Even when warnings are understandable and explicit, they are still ignored. In an area of Japan, there are stones inscribed with warnings that a tsunami was able to reach the level of the stone markers. Future generations were warned not to build their houses below the level of the stones.
These warning stones were readable by even modern Japanese, and described a type of disaster that all Japanese are familiar with. And yet, in some places, residential buildings were placed too close to the water, with disastrous results during the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami.
Radioactive cats and 'nuclear priesthoods' don't stand a chance.
Naah. You're being too Americo-Euro-Centric! There are probably cultures in which Santa delivers presents by shooting them to the house on an arrow! Santa would have to draw his bow millions of times on Christmas Eve.
This video tells the story of three men who sailed this race. "Published on Nov 30, 2016
Three paralyzed men take up one of sailing’s most grueling challenges — a 750 mile race to Alaska through some of the most treacherous and remote waters on the planet. With no motors allowed and many miles from any help, the competition can be too dangerous for the world’s most fearless sailors. This team is out to prove they have what it takes to finish. A film by Great Big Films. "
When I was in high school, a stray cat started to hang around our house. We never chased it away, but we also never fed it. One morning, we found the cat lying in a box of sawdust . . . with a litter of kittens. That was my first cat!
Clothing manufacturers should give their new clothes to day laborers and homeless people, with an agreement that they can exchange them for new clothes again after a certain amount of time. The streetlife-worn clothes will sell for a fortune!
For greater legitimacy, the wearer can be interviewed, and a unique story can be told about what the clothing went through. Or each wearer can be identified on the tag (e.g. "Dave from Toledo"). Particular wear patterns, associated with particular wearers may gain special status among buyers. Maybe, in one season, everyone will want to wear clothes destroyed by farm workers. Another year, roofers will be all the rage. Perhaps "Joe from Albuquerque" will become a superstar of clothing distress.
Guy walking closer with his camera is just asking to be bitten, stomped, and then dragged into the water. Passions are running high in that scene. Best to consider distance your friend.
