Good Morning To Everybody
18 dec 2012 07:40
In England and Ireland there was a profession that was called Knocker-up or Knocker-upper. Those were specially trained people who woke everybody up for work, instead of an alarm clock. She was originated in the time of the Industrial Revolution and existed until the 20's of the 20th century. This position was occupied mostly by elderly people, but for an additional fee the work was entrusted to the local constable.

Another Hobbit House
18 dec 2012 07:35
It has all the features of a proper hobbit house – rustic craftsmanship, country charm, and the famous circular doors with the knob squarely in the middle. But this real-life house is worlds away from the Shire, and isn’t even in Middle Earth. Instead, the stone cottage is nestled into Chester County, surprisingly near Philadelphia, in Pennsylvania.

Interesting Russian Development
18 dec 2012 07:33
This is a unique development of Russian scientists for the army of the country. A new assault bulletproof shield was called “Zabor” (“Fence”) which could be probably also listed in this post of today. This powerful shield has a 5-class protection and can stop bullets of AKM, SVD, and even fragments of grenades, however it is rather heavy – 50 kilograms (110 lb).

Art. No one can explain it. Would you like an explanation on these pieces? Take some drugs and then figure it out yourself [just kidding, don't take drugs]. Other artists figured it would be a cool idea to see these artists' innards. Hmm. Yeah, I don't even know bro.

The Fascinating Hyena Men Of Nigeria By Photographer Pieter Hugo
17 dec 2012 14:34
The locals of Nigeria know these men as Gadawan Kura (rough translation: ‘hyena handlers/guides’) but portrayed by Nigerian press as little more than a group of shady body guards, bank robbers, drug dealers and debt collectors – there has always been a tangible sense of myth and mystery surrounding the existence of “the hyena men of Nigeria”. Their origin is a mystery, and so is what they do to tame these hyenas. Their lifestyle is quite unique. Anyone want to tame Hyenas as a hobbie?
