Parkour Dog

Posted: 04 May 2011 01:26 PM PDT

Parkour, also known as free-walking, is damn impressive to watch when done right. Videos on YouTube get tens of millions of views as free-walkers bravely leap between rooftops, over fences, along walls or up trees—anywhere two feet and a firm grip can get you. The goal is to get from one point to another in the most elegant way possible, even if that second point is 20 feet up a building facade, or blocked by errant construction materials.

Well, free-walking is not just for humans anymore. Meet Tret, the parkour dog. He is better at Parkour than most people. Watch him climb trees, do trick jumps, and leap from building to building like it's an average day at the park. Two extra feet are a big asset it seems. That is one well trained animal.








Modern Celebrities in the Renaissance Era

Posted: 04 May 2011 12:37 PM PDT

The Renaissance, is a cultural movement that spanned roughly the 14th to the 17th century, beginning in Florence in the Late Middle Ages and later spreading to the rest of Europe. The term is also used more loosely to refer to the historic era, but since the changes of the Renaissance were not uniform across Europe, this is a general use of the term. As a cultural movement, it encompassed a resurgence of learning based on classical sources, the development of linear perspective in painting, and gradual but widespread educational reform. Traditionally, this intellectual transformation has resulted in the Renaissance being viewed as a bridge between the Middle Ages and the Modern era. Although the Renaissance saw revolutions in many intellectual pursuits, as well as social and political upheaval, it is perhaps best known for its artistic developments and the contributions of such polymaths as Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, who inspired the term "Renaissance man.
