packs of cigarettes a day and sits on his toy truck all day long. There's hardly ever a moment in the day when Ardi isn't puffing away on a cigarette, and that's the main reason why he can hardly move by himself anymore, let alone run along and play with other children.

Safety pin Art ! Geez !
During the “Rojo Nova Work in Progress” exhibition at the Sao Paolo Museum of Image and Sound, Australian artist Lucy McRae showcased her unique safety pin art.
