History of the Parthenon By : Roger Smith Greece’s famous Parthenon is one of the most instantly recognizable structures in the world. With its scarred but still-elegant white columns and imposing position on top of a rocky Athenian hill, many modern architects consider the Parthenon to be architectural perfection. And even though the building itself has been stripped down to a shell of its former self, the Parthenon is as endlessly impressive today as it was thousands of years ago.

Instead of calculating thrust and windspeed and angles, this daredevil just… jumped. There was no math involved in his jumps. He would simple look at the distance to be jumped, make some estimates and… hope for the best. But the best didn’t always come to pass, and Evel Knievel crashed very, very often. Many even think that his incredible popularity was due to his failures more than his successes. Evel Knievel became a h The Famous Photographs of Diane Arbus By : Roger Smith "A photograph," Diane Arbus once said, "is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you, the less you know."

She was famous for photographing the people living on the fringes of society. Those that were different, those that were rejected… those that were freaks. Both beautiful and disturbing, almost all of her photographs inspire something dar Black Holes in Science Fiction By : Roger Smith There’s something infinitely romantic about the concept of black holes. It’s odd, really, if you think about it. We don’t know much about what’s on the other side of the universe or even our galaxy… but wondering about those things doesn’t capture the imagination with the same intensity as wondering, “what the heck is on the other side of black holes?” Black holes have been inspiring science fiction writers for decades. They’ve spawned countless adventures in five-penny science fiction m Wrigley Field: A Rich Tradition in Baseball By : Roger Smith Wrigley Field is a Chicago --and an American-- landmark. Constructed in 1914 for what would today be considered a “measly” $250,000, the field is one of the oldest ballparks in baseball history. And, funnily enough, it wasn’t always called Wrigley Field. When the ballpark was built, it was owned by ten shareholders, who also owned the team… and it stayed that way for about ten years. Then, in 1926, the ballpark was sold to the owner of Wrigley’s Chewing Gum, William Wrigley Jr., and renamed W Cheetah Facts: The Hard Life of the World's Fastest Cat By : Roger Smith One of the most disturbing cheetah facts is the decline in the population of this incredible animal. About 100 years ago, it’s estimated that there were over 100,000 cheetahs all over the world, from Africa to Asia to the Mediterranean. Today, most of the countries which used to host a generous cheetah population have none at all. Those cheetahs that remain are isolated mostly In Africa, and make up only 12,000 to 15,000 individual animals. One type of cheetah has even gone almost complete Quincy Jones: Becoming the Arranger By : Roger Smith Quincy Jones started out his career in music as a teenaged trumpet player. And while Jones would have had an important place in music even if he’d only played trumpet and nothing else, it was Quincy Jones’ emerging talents in composing, producing, and arranging that made the man a legend in the music industry. He became the man behind the scenes who made music happen. Quincy Jones always had a love of music. With a mentally ill mother in and out of mental hospitals, Jones counted on creati The Men in the Life of Cleopatra By : Roger Smith Cleopatra is always portrayed as an incredible beauty and a handy seducer of men.

The Ptolmeys XIII and XIV. The first man in Cleopatra’s life, Ptolemy XIII was Cleopatra’s br Tattoos and Women: A History of the Tattoo in Ancient Egypt By : Roger Smith Tattoos have been a part of human culture and expression for quite a lot longer than you might have thought. The earliest known tattoo goes back over 5,000 years, and was found on the famous mummified Ice Man discovered in 1991. Before the Ice Man was discovered, however, it was well-known that tattooing was a popular practice in other ancient cultures-- and especially ancient Egypt.
