FAQ
What is one of the most amazing facts about the human body
Two eyes, two ears and two nostrils are part of our bodies. We also have four limbs: a mouth, nose, penis, and four limbs. You're correct, there are more than 50 parts in our bodies. But, one thing is missing. A heart.
A heart is a pump that circulates blood throughout the body. The blood flows through the veins and arteries to carry oxygen and nutrients to the cells.
The heart pumps out approximately 5 liters of blood per minute. This is equivalent to an adult consuming 2-3 cups of coffee per day.
Blood flows through the heart 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Your heart beats nearly 100 times a minute while sleeping.
Because of the color and texture of their skin, you can tell if someone is healthy or sick. If you examine the skin closely, you will see tiny blood vessels called capillaries. These small vessels carry blood from the large blood vessel in the skin back towards the heart. The skin turns purple or blue when there is a blockage in blood flow.
Red blood cells are missing in people with sickle-cell disease. Patients with sickle cell disease have their blood become sticky and harden, leading to severe illness.
Bandages are used to stop bleeding after you have cut yourself. For the wound to heal properly, blood must continue to flow. Doctors will insert a needle under the skin to access the vein near the injury. This allows the blood to drain from the injured area.
A doctor can also insert tubes (catheters), into an artery in the vicinity of where blood clots form. This keeps patients alive until the clot has broken up naturally.
Is there a Hollywood blacklist.
There is an Hollywood blacklist.
But, the list has not been made public. As far as we are aware, the names are not even known. It matters because of this.
The reason behind the secrecy was that blacklisted directors and actors wouldn't be able find work. Thus, they would leave the industry and studios will lose money. Which means they'd cut back on spending money on movies. That would reduce the opportunities for blacklisted filmmakers. This would make them bankrupt.
This could eventually lead to more victims.
When someone tries making an Oscar winning movie they might be asked for a contract. This means that they can't publicly criticize their employer. Any director or producer who would like to be nominated for an award is subject to the same rules.
This is why you'll hear about directors being pressured by producers to take scenes out of their films. Directors may threaten to quit projects that don’t align with their vision.
This is why Hollywood has a blacklist. Negative comments about your employer will most likely lead to you being unemployed. And that's not good for anyone.
It is not uncommon for people to be falsely accused. These people have had to fight to clear their names.
We must stop this from happening again. Everyone should have the right to speak freely.
Therefore, it is necessary to eliminate the Hollywood blacklist.
What is the most secretive town in the world?
The answer to that question may shock you. It may even make it uncomfortable, as it challenges our perceptions of reality and our lives. 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 is called Kashi (Kashmir in India). It is called Novgorod (Russia).
It's called The Town That Has Disappeared here in America.
One small New York State town with just 1,200 people vanished. With the exception of a road marker pointing to its former site, there were no remains: cars, bodies, houses.
This tiny town vanished without any trace. Some say it was swallowed up by the Earth. Others claim a meteorite strike destroyed it. 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.
Even a website exists to help track down the disappearances of the lost city Zugspitz.
Then, where is it? It's actually in Switzerland!
You can find Zugspitze at the border of Austria and Germany. A huge lake, Lake Zugspitze, is located just beyond the summit.
It has always fascinated me that so many towns have disappeared, yet some still remain. Why do some disappear while others survive? I set out to find out.
I wanted to know more about the mysterious disappearing towns. What causes a town to disappear? How does one place go extinct?
It turned out that there are many theories about disappearing towns. One theory says that a town disappears when all the buildings are demolished. Another theory is that the town moves to another place. A third theory holds that the town did not exist.
The fact is that hundreds of towns all over the world have been swept away by the ground, despite theories to the contrary. This video examines the history and current status of these places.
What dark secrets do Hollywood have?
Hollywood is full secret societies. There are many secret societies in Hollywood. Some are cult-like, where members adhere to strict rules and rituals. Others are clubs for people who share similar interests.
Some of the most powerful organizations in the industry are even more dangerous. There are companies like the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America), who sets film ratings and the RIAA, which sets music licensing fees.
Many unions and guilds represent actors, directors writers, producers, and others. These large corporations control the majority of major film studios and television networks.
It doesn't matter how secretive a group might seem, someone somewhere knows what they are doing. We shouldn't fear these people.
Instead, we should embrace them. Because they give us information that allows us to make better decisions.
They also tell us about the movies that are most likely to succeed and which songs are most popular.
They allow us to make informed decisions about what we buy, watch and listen to.
We can trust them and can disregard their advice if it is not in line with our preferences.
And because we've chosen to ignore them, they become even more powerful. They are the ultimate arbiters and judges of taste.
And if you don't like what they say, you're free to ignore them.
So now let's look at some of the lesser-known but still very real Hollywood secret societies.
Observe why they are important.
