History of Earthquakes in Chile

Chile currently holds the record of the most earthquakes in the world. The biggest ever recorded was in Chile 9.5 magnitude in May 1960. Killing 1655, 3000 injured and about 2 million were made homeless. And in the month of January 2010 there was one on a smaller scale of 5.1.

Let's hope other countries help Chile the same way they are helping Haiti.

Killer Whale


This freaks me out!
Apparently this killer whale has a past of drowning people in different occasions. I wonder why Sea World kept going on with this whale's show. They really need to reevaluate the safety procedures with this type of animals.

The Poetry of Reality!

For understanding how the world works

We are always at the brink of the known

Spanning the generations
We remember those who prepared the way
Seeing for them also

The world looks very different to you
And that understanding empowers you

And with it, we can improve our lives

The more remarkable are the discoveries we make

From our lonely point in the cosmos
We have through the power of thought
Been able to peer back to a brief moment
After the beginning of the universe

To think a little more deeply about things

Science replaces private predjudice
With publicly verifiable evidence

Frustated Video Dater Loses His Cool


Valentine's Day is close and everybody is all about dating, getting each other presents to show that love. But there is a portion of people that everybody forgets, the lonely people. Some of them are so lonely, shy and frustrated for not being able to find the other half to share special moments that make Valentine's Day so special all over the world. Some people just give up all hopes of finding that special person; shifting their love to pets (I know a couple of people who have like 10 cats in their apartment), or some just give all their affection to sex doll or toys, (now they are making them more real). Other people don't give up and realize they can use help from dating services like speed dating, online dating services, some of them are free and others require a yearly membership, other type of dating service that has been around for awhile is Video Dating. In video dating you get to talk in front a camera and sell yourself to convince other people to choose you for dating.

I found this clip of video dating at it's best (I am being sarcastic) of this desperate guy who lost control and... You will see for yourself.
