Butt Glitter is a Major Thing now
There is never a "why" when it comes to fashion. Or so we have learnt during all these years. Now there is a new trend in town which will probably make you feel like a mermaid, or even better, a unicorn!
Instagram has been full with photos of people with glittery bottoms. U.K.-based artist and photographer Mia Kennington, and her squad, known as the Gypsy Shrine is the mastermind behind this trend. She pulled all strings out on her creative side after being inspired by a recent trip to the Morocco-based Beyond Sahara festival.
Tumblr media
"We were in bikinis and were getting sand all over our butts anyway, so we were like, 'Well, what if we enhance this?' So we just did loads and loads of glitter"
It might not make any sense at all to most of us. After all, you have to almost bare your bikini clad or hot panted bottoms for the world to see. But as we said before, we won't ask why. Moreover, we have been sparkling up our makeup and even our hair for a while now. So, why not our butts?
There is very little doubt about this trend making it to all the music festivals this year. And honestly, we can't wait to see our favourite celebs trying out this trend in Coachella.
Meanwhile we will just pretend that we are unicorns because we don't even know what else to do.

New Virtual Bank For Estonian E-residents!
Republic Of Estonia Launches Virtual Bank For E ResidentsIn the month of January 2017, The Republic of Estonia launched an e-residency program for Entrepreneurs looking to do business in the EU. It was a wonderful endeavor for anyone interested in a location-independent business. With the help of this transnational digital identity one can do wonders! The program was launched in partnership with The Anti Alias—An Online Marketing Agency. With the help of this, any Indian citizen can start an Estonian company online. It takes less than a day to register the company. And one can access company documents remotely. This makes it extremely easy for businesses to access and tap the European market! "In India, it has been proved time and again that, good ideas spread the fastest by word of mouth. E-residency would be beneficial for companies which already have a base in Europe. But could save them time and money thanks to Estonia's business-friendly bureaucracy and tax environment." The Estonian Government said in a press statement in January. Now the Republic of Estonia has announced the possibility of a Virtual Bank Account facility. People having an E-residency card and an Estonian company, could access this feature. The facility will first be available to EEA Economic region in the first phase. And they plan to launch the same service outside the EEA in the second phase—to the Indian citizens. The program since its inception has received more than 20,000 applications for e-Residency! If you haven't applied for one yet, visit their new website and apply now for your very own Estonian Company!

Fidget Spinners Comes To India!
Fidget Spinners Taking A Roll In India
Fidget spinners have become 2017's leading toy fad. One can not deny the craziness it has left in its wake in the US! And now they have come to India! Amazon, Ebay, Flipkart and almost every other major online retailer seemed to have stocked them up. And for few hundred bucks, they are yours to spin! Some say it calms your nerves for others, it's plain old fun.
Wondering what a fidget spinner is?
A basic fidget spinner consists of 2-3 paddles or blunt blades. They are linked to a static core in the centre. All one has to do is squeeze the core and give the blades a flick! The continuous spinning motion is hypnotic and if you find yourself glued to it, don't beat yourself up!
Tumblr media
There has been a lot of commentary around this new craze! Many consider it to be a passing fad, only time will tell if the fidget spinners are here to stay or are to be forgotten in the dark alleys of long lost toy-fads! Grown-ups seem to be facing a bizarre situation! Never has a toy so baffled them. Maybe, that's it! Are fidget spinners not meant for grown ups? Maybe. But for many of us, we do see their charm—Not for Adults? Nope!

