Cartoon Characters just entered 3D Universe
Have you discovered these guys somewhat familiar. There's one thing about them, you have noticed them before, but can’t guess who are they. Oh, yeah, they’re your favorite cartoon characters. But not as you might be applied to seeing them on cartoon network or Disney TV channel, these are cartoon characters in 3D.
This is what they would appear like if they had been true and walk close to your neighborhood. Some appear quite funny, others appear a bit scary and it's clear they must stay in their 2D world rather than 3D. I don’t think that lots of youngsters wouldn’t like Popeye seeking like he does in 3D at all. On the other hand Calvin & Hobbes or Johnny Bravo seems sort of cool rendered inside the 3D world.

Afghanistan is better known for dog fighting, but the new generation is trying to make a change…for the worst, by introducing donkey fighting.
Dog fighting had been forbidden as a sport by the Taliban, but since the American invasion and the fall of the old regime, the cruel sport has returned, drawing huge crowds,l near the capital of Kabul. Unfortunately, the younger generations apparently have no intention of wising-up, instead they’re introducing a new blood-sport, donkey fighting.
These photos, taken near a German armed forces encampment, in Kunduz, show a young boy pitting to poor donkeys into fighting each other, while the other children watch the violence display smiling.
