We’ve all heard of Freemasonry and the supposedly hidden agenda its members have to achieve global domination through a new world order, but how many of us really know anything substantial about the subject? Freemasonry is one of the world’s oldest and largest fraternities. While its traditions date back to early history, Masonry in its current form appeared when its public events were noticed by the residents of London in 1717. Although Masonry—particularly during its early days—had some elements of secrecy, the first discovery of the supposedly highly secret Masonic ritual actually happened in 1696! Since then there have been tens of thousands of books published about this not-so-secret organization….READ MORE

The Parthenon, proudly standing on the Athenian Acropolis, is considered by many historians and archaeologists alike as the undisputed symbol of Athenian democracy and the cradle of Western civilization. The monument is also considered one of the finest buildings of all time by a large number of architects worldwide, attracts millions of tourists each year, and was designed by the most famous sculptor of antiquity, Phidias, while two of the most influential architects ever, Ictinus and Callicrates, supervised the practical construction work of the temple….READ MORE

Batman is arguably the most famous and beloved superhero in the world (though I’m sure Superman’s hard-core fans will disagree). Why exactly do people love and obsess over Batman so much? One reason has to do with his unhappy childhood and the fact that his parents were murdered when he was very young. A harsh and traumatic backstory (which makes Batman oddly relatable). Batman is also admired for his incredible courage and his dedication to fighting crime for a better and safer world. Further, Batman is not a powerful god like Thor, an alien with incredible, almost godly superpowers like Superman, experimentally modified like Captain America or the Hulk, or a mutant who self-heals and is almost impossible to kill like Wolverine. He is one of us….READ MORE

Εδώ και πολλά χρόνια ακούμε για το πρόβλημα της υπογεννητικότητας που μαστίζει την χώρα, παρακολουθώντας άπραγοι να εκτυλίσσεται άλλο ένα δράμα της σύγχρονης Ελληνικής πραγματικότητας. Προσωπικά ενθυμούμαι να ακούω για υπογεννητικότητα, από τότε που ήμουν παιδί ακόμα και δεν καταλάβαινα καν τι σήμαινε η λέξη. Είχε απηυδήσει η κακομοίρα η μάνα μου να προσπαθεί να μου εξηγήσει την μια απορία που είχα μετά την άλλη, καθώς ήμουν ολίγον τι περίεργος από μικρούλης….READ MORE

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is without a doubt one of the most anticipated movies of 2016. Now that Star Wars: The Force Awakens is old news, it’s time for Warner Bros. to step up its game and, most importantly, not disappoint its hundreds of millions of fans. As for what the fans will be seeing? If the trailers are any indicators, we will finally get a chance to witness what unarguably is the greatest fantasy match-up between the two most famous superheroes ever: Superman and Batman. That alone is enough reason for a geek like me to be happy, and enough to compile a list of 25 facts about Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice….READ MORE

An exoplanet is any planet that orbits a star other than our sun and come in all sizes; from bigger than Jupiter to smaller than Earth. Just as in our solar system, exoplanets can orbit their own stars from any distance. In fact, some exoplanets orbit so close to their stars that their surface temperatures can reach temperatures upwards of 2,200 °C (you definitely don’t want to live there). However, some exoplanets will orbit at just the right distance (known as the “habitable zone”) and are the right temperature to have liquid water on their surface which means they might be able to support life. These are but a couple of the many fascinating exoplanets found out there….READ MORE

Music videos have been a significant part of the music industry for the last three decades since MTV first went on the air in 1981. The value of music videos is highlighted in awards given to honor the various aspects of video creation and development, with the most famous being the MTV Video Music Awards. Some artists, though, have gone over the top throughout the years by spending crazy amounts of money on video production, in some cases for songs that we can’t even remember. Would you like to read about 25 examples of artists who spent some major dough on their videos….READ MORE

Many of us learned about the Soviet Union through heavily propagandistic Hollywood films (a la Rambo III and Rocky IV), where the Soviets were portrayed as evil, mechanical robots with no human feelings whatsoever. However, the truth about America’s greatest rivalry was vastly different. Being one of the world’s two superpowers for most of the second half of the twentieth century, the USSR went head-to-head with the United States in a series of fields from technology to science, military power to sports, and politics to culture….READ MORE

The Universe is full of mysteries and unexplained phenomenons. Its sheer size alone is a mystery in it of itself and lets not even talk about whats contained within it (though we are going to talk about it in this post). After all, what is the universe? According to Wikipedia, it is all of time and space and its contents. It includes planets, stars, galaxies, the contents of intergalactic space, the smallest subatomic particles, and all matter and energy. A pretty standard answer and probably a disappointing one to many. If you search a little deeper, however, you will find that science has some mind-blowing answers to this seemingly simple mysteries….READ MORE
