The ships of Battlestar Galactica, immortalized in thousands of LEGO bricks

LEGO enthusiasts Garry King has a simple mission — to build the spacecraft ofBattlestar Galactica out of thousands upon thousands of tiny plastic bricks. So far, he’s constructed a sizable fleet of Colonial and Cylon craft.

Let’s start with his most recent craft, William Adama’s Battlestar Valkyrie from Battlestar Galactica: The Plan. This ship is 10 feet long, weighs 110 pounds, and is built out of 42,341 LEGO bricks.

Perhaps the Most Beautiful Undersea Photography We’ve Ever Seen

Russian photographer Alexander Semenov creates photographs of marine life that just burst with color and energy. You may have understood, on some intellectual level, that the ocean depths are an ecosystem, teeming with life and all connected. But looking at these stunning photos will make you see it in a new way.

Founded by Abernathy Axe and Richard Flannel in 1946, Axe & Flannel began as an attempt to save a dying breed; The Lumberjack. For Axe and Flannel, no log was too big, no forest too wide. Two men so manly, they could make any woman swoon within a 10 mile radius. So strong they could snap redwoods in their bare hands.

So handsome they made grizzly bears weep and newborn babies cry. Today we continue their legacy, taking pride in all of our hand made products and top quality, all natural ingredients. Because we all secretly have a romantic relationship with our facial hair, and can never have too many pancakes. So carry on, and keep the dream alive.
