FAQ
Is there a more mysterious place than the Earth itself?
Antarctica is home to the most mysterious and remote place on Earth.
This is why we find it so captivating. It is unlike any other place on Earth.
It is remote and difficult to reach. But there is more to this site than meets the eye.
Some of the most bizarre wildlife species can also be found in this natural wonder.
Let's now see how this amazing destination came to be so well-known for its mystery.
Antarctica: The South Pole
Antarctica is named for no one. Some believe it refers to "land of ice". Others believe it comes from Greek mythology.
In ancient Greece, Antarktis was the name given to the island where Zeus' twin brothers were born. One of the twins was said to have been born in winter. Hence, the word antarctic.
Others believe that the name is a combination of the Greek words anti and tropos which mean against and turn. This would mean that the land was turned away by the sun.
No matter the reason, Antarctica is a place that has always fascinated people.
It is the highest, coldest, windiest, dryest, and most populated continent. Because it is too frigid, there are no trees, animals, or plants.
Yet, life is abundant in this frozen wilderness.
It is home to approximately 90 percent of all life on Earth. It is home to approximately half of all world's animal and plant species.
And what makes Antarctica such a unique environment? Here water freezes to ice and not evaporates into the atmosphere.
This causes large ice masses to rise above the ground.
These glaciers cover more than 80% of the continent. These glaciers are getting larger each year.
The Antarctic Ice Sheet has grown 60 feet in the past 60 years.
The sea level will rise up to 200 feet if melting continues. This could lead to massive flooding across the globe.
This does not mean that everyone is wrong. Some scientists think global warming might be beneficial. They believe that global warming will lead to melting ice sheets faster and floods that can flush toxic chemicals out of our soils and bodies.
But others warn that this theory sounds like a plot from a science fiction movie.

Why do actors end up on the blacklist?
When you're an actor, there's more rejection than when you're a writer. As an actor, it's likely that you will be rejected a lot. But it doesn't matter because eventually, you'll find someone who loves you.
Actors are usually very talented, meaning they can make a living almost anywhere. Most actors don't care about making money. Actors love to act and tell stories. It's likely that you will be acting if your passion is acting.
Even worse, you might be told you are too young or too old to play the part. You may also be rejected from a movie audition. It happens all too often.
However, once you have been cast, it is possible to face criticism. People will tell you that you look terrible or shouldn't be wearing makeup. If you're lucky, you won't even hear negative comments.
Sometimes it's because you play a character that's not realistic or authentic. Perhaps you play a homosexual man and everyone thinks that you're straight. Perhaps you play a woman that is supposed to be strong but who cries a lot.
Maybe you are asked to change your vocal chords. Sometimes they ask you to sound like a guy or a girl. They usually want you sound better.
Negative criticisms are best ignored. Actors feel like they've failed when told they did wrong. They haven't done any wrong.
They were not born with the talent that would make them famous. And sometimes, no matter how hard they try, they don't fit the bill.
Blacklisting can happen for many reasons. Some people don't like actors. Others believe actors are lazy. Others think actors are lazy.
It doesn't matter what reason it may be, you won’t be banned if you keep trying. There are many jobs out there and you'll be able to find them.
Keep trying and you will eventually succeed.
What is the most secretive town in the world?
The answer to that question may shock you. It could even make you uncomfortable, because it challenges how reality is perceived and lived. But there is a reason why this place exists. And it is not what you would expect.
The City of God was its name by the ancient Greeks. It was called the City of Destruction by the Bible.
It's known in India as Kashi (Kashmir). It is also called Novgorod in Russia.
It's called The Town That Has Disappeared here in America.
A small community of 1200 people in western New York State vanished. A road sign pointing to the former location of the town was all that was left, except for a few bodies and cars.
The little village vanished, with no trace of its existence. Some say it was swallowed up by the Earth. Some claim it was destroyed by a meteorite impact. Others claim it was taken away by aliens.
Despite what may have happened, the people who lived in this once-thriving area are confident that their town will not be lost forever. They had just relocated to another town.
There's even a website that tracks the disappearances and recoveries of Zugspitz.
The question is, where did this place go? It's in Switzerland.
Zugspitze is situated on the border between Germany und Austria. A huge lake, Lake Zugspitze, is located just beyond the summit.
It has always fascinated and astonished me to see how many towns have vanished but still exist. Why do some disappear while others survive? I set out to find out.
I was interested in learning more about these mysterious towns that are disappearing. What causes a community to disappear? How can a town disappear from existence?
It turned out that there are many theories about disappearing towns. One theory suggests that a community disappears when all of its buildings are removed. Another theory says that the town just moves. Another theory suggests that the town has never existed.
No matter what theories you may have, there is no doubt that many towns across the globe were swallowed by the ground. This video examines both the history and current status.

Hollywood scandals that shocked the world
There's nothing more shocking than watching someone become famous for the wrong reasons. But, it's equally shocking to watch them fall from the graces.
The best thing about watching how an industry reacts when it makes mistakes is the best part. There are many stories about celebrities who drank excessively. Some even died young because of it.
It's worse when stars make public their problems, and then are ignored by everyone. That's where we found ourselves last week.
Heath Ledger gave up after a long career that was successful. He took too many prescription pills and died shortly after.
His family and his friends struggled with the news and the media went after him.
Heath was once thought to be one the greatest actors of all time. Two Academy Awards nominations were given to Heath for his role in Brokeback Mountain.
Heath did more than act. He also directed films including A Knight's Tale. Monster's Ball and Iron Man.
Hollywood loved Heath. But he was too big for his boots. He began using drugs and drinking heavily. He ended up in rehab and became clean.
He wanted to make amends now that he was sober. He made a documentary called "Room 237," that chronicled the making and release of The Shining. It was supposed to hit theaters this year. However, it won't until next year.
Heath tried many times to get back into Hollywood. Nothing worked. In fact, he was actually twice arrested for drug-related charges.
We're not saying Heath should have been allowed back into show business. It would have been nice for him to have received some assistance before things spiraled outof control.
We hope Heath's story warns others who might think they can still have it all.
