A Ritual Where Their Deads are Raised From Their Graves- Indonesia

by

Most of us,when our love ones die, they are laid to rest forever.But in Indonesia the dead gets many chances to see their families again

Ma'nene-its a ritual where the corpses get cleaned-families raises their dead relatives from their graves,dress them in new clothes,fix their hair and repair their coffins. They they walk the dead around the province so they can observe the living.Reports say that the Ma'nene ritual is more important than marriage and birth in Toraja culture.

Deceased loved ones are walked in straight lines around the region.


Maybe for us we find this practice so disrespectful and even unsanitary. But there’s something solemnly beautiful about families that continue to care for those they love even after their deaths.

A man brushes the hair of a dead relative, perhaps his mother or grandmother.

What you guys can say something about this?

Discipline your misbehaving child with a Killer Clown

by

Parents in Naples, Florida, can no rely on a new tool to teach their misbehaving children a lesson – a creepy 65-year-old clown called Wrinkles.


Sporting a scary clown mask, a polka dot onesie and black rubber gloves, Wrinkles is definitely an unnerving sight, which is exactly what he is going for and what makes him so popular. In the few years since he adopted this creepy persona, the 65-year-old man hiding behind the gloomy mask has carved out a niche for himself, either attending birthdays, bar mitzvahs, funerals or whatever kind of events that require the presence of a spooky clown with hollowed out black eyes. And business is good, as Wrinkles told local reporters that he is booked through January.


One of Wrinkles’ latest endeavors involves scaring misbehaving children out of their minds. He was recently hired by a mother to teach her trouble-making 12-year-old son a lesson. “He was scared of clowns and I showed up across the street from him at the bus stop and he just started crying in front of his friends and ran home,” the creepy-looking character said. “His mother called back a few days later and said ‘Thank you!’ Now when he acts bad, she just has to ask him: ‘Do you want Wrinkles to come back?’ 



Although he prefers to keep his real identity a secret, Wrinkles told the Palm Beach Post that he is a 65-year-old Rhode Island native and army veteran who moved to Florida to enjoy a more relaxed life far away from the harsh New England winters. But he soon realized that playing golf and hanging around at country clubs like most of Florida pensioners wasn’t his cup of tea, so he came up with an original idea to keep himself busy. So he ordered a clown mask online, created some business cards and stickers advertising his phone number and started playing the creepy clown for anyone requiring his services.


As time went by, his popularity grew to the point where he now gets hundreds of phone calls every day, although he admits some requests are too much, even for him. Wrinkles said he has received requests from people to help them dump a body and other explicit requests to engage in lurid behavior, but he always turns them down, preferring instead to stand quietly in the corner at bar mitzvahs and birthday parties, or freaking people out on the street, for a fee, of course.



“It’s fun,” he said. “You get to be someone else. You get some people who are petrified and some people who want you to come home with them.

As you might have guessed, Wrinkles isn’t particularly fond of kids and entertaining them with the old balloon animal tricks. He’s old-school. “I’m just a good old-fashioned clown,” he said. “When I was a kid, it was okay to scare kids and now they’re all whiny and scared. I want to bring scary back.”

Fish Poured Like Rain In Thailand-''Apocalypse Is Near''

by

Photographs show the streets of Thailand after a heavy rain deposited fish on them.


In April 2015, a series of photographs showing hundreds of dead fish on a street in China began circulating the Internet. Although the pictures were initially shared along with a news report involving a fish truck accident, subsequent reports claimed that the scene depicted in the images was the result of a heavy fish rain. 

Some media outlets tried to give a scientific explanation for the fish rain, claiming that "Monsoon winds lifted the fish from the river and the Indian and Pacific ocean," while others used the photos to prove that the apocalypse was near: 





This story may sound like it was created by one of the many online satirical publications, but two of the first web sites to share the "Raining Fish" story — Spy Ghana and SA Breaking News — claim that they only aggregate real news stories. Although this confusion may have not resulted from a deliberate attempt to fool the Internet, something was clearly lost in translation.

