Another 10 Truly Weird Music Videos

Artist: Lily Allen [WARNING: language is NSFW.] If the title wasn’t enough to get the theme across, then let me indulge you.

Most are also extremely misogynistic, although, in some, women avenge themselves against the brutal attacks, sexual, violent, or both that the movies’ villains perpetrate against them. One might wonder who would watch such fare. However, the fact that each original film spawned a series of one or more sequels, developing into a franchise suggests that plenty of people have not only enjoyed the first films but have returned to watch others in the series....

One of the hottest places on Earth, the Afar depression – lying between Ethiopia and Eritrea – is on average 100 metres below sea level. With a mere 20km between the surface and the hot magma bubbling below, the land is being slowly thinned by tectonic movements.

Top 10 Important Blunders Of Ancient Science

Ptolemy’s writings proved influential in early astronomy, and he was revered throughout the Middle Ages in Europe and Arabia.
