Amazing!!! Sexy Girls Made From Cabbages


Amazing!!! Sexy Girls Made From Cabbages. These glamour & sexy models look good enough to eat but they won't turn women green with envy - because they are made entirely of cabbage. Artist Ju Duoqi created the bizarre sculptures for her project called 'The Fantasies of Chinese Cabbage'. The wacky works of art show glamorous looking women in a series of poses usually found in glossy fashion magazines. Every piece of the sculpture is made from the vegetable, including their clothes, hats and jewellery. 


Ju, from Beijing, China, uses a knife to slice the different colours and varieties of cabbage and holds them together using toothpicks. The cabbage is left to age for varying lengths of time and then cooked in different ways to achieve a range of colours and textures.
Ju has previously used other vegetables to recreate famous paintings by artists such as Leonardo Da Vinci, Vincent Van Gogh and Andy Warhol. She said: 'The different types, shapes and colours of the vegetables, with a bit of rearranging, can make for a rich source of imagery. 'Fresh, withered, rotting, dried, pickled, boiled or fried - they all come out different.'
Here are The Other Fantasies of Chinese Cabbage :

10 Most Creepy Fairy Tales (Original Version)

The nice stories with fairies, nice dwarves, heroes and heroines. Little did we know that we were being fed the filtered version of these stories. In reality, most of these stories are laden with really creepy and gory themes that were crafted to frighten children into the right behavior. Here are 10 Most Creepy Fairy Tales We All Know in Original Version :

1. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs


The original version had the evil Queen demanding Snow White’s heart as proof of her death. The hunter in a rare act of kindness lets Snow White go, and instead brings the Queen the heart of a deer. The story pretty much unfolds as everyone remembers it, Snow White hooks up with some dwarves who agree to house her, she eats the dreaded poison apple, a prince saves her and that’s the end of that. But what we don’t get to see in the Disney version is that the Queen is made to pay for her wicked deeds by wearing a heated pair of iron shoes that she is forced to dance in until she falls dead. Snow White is apparently no one to eff with. 

2. Cinderella


According to the original version of this tale, most likely not. In an older version, the wicked step-mother (we’re sensing an anti-stepmom trend here) demands that her daughters find a way to fit into the prince’s glass slipper. They oblige their mother by cutting off parts of their feet. This almost works until birds alert the prince of their wrong doing. Eventually, Cinderella fits into the slipper and marries the prince. But wait, there’s more. As a wedding present, the birds saw it fit to peck out the eyes of the evil step-family and present them to Cinderella who lives happily in the castle while they live the rest of their miserable existence as blind beggars.

3. Hansel and Gretel



For many kids, their biggest fear is being left behind by their parents and this story really plays into those fears. The brother and sister are left to fend for themselves in the woods by their wicked mother and their totally whipped father. You know the rest, they find a candy house inhabited by a witch. But not just any witch, a cannibalistic witch with a hankering for some kid meat. That right there is enough to scare most kids so bad they forget their potty training. Eventually the kids escape by tricking the witch into burning herself alive in her own stove. They eventually find their way back home to find that their wicked mother has passed away. They live happily ever after knowing that all their enemies have died. Adorable. 

4. Little Red Riding Hood
 


This classic went through a few revisions before it became the staple of bedtime stories around the world. In the bloodiest version, there is no hunter that saves the day and the evil wolf is actually a were wolf (but not the type to fall in love with.) After killing and dressing himself up as grandmother, the werewolf feeds bits and pieces of the deceased to Red Riding Hood. Eventually she sees through the disguise and finds a way to escape. But it’s pretty safe to say that Red Riding Hood probably had some issues to deal with after that incident. 

5. The Little Mermaid
 


You might be asking yourself “How could this tale be creepy? There were singing shellfish and they had charming Jamaican accents!” Wrong version. The original version reads a bit like a romantic tragedy. In that version, the mermaid gives up her fins to meet the prince of her dreams. There’s a few drawbacks though: not only is she mute, she also constantly feels like she is walking on knives. Yeah. In the end, the prince ends up marrying the neighboring princess anyway, breaking the poor mermaid’s heart. However, she is given a way out when she is given a magical knife that she is to kill the prince with, once that happens, she can become a mermaid again. Even after all that, she cannot bring herself to kill the prince, instead turning the knife on herself. 

