A photographer takes picture of an automotive model during the 36th Bangkok International Motor Show in Bangkok, Thailand, March 24, 2015. No automotive event is complete without the latest offering of high-end cars and motorcycles, and the obligatory accessories stationed at each booth: nubile, young auto-show girls in skimpy, skinsqueezing outfits. This year's Bangkok International Motor Show did not disappoint, attracting a larger horde of eager, flesh-seeking photographers than actual fans of automobiles.

The northeastern United States sweltered this week in a scorching summer heat wave, complete with stagnant, sticky air and no winds for relief, forecasters said.

"Plain and simple, this week may feel the worst of any week for this summer in the Northeast," said Accuweather.com meteorologist Alex Sosnowski. (Reuters)

Based on the layout of Helm’s Deep featured in Peter Jackson’s film adaptation, this 150,000 brick set piece is astounding. The artists, who go by the names Rich-K and Big J, apparently, nail the atmosphere and scale of the conflict of one Lord of the Rings most iconic scenes. At the time these photos were taken, the model was about 90% complete, with an estimated four months worth of work. The time, money and personal investment that must have gone into this project is impressive.
