buwamosadi:

"The killing of 17 victims in 3 despicable terrorist acts this week prompted a unity march of 1.5 million people including 40 world leaders in Paris. Well done.

Maybe it’s just me but did anyone else hear about Nigeria? 2000 civilians including women and children were massacred by terrorists this week.

Can somebody tell me why nobody is marching for those victims? Any world leaders planning a trip to Lagos or Abuja this week? Too busy? Bad flight connections?

Just asking. Imagine the statement we could make.”

Boris Kodjoe

fucking awesome

Fooled you

This is so cool

Oh shit thats how they took Lt. Dan’s legs away?!?!?!

I literally just watched Forrest Gump and was wondering how they did it because I thought the movie was too damn old for special FX so some weird reason

Image composting they have a picture with him in the wheel chair and one with him not in it so they can layer one atop the other. they do the same with extras legs and anything that woudl be obscured by his real legs.

The reason why the room was pink was because on black and white film, hues of red become dark shades of black. Pink is the perfect balance to give it that dark creepy grey.

Jan. 12, 1986 Early Morning Space Shuttle Launch

By: vivian on segunda-feira, janeiro 12, 2015

On Jan. 12, 1986, the space shuttle Columbia launched at 6:55 a.m. EST from Kennedy Space Center on the STS-61C mission. It was the first spaceflight for now-NASA Administrator Charles F. Bolden, who was a Pilot on the STS-61C crew along with Mission Commander Robert L. Gibson, Mission Specialists Franklin R. Chang-Diaz, Steven A. Hawley and George D. Nelson and Payload Specialists Robert J. Cenker of RCA and U.S. Rep. (now Senator) Bill Nelson. During the six-day flight, crew members deployed the SATCOM KU satellite and conducted experiments in astrophysics and materials processing. The mission was accomplished in 96 orbits of Earth, ending with a successful night landing at Edwards Air Force Base, California, on Jan. 18, 1986. Image Credit: NASA

Cataclysmic Dawn

By: vivian on segunda-feira, janeiro 12, 2015

Will this dawn bring another nova? Such dilemmas might be pondered one day by future humans living on a planet orbiting a cataclysmic variable binary star system. Cataclysmic variables involve gas falling from a large star onto an accretion disk surrounding a massive but compact white dwarf star. Explosive cataclysmic events such as a dwarf nova can occur when a clump of gas in the interior of the accretion disk heats up past a certain temperature. At that point, the clump will fall more quickly onto the white dwarf and land with a bright flash. Such dwarf novas will not destroy either star, and may occur irregularly on time scales from a few days to tens of years. Although a nova is much less energetic than a supernova, if recurrent novas are not violent enough to expel more gas than is falling in, mass will accumulate onto the white dwarf star until it passes its Chandrasekhar limit. At that point, a foreground cave may provide little protection, as the entire white dwarf star will explode in a tremendous supernova.

King Bayinnaung (1516 - 1581)





One of Bayinnaung's most lasting legacies - the spectacular Kanbawzathadi Palace which he had built in 1556 and has since been destroyed and reconstructed

January 12th 1554: King Bayinnaung crowned



On this day in 1554, Bayinnaung was crowned King of Burma in his capital of Pegu (now known as Bago). He came to the Burmese throne at a turbulent time, and had to battle other contenders to the throne after the assassination of his brother-in-law King Tabinshwehti in 1551. After Bayinnaung took power he continued the work of his predecessor to unify Burma. The King first conquered the Shan-dominated regions of the country, then attacked his most powerful enemy, Siam (modern-day Thailand). After Bayinnaung’s brutal and prolonged campaign against the Siamese, Burma took control of the country. The Burmese were eventually expelled from Siam after fifteen years of domination. Bayinnaung is best remembered for his military campaigns, which enabled him to assemble the largest empire in Southeast Asian history. However, on the domestic front he was also heavily involved in promoting Buddhism in Burma. The King died on October 10th 1581, aged 65, and was succeeded by his eldest son Nanda, and it was under his rule that his father’s vast Toungoo Empire fell apart.
