They may be labeled as outcasts or rebels, but in reality, they're the ones who are brave enough to challenge the status quo and forge their own path. Let's celebrate the black sheep in our lives - the ones who inspire us to think differently, to question the norms, and to embrace our individuality.

SKILLED HUNTERS  SKILLED HUNTERS: Ute “Already skilled hunters, the Utes used the horse to become expert big game hunters. They began to roam further away from their home camps to hunt buffalo that migrated over the vast prairies east of their mountain homes, and explore the distant lands. The Utes began to depend upon the buffalo as a source for much of their items. It took only one buffalo to feed several families, and fewer hides were required to make structures and clothing. The Utes already had a reputation as defenders of their territories now became even fiercer warriors. Women and children were also fierce and were known to pick up a lance and defend their camps from attacking enemies.  Ute men were described by the Spanish as having fine physiques, able to withstand the harsh climate, and live off the land in sharp contrast to the European who often had to depend upon Native Americans and their knowledge about plants, animals and the environment.  They became

  In December 1984, a group of 3,000 beluga whales were trapped by ice in the Chukchi Sea, near Russia.   In December 1984, a group of 3,000 beluga whales were trapped by ice in the Chukchi Sea, near Russia.  The whales were confined to small open water ponds surrounded by thick, impassable ice up to 10 feet thick in some areas. Without access to larger areas of the ocean, the whales had difficulty breathing and were at risk of dying. To help rescue them, an icebreaker named Admiral Makarov was brought in by Kremlin which is equipped with a specially reinforced ice-breaking hull. The ship attempted to take the whales to safety by breaking the ice, but the belugas initially refused to follow. When the crew began playing classical music like Tchaikovsky over the ship's speakers, the whales finally began to follow the Makarov through the narrow open-water channel. This allowed 2,000 whales to reach the unfrozen ocean after a journey of almost 100 miles. The successful re

 In the heart of the great plains, where the buffalo roamed freely and the rivers flowed with life  In the heart of the great plains, where the buffalo roamed freely and the rivers flowed with life, there lived a tribe of Native Americans known as the Sans Arc Sioux. Among them was a wise and respected leader named Chief Spotted Eagle. Chief Spotted Eagle was known far and wide for his strength, wisdom, and unwavering commitment to his people. He had earned his name from the keen eyesight and sharp intuition that guided him through even the toughest of times. In the year of 1880, Chief Spotted Eagle stood tall and proud, his weathered face a testament to the many years he had spent leading his people. He wore his traditional clothing adorned with symbols and feathers, each one representing a story or a lesson from the past. The Sans Arc Sioux were a people deeply connected to the land and the spirits that dwelled within it. They lived in harmony with nature, respecting

THE WORLD'S FIRST ELECTRIC ROLLER COASTER     THE WORLD'S FIRST ELECTRIC ROLLER COASTER Granville T. Woods (April 23, 1856 – January 30, 1910) introduced the “Figure Eight,” the world's first electric roller coaster, in 1892 at Coney Island Amusement Park in New York.

 Images of Death in Syria, but No Proof of Chemical Attack Images of Death in Syria, but No Proof of Chemical Attack BEIRUT, Lebanon — Scores of men, women and children were killed outside Damascus on Wednesday in an attack marked by the telltale signs of chemical weapons: row after row of corpses without visible injury; hospitals flooded with victims, gasping for breath, trembling and staring ahead languidly; images of a gray cloud bursting over a neighborhood. But even with videos, witness accounts and testimonies by emergency medics, it was impossible to say for certain how many people had been killed and what exactly had killed them. The rebels blamed the government, the government denied involvement and Russia accused the rebels of staging the attack to implicate President Bashar al-Assad’s government. Images of death and chaos poured out of Syria after what may be the single deadliest attack in more than two years of civil war. Videos posted online showed

 The Holocaust     The Holocaust Anti-Semitism, or hostility toward Jewish people, began in Germany as far back as the ancient world. History has recorded Romans destroying Jewish temples and causing the Jewish people to flee from their homes in Palestine. During the 17th, 18th, and 19th Centuries the Jewish people were not discriminated against due to religious toleration. During the 20th Century, however, anti-Semitism became renewed and Jewish people were once again under harsh discrimination. During the 1930s and the 1940s, the holocaust definition began to represent a new and horrible situation that was taking place in Nazi Germany. What does the Holocaust mean? The Holocaust was the systematic state-sponsored mass killing of millions of Jews, Roma people (Gypsies), the intellectually disabled, and homosexuals by German forces under the cover of World War II. Adolf Hitler was the leader of the Nazi regime and the organizer of the Holocaust. Adolf Hitle

In 1941, Vitya Cherevichkin was shot by the Germans when they learned that he was hiding pigeons in his shed. The Nazi command issued an order to destroy all pigeons, as it was believed that the birds could be used to send messages. Vitya hid the birds for a week, but was seen releasing some pigeons. He was captured, interrogated and accused of aiding the Red Army. On the same day the Germans were knocked out of the city by a successful counter-offensive by units of the South-Western Front. A photograph of the murdered Vitya Cherevichkin holding a pigeon, taken by Soviet photojournalist M.V. Alpert, was among the photographic evidence at the Nuremberg trials that exposed Nazism for crimes against humanity.

Survivors in Dachau berate an SS guard captured by U.S. troops, while in the background American soldiers summarily execute other camp guards This picture was taken on April 29, 1945, the day of liberation at Dachau Concentration Camp.

Jennifer Lopez gets stuck in formation during Las Vegas performance Jennifer Lopez has fallen and she can’t get up. The 47-year-old singer needed a little help when she bent over backwards during a show at the Axis Theater inside Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas and couldn’t maneuver her way out of the position. Instead, backup dancers in glittery orange suits had to pull JLo to her feet on stage in a less than graceful break from the choreography. Backup dancers had to help the 47-year-old dancer off the floor. Her reps told the Daily News that the “dramatic knee slide” is part of the performance.
