Mermaids: The Body Found - Documentary

Mermaids: The Body Found is a docufiction that originally aired on May 27, 2012, on Animal Planet and June 17 on Discovery Channel. It tells a story of a scientific team's investigative efforts to uncover the source behind mysterious underwater recordings of an unidentified marine body. The show uses the aquatic ape hypothesis as "evidence" that mermaids exist, along with a digitally manufactured video.

A sequel broadcast called Mermaids: The New Evidence aired May 26, 2013.

Sunday, May 26, the channel Animal Planet aired in the U.S. a unique documentary called "Mermaids: The Body Found". The program lasted for two hours and was described as a blend of science fiction, but was so convincing that the The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) was simply overwhelmed by the huge number of people who blew their headquarters to ask if mermaids really exist.

Ratings
Mermaids: The Body Found received 3.4 million views during its US telecast premiere on Sunday, May 27, 2012. This is the network's most watched telecast since the Steve Irwin memorial special in September 2006.

US Government statement
In July 2012, the National Ocean Service (a branch of National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) stated that "no evidence of aquatic humanoids has ever been found".

Running time: 120 minutes

Screenplay: Charlie Foley, Sid Bennett, Vaibhav Bhatt
Story by: Charlie Foley, Vaibhav Bhatt

The idea of mermaids has tantalized seafarers for millenia, and as part of Monster Week on Animal Planet, the network aired Charlie Foley's "speculative documentary" on the aquatic creatures.

Could mermaids actually exist?

"Mermaids: The Body Found" (Sun., 9 p.m. ET on Animal Planet) posed questions like, what would mermaids look like (let's just say, these CGI mermaids weren't wearing bikini tops made out of sea shells) and how would they reproduce?

The film contained never before seen footage of what was purported to be a mermaid washed up on a beach in Washington State. Not only was the creature alive, it was far removed from the hair-combing fairytale mermaids of yore, and it seemed pretty pissed.

By Kostov Konstantin When it comes to looking at contemporary paintings with the intent of buying, many who do not understand abstract art might just think the most expensive paintings, and the artworks created by well known artists, are the best. Prints and originals can create a life of their own and help a room come alive. Take a look around. Modern art is everywhere, in offices, houses, and businesses. Many people do not give them a second glance, but when that special piece really strikes you, it can be a life changing experience. --> Painting by Ligia Fiedler --> The most famous abstract artists is most likely to be Jackson Pollack . This legendary American born drip painter of the mid forties created very large pieces of artwork by laying an un-stretched canvas on the floor or ground and dripping and splattering paint on it. He never used traditional paintbrushes; instead, he used sticks and basting syringes to apply gloss enamel paint to the surface. The artwor

Real vs. Fake Paco Rabanne "One Million"

Image
"1 Million" by Paco Rabanne is one of the most common fragrances in the world, and commonly faked, mostly in the 100mL size. Here's the front of the boxes (fake left - Gen right) two differences really. The genuine box has a much shinier gold color to it rather than the nearly mat golf finish on the fake. The print isn't so fine on the fake, on the M bellow the 1 it should have ribs down the middle but the fake some of them are missing.  Bottom of the boxes (fake left - Gen right) has a different layout and the stamped serial number is a bit clearer on the original one.  Tops of the boxes, the PR on the fake isn't quite straight   The backs (fake left - original right) once again different lay out but like I said I'm not sure if this is just an old reused box or a fake one!  Front of the actual bottles. As you can see there is a color difference, the fake has a rosey tinge to the gold where as the real one looks like a lig
