BY JOHN 14 HOURS AGO IN: BACHELOR PADS, HIGH-RES, RANDOM

A massive penthouse condo atop a luxury high-rise in San Francisco’s South of Market is being offered for a staggering $49 million, shattering local real estate records.

The Lumina high-rise project is a couple of years away from completion, but the 15,000 square foot penthouse that takes up two stories atop one of the towers is already open for bidding.

“It’s truly an iconic view home,” Gregg Lynn of Sotheby’s International. “Once you can get to the 42nd story of a building downtown, you really have the whole world at your feet.”

The price tag smashes a San Francisco residential real estate record, set recently by a Pacific Heights home that listed for $39 million.

There’s a family room, a library, a movie studio. All the things you would want to have in a mansion in the sky...

In the Lord of the Rings trilogy, there is an entrance to a cave known as the 'Doors of Durin'. Their purpose was to protect a dwarven city, and if anyone wanted to enter through the doors they must speak the password.

Imgur user Eclipse_007 was apparently inspired by this scene, and decided to build his own 'Doors of Durin' that led into his home theatre.

Bryant was not so pleased with the news though, as he expressed on Twitter. He joins a long list of NFLers who have been dissatisfied with the rule, but what is the franchise tag and why are players unhappy with it?

Ever wonder what your favorite celeb would look like if she was squishy? (18 HQ Photos)

Katy Perry

20-year-old Spanish artist David Lopera started to Photoshop his favorite celebrities with more of a squishy feel. Lopera believes his project helps promote healthier body image and self esteem by reminding people it’s OK to be a bit on the curvier side. Others, however, believe he is doing the opposite and making fun of both the celebrities and plus-sized women. I think it's hilarious, and his shop skills are above average and appreciated. What do you think about this controversial project?
