The 5 most over-rated tourist attractions in the world!

ANGKOR, CAMBODIA

The build-up: Angkor boasts some of the most jaw dropping buddhist monuments in south east Asia.
The Reality: Unfortunatly theres no getting around the crowds here. The days when Angkor were remote and still are sadly long gone. The temples are now firmly on the sight seeing circuit.
The alternative: Escape the crowded temples of Angkor, and head to the far less touristy Borobudur, Indonesia- one of the true wonders of the buddhist culture.

MACHU PICCHU, PERU

The build-up: Theres no doubt that machu picchu holds its own as a tourist spot, as it holds the magic of the Inca.
The Reality: The walk to the Machu Picchu is not a pleasant one and the entrance fee has risen to more then 25 pounds. 300 american dollars. The amount of money you spend during the day can reach over 600 including the bus which is the only means of transportation in and out of the city. That is if you are one of the 400 people allowed in there PER day.
The alternative: Want to see the birthplace of the fabled Inca? Give machu Picchu a miss and head for bolivias Isla de Sol, where the civilization first rose to greatness.


THE COLOSSEUM, ROME

The build-up: Tourists have been enthusing about the colosseum since the 18th century, even as a partial ruin, it can still take your breath away.
The reality: Italy's most visited site is often over crowded and has long queues.
The entire building is a traffic roundabout and the precious inside has boards and gallys everywhere, preventing people from touching the walls. Your trip will be so much memorable, especially if you get pick-pocketed.
The Alternative: yes its an ancient cirle or death and glory, but straight across the Adriatic sea, is equally imposing arena in Pula, Croatia.
PETRA, JORDAN

The build-up: The impressive site was built in the 3rd century. The city holds, rooms, temples, tombs, and stables all made out of one giant rock.
The Reality: The tourism villiage that has grown up around Petra now threatens to outside the ancient city itself.
The Alternative: The extrodinary rock-hewn monuments of lalibela in Ethiopia, challenge Petra in number, artistic accomplishment and above all enivronment.
STONEHENGE, UK

The build-up: The rocks are gorgeous, dramatic and huge. Anicent paganism revolves around these old rocks.
The Reality: You cant touch it, you cant walk around it, you cant even walk along its perimetre, and you have to pay to stare at rocks.
The alternative: Stonehenge is one of the worlds most megalithic sites- but nearby Avebury, has a much larger stone circle, where people are able to walk among its ruins.

10 Most controversial foods around the world!

From the Mediterranean to Japan, Atlantic or Northern Blue Fin Tuna is quickly being fished to extinction. Blue fin tuna is highly priced by sushi chefs and is a $7.2 billion dollar industry in Japan. However the way the blue fin tuna is being fished, is now unsustainable. Blue fin is already extinct in the black sea- but there is an outcry from restaurateurs who need to serve it- or lose business.
There's fresh, and then theres "fresh". The controversy behind this plate stems from activists, who say its cruel to eat animals when they re still alive.
In Asia you'll find your fish so fresh its still moving. for example the frog heart is served with the frog cut open right in front of you, while the heart is still beating. Biting into the beating heart is suppose to be a delicacy. Similarly sea urchins and shrimp are served with there whiskers still moving. Baby octopus is served while its still wriggling on your plate. The key is to chew it well so that when you swallow the tentacles don't get stuck on the way down your throat.

With the huge decline in polar bear population due to global warming and trophy hunting. Eating polar bear has become a huge historical controversy. For hundreds of years, they were used for there fur, fat, and oil, as well as there meat (only for aboriginals who stomachs can adapt to this kind of meat). Unfortunately trophy hunting is allowed, and helps fund alot of small arctic communities.
Monkey Brains was at one time believed to be a cure for impotence.
A dish often attributed to China. The Chinese eat the brain while the monkey is still alive.
This is why activists find this so cruel.
The Ortolan, are considered a great delicacy in many countries. the birds are force fed through small tubes until there quite large. The bird is then served to the customer recently killed, and the customer is fed the bird, while biting its head off. The bird is kept in a small dark cage and then drowned in brandy and wine for flavour. If you cant see the cruelty in this, then stop reading.
One of the saddest things Ive ever heard of is eating dolphin. In some parts of Asia, eating dolphin is a 100 hear old tradition. the Asian believe the dolphin is just another species of fish and fish it just like any other. But the deer on the other hand is considered sacred and must not be harmed unlike in other cultures. The dolphin is full of mercury, and has stopped being served at schools, due to the sickness rates in Asia from serving it. The dolphin is caught, hooked then gutted while still alive.
Turtle Soup. One of the main controversies around eating turtle is that some of the species eaten are endangered such as the red ear slider.
Aside from the endangered issue, turtles (like horses, frogs and dogs) are usually seen in the pet category rather then food category.

