We’re all probably familiar with Stephen King’s legendary horror stories. One of the more iconic pieces is the 1983 horror novel Pet Sematary that was turned into a horror thriller and hit the screens in 1989.

World War II is known to be the deadliest conflict in human history. Somewhere between 50 to 85 million people lost their lives due to the pointless, mindless war that was based on two Utopian ideologies. One of the most atrocious acts done by Nazis was the wiping out of the Lidice village located in former Czechoslovakia (now in the territory of Czech Republic).

These photos cannot be called rare but still they are very cool to look at. They were taken in 1899 at Wolfsgarten castle not far from Darmstadt. On the photos are emperor Nicholas II, his spouse Alexandra Fedorovna and their friends – princess Ingeborg of Denmark, the Duchess of Darmstadt and prince Nicholas of Greece.

If you are not familiar with Maschinen Krieger (abbreviated as Ma.K) here is a little bit of background. The franchise was started by Kow Yokoyama in the 1980’s. Yokoyama-san was a scratch-build modeller, artist and sculptor. Among his works he built machines of war that would fight in the 29th century, but took their visual cues from early 19th century weaponry and the early NASA space program. All his models were pieced together from numerous kits.

Something’s really wrong with this world when something comes up, like Canadians who can’t pay for their healthcare anymore.

Aren’t moms just the best? They tend to you when you’re sick as a kid, read a bedtime story and rock until you fall asleep, blow on your wounded knee after just another fall and keep supporting your craziest dreams no matter what. And yes, as cheesy as it gets, I will say it’s unconditional love. And we have Ryan McCormick’s story to prove it as his mom was the only passenger left waiting after long hours for the plane he was supposed to pilot.

Recently, a Wildlife Hospital in the U.K. had an especially flamboyant-looking ‘patient’. Some good people saw the poor bright orange bird on the side of the road that was unable to fly. The kind people took it to the Tiggywinkles Wildlife Hospital to make sure it was okay. Turns out, the bird was neither tropical nor exotic – just a curious seagull that somehow got himself all covered in curry.

Just like New Year’s, July 4 isn’t exactly a holiday for most pups. In fact, fireworks and other loud noises can even make it a nightmare.
