Battle of Balikpapan (1945) The  Battle of Balikpapan  was the concluding stage of Operation Oboe, the campaign to liberate Japanese-held British and Dutch Borneo.

S*X AND FEELINGS A man can have s*x with a lady and still don't have any feelings for her, most men only need space to have s*x but majority of women need reason to have s*x. 90% of woman cannot have s*x without feelings, A man can travel for eight hours just to have s*x with a female and yet, not love her or even have any feelings for her.    S*x makes men act as if they are in love while they are not!! What they feel is lust, what they feel is what they see which is curves and a huge behind, go through a lady's silky skin thigh for a 5 minutes or less, ejac*late and forget. The eight hours travel sacrifice, gifts bought, hotel paid for and other expenses may seem to be coming from true love but they were all in the sacrifice for s*x and nothing more.

So many woman are bought and blinded by materialistic things, yet miss the small little gestures that mon...

18 COSTLY MISTAKES THAT HUSBANDS MAKE 1. WORKING SO HARD AT YOUR JOB/BUSINESS BUT NOT IN YOUR MARRIAGE Men, your company, your career, and your business are growing and flourishing because you lead them; your marriage will grow and flourish when you lead it and dedicate time to it. 2. THINKING THAT FLIRTING WITH OTHER WOMEN IS NOT CHEATING You may not physically sleep with other women, but emotionally cheating is also unfaithfulness. Receiving nude images and having phone intimacy with other women is also cheating. Talking suggestively and attracting temptations is also cheating. If you are a flirt, flirt with your wife. If you claim your wife is too rigid, treat her well, and she will respond to your kinky ways. She also wants intimate pleasure and to feel wanted. 3. BEING GENEROUS OUTSIDE AND STINGY AT HOME Don't be the husband who quickly says yes when other people ask for help, for your time and your money, but stingy to your wife and child/children. Your family comes first. Do...

Bob Marley was once asked if there was a perfect woman. He replied: Who cares about perfection? Even the moon is not perfect, it is full of craters. The sea is incredibly beautiful, but salty and dark in the depths. The sky is always infinite, but often cloudy. So, everything that is beautiful isn't perfect, it's special. Therefore, every woman can be special to someone. Stop being "perfect", but try to be free and live, doing what you love, not wanting to impress others!

Before refrigerators existed, people would preserve products that needed to be kept cold, such as milk, by putting frogs in them. In the past, each community had its own method of preservation. The ancient Russian and Finnish communities found a magnificent and very clever solution to this milk preservation: Throwing brown frogs called 'Rana temporaria' into milk... A scientific study conducted in 2013 proved that this method worked.  It was revealed that proteins such as Brevinin 1Tb synthesized from the skins of frogs (and other amphibians) restricted the life of some bacteria.  Thus, the Russians and Finns discovered, albeit through trial and error, that they could fight bacteria by adding proteins produced from the skins of frogs to their milk.

Did you know that if you have a pacemaker, you can include it in your Will to be donated to a dog in need after you pass away? Although pacemakers cannot be used for another human, they can help dogs with heart problems and potentially save their lives. You can arrange for the pacemaker to be sent to a vet of your choice. Many pacemakers are simply thrown away, and dogs may die because people do not know about this option. Donating the pacemaker can even save the dog's owner the cost of a new one, which can sometimes make a crucial difference in affording life-saving treatment.   Credit goes to respective owner ✅

Alexandre Cabanel was 24-years-old when he painted L’Ange Dechu (The Fallen Angel) in 1847 as an academic oil on canvas painting. It is currently stored at the Musée Fabre in France. The Fallen Angel is perhaps one of the most popular works of art ever created. Behind flexed arms, a winged nude hides his face. His brows arch over red-rimmed eyes and a tear of rage as his mane of hair breaks in the wind. Of course, his physique is flawless. Although his posture seems relaxed, each muscle is tensed and ready to fire. This is the last moment before he is cast out of paradise. An angel who has fallen from grace and has been banished by God. Cabanel’s inspiration for this work was John Milton’ epic poem, Paradise Lost (1667) and fallen angels: Moloch, Belial, Mulciber, Mammon and Beelzebub. The last of whom is Beelzebub, better known today as Lucifer.

Pearly Queen and Pearly Prince, London, 1926-1927. Cockney 'Pearly kings' (originally costermongers - fruit and vegetable sellers), wore suits covered in mother-of-pearl buttons. In 1926-1927, the Pearly Queen and Pearly Prince in London were part of the distinctive Cockney tradition of the Pearly Kings and Queens. Originating from costermongers (fruit and vegetable sellers), these community figures wore elaborate suits adorned with hundreds of mother-of-pearl buttons. This unique tradition began in the late 19th century, when Henry Croft, an orphan street sweeper, started decorating his clothes with pearl buttons to draw attention while raising money for charity. The Pearly Kings and Queens quickly became a symbol of charitable work and community spirit in London's East End, with each borough having its own Pearly King and Queen. Their outfits, painstakingly sewn with intricate patterns of pearl buttons, became a visual representation of Cockney pride and philanthropy, sho...

Witchcraft executions. England and Wales. Writing in 2018, some 400 years later, it is hard to take some of the accusations made against, usually defenceless, poor, elderly women, seriously.  I do not therefore propose to offer any judgement about the validity or fairness of the trials or as to why certain areas of the country, particularly Essex and East Anglia had so many more of them than other areas.  People in the 16th and 17th centuries did believe in witchcraft and this belief certainly continued into the 19th century.  Many thought that Mary Bateman, the “Yorkshire Witch” would be able to save herself from the gallows at York in 1809.  The people of Leeds had not wished to report her criminal activities to the authorities in case she put a spell on them.  I photographed Mary’s skeleton in 2007, which was on display at the Thackray Medical Museum in Leeds.  Witchcraft was certainly a convenient scapegoat for unexplained illness and sudden deaths amon...

