"Things seem impossible until we do them." "If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change." Do these thoughts help you? Do they give you an extra boost? Are they the fuel for your motivation? Inspirational thoughts or quotes on aesthetic photos with sunset motifs, etc., attributed to celebrities, are often read by people when they want to motivate themselves and others. We have bad news for all of you who do. The latest research has shown that individuals who like to post motivational thoughts are, on average, less intelligent!

Sometimes I walk around the keyboard, sometimes in nature. One time I twist the heels, the other time the kitchen. I press the trigger once, the pedals a second time. And one time I play the role of a moviegoer, another time a nanny. Life offers such a wide range of things that it would be pointless to dip your brush in just a color or two, right?
The Improv Everywhere team prepared an interesting flash mob in Byrant Park in New York. Dressed identically, they stood in front of a stage that read "Dance Coach Wanted" and waited for a random passer-by to step on it. At first, they just watched in amazement, but then some individuals took courage, stepped onto the stage and showed the hundred dancers their dance steps. They faithfully followed their every move.
Volvo's truck development department is not kidding! Well, sometimes a little bit. Do you remember the famous Jean-Claude Van Damme action hero string between two of their trucks? Or when they let a kid play with their truck like it was a remote control toy? Now they want to break two speed records with the powerful Volvo Iron Knight truck. We will find out whether they will succeed on August 24, 2016!

The Czech swimming team, which competed at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, had a good time in their spare time. Boys and girls took advantage of the photogenic nature of Brazilian beaches and filmed a sexy adaptation of the opening credits of the TV series Baywatch (Baywatch, 1989) entitled CzechWatch on one of them. David Hasselhoff would be proud! We believe that these swimmers have a bright future in the world of film and fashion after their swimming career.
The history of the wedding cake is as extensive as the wedding cake itself. Its tradition dates back to Antiquity. Back then, the cakes were sweet pastries made from yeast dough, sweetened with honey and filled with nuts. The symbolism of the cake as part of the wedding ceremony began with the ancient Romans and Greeks. The first ones broke the wedding cake over the bride's head as a sign of the loss of virginity, wishing the newlyweds fertility, while in Greece, the wedding party threw small cakes at the newlyweds, wishing them fertility in marriage. Multi-tiered cakes appeared in the 17th century. See wedding cakes over time in the picture.
German twins Anna and Lisa Hahner finished 81st and 82nd in the marathon and would probably have gone unnoticed if they hadn't crossed the finish line holding hands. Instead of the moment going down as one of the most moving of the Rio 2016 Olympics, the Germans became the target of criticism as the move was self-promotional, with the director of the German Athletics Federation, Thomas Kurschilgen, even saying that their performance looked like olympic match one big joke. What is your opinion?
Berlin-based artist Valentin Hirsch has been tattooing for more than five years. During this period, he developed a unique style that combines natural and geometric characters, and his symmetrical tattoos are full of experimentation. See for yourself.
Peach season is here! Why not make the most of seasonal fruit? Homemade peach jam is a great way to extend summer on your plate.
Are you interested in how Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata would sound with an electric guitar? Then watch the video of 17-year-old guitar virtuoso Tina S, who will leave you speechless with her extremely fast fingers! This is not the first time that the young woman has taken up classical music with an electric guitar.
The story of Kenyan athlete Julius Yego is truly unusual. Although Kenya has always been considered the land of runners, Julius Yego is not a runner. Julius Yego is a javelin thrower. And not some average one. He came to the Rio Olympics as a favorite. The force came to this title in an unusual way. After being written off by the coaches in high school and realizing he wasn't a good runner, he tried his hand at the javelin. The problem? Where the hell do you get a javelin coach in Kenya and most importantly where do you even get a javelin? Regarding the latter, he has somehow found his way, and he even hired a YouTube channel as a coach! This honed him into one of the best javelin throwers in the world!
