Burlacul a ales-o pe Violeta!
La capatul a doua luni de competitie, Violeta a devenit perechea Burlacului. Blonda a trait cu mari emotii finala, dar si cu incredere. Intalnirea pe care Burlacul a avut-o cu ea pe inserat s-a dovedit una vesela si incarcata cu tensiune sexuala.
Imediat dupa alegere, Burlacul a dezvaluit motivele pentru care a preferat-o pe Violeta, recunoscand la finalul acestui reality show ca el unul se simte atras de misterul feminin si nu de prajiturile servite pe tava.

If you glow down to the woods today… the moment fireflies turn woods into an enchanted forest
By Daily Mail Reporter
Fireflies produce a "cold light", with no infrared or ultraviolet frequencies. This chemically-produced light from the lower abdomen may be yellow, green, or pale red
No, these aren't deleted scenes from James Cameron's sci-fi epic Avatar - these spectacular images show mesmerising phosphorescent patterns swirling through a forest that are all produced by earthbound insects.
Amateur photographer and full time physicist Kristian Cvecek spends nights in woodlands waiting for fireflies to come out so he can capture them on camera.
German Kristian, 31, from Erlangan, near Nuremburg, photographs the creatures near his home. He uses slow shutter speeds to capture on camera their movements between the trees and ferns.
Here Kristian has captured the moment that a firefly has alighted on a fir cone in the forest near his home in Erlangen
Fireflies are winged beetles and give off a green luminous glow from chemicals in their lower abdomen in a process called bioluminescence.
As babies - the larval stage of the insects' lives - they use their glow to warn off predators but as adults they use the same phenomenon to attract mates.
He said: 'The fireflies are also called in some regions "'St. John bugs" because they start to fly at around the St. John's Night which is between the 23rd and 24th of June.'
Using a slow shutter speed on the camera makes the fireflies appear to leave ghostly phosphorescent trails between the trees
In Germany, many people celebrate the summer solstice with a bonfire and name it after St John. 'Depending on the weather they can start to fly earlier in the month and fly for around 3-4 weeks' added Kristian.
'As I don't have the opportunity to go into the woods every night, I always have a limited amount of nights to shoot them, so getting the pictures I wanted took a lot of perseverance..'
'They come out between nine and 10 o'clock at night, so it is already quite dark and they show up nicely against the dark background.'
There are some 2,000 species of firefly found in temperate and tropical environments. Most are to be found are in marshes or in wetland environments
There are many different species of firefly, from a variety that produces no light at all to one that imitates the 'mating' light of other species, to lure hopeful males into becoming supper

Terrified mother confronts ‘noisy burglar’ in her kitchen only to find… an orphaned baby otter
By Daily Mail Reporter
Lost and lonely: The baby otter was hungry and dehydrated. It is now being looked after by the RSPCA
A petrified housewife tiptoed downstairs to confront what she thought was a noisy burglar in her kitchen only to find - a little orphaned baby otter.
Sheila Manisier , 44, discovered the three-month-old mammal foraging for scraps after her daughter Laura Manisier-Hilton, 13, heard noises at their home.
Brave Sheila crept into the kitchen fully expecting to find an intruder but instead spotted the foot-long juvenile otter cowering underneath her kitchen table.
Healthcare manager Sheila fed the female otter a £10 piece of raw cod and has now handed it over to the RSPCA.
Sheila, who believes the otter entered the house in Taverham, Norfolk, through an open back door said she 'couldn't believe' her eyes.
She said: 'When I first saw it I thought it could be a rat but when I got closer I saw the brown fur and long tail and realised it was something else.
'I've never seen an otter in the wild before, let alone under my kitchen table so it was such a shock.
'It was so lucky it came into our home because we are real animal lovers and so I had a dog crate in the garage which I was able to put it into.
'I'd also been shopping that morning so had a lovely piece of raw cod in the fridge, which the otter jumped on and gobbled up so quickly.
Night-time surprise: Sheila Manisier, with daughter Laura (right) and au pair Larisa Ionita. She is holding the bowl she unsuccessfully tried to get the otter to drink from
'I put out a bowl of water for it to drink as well but it didn't understand it could drink it and instead tipped it over and rolled in it.
'We are still finding it hard to believe that it happened, but feel very privileged that it did.' Sheila and keen horse rider Laura, who live with Romanian au pair Larissa Ionita, 22, heard their dogs barking at 11.45pm on Monday.
She was concerned that a burglar may have entered the property but was relieved to discover the otter.
The RSPCA are now caring for the kitten at East Winch rehabilitation centre in King's Lynn, Norfolk.
A spokeswoman for the RSPCA revealed that the otter is 'very young' and should have remained with her parents until she was one year old.
She said: 'The otter has been examined by a vet. She is quite poorly and very dehydrated and has been given fluids and antibiotics.
'We have no idea how it came to be in the home, but juvenile otters can be naive and can get into all kinds of trouble if they wander away from their mum.'

Amazing happenings-California watermelon snow
If you're currently in the Sierra Nevada in California (USA), then you're in the hands and see a real snow watermelon, which has not only the structure and the smell, but the color and even the taste of watermelon! Here at an altitude of three thousand feet there is a unique wonder of nature.
For millennia, the secret of snow watermelon surprised scientists around the world. Even in the treatises on the nature of Aristotle was marked by this natural phenomenon. It draws on the snow slopes of the local mountain climbers from around the world. Vast expanses of pink snow open by the end of spring. And the mystery, as many might have guessed, lies in the microscopic algae called Chlamydomonas nivalis. Every inch of snow contains millions of microscopic particles, the depth of which can reach 25 centimeters.
Local people sometimes eat the snow, so as to distinguish it from the watermelon, rather watermelon ice cream, is quite difficult. However, some of these algae are poisonous. Not fatally, but may cause diarrhea