6. Goldilocks And The 3 Bears


 
In this heart warming tale, we hear of pretty little goldilocks who finds the house of the three bears. She sneaks inside and eats their food, sits in their chairs, and finally falls asleep on the bed of the littlest bear. When the bears return home they find her asleep, she awakens and escapes out the window in terror. But, the original version tale has two possible variations. In the first, the bears find Goldilocks and rip her apart and eat her. In the second, Goldilocks is actually an old hag who jumps out of a window when the bears wake her up. The story ends by telling us that she either broke her neck in the fall, or was arrested for vagrancy and sent to the “House of Correction”.

7. The Pied Piper


In the modern tale of the Pied Piper, we have a village over run with rats. A man arrives dressed in clothes of pied (a patchwork of colors) and offers to rid the town of the vermin (destructive small animals and insects). The villagers agree to pay a vast sum of money if the piper can do it , and he does. He plays music on his pipe which draws all the rats out of the town. When he returns for payment, the villagers won’t cough up so the Pied Piper decides to rid the town of children too! The piper draws the children to a cave out of the town. And when the townsfolk finally agree to pay up, he sends them back. But, in the darker original version of this tale, the piper leads the children to a river where they all drown (except a lame boy who couldn’t keep up).

8. Sleeping Beauty 


In the modern sleeping beauty, the lovely princess is put to sleep when she pricks her finger on a spindle caused by the curse of the black fairy. She sleeps for one hundred years when a prince finally arrives, kisses her, and awakens her. They fall in love, marry, and live happily ever after. It is 100% completely different from the original version !!! The original tale is not so sweet. In the original, the young woman is put to sleep because of a prophesy (revelation of divine will), rather than a curse. And it isn’t the kiss of a prince which wakes her up...but the king seeing her asleep, and rather fancying having a bit, rapes her. After nine months she gives birth to two children (while she is still asleep). One of the children sucks her finger which removes the piece of flax (a widely cultivated plant) which was keeping her asleep. She wakes up to find herself raped and the mother of two kids.

9. Rumplestiltskin
 


This story doesn’t even need any amending to be scary as all hell. The plot follows a miller’s daughter who is forced to try to spin straw into gold or be executed. When all hope seems lost, a little man appears to help the girl with her task. All she has to do is give him a few pieces of jewelry and her first-born child. Uh what? When the time comes for the dwarf to collect his prize, the girl evades being the worst mother ever by guessing the dwarf’s name: Rumplestiltskin; the dwarf responds by tearing himself in two. The moral of the story? Never trust a little man that appears in your house late at night

10. The Robber Bridegroom
 


One of the lesser-known fairy tales in the Brothers Grimm catalog, The Robber Bridegroom is a story of an engagement gone horribly wrong. When the unsuspecting bride to be enters her husband’s house, she is quickly made aware that she is going to be eaten by her fiance and his pack of murdering cronies. She hides herself behind a barrel until she escapes, but not before witnessing the butchering of another unfortunate female. Before she escapes, she picks up the dead woman’s severed finger which she presents before her wedding party. Eventually the robber and his crew are put to death.

15 Unique Women Who Breastfeed Animals

A new mother will be proud if she can breastfeeds her lovely baby. But, What if  a human breastfeeds an animal????
Here are 15 Unique Women Who Breastfeed Animals, weird or wonderfull ???

1.Tori Amos suckling pig


Tori Amos is no Madonna, but she still knows how to make a statement. When she released Boys for Pele, she included an image of a piglet suckling on her breast (pictured above). The statement was heard; conservative America went into a tizzy. It’s been said the piglet experience inspired her to motherhood… but people say a lot of things.

2. Papua New Guinea women breastfeed pigs


What you’re looking at is considered normal among certain indigenous tribes throughout New Guinea. Are the pigs getting hungry? No problem… Susan will go out and feed ‘em. In exchange, the pigs help out around the house. For instance, they’ll scour the sweet potato fields for scrap peelings and churn the soil in the process. Seems fair in my book.

3. The Woman Who Breastfeeds Her Cat


Janine Hammond took the idea of being a “cat lady” to a whole new level. She doesn’t keep a thousand cats like the typical cat lady… instead she’s made a habit of breastfeeding him. Then again, maybe she just has a thing for breastfeeding; she also suckles her guinea pig and pet shire horse. The only one that doesn’t enjoy her breast milk is her newborn son.

