Macedonians invented the first submarine?!
It is a little known fact that the ancient Macedonians were pioneers in protected underwater diving, i.e. they were the first people (for which there are records) that made some kind of a submarine. The first protected underwater diving attempts were performed using a large glass bell which used a rope to be lowered to the seabed. Inside the bell was the diver, who enjoyed the sight under water through the walls of the bell. The bell had a continuous flow of air. Certainly in this way the submarine could not reach great depths, but at the time of antiquities, it is still considered as an interesting discovery.
More researchers on the history of protected underwater diving mention Macedonians as pioneers of such diving. Thus, for...

Shark tattoo on an amputated hand

1912 - First Balkan War
First Balkan War erupted in October 1912, in which Serbia, Montenegro and Bulgaria fought against the Ottoman Empire, in a coalition called "The Balkan League". The war ended with an armistice on December 3rd the same year. At the Peace Conference in London, May 30th 1913, Turkey had to give up all possessions in Europe, apart from Edirne, which the allies managed to take but failed to hold under their authority. Macedonian people took an active part in the war, fighting with expectation for freedom and independence. But instead, the Allies divided Macedonia, which, in turn, due to "inadequate separation" was the reason for the beginning of the Second Balkan War.
At the same time, Italy sends it's own troops in Libya and several islands...

Cro-Cop on Blake's dirty move
The main fight of the K-1 event in Tokyo had a very disputable situation - Blake hitting Mirko Cro-Cop in a situation when the Croatian fighter reached his hand as a sign of apology.
Red corner jumped a minute before the end of the third round when the American fighter Randy Blake gave Mirko a "cheap" hit after he offered an apology for the punch he was going to make, but in the end he didn't.
However, although the Croatian fans reacted extremely sharp, like most around the world, "bad blood" between Mirko and Blake doesn't exist. They met in the hallway right after the fight and they even photographed together.
"I turned away from him and I wanted to give him a friendly hand, and he hit me. He made a good clean hit in the chin. I was...

After four years of absence, Cro Cop enjoys divine status in Japan
Croats and Japanese have so little in common. Maybe it's even better to say nothing except that Mirko Filipovic is a hero to both nations. In Croatia he is one of the icons of sports scene, and in Japan is practically a deity. Although he didn't fought for four years in the Land of the Rising Sun, most Japanese will bow down to the floor even if you only mention his left hand, and in their eyes you will see the passion that has not disappeared despite the huge crisis that hit the combat sport in this country.
If you are a Croat, the first thing you'll face at the same minute you enter Japan is - Aaaa Mirko Cro Cop!, with gesticulations matching those of Mirko, which shows the love and respect they cherish for him. The legend lives...

Tour de France - TOUR DE DOPING
ASTOUNDING FACT!
In the last 15 years, astonishing 12 times the title was deprived from the winner of the Tour de France. Even one-third of all competitors in the Tour de France from 1998 to 2012 took "candies" and only in the last edition is (still) not detected any rider among the top 10 that used banned substances. The greatest disappointment in this statistics is the name of the legend - Lance Armstrong, who admitted the charges of the US doping agency one month ago.

Tattooed cross on forehead protected women from abduction
"Tattooed cross protects women. Christian women from Macedonia, marked with a cross between the eyes."
"The Turks are disgusted by the cross."
Due to the self-sacrifice of the Savior Jesus Christ, who with this act redeemed the world from sin, in Christian doctrine, among other things, the cross becomes a symbol of salvation. In Macedonia, which is mentioned several times in the Bible, the role of the cross during the five-century Ottoman period is more than just symbolic.
U.S. newspaper "The St. Louis Republic", in an article from the April 5, 1903, writes about the cross as the savior of Macedonian women:
"Tattooed cross protects women. Christian women from Macedonia, marked with a cross between the eyes." According to...

Messi and C.Ronaldo are payed poorly?
Despite the fact that football is "the world's most important side issue", that is slowly but surely becoming more business than sport, players are far behind their colleagues in other sports in terms of salaries. Just don't show this article to Cristiano Ronaldo.
After Cristiano Ronaldo said last month that he was sad, Spanish media have speculated that the reason for his sadness is small salary. He is one of the best players on the planet, but even nine other players have higher salary than him.
In what kind of a depression will he fall if he finds out that his salary is equal to that of the 52nd best paid baseball player of the MLB league?
Cristiano Ronaldo's salary in Real Madrid is about $13 million per year, and it's a minimal compared...

Morning rituals of champions - urine instead of coffee
Trainers and doctors say that diet is one of the most important factors for good shape, but some athletes don't agree with this. This are the strangest ways of nutrition among athletes.

Among other things, it includes eating 8 eggs and three chocolate pancakes for breakfast, he eats pasta and two large sandwiches with ham, cheese and mayonnaise for lunch and eating one pound of pasta and pizza for dinner.

USA will bankrupt before Europe?
In the past three years, Americans have managed to convince us that the crisis is over, but not in Europe.
While Europe, with many troubles established the first elements of proficiency corresponding with the globalized world and began to control its public debt, they do not want to admit that the weakness of American democracy enable to increase the level of spending and public revenues suddenly to fall at unprecedented level.
Situation that the next president will face, who ever that would be, will be daunting.
At first glance, all is well on the opposite side of the Atlantic Ocean: Silicon Valley continues to be the leading place in world creativity. New York is still the most fascinating city in the world. American film continues...