The photographs were first published by The People's Daily on 17 March 2015 along with a story about a truck spill in the Guizhou province of the People's Republic of China:

Solve This Millionaire's Riddle To Get His Hidden Treasure

by
Solve This Millionaire's Riddle, And You'll Be On Your Way To Finding His Hidden Treasure

"I give you title to the gold."


New Mexico millionaire and art collector Forrest Fenn has quite the ploy to get people off the couch and out in the world, building human connections.

And it involves gold. A LOT of gold.




Fenn, 84, has apparently hidden an estimated $2 million worth of treasure in a chest believed to be somewhere in the Rocky Mountains.

The cache contains "mostly American eagles and double eagles, hundreds of gold nuggets, some as large as chicken eggs, ancient Chinese carved jade figures, Pre-Columbian gold animal artifacts, lots of rubies, emeralds, sapphires, and diamonds and other things," according to his interview with ABC.






















The former Vietnam pilot came up with the treasure hunt when he was diagnosed with terminal kidney cancer in 1988, according to Canadian publication The National Post.
In order to find the hidden cache, buried five years ago in an unknown location, one must read Fenn's memoir "The Thrill Of The Chase."

The book contains a poem with exactly nine clues to help you get started
.
"As I have gone alone in there
And with my treasures bold,
I can keep my secret where,
And hint of riches new and old.

Begin it where warm waters halt
And take it in the canyon down,
Not far, but too far to walk.
Put in below the home of Brown.

From there it's no place for the meek,
The end is ever drawing nigh;
There'll be no paddle up your creek,
Just heavy loads and water high.

If you've been wise and found the blaze,
Look quickly down, your quest to cease,
But tarry scant with marvel gaze,
Just take the chest and go in peace.

So why is it that I must go
And leave my trove for all to seek?
The answers I already know,
I've done it tired, and now I'm weak.

So hear me all and listen good,
Your effort will be worth the cold.
If you are brave and in the wood
I give you title to the gold."


The rest? It's up to you.

Fenn has said people have come within 200 feet of the chest. We're confident you'll get even closer. Happy hunting!

Beardless Jesus Discovered in Spain

by

Archaeologists in Spain say they have found one of the world’s earliest recognized images of Jesus. It’s engraved on a glass dish dating back toward 4th Century AD, reports from Spain say.

The plate is known having been always hold Eucharistic breads as it was consecrated at the beginning of Christian rituals. It measures 22 cm in diameter and fragments from it had been unearthed outside of the south Spanish city of Linares, ABC newsprint reports.

Scientists employed by the FORVM MMX project discovered it inside a building utilized for spiritual worship in what continues to be of ancient city of Castulo. The find made experts “review the chronology of very early Christianity in Spain”, FORVM MMX project manager Marcelo Castro informed El Mundo newsprint.

The pieces were in an excellent state of preservation – 81per cent of the initial location has been pieced collectively by researchers




into the picture, Jesus Christ is flanked by two apostles, believed to be Peter and Paul. “The scene happens when you look at the celestial orb, framed between two hand woods, which in Christian iconography express immortality, the afterlife and heaven, on top of other things,” ABC writes.



El Mundo notes that Christ appears different from later depictions: he’s got no beard, his tresses just isn’t too-long and then he is using a philosopher’s toga.

by

Will this boy get punished for coming back to Jesus?

A Pennsylvania teenaged could approach to 2 years behind bars for allegedly taking a photograph of himself simulating sexual perversion with a sculpture of Christ, Kron four reports.

So let’s say associate degree adult (subject to harsher penalties than minors) electoral to paint“Jesus loves dicks” on the aspect of this boy’s college. That guy, at the most (and the “at most” comes in to play for individuals with previous criminal records, that this boy doesn’t have), would serve a year in jail – and that’s forward the value of getting the wall re-painted exceeds $150, otherwise the penalty would be less.

But a fourteen year-old will one thing stupid that causes virtually zero property harm and hemight face 2 years in juvenile jail as a result of it’s a “venerated object”? That’s insane. That’sextremely ludicrous.