Hangover Cures From Around The World
Effective And Bizzare - The Hangover Cures That Are Bound To Work!
The most sold product anywhere in the world is food but the second most sold product is Alcohol. It’s an essential part of many cultures. Some people use it during a celebration and some use it during a social gathering. But what is more important is the after effects of alcohol. The Hangover -  that happens the next morning. The conventional way of getting rid of a hangover is having a glass of lemon water or a cup of black coffee. But that’s not how the whole world does it.
Here is the list of countries and their way of kicking hangover in style.
The United States
The Prairie Oyster is cocktail made to buck you up after a heavy night of drinking. A raw egg is placed in a glass with the yolk intact to give the appearance of an oyster. With Worcestershire sauce, a shot of spirit, Tabasco sauce, a dash of vinegar, salt & amp; pepper. Then drink the mixture in one go and make sure you don’t choke on it. If you are not a big fan of raw eggs this is definitely not the best hangover cure for you.
P.S. Raw eggs will not make you feel like Rocky.
Tumblr media
Russia
Well, Russians are fond of consuming alcohol especially vodka. So they had to find a cure for the hangover. So one of the cures is called Kvass. It is a mildly alcoholic beverage made by dried rye bread with sugar and yeast until it ferments.P.S. the cure looks worse than the hangover
Tumblr media
Britain
Brits are known to be binge drinkers when it comes to excessive drinking they cannot hold back. And they use science and a famous university to come up with a cure for a hangover. Newcastle University declared the bacon sandwich as the best way treating a hangover. This is because bacon contains plenty of amino acids salt and fat. They will help you in restoring the salts and the fat. And help to settle your stomach.P.S. do you really need an excuse for the bacon sandwich?
Tumblr media
Scotland
The Highland Fling is a pint of buttermilk mixed with a little of cornflour to thicken.  The drink is seasoned liberally with salt and pepper. This would be an excellent way to re-hydrate. It will settle the stomach and the lactose will raise the blood sugar level to wake you up.P.S. the Scots have got it right! Tried this - works like a charm!
Germany
The German word for a hangover is katzenjammer. It relates to the screeching of cats and refers to the noise made by those suffering from one. They have a number of cures to treat the hangover. One method is to eat meat and bananas. The next day bananas will provide sugar and potassium. And the meat will help to settle a rumbling stomach. A more traditional cure would be rolling mops and beer. A rollmop is a fillet of pickled herring with some filling in the middle.P.S. wine shops should start selling bananas with every six pack!
Sicily
Here's a goo one for you! Dried bull penis used to be the go-to cure for Sicilians. In many ways, the penis is a good source of protein. The bull penis is so large that it can be turned into a walking stick! And by the time one has chewed their way through one, so much time would have passed that the hangover cured itself.P.S. take one for the team! And let us know!

We have all wanted friends that are supportive and fun just like Barney! The one that is quirky like Emma! And Rational yet extremely loving like Wilma! We have always wanted an adorable little friend like Pebbles. It's not a joke to say, that decades ahead, we are still in love with everything the stone age theme cartoon had to offer!
Tumblr media
After all, we are all 'the biggest' fan of the show!
Well, one such fan has gotten his wish completed. The fan has got a big slice of Fred Flintstones life by buying the House that resembles with that of the show. Situated in the suburbs of San-Francisco, this house has a dome shaped architecture. It originally came to the market with a price of $4 million and then got lowered to $3.19 million.
Tumblr media

Looks like childhood dreams do come expensive!