Once upon a time, in 16th century Germany, a traveling sword master named Gerhardt von Klugenau challenged a local baker, Herr Hugendorf, to a duel for some petty reason, intending to humiliate the slightly overweight "burgher."  Reluctant to tarnish his esteemed reputation among the townspeople, the baker, although in a position to decline the challenge due to his social standing, ultimately chose to accept it rather than be perceived as a coward.  On the day of the duel, Herr Hugendorf, followed by his pale and visibly frightened “frau,” a few concerned friends, and a bunch of gawkers, showed up at the place designated for such amusing events.  Master Gerhardt, having arrived earlier, entertained the gathered crowd with a display of impressive sword flourishes.   Nodding “guten morgen” to familiar faces,  Herr Hugendorf hesitantly stepped onto the dueling platform, drew his sword, and then, with a swift single stroke, sent the traveling sword master strai...

"In the late 40s, there was a rumor that there was a "hermit," disenchanted and disillusioned with the world, supposedly "out-of-sync" with society, living in California in a cave under one of the L’s in the Hollywood sign. No one really cared about this strange man, until one night in 1947, when someone tried to enter backstage at the Lincoln Theater in Los Angeles. Nat King Cole was playing there, and the man said he had something for Cole. Of course, the employees didn't let the strange man see Cole, so he gave whatever he had with Cole's manager. What he had was a song sheet, which Cole would later take a look at. Cole liked the song and wanted to record it, but he had to find the strange man. When asked, the people who saw the man said he was strange, indeed, with shoulder-length hair and beard, wearing sandals and a white robe. Cole finally tracked him down in New York City. When Cole asked him where he was staying, the strange man declared he was...

A skull of a girl was found from Pydna, an ancient Greek port on the Aegaean Sea, north of the holy mountain Olympus, in a district that was called Pieria, during the excavation from 1994 to 1996.  She lived around 1400 BC and died quite young, as it is seen from her not yet fully developed dentition. For her funeral, she was decorated with a bronze diadem, a bronze bracelet, three finger rings, a necklace, and metal fittings on her belt. Archaeologists gave her the name "sleeping girl." Diadems of the kind the girl wore were very rare as burial gifts for girls or young women. They indicate the high social rank of the deceased.

Charles Baker was a notable American inventor born into slavery on August 3, 1859, in Savannah, Missouri.  After losing his mother, Betsy Mackay, when he was just three months old, Baker was raised by his owner's wife, Sallie Mackay, and his father, Abraham Baker. He was the youngest of five children, including Susie, Peter, Annie, and Ellen, who were all freed following the Civil War. Baker later pursued education at Franklin College and worked as an assistant to his father, an express agent. This exposure to mechanical work with wagons and linchpins sparked Baker's interest in mechanical sciences. Baker dedicated over two decades to developing his invention: a friction heater. He experimented with various friction methods, including rubbing bricks together and using different metals. After twenty-three years, his invention took shape as a device featuring two metal cylinders, one inside the other, with a wooden spinning core in the center that generated friction. In 1904, Bak...

Mongols were the first nation to build an army of soldiers, rather than an army of feudal warriors and mercenaries.  Mongol soldiers fought as well disciplined formations and did not seek individual glory. They had no superfluous customs (like inviting enemy champions to single duels) or religious rituals to perform before a battle.  Their equipment was modest yet effective, they were not burdened by heavy armor, they did not decorate their weapons with gilding or gemstones or wear elaborate helmets like some European knights did.  Indeed their soldiers had a surprisingly modern look: In old paintings (and modern illustrations) they look like how you expect an early 20th century cavalryman would look: A simple overall coat, a sabre, riding boots, a water bottle, an helmet or felt hat. Nothing more.

Albert Dyer - a paedophile murderer. 32 year old Albert Dyer was employed as a school crossing guard in Inglewood, Los Angeles, California. He was convicted of the murders of three young girls who were pupils at the Centinela Elementary school which he worked at. On Saturday 24th of June 1937, 7 year old Madeline Everett, her 9 year old sister Melba and their friend, 8 year old Jeanette Stephens went to Centinela Park near their homes in Inglewood.  They did not return for their evening meal and their parents reported them missing, sparking a state-wide alarm.  The police were assisted by a large number of volunteers, including Dyer, in searching for the girls.  Sadly their bodies were discovered on Monday the 26th of June in a deep gully in a remote section of Baldwin Hills, by some Boy Scouts who had volunteered in the search. Dyer was described by those who knew him as “simpleminded,” “a nut, but good-hearted” and “goofy, but harmless”.  He apparently had told oth...

Sky burial   ("bird-scattered") is a funeral practice in which a human corpse is placed on a mountaintop to decompose while exposed to the elements or to be eaten by scavenging animals, especially carrion birds like vultures and corvids. Comparable excarnation practices are part of Zoroastrian burial rites where deceased are exposed to the elements and scavenger birds on stone structures called Dakhma. Sky burials are endemic to Tibet, Qinghai, Sichuan, and Inner Mongolia, as well as in Mongolia, Nepal, Bhutan, and parts of India such as Sikkim and Zanskar.  The locations of preparation and sky burial are understood in the Vajrayana Buddhist traditions as charnel grounds. Few such places remain operational today, as the Chinese Communist Party initially banned the practice completely during the Cultural Revolution as ...
