What you see on those photos is a Windows XP error box floating in thin air. That’s not photoshop or post effect of too much vodka.
That night there was strong fog in this Ukrainian city so due to it such an awesome illusion of windows in the skies appeared – there was an advertisement screen nearby and it went out of order.
Had this happened during the day, would it have been a Blue Sky of Death?

OK, I promised myself I wouldn’t publish any more blog posts about Knut the formerly-cute, still-German polar bear. But I just had to laugh at the latest AP story about the arrival of the bear’s new “lady friend” Giovanna.
The article was quick to point out that the two animals won’t be mating since two-year-old polar bears aren’t yet sexually mature. But then it adds the following footnote:
Knut was hand-raised after his mother rejected him at birth. He rose to stardom in 2007 as a cute white ball of fluff, but has since grown into a hulking predator.
A hulking predator! Wow. That’s quite a departure from the AP’s last story about him, which described him as “beloved”. And several months before that, they labeled him a “superstar” (while zoologists were calling him a “psychopath”.)
So there you have it: Knut the once beloved superstar turned psychopath predator. Why does that sound familiar?(*cough* OJ Simpson *cough*)
