  • Phil Smith and Randy BASE jumping from New River Gorge bridge, Bridge day, West Virginia, USA. BASE jumping is the sport of using a parachute to jump from fixed objects. "BASE" is an acronym that stands for the four categories of objects from which one can jump; (B)uilding, (A)ntenna (an uninhabited tower such as an aerial mast), (S)pan (a bridge, arch or dome), and (E)arth (a cliff or other natural formation). BASE jumping is much more dangerous than skydiving from aircraft and is currently regarded as a fringe extreme sport. -from Wikipedia .

  • (1992) Forensic science laboratory using DNA fingerprinting. Overhead view of laboratory technicians checking DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) autoradiograms. Labeling the DNA fragments in an electrophoresis gel with a radioactive marker chemical produces these. The gel is then placed on a piece of X-ray film; the radiation from the marker leaves a dark patch, representing each fragment, on the film after development. Comparison of autorads from two samples of DNA is the method by which a correlation may be made - so-called DNA fingerprinting.

  • Tourists negotiate their way to the Taj Mahal Bangladesh, a replica of India's famed Taj Mahal erected by Ahsanullah Moni, a millionaire film director and business man from Bangladesh. He says he built it because most  Bangladeshi people cannot afford the trip to Agra, India to see the real thing. The entry fee for his replica is 50 Taka, about  0.75 USD. There is a 25-room hotel facing the Bangla Taj and he says his plans include a film studio and center nearby. The construction of the main Taj will be completed in about a month but the tourist attraction is now open to the public. Moni claims about 20,000 people visit daily. There is only a single lane two kilometer road winding through the surrounding rice fields connecting the main road to his attraction, near the town of Sonargaon, about 30 kilometers from Dhaka.