4. Kate Garraway Posed Feeding a Calf to Promote a Documentary on Wet Nurses Called Other People’s Breast Milk


Here’s food for thought: why is it accepted for a cow to breastfeed our children, while the idea of a woman breastfeeding a calf is seen as absurd? Does it violate the rules of nature? Why, then, are we giving our children cow milk if interspecies feeding is so appalling? These are some of the questions that Other People’s Breast Milk explores… and, as might be expected, there was massive outcry over the promo picture above.

5. Woman Breastfeeds Tigers


Here’s the story: three tiger cubs are born to a homicidal mother, who tears one to bloody shreds. Hla Htay, a zookeeper at Yangon Zoological Gardens, helps save the remaining two and volunteers to nurse them from her own breast. Touching story, no? As an aside, Htay has made it clear that she doesn’t plan to continue breastfeeding once the cubs grow teeth.


6. Bishnoi Woman Breastfeeds Found Fawn



Vijay Luxmi Sau went to visit her parents out of town. She came home with a new addition to the family – a female baby fawn. Rumor has it that the fawn’s mother abandoned it when a pack of stray dogs attacked. Vijay found the fawn scared and hungry; she began breastfeeding the fawn and brought the new “baby” home to her husband and 7 month old human child.

7. Woman breastfeeds bull terrier puppy



KuraKatTumanako has a baby girl (named Honey Pauline) and a bull terrier puppy. They’re like brother and sister… sort of. To make up for the differences in appearance, Kat is trying to solidify the brother-sister bond by breastfeeding them both. It remains to be seen whether the idea worked.

8. Woman Breastfeeds Endangered Golden Monkey



You can count the number of golden monkeys in the world on one hand. If it wasn’t for Mrs. Chen Yongiian, we would all have to fold over yet another finger. You see, when Didi (a newly born golden money) was rebuked by his mother it was feared he would develop a serious illness. Mrs. Youngiian agreed to feed the monkey indefinitely, diminishing the chance of his sickness.


9. Indian woman breastfeeds pet calf


Some people really love their pets. Chouthi Bai, an Indian from the Kilchu village, is one of them. Her pet calf is 23 days old in this picture, and has enjoyed breast milk every single one of them.

10. Woman Breastfeeds Puppy In South Africa



Teddy the dog is living the life. When he isn’t sleeping or running around, he’s busy drinking Ntswaki Nkabinde’s breast milk. In Nkabinde’s view, Teddy is part of the family and should be treated as such. The only problem is her family thinks she’s gone crazy but Nkabinde “[doesn’t] care what anyone says.”

11. Jennipher Alupot, forced to breastfeed the puppies of her husband’s hunting dogs



Jennipher Alupot was “earned” when her father traded her in marriage in exchange for two cows. Her new husband, now without a source of milk, would strap his wife to the bed and allow his hunting dogs to suckle her breast throughout the night. This sadistic ritual endured through 2 different childbirths – a total of 7 years – and Jennipher thinks her breast milk was contaminated in the process. Her third and youngest son died before his second birthday.

12. Awa Guaja Tribe Woman Breastfeeds Wild Animals



For the Awa Guaja tribe in the Brazilian Amazon basin, community means more than humans. It also includes monkeys, which are considered sacred animals. The monkeys are taken from their mothers after birth and grow up sleeping, playing and breastfeeding alongside human children.

13. The mother who Breastfeeds pet monkey



It’s hard to let motherhood go… just ask Namita Das. When her adult children flew the coop, she began breastfeeding her other “son” – a baby monkey. Namita’s husband found the monkey dying after a brutal storm hit. Namita nurtured it back to health, and continues to mother the orphaned animal like one of her own.

14. Amazonian Woman Breastfeeds Monkey



An indigenous woman nursing a Woolly monkey (Lagothrix lagotricha) in the Amazon rain forest. Curiously, it is not uncommon for indigenous women in the Amazon to breastfeed a young monkey whose mother has died. Often during hunting, the mother will be killed leaving behind her young. Indigenous Amazonians often adopt the young monkey as a pet, hence the women breastfeeding the monkey in the above picture. 


15. Pennsylvania Mountain Lady Breastfeeds Child and Deer


In the 1930’s, the “Pennsylvania Mountain Lady” epitomized the savage lifestyle of America’s hillbillies. But what’s so wrong about breastfeeding deer next to your child? Then again, don’t answer that.