Shark Fin soup. Since the 1300's shark fin soup has been consumed. Shark fin soup is now being served at all restaurants around the world. Shark fishing has become a larger problem then ever before. Due to the increasing rate of Shark fishing, the ocean ecosystem is now in danger to the decline in the shark population.
In 2006 Yao Ming (basketball star NBA) stopped eating Shark Fin soup in response to the controversy.
Australian crocodile hunter Steve Irwin has been known to walk out of restaurants is they serve Shark fin soup.
The controversy is that many of the sharks are cut, there fin cut off and the shark sent back to sea where they have difficulty swimming and become prey to other sharks. Dried shark fin is also a delicacy and is believed to bring wealth and good fortune.
Foie Gras. Its history beginning in 1200 BC, Foie Gras is the fattened liver of a duck or a goose. resulting in a reach buttery flavor melting in your mouth. the controversy is that the dock or goose is force fed also called "gavage". The force feeding expands there liver rapidly and develops a richer taste for the human to consume at a later date.

In the part 5-10 year eating horse meat has become common among humans. Once only eaten in china and Europe. The controversy surrounding horse meat is that most horses are considered pets or companions rather then a meal. Farms producing horses especially for meat are becoming popular just as farms for chickens or cows.

  • When cooking chicken, add about 1 1/2 inches of water in the bottom of the pan, cook your fresh chicken breast in the water for approx 7-10 mins. Cut a small slice to see if the meat is pink. If its white your in the clear! Add garlic or your favorite spice to the water to make the chicken taste great! Cooking chicken in water cuts down on the cholesterol and amount of fat. All the fat boils off into the water, and your left with delicious juicy moist chicken! My FAV!

Worlds Ugliest Animals!

THE AYE-AYE
The Aye-aye is currently an endangered species due to the fact that many of the natives in Madagascar view them as an evil omen and kill them on the spot. Definitely one of the worlds ugliest animals, but definitely wouldn't kill a creature no matter how ugly.
THE STAR- NOSED MOLE
A resident of North America this mole makes up for his poor eye sight with a hairless nose that is a "star" of 22 fleshy tentacles. The tentacles are extremely sensitive, and can even sense electricity.

THE RED LIPPED BAT FISH
The lipstick won't help. This ugly fish has quite the pout! They are terrible swimmers, and use their pectoral fins to "walk" along the ocean floor.

THE BLOB-FISH
This guy looks more like a cartoon character then a fish. The blob fish has very few muscles and moves very very slowly. It almost floats like a jelly fish along the ocean floor. To eat, the blob fish waits patiently on the ocean floor, for prey to swim by, then attacks.



COOL BUILDINGS!

This weird looking house is actually made of steel and took 28 years to build by handwork alone!
Though, it called the flying house, this house cant fly at all. However it can be moved and is built on railings and can be made to rise to different heights and face different directions to get out of the suns rays.
Interesting cartoon like pickle barrel house!
Spotted in Tokyo, this house makes use of all available space. It even has space to shelter a small car! Looking like a big safe, this company offers protection and security for famous museum pieces
This building seems a little fishy?! Isn't it obvious....
There was an old lady who lived in a shoe. This most definitely is a mobile house. As the picture isn't quite clear, it looks like the owners can move the tractor where ever they choose. Living in which ever location they please!

GIRLS AND CORPSES- Magazine

Girls and Corpses is irrelevant, politically incorrect and defintly breaks social taboo's.
Its entertaining, funny, and has great art work.
The comics are crazy, the fake ads are hilarious, not to mention the girls are hot.
I also dig the interveiws, with Sheri Moon Zombie.
It stradels the fine line between tastelessness and hilarious misogyny. G&C is very much a throwback to the horror genre of the late 70's.



Sigmund Freud once said The two greatest taboos is to bring death and sex together. Leave it to an award winning horror writer Steve Roberts to bring the two together.

Full of freaky, fun, tongue-in-cheek laughter, filled with softcore porn. G&C Lures sex nerds and gore freaks to caress its glossy pages.



Girls are corpses is a hilarious bit of satire. taking the scantily clad, pseudo porn of maxim and stuff, and taking it way over the line into a brutally comic way.
its a brilliant parody of culture with enough offesniveness to scar any kid who picks it up!




Take hot bitches, corpses, sex and death and throw it into a blender! Theyre you have it! A magazine sure to please any necrophiliac.



Cute Kitties. To make your day!

PRECIOUS EYES, PRECIOUS FACE, PRECIOUS KITTEN

ITS A HARD KNOCK LIFE FOR ME

PLEASE MUM, ANOTHER....


LIFES A CUP OF TEA


I DONT WANT TO BE A CAT ANYMORE. FROGS ARE THE WAY THE GO!

Disgustingly shiny black ass. Ass with shoestring is so much more appealing since sisqo created the "Thong song". Lemme see that thong tha-tha-tha-thong.
