The Hill of Crosses
05 feb 2013 03:57
It sounds like a cheap Hollywood horror movie, but Hill of Crosses is a real place - a site of pilgrimage actually – located about 12 km north of the city of Siauliai, in northern Lithuania. Standing upon a small hill are many hundreds of thousands of crosses that represent Christian devotion and a memorial to Lithuanian national identity. The precise origin of the practice of leaving crosses on the hill is uncertain, but it is believed that the first crosses were placed on the former Jurgaičiai or Domantai hill fort after the 1831 Uprising. Over the centuries, not only crosses, but giant crucifixes, carvings of Lithuanian patriots, statues of the Virgin Mary and thousands of tiny effigies and rosaries have been brought here by Catholic pilgrims. It is estimated that there are over 100,000 crosses on the hill.

The face of Richard III
05 feb 2013 03:48
This is the face of Richard III, reconstructed from the skull found beneath a social services car park that was yesterday confirmed as that of the last Plantagenet king. The facial reconstruction is to be released following the confirmation that the skeleton unearthed in Leicester was that of the king killed in battle more than 500 years ago. The image is based on a CT scan taken by experts at the University of Leicester, who discovered the king's skeleton with the help of the Richard III Society during an archaeological dig last September.

Tracy Morgan is Mio (un)Fit In Hilarious Super Bowl Commercial
04 feb 2013 18:49
Mio Fit’s Super Bowl commercial features Tracy Morgan advocating the American knack for change, a move that effectively makes the whole situation absurd. Also, we find Tracy to be an interesting choice–since it is in fact a “sports” drink, maybe they should’ve made some kind of nod towards athleticism other than stuffing the former Tracy Jordan into a tracksuit. Still, if the point is that other sports drinks are boring, perhaps they’ve made the right choice. We for one would love to see Tracy Morgan endorse more products now that ’30 Rock’ has wrapped up. Maybe he could film one of those “Drink Responsibly” ads while wearing his Tracy Jordan ankle bracelet? Or join Jane Krakowski in those Tropicana ads. We want a ’30 Rock’ reunion, is what we’re saying.

Canada's Magical Ice Hotel Inspired by Jules Verne
04 feb 2013 10:06

Canada's Hôtel de Glace, the unique ice hotel, is back this season for its 13th annual reconstruction. The magical castle-like lodge is built each year with a new themed design out of hundred of thousands of tons of ice and snow. We got a glimpse of last year's wondrous icy architecture featuring elaborate carvings inspired by nature, but this year's construct appears to focus far more on the beauty of the wintery season as explored through its "A Journey to the Center of Winter" theme, inspired by Jules Verne's Journey to the Center of the Earth.

Furry nails and a couple of other nail trends

An explosion of fake fur has hit the High Street - hoods, bags and winter boots - and now you can get it on your nails, too. MUA Makeup Academy has just launched a fur-effect nail product in five colours, each £3, which when sprinkled over wet polish makes them look soft and fluffy to touch. 'Whether you are going for a fun feel or a luxury look, these textured nails are perfect,' says the marketing spiel. The website shows fingernails that look wrapped in velvet - or if you're more cynical, fuzzy felt.

Beautiful Basalt Cliffs of Los Organos, Spain
04 feb 2013 08:29

Los Organos is located in the island of La Gomera in the northern coast of Peru, about 15 minutes away from Mancora. These spectacular rock formations are considered to be one of the most beautiful basalt formations on the Canary Islands. The slender cliffs rise up out of the sea to a height of 800 metres and a width of 200m. The pillars look very similar to organ pipes, and hence the name Los Organos. These are the remains of vast lava masses of a once powerful volcano. As the lava cooled down it crystalized into these hexagonal looking pillars. Over time, erosion exposed the rocks, forming them to a natural work of art. Because the cliffs drop steeply into the sea, the only way to see Los Organos in all their might, is by taking a boat tour.

The Grand Rail Road, Abandoned

The reputation of the rail road is all of the place. Once for the wealthy, going on long journeys to visit family, have a vacation, or do business, the train was an iconic image of power and glamour. 

Later, during war times, trains were used to transport everything from weapons to slaves. 

Now there are many abandoned rail roads around the world. It's as if people have stopped appreciating the simple things in life. What world great will we forget next?
