FAQ
What is the most secretive location in the entire world?
You might be surprised at the answer. It might even make you uncomfortable because it challenges our perception of reality and how we live. But there is an explanation for why this place exists, and it's not what you would expect.
The City of God was its name by the ancient Greeks. In the Bible, it was known as the City of Destruction.
In India, it's called Kashi (Kashmir). It's known in Russia as Novgorod.
It is known as The Town That Disappeared in America.
One small community in western New York State with 1,200 residents vanished without a trace. No bodies, cars, houses, nothing was left behind except a road sign pointing to its former location.
This tiny community disappeared without leaving any clues as to where it went or when. Some believe the earth swallowed them up. Some claim it was destroyed by a meteorite impact. Others believe that aliens took it.
The residents of this once prosperous community believe that whatever happened, their town is not gone forever. They had just moved to a new town.
A website is available to track the disappearance and recovery of Zugspitz, which was lost in the Great Depression.
So where is this town? It's in Switzerland.
Zugspitze lies on the border between Austria and Germany. The lake Lake Zugspitze is just beyond the mountain's summit.
It's always fascinated me how so many towns disappear, yet others remain. What is the difference between some towns that disappear and others that survive? I set out to find out.
I wanted more information about the mysterious disappearing of towns. What causes a town to disappear? How can one place become extinct?
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 holds that the town simply relocates to another location. The third theory is that the town was never actually there.
There are many theories, but the truth is that thousands of towns around the world have been submerged by the earth. This video looks into the history of those places and investigates their current status.
What is the most mysterious location on Earth?
Antarctica is home to the most mysterious and remote place on Earth.
Why do we find this place so intriguing? Because it is unlike any place on Earth.
It is isolated, remote, and very hard to visit. This site has more to it than meets your eye.
This natural wonder is also home to some of the strangest wildlife species.
Let's find out how this mysterious destination became so famous.
Antarctica: The South Pole
Antarctica is not known by anyone. Some say it means "land on ice." Others believe it comes out of Greek mythology.
In ancient Greece, Antarktis was the name given to the island where Zeus' twin brothers were born. According to legend, one of the twins was born in winter. Thus, the term antarctic.
Others believe the name was derived from the Greek words tropos, which means turn, and anti, meaning against. This would mean that the land was turned away by the sun.
Whatever the reason Antarctica holds a special fascination, people have always loved it.
It is also the lowest, windiest continent, driest, and highest. It is too cold to support trees, plants, and animals.
Yet, the frozen desert is alive with life.
About 90 percent of all living things on Earth live here. About 50% of the world's plant and animal species can be found here.
What is it that makes Antarctica so unique? Here, water freezes in ice rather that vaporizing into the atmosphere.
This causes large masses to form of ice which float high above the ground.
These floating glaciers make up 80%. These glaciers are getting larger each year.
So far, the Antarctic ice sheet has grown 60 feet since 1960.
The sea level will rise up to 200 feet if melting continues. This could lead to massive flooding across the globe.
However, not all scientists believe this to be bad news. Some scientists claim that global warming could be good for us. According to scientists, global warming could be good for us because the melting of the ice sheets will accelerate, which can lead to floods that release toxic chemicals into our soil and bodies.
Others, however, warn that this theory sounds almost like a plot for a science fiction film.
How does the brain regulate the functions of the body?
To ensure that other organs and muscle functions work together, the brain sends messages. Everything that happens within your body is controlled by the brain. It tells the stomach to digest food, and the lungs to breath air. It also tells your legs and arms to move.
Your brain consists of billions of nerve cells connected in groups called neurons. Action potentials are electrical signals that neurons send to one another. Each neuron is covered by a cell membrane. Inside the membrane are channels that allow ions such as sodium and potassium to enter and leave the cell. Ion movement creates the electric charge that causes the neuron to fire.
When a neuron fires, chemicals called neurotransmitters are released into the space between the neuron and the next neuron. Neurotransmitters attach to the receptors of the second neuron and open ions channels for ions to pass in and out. In turn, the second neuron also fires.
Neurotransmitter production occurs when a neuron in the presynaptic receives an impulsive signal from another. An impulse travels along a synaptic link between the two neuron. The transmitter binds to receptors on the postsynaptic neuron, triggering the firing of the postsynaptic neuron.
Communication within the nervous system is possible thanks to neurotransmitters. They also help coordinate activity between different parts of the brain.
Why do actors end up on the blacklist?
An actor is more likely to get rejected than a writer. As an actor, it's likely that you will be rejected a lot. You will find someone who loves and accepts you eventually.
Actors are typically very talented and can earn a living virtually anywhere. Most actors don't care about making money. Actors love to act and tell stories. If you are an actor, you will most likely put yourself out there.
It is possible to be told that you are not suitable for the role, or that you are too old or too young. Or, you could lose out on a role in a movie. That happens a lot.
After you've been cast, there may be 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 you'll be criticized because you're playing a character that isn't realistic or authentic. You could be a gay actor and everyone assumes you are 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 either a boy or a girl. Most times, though, they want you to sound better.
These criticisms should be ignored. Actors sometimes feel like failures when they hear they were wrong. The truth is they haven’t done anything wrong.
They didn't have the talent to make them famous. They may not fit the bill sometimes, no mater how hard they try.
There are many reasons an actor might be blacklisted. Some people don't like actors. Others think actors can be lazy. Some actors may be cheaters.
Whatever your reason, it doesn't matter. You won't get blacklisted for trying. There are plenty of jobs available and you'll find them.
You'll succeed as long as you keep trying.