The teen's original Facebook post garnered 124 Facebook comments, starting from “Amazing” and “this is heaven” to “this is repulsive, though you don’t believe you may a minimum of have respect for UN agency|those that|people who} do and people who area unit attending to Heaven…you discusting [sic], disturbed, disrespectful very little punk ass bitch.”

A exponent for Love within the Name of Christ told Raw Story that the ministry failed to raisepolice to press charges.

Time Traveler Found In Old Film With MacBook Air.

22 Year Old Hides Dead Infant Under Bed Hoping He Will Come Back To Life

by


22 Year Old Hides Dead Infant Under Bed Hoping He Will Come Back To Life. A heartless mother in New Bedford, Massachusetts gave birth to a baby boy, then put him in a box under the bed, hoping he would come back to life. Tamlyn Gonzalez, 22, said she gave birth to the infant boy and he got stuck in the birth canal. At the same time she said she saw the umbilical cord wrapped tightly around his neck. However, she did not admit to this when first questioned by police. Gonzalez lied several times to police and acted shocked and appalled that they found a dead baby under her porch.

It was after the dead baby began to leave a foul stench in the home, Gonzalez moved it outside under the staircase. It was when the grandmother complained of a foul stench, the box with the dead baby was found. She said she placed the baby she birthed alone at home in an old shoebox at first under her own bed and later under the staircase outside so that the baby could have “A chance to come back to life.” Apparently the 22-year-old baby killer his her pregnancy from everyone. It was confirmed that the baby did die from umbilical cord strangulation complications, but is undetermined whether the child may have survived if a doctor had been present.



Even though she did not physically kill the baby, it is her fault the baby died by not having a doctor present or having prenatal care. Even if the baby did survive, who knows what somebody in her mental condition would have done to that child. Obviously she was not excited about his arrival, as she hid the baby her entire pregnancy. Gonzalez has been officially taken into custody. She was put on probation monitoring, ordered to take prescription medications and mental health counseling. She was then released to an adult probation supervisor for continued checkups. Gonzalez faces 10 years in prison.

Human Meat Found In McDonald’s Meat Factory

by


Human Meat Found In McDonald’s Meat Factory. McDonald’s history is not a good one, and fast food restaurants already are known to have a lot of mystery ingredients, but this tops the list. 


Previously we brought you a report that detailed disturbing audio admissions by a man that claimed McDonald’s uses human meat as a filler in their 100% beef hamburgers and the fact that McDonald’s has been accused of using worm meat fillers. Now, inspectors have allegedly found human meat and horse meat in the freezer’s of an Oklahoma City McDonald’s meat factory. Human meat was also recovered in several trucks that were on their way to deliver the patties to the fast food restaurants. 

According to various reports, authorities have inspected factories and restaurants across the country and have found human meat in 90% of the locations. Horse meat was found in 65% of the locations. FBI agent Lloyd Harrison told Huzler reporters, “The worst part is that it’s not only human meat, it’s child meat. The body parts were found across the US factories and were deemed too small to be adult body parts. This is truly horrible”. 



Cannibalism has gone back tens of thousands of years and is still present today. In 2013 a North Korean man was executed for killing his children for food. Today there are a few tribes that still believe in eating human flesh as a cultural practice. Here in America, people have obsessed about eating human meat such as Jeffrey Dahmer and Albert Fish. We have labeled them mentally ill. To be in denial that this type of thing does not happen, would be foolish. 
McDonalds Using Human Meat Hoax
Now the customers of McDonald’s fast food restaurants want answers! How long have they been using this human meat? Where did they get the children from? Were they already dead when brought into the factories? Authorities hope to have all of these questions answered as they thoroughly investigate all facilities. Get healthy fast by avoiding these fast food restaurants all together!

Boy Had 232 Teeth Removed From His Mouth

by

In a rare medical case, a team of doctors at state-run JJ hospital extracted as many as 232 tiny teeth from a 17-year-old boy’s mouth in a six-hour long surgery conducted on Monday. Interestingly, doctors claim that the total count of minuscule teeth was far greater than 232, after which they gave up on counting and focussed only on removing them.