6 Luckiest Bastards Who Defied Universe!
Here Are The World's 6 Luckiest Individuals Who Survived Nuclear Attacks To Lightenings Well most of us claim to be lucky when something good happens. But then there are some who are the luckiest—Risen from death bed to hitting lotteries. Here are the Top 6 Luckiest People in the world! 1. Bill Morgan When his car collided with a truck and he was crushed under the impact everyone thought it was the end of the line for Australian Bill Morgan. Bill was declared dead for more than 14 minutes. He was somehow revived and survived after only 12 days in the coma, even after he was taken off the life support. But his luck doesn’t end here. To celebrate his survival he bought a “Scratch it” card and won a car worth AUS $17,000. When the local news station heard his story they were impressed and asked him to re-enact the scene by scratching off another card. He won AUS $ 250,000 again during the live show!
2. Edwin Robinson The odds of getting struck by lightning is 1 in 12,000. But for blind and deaf 62-year-old Edwin, those odds rose to 100 percent! Edwin was looking for his chicken in the field. He took shelter under the only tree when it began to rain! It was evidently too tempting for the lightning which of course struck him to the ground. For 20 mins he lay unconscious, before waking up and stumbling back to his house. He walked into the bedroom and got a well-deserved nap. When he woke up in evening he discovered that he could see and hear. Edwin survived the blast due to rubberized sole shoes he was wearing!
3. Joan R Ginther Did you know you’re more likely to get struck by an asteroid than hitting the lottery? But Joan Ginther won the lottery not once but astonishing 4 times! But it wasn’t just 20 or 50$ wins, each time she won multi-million dollar payouts. It all started when she first won $5.4 million, only to win $2 million a decade later. Just two years down the line, she managed to win $3 million. And then again in the year 2008, she won a whopping $10 million! 
4. Tsutomu Yamaguchi Chances of someone who lived to tell tale of a nuclear attack is less. But Tsutomu Yamaguchi has survived two nuclear attacks. It was during his business trip to Hiroshima in 1945 that the first nuclear bomb was dropped. Though injured, he survived the blast. He returned to his family in Nagasaki, the day second nuclear attack occurred. This definitely makes us believe that he is the luckiest yet unlucky person on the face of the earth! Japan has recognized Yamaguchi as the only person to survive two nuclear attacks.
5. Anders Helsturp We all know about skydiving and the risks involved in it. Jumping out of the plane and hurtling towards the ground at terminal velocity! The chute malfunction is a scary risk when you are skydiving! But for Helstrup, it was more than a mere complication. A meteorite hurtled down after him as he descended! This wasn’t just a story to tell, Helstrup captured the event in his camera to show the world. The video taken was the first ever video of a meteorite traveling the air after its flame has gone out!
6. Frane Selak Well, cheating death once or twice is exceptional. But escaping death seven times has to be a unique phenomenon. Frane Selar is the only person who has escaped death seven times. He first brushed death in 1962 while traveling in a train. The train flipped off the tracks and fell into a freezing river. Bystanders pulled him to shore and safety, with only broken arm hypothermia. While 17 other passengers drowned! A year later in 1963, during his first plane ride, the plane lost altitude and plummeted to the ground. And Frane was blown out of a malfunctioning plane door! He somehow managed to land on a haystack unharmed while 19 other passengers died in the crash. In the year 1966, he was riding a bus, that skid off the road and landed in the river. Four people drowned, but not Selak. He swam across to the bank with few light injuries. Two years later, in what was arguably the weirdest reasons for almost dying. While teaching his son how to hold a gun, he hadn’t realized that the safety was off. He ended up shooting himself in the testicles. Well he survived, the testicles did not. In 1970 and 1973 he got into accidents where the car ended up catching fire. He managed to get out of both predicaments unharmed. In 1995 he was hit by a bus but only suffered minor injuries. A year later he managed to avoid a head-on collision with United Nations truck on a mountain road. He swerved into a guardrail, smashing through it and Frane was thrown out of the car. He watched the car fall 300 feet deep ravine below. And to top his luck off in 2003, two days after his 73 rd birthday, Frane Selak won $ 1.1million from the Croatian National Lottery!

Tiger Woods Reminds Us Why Life Is So Fickle
Tiger Woods Arrested For DUI Charges In Florida
Sports stories are by far the most inspirational of all tales. From Roger Federer to Sachin Tendulkar—From Lionel Messi’s rise to fame to the brutal world domination of Michael Phelps. These stories inspire us and mold us. But if there ever has been a story sad story of a fall-from-grace in sports, it has to be that of Tiger Woods.
At one time, Tiger Woods was a name that broke boundaries—cutting across race and stigmas with his unnatural skills. For two decades Tiger Woods reigned over the golf world—undisputed for his titles. At the peak of his career, he had won 14 pro-major golf championships!
Tumblr media
All the glory achieved, was floundered away. After the rumors of his extramarital affair in 2009, every thing went downhill! From denying the affairs to publically accepting his infidelity, Tiger Woods was also involved in an accident as well. In the months following these events, Tiger Woods’ career suffered a major downfall. His wife left him, he lost major sponsor deals including—General Motors, AT&T and Gatorade.
And when he returned to pro golf, the world wasn’t the same. He wasn’t able to make any mark on any of the big series. His poor performance meant he lost his ranking which has been on a downtrend ever since! This year has been no different. He will not be able to play for most of the year because of a back injury.
This year has been no different for the golf legend whose comeback lasted just two events before he pulled out citing back problems. On 20th April, the 41-year-old announced that he had undergone his fourth back surgery since 2014 to alleviate back and leg pain. With six months needed to recover, Woods’ surgery meant that he would spend the rest of the year without playing any professional golf.
