Hi internet! I heard you like photos. So I thought you would find these underwater photographs from Elena Kalis particularly interesting! She’s strictly an underwater photographer so she has a whole lot of these magnificent creations. Sometimes she’ll shoot photos as part of a theme as well, which makes them more fun.

Scientists at MIT claim to have developed a new drug that appears to be capable of attacking not just a particular virus, but potentially all viruses. So far the drug has been tested in 11 mammalian cell types and has proved not only to be non-toxic in these cell types, but also to be effective against 15 different viruses. You read that right! DRACO, this new super drug is currently effective against fifteen viruses including the common cold and there could be more!

Two decades have passed since the demonic lords, Diablo, Mephisto, and Baal, set out across the world of Sanctuary on a vicious rampage, twisting humanity to their unholy will. Yet for those who battled the Prime Evils, the memory fades slowly.
When Deckard Cain returns to the ruins of Tristram Cathedral seeking clues to defeat new stirrings of evil, a fiery harbinger of doom falls from the heavens, striking the very ground where Diablo once entered the world. This fire from the sky reawakens ancient evils and calls the heroes of Sanctuary to defend the mortal world against the rising powers of the Burning Hells once again.
But Francis doesn’t care… HE’S PISSED.

Sepak takraw; photo courtesy of norhendraruslanSepak takraw is a sport that blends soccer (football) and volleyball into an epic battle of KICK VOLLEYBALL! It’s most popular in countries in Asia, such as Malaysia, Indonesia, Korea, and Thailand, but it’s also played in other parts of the world as well, including Canada and the United States. What makes sepak takraw different from Volleyball is that it’s played with a rattan ball and players are only permitted to touch this ball with their feet, knees, chest or head.

11 Covers of Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” (including Miley Cyrus and Tori Amos)

Bands around the world cover songs every day; whether it’s at a bar, on a stage, or in a concert hall, bands and artists enjoy paying tribute to the musicians who inspire them. For new or local artists, covering a popular song or two can be an easy way to please a crowd before introducing an original song that the musician hopes they’ll also enjoy.
Something I’ve noticed about most garage bands and cover bands is that almost all of them can play Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana. And it’s not just because it’s an easy song to play (though it does have a simple rhythm), but also because nearly everyone likes it Nirvana is hardcore sh*t! It’s always a hit when playing live because it’s so familiar. Everyone has heard of Kurt Cobain and Nirvana.
But it’s not just the fans and listeners; it’s so popular that I suspect you would have a difficult time finding any musician that couldn’t play it or at least come close just having heard the melody. Since so many people are familiar with the song it’s an easy first song for many bands to practice and learn as well.

These short films (Move, Eat, and Learn) are absolutely brilliant. Rick Mereki and 2 friends spent 44 days travelling the world. During their travels they visited 11 countries and filmed almost a terabyte of footage with their 2 cameras.
