A Japanese Commercial So Scary They Put A Health Warning On it [Video] Posted: 05 Dec 2013 02:18 PM PST In case you couldn't see the the tiny font in the picture, it says "Not for the faint of heart." You don't need to tell me twice, I'm not watching. But you can:

This Girl Has the Weirdest Habit Ever Posted: 05 Dec 2013 02:06 PM PST People have some strange habits in the world but Rebecca Brown has one that she cannot control and it will definitely surprise you. In times of stress, Rebecca literally pulls out her hair. This strange trait is called Trichotillomania and for Rebecca it has been so bad that she has even shaved her head to disguise how bald she has made herself or worn wigs to cover the bald spots.

Beauty Pageant in Russian Prison Posted: 05 Dec 2013 10:03 AM PST Eleven contestants chosen from over 1220 convicts across ten penitentiaries in the Primorsky territory participated in the beauty contest.

Seth's Blog : A legacy of Mandela

 

A legacy of Mandela

Others can better write about Nelson Mandela's impact on the world stage, on how he stood up for the dignity of all people and on how he changed our world.

For those that seek to make a change in the world, whether global or local, one lesson of his life is this:

You can.

You can make a difference.

You can stand up to insurmountable forces.

You can put up with far more than you think you can.

Your lever is far longer than you imagine it is, if you choose to use it.

If you don't require the journey to be easy or comfortable or safe, you can change the world.