Aashiq Gawai, a tenth standard boy from a remote village called Valsavangi in Buldhana district, started developing abnormally fast growing teeth, four months ago. While initially, his parents ignored the peculiar growth, tension grew when his right lower jaw started to swell.

“I did not have much money and we could not understand what was wrong with my son. We first visited a private doctor after which we went to a public hospital in Aurangabad. The doctors in Aurangabad referred us to JJ hospital, stating that it is out of their medical expertise,” said Suresh Gawai, Aashiq’s father.

Gawai, who cultivates cotton in Valsavangi, can hardly speak Hindi. He still cannot understand the medical anomaly his son developed. With no money in his pockets, he reached Mumbai and admitted Aashiq to JJ hospital on July 1.

Later, he was informed about the Rajiv Gandhi Jeevandayee Arogya Yojana, a scheme that provides free medical treatment to poor patients, and enlisted his son under the scheme.

On July 21, during a six-hour long surgery, a team of doctors removed the abnormal growth of teeth from Aashiq’s lower jaw.


“The abnormal growth was a benign tumour. He had a normal jawline, but one molar tooth in the lower jaw had given birth to hundreds of tiny teeth. There were clusters of tooth buds in his lower jaw,” said Dr Sunanda Dhivare, head of dentistry department at JJ hospital.

The doctors in the hospital themselves admitted to having witnessed such a condition for the first time. ENT surgeon Dr Vandana Thorawade said during the surgery, they ensured that the patient’s face symmetry did not change.

“The bone around which the tumour was attached had become brittle and thin. That was the only complication. We could not let that bone break and so we slowly removed one tooth after another,” Thorawade added.


At present, he is on a liquid diet and should be able to eat solid food in a few days.

The Real Life Sleeping Beauty Has Slept 64 Days

by

Seventeen-year-old Nicole Delien, dubbed the real-life "Sleeping Beauty," sleeps for up to 19 hours a day and once slept for 64 days straight. She has only been awake for Christmas three times since she was 7 years old. She may have earned the envy of insomniacs everywhere, but Delien is living more of a nightmare than a fairy tale.

Diagnosed with Kleine-Levin syndrome or KLS, the teen suffers from a rare disorder that affects a mere 1,000 people in the country. It is characterized by recurring periods of excessive sleep, which occur as "episodes," typically lasting from several days to a few weeks. The episodes can be punctuated with periods of disorientation, irritability and hallucinations. The state has been described as the delirium one feels when waking from anesthesia.

The onset of these bouts of sleep come abruptly. Delien says that she begins to feel tired, and then … sleep. She does not remember what happens during the episodes. As can be seen in the video below, she seems to be in a state somewhere in-between asleep and awake, much like the dreamy realm that sleepwalkers inhabit during their midnight perambulations.

The onset of the bizarre disorder occurred when Delien was 6.5 years old. According to the National Institutes of Health, the syndrome may be related to malfunction of the hypothalamus and thalamus, parts of the brain that govern appetite and sleep. The teen’s doctor suggests that the cause of the syndrome may somehow be triggered by illnesses or viruses.

Fortunately for the handful of miserable sleeping beauties in the world, the bad dream resolves itself; symptoms dissipate after eight years, on average, give or take six years. Good news for the teen? Indeed. Says Delien, “It’s not fun because you miss out on a lot.”

17 Magical Houses Taken Straight From A Fairy Tale

by

It’s often said that home is where the heart is, but I’m sure that most of us would easily fall in love with these fairytale cottages and leave our old homes behind in a heartbeat.

What goes in to making a fairytale cottage? First of all, it’s clear that you need a rural setting, preferably a forest with witches and wolves or fairies and elves hiding behind every tree and rock.

Then there’s the cottage itself. Some of these are based on historical styles while others feature fantastic designs found only in their creators’ imaginations. However, even the ones with realistic architectural elements still stand with one foot in reality and the other in a fairy tale.

Arguably the most interesting cottages among these, however, are the ones that are most committed to the realm of fantasy. Wild and strange curves, ornate forms, curling roofs and little stone pathways are what truly make a cottage look like it was torn from the pages of a fairy tale!
