Amazing Peoples In Thailand
In late September and early October in
Thailand held an unusual vegetarian festival. I order to Nine Emperor
Gods give them good health and peace of mind, these people during the festival
, which lasts 9 days, must comply with many rules. These days they do
not eat meat, drink alcohol, have sex or wear white clothes, and must
maintain body
hygiene and kitchen accessories… What’s really spectacular is
sticking various objects through the face: knives, sabers, saw,
glasses, spears… Every drop of blood, and every scar is a gift for
purifying the soul. This expression of devotion and love to the Gods
during the ceremony is often a very creepy and bizarre , but always spectacular.
Base Jump From KL Tower Photography
BASE jumping, also sometimes written as B.A.S.E. jumping, is an activity where participants jump from fixed objects and use a parachute to break their fall. “BASE” is an acronym that stands for four categories of fixed objects from which one can jump: buildings, antennas, spans (bridges), and earth (cliffs).
The Kuala Lumpur Tower is a tall tower located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The KL Tower is the seventh tallest telecommunication tower in the world
(after Tokyo Sky Tree in Japan, the Guangzhou TV & Sightseeing
Tower in China, CN Tower in Canada, the Ostankino Tower in Russia, the
Oriental Pearl Tower in China, and the Borj-e Milad in Iran). Built to
enhance the quality of telecommunication services and the clarity of
broadcasting, KL Tower is a symbol of Kuala Lumpur.

1986 Guinness World Records
Ashrita Furman, an American, grew up in Queens, was born in 1954, the very time when the first Book of Guinness World Records was published. It was published only in 1000 copies.
By Christmas that year, “Guinness” became the most selling book in UK. The publishers all over the world became interested in this book, so at this moment it is being translated into more than 30 different languages. The very book became a recorder, after Bible it is the most selling book in the world.
While being a small boy, Ashrita Furman was really clumsy and he wasn’t to good in sports. All of those things have changed while he was a teenager, when he became interested in Eastern learning, especially for Indian teacher Shri Chinmoya. Suddenly he realized that if he believes in himself and his own abilities, he will be able to do all those things he, by that time, believed he is not able to do.

Top 6 Most Eligible Bachelors in the World
This is the list of the most eligible bachelors in the world. The men on the list were chosen by women from all around the world. These men are either royalty or have made their fortunes from scratch. But one thing is for sure they are all extremely handsome.
1. Prince Harry
Prince Harry is on the top of the list of most eligible bachelor. When you are a prince you don’t have to do pretty much anything to get on the top of the list.
In the summer of 2010 he split up with Chelsea Davy, the daughter of a
successful entrepreneur from South Africa. If you want to meet him, you
just might find him dancing in one of the posh clubs in London. Prince
of Wales is famous for scandals but since he bears the title of Captain
Army Air Corps no man can match him. That’s why he’s number one.
Afghanistan In 2013 Pictures
US troop withdrawal from Afghanistan began in earnest in 2011 with President Obama's announcement in June. 10,000 troops were removed by the end of summer 2011, 23,000 additional troops by the end of summer 2012, and troops continue to come home at a steady pace as Afghan security forces move to protect their own country. The mission changes from "combat" to "support." By 2014, that transition will be complete with the Afghans responsible for their own security, but US troops will remain in country. How many is unclear. In this post, we share images from February in country (and a few from January 31st.) -

Pope Benedict XVI's last general audience

Benedict meets tomorrow with cardinals for a final time before traveling to his retirement residence at Castel Gandolfo south of Rome.
National Archives Photos Ang Big Pictures
“Searching for the Seventies” takes a new look at the 1970s using remarkable color photographs taken for a Federal photography project called Project DOCUMERICA (1971-1977). Created by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), DOCUMERICA was born out of the decade’s environmental awakening, producing striking photographs of many of that era’s environmental problems and achievements. Drawing its inspiration from the depression era Farm Security Administration photography project, project photographers created a portrait of America in the early-and-mid-1970s. They documented small Midwestern towns, barrios in the Southwest, and coal mining communities in Appalachia. Their assignments were as varied as African American life in Chicago, urban renewal in Kansas City, commuters in Washington, DC, and migrant farm workers in Colorado. The exhibit, featuring 90 images from the project opens March 8, 2013 at the National Archives in Washington D.C. It runs through September 8, 2013. What follows is a small sampling of the collection digitized by the National Archives.

Girl In Hijab
A new law requiring Muslim women wearing burqas or niqabs in New South Wales to show their faces to police if required has been accepted by Islamic organisations and may be followed in other states.
The law, which extends to all forms of covering including motorcycle helmets, will give police power to establish identity by insisting faces be exposed during routine traffic operations such as licence checks and random breath tests.
It will also cover people suspected of committing a crime or who might be considered a potential security risk.
Refusal to comply would risk up to one year’s jail or a A$5500 ($6747) fine.
“I don’t care whether a person is wearing a motorcycle helmet, a burqa, niqab, face veil or anything else, the police should be allowed to require those people to make their identification clear,” NSW Premier Barry O’Farrell said.

Muslim Women Doing Protest
The Quran and Hadith shares equal rights of all men and women.
Both have the right to be educated and to have the freedom of speech,
choice and expressions. Today in the western world many people do not
think positively about Islam. The western media has portrayed the image of Muslim women very badly. They claim that Islam does not allow the right of women to be educated or to work.
They claim that in Islam, women are treated as servants, but in reality, this is all false. Extremist groups such as Al Qaeda and Taliban have created such bad image of Islamic women. When they conquered Afghanistan, Iraq and upper areas of Pakistan, they destroyed all girls’ schools, colleges and universities.
