![]() | Hole in the water Strange phenomenon seen in a lake in Eastern Japan... (edit #2) It is actually an art piece by Shiro Matsui: http://www.city.ube.yamaguchi.jp/choukoku/22/index_e.htm It is the most fascinating of all the sculptures, IMHO. We stand there watching an empty space! From time to time the hole disappears briefly. The whole thing apparently weights 3 tons (presumably the underwater equipment, not the hole itself) "With sculpture the original material evokes a sense of weight and gravity, which expresses a sense of reality. This characteristic is the unique power of sculpture. With painting two-dimensionality is a given, yet we are able to share the illusion of time and space. With my piece I am trying to merge these characteristics, by using real materials in the real world, yet having the power of illusion that painting holds." |

![]() | underground ufo tunel in guatemala ? GUATEMALA CITY -February 23, 2007- Emergency crews Saturday found a third body in a 330-foot-deep sinkhole that had swallowed a dozen homes and forced the evacuation of nearly 1,000 people in a crowded Guatemala City neighborhood. The body of Domingo Soyos, 53, was carried out of the enormous fissure and identified by family members, medical crews said. Soyos was the father of teenagers Irma and David Soyos, whose bodies were found floating in a river of sewage soon after the sinkhole opened Friday. Residents said there were other people unaccounted for, but emergency crews could not confirm that. Officials blamed recent rains and an underground sewage flow from a ruptured main for the tragedy. The pit emitted foul odors, loud noises and tremors, shaking the surrounding ground. A rush of water could be heard from its depths, and authorities feared it could widen or other sinkholes could open. Police evacuated nearby homes and cordoned off a 500-yard perimeter around the crater. Security officials were on guard for possible looters and curious onlookers. |
