City officials didn’t know the capsule was due to be opened until a local historian came across the 1959 newspaper article a few weeks earlier....

This helps them avoid being seen from above and below by matching their bodies with the darkness of the deep and the light from the surface. The great white shark is a good example, and even military planes are built to follow this camouflage coloration....

The name Rainn Wilson may not sound familiar to the average person, but the character of Dwight Schrute from NBC’s The Office sure will. Before Dwight was brute forcing us with his tremendous comedic abilities in an office setting, he was playing as Lahnk, the Requisition Officer in Galaxy Quest. You can catch him the most in the first quarter of the film or so.

As one of the original apostles of Jesus, and one of the greatest purveyors of Christianity at the time, the apostle Simon Peter became the ire of Emperor Nero of Rome who despised Christians (going so far as to blame them for the Great Fire of Rome earlier in the year 64AD).

If you’ve never heard of an “AIDS village” before, that’s because, up until now, no book on China’s rampant AIDS pandemic has ever been published. Yan Lianke exposes how hundreds of thousands of impoverished Chinese peasants across the country have been infected with HIV by corrupt “blood kingpins”, while selling their blood for cash.

In the first century AD St Peter was buried in that spot after his crucifixion. Because of his importance as first pope the place was remembered and revered by the early Christians.

Stiger’s hail cannon became a hit after the region he tested it in suffered no hail for two consecutive years....
