It Was My Decision to Leave Transformers

Reports came out today that Megan Fox was dropped from Transformers 3 because director Michael Bay wanted to "move in a direction". Translation: He was sick of her shit. We can go back and forth all day about his filmmaking skills, but he made her a star and she took every opportunity to shit all over the movie and everyone involved hated her. So naturally, she says it was her decision to leave. Megan Fox is seeking to transform rumor to fact. The actress is slamming speculation she was booted from the third installment of the Transformers action film franchise. “Megan Fox will not be starring in Transformers 3," reps for the actress, 24, tell PEOPLE. "It was her decision not to return. She wishes the franchise the best.”

Baby Lemurs Born at Busch Gardens

Busch Gardens Tampa Bay welcomed two endangered baby red-ruffed lemurs on April 21. The babies are the first lemurs to be born at Jambo Junction, home to the parks’ animal ambassadors, since parents Maditra and Bozeny arrived as babies three years ago. The sex of the babies has yet to be determined, but they are developing well overall, according to trainers. They are getting braver each day, and exploring their habitat under the watchful eye of Mom and Dad. They currently weigh about 300 grams or a little more than half a pound; lemurs average about 80 grams, or .17 of a pound, at birth. They grow to be about 8 to 10 pounds. All species of lemurs are native to the island of Madagascar. Red-ruffed lemurs are one of nearly about 50 lemur species. Busch Gardens is home to five lemur species. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service considers all lemurs endangered. Lemurs are endangered largely due to habitat destruction. Their forests are destroyed for their wood and to grow agricultural crops.

Kelly Ripa’s Tight Badass Bikini Pictures

After my first set of Kelly Ripa bikini pictures were ripped from the site by some big bad scary douche lawyers and then the second set let us down by showing a little too much children for my taste. Finally I’ve got some clear shots of Kelly Ripa alone in her bikini showing off her crazy tight mom body. She’s hot and all but that bellybutton is freaking me out… get one of the kids to chew it off.

Ghostly Fogbow Shimmers Between The Mountains At Sunrise

It could be the legendary hall of the mountain king from Peer Gynt, but if you tried to enter this foggy corridor it would simply dissolve around you. The hallway is an optical illusion known as a fogbow. It was created by sunlight reflecting off a cloud that had passed below the mountain where this picture was taken. The impressive archway was captured on La Palma in the Canary Islands by 23-year-old Alex Tudorica. The Romanian photographer captured it on a trip to the Isaac Newton Telescope at the Observatorio del Roque de los Muchachos. He told the Mail Online: 'One morning after my observations I decided to watch the sunrise near the astronomers' residence even though I was really tired.

You Built What?! A Real Iron Man Suit

Anthony Le, 25, has been a fan of Iron Man since he was a kid, but when he heard that the comic-book superhero was hitting the big screen in 2008, he was inspired to build his own Iron Man suit. That version was more of a costume, but his new one, finished just in time for the movie’s sequel, edges much closer to the real thing. With its dent-proof exterior, motorized faceplate and spinning mock Gatling gun, his take on the movie’s War Machine suit could easily frighten a supervillain. Le, a fitness consultant, studied some concept sketches of the suit posted on the Internet. He used thin, high-impact urethane for the armor, cutting it into plates and joining them with some 1,500 rivets and washers. He sculpted a clay helmet mold and then used a liquid resin mix to create the final product. But that was just cosmetic work. He also added a small servo motor that opens the faceplate, as in the movie, and built a gun out of pipes and a motor. LEDs in the eyes and chest-plate further add to the illusion. Le plans to wear the suit to the movie and already has quite a following, especially at sci-fi conventions. “I’m kind of hard to miss,” he says.

1200hp "Super Veyron" Winds The Rumor Mill Again

A car as powerful as the Bugatti Veyron can do a great many things. Crest the 400 km/h mark. Burn through fuel and rubber faster than a jumbo jet on take-off with the parking brake engaged. But how about stop time? Maybe if you lay down all that twist in the opposite direction off the earth's rotation. Or bring back a rumor that first reared its head some four years ago. We're talking about the long-rumored 1,200-horsepower "super Veyron." Its arrival has been anticipated for years, and now accounts from Germany are bringing it back to life. According to the reports, Professor Ferdinand Piëch – the former Volkswagen chairman, Porsche heir and father of the Veyron – recently delivered a lecture at the Vienna University of Technology, wherein he briefly alluded to the emergence of the 1,200-hp Veyron, but revealed no further details.

Table Top 80s Arcade Game - Made entirely of LEGO

Aside from the obvious electronics, everything is LEGO. It uses a Jamma 48-1 board to play a variety of 80's arcade game including Pac-Man, Donky Kong, Space Invaders and many more. An overall view. It's about 34" tall.. Four pieces of 1/4" all thread run vertically through the courners to help hold things together in transit. Here, the control console is removed. Top left is an ATX power supply. Top right is the Jamma 48-1 PCB. Lower portion is the control console (turned upsdie down) with push buttons and a switchable 4-way/8-way joystick. (Some games work better with 8-way joysticks, others with 4-way joysticks.) The control console is held in with four technic pins hidden panels. Some screws are used to hold the joystick in place, No LEGO pieces were cut or altered to make this. Here is a view inside the back access door. The white cord on the top leads to two powered speakers for sound.
