FAQ
What dark secrets do Hollywood have?
Hollywood is filled secret societies. Some are cult-like groups where members follow strict rules and rituals, while others are simply clubs for those who share common interests.
There are also other, more evil organizations that control large parts of the industry. These include companies such as the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America), which sets film ratings, and the RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America), which sets music licensing fees.
Numerous unions, guilds, and associations represent actors, writers, producers, editors, and other creative professionals. Most major movie studios and television networks are owned by large corporations which own these various organizations.
The point is that no matter how secretive any group may seem, someone somewhere knows exactly what they do. But we don't have to fear them.
Instead, we should embrace them. Because they can help us make better decisions.
They tell us what movies will likely succeed, what songs will be popular, and what books will best sell.
They help us make decisions about what we will buy, watch, listen to, or read.
We can trust their advice and we can ignore it if it contradicts our values.
They are more powerful than ever because we chose to ignore them. They become the ultimate arbiters for taste.
And if you don't like what they say, you're free to ignore them.
Let's take a closer look at some of the less-known, yet still very real Hollywood secret clubs.
And you'll understand why they're so crucial.
Have you ever wondered how much trash is produced worldwide each day?
According to the United Nations the average person creates more than 2.5 lbs of waste daily. That adds up over 25 billion kilos of garbage every year.
The majority of this garbage ends up in incinerators or landfills. But what happens when the dumpsters become full? It goes to the United States, where most of it is exported. It is then dumped in other countries, where it pollutes their ecosystems.But now, thanks to the work of one man, we know exactly where all this trash goes. His name is Mike Sexton. He runs a company called Waste Watchers.He spends his days watching the movements of trucks transporting trash across North America. He then reports back about what happens next.
Sexton says he finds his job very satisfying. "We've got a lot of fun," he told CNN. "We'll be following these big rigs through town. "Sexton started following truck driver almost 20 years back.
"I just fell in love with it," he said.
His favorite story involved a driver who pulled off at an abandoned gas station near Los Angeles. Sexton recalls, "The guy was searching for somewhere to put his loads." "He drove down the street and saw this building. So he backed up and went inside. "There were two enormous roll-off containers filled with stuff. The guy took everything out and started filling up the truck again. "Then he looked at the place and decided to unload everything. There were a bunch of old tires, rags, furniture, mattresses, boxes, bottles, cans, and whatever else. "It was just a total mess. It had been cleaned up before he arrived. There was not a single piece of trash.
So why did this happen? It's because this area used to be a recycle center. People would drive from all over the country to recycle their trash. Sexton explained, "They would bring their household goods and take them here," and they would then empty the containers.
You might see this happen hundreds of times a day. This can happen hundreds of times a week.Eventually, the truck becomes so overloaded with junk that it stops running. And eventually, the owner decides to abandon the vehicle.
Trash is not the only problem our planet faces.
The majority of these particles are made of small pieces of plastic. Others end up in rivers, oceans or the stomachss of fish.
Experts warn us that we may soon face an international food shortage if things don't change. Experts warn that if we continue to go the same way, we won't make it. However, scientists and most people aren't worried.
Is there a more mysterious place than the Earth itself?
Antarctica is one of the most mysterious places on Earth.
What is it that makes this place so interesting? Because it is unlike anything else on Earth.
It is remote, isolated, and extremely difficult to visit. But there is more to this site than meets the eye.
This natural wonder is also home to some of the strangest wildlife species.
Let's look at how this extraordinary destination became so mysterious.
Antarctica, The South Pole
Antarctica is not known by anyone. Some say it means "land on ice." Others think it comes from Greek mythology.
Antarktis is the name Antarktis was given to an island in ancient Greece by Zeus' twin brothers. One of the twins was said to have been born in winter. Hence, the word antarctic.
Others believe that the name comes from the Greek words anti meaning against and tropos meaning to turn. This would mean that the land was turned away by the sun.
Whatever the reason, Antarctica has always held a special fascination for people.
It is the highest, coldest, windiest, dryest, and most populated continent. Because it is so cold, there aren't any trees, plants or animals.
And yet, this frozen wasteland is teeming with life.
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.
What is the secret to Antarctica's unique environment? Here, water is frozen into ice rather than vaporizing into the air.
This causes large amounts of ice to float above ground.
These glaciers cover more than 80% of the continent. These glaciers are getting larger each year.
The Antarctic ice has grown 60 feet so far since 1960.
The sea level will rise up to 200 feet if melting continues. This could lead to widespread flooding.
Not everyone believes this is bad news. Global warming may be beneficial for some scientists. They suggest that rising temperatures could cause ice sheet melt faster, leading to floods that flush out toxic chemicals from soil and bodies.
Others, however, warn that this theory sounds almost like a plot for a science fiction film.
How does your brain control your body's functions?
The brain communicates with other organs to ensure their cooperation. Your body's functions are controlled by your 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. Neurons communicate with each other by sending electrical signals called action potentials on axons. Each neuron has a cell membrane surrounding its nucleus. The membrane contains channels that allow ions like sodium and potassium to enter the cell and leave it. The neuron fires when there is ion movement.
Neurotransmitters, chemical substances that are released when a neuron fires. Neurotransmitters are able to bind to receptors in the second neuron. This opens ion channels that allow ions to flow in and out. As a result, second neuron fires as well.
Neurotransmitter releases occur when a presynaptic neurons receives an input from another neuron. An impulse travels along a synapse that connects the two neurons. The transmitter binds to the receptors on the postsynaptic neural cell, which triggers the firing of that neuron.
For communication within the nervous systems, neurotransmitters are essential. They also coordinate activity between different brain parts.

American history is full of secret societies and clubs
The secret societies and clubs in American History are fascinating for many reasons. The mystery surrounding them is one reason. Another reason is their influence on our society.
Secret societies and clubs have been used throughout America’s history in order to promote ideas that might otherwise be considered taboo. Anti-Semitism is one example of such ideas. These groups also spread ideologies like communism and socialists.
The Ku Klux Klan is the most prominent American organization. This group was formed after the Civil War ended in 1865. Its purpose was protect white men against African Americans.
Other organizations created during this period included the Knights Templar, Freemasons, and Odd Fellows. These organizations shared the same beliefs and goals.
