First of all, did you know you canmarinate those guys? What youll get is a super-flavorful frank, with a sweet and spicy glaze. Once theyre flavor-blasted, youre going to want tospiral-cut that sucker. Speaking of toppings, they frankly are one of the most exciting aspects of wiener culinary arts....

Especially peculiar is the size of the playing field and the length of play. Shrovetide ball games have been played in England since at least the 12th century. Photo credit:Christopher Furlong/The Guardian The game is played between Up’Ards and the Down’Ards. The Up’Ards are those town members born north of the town, while Down’Ards are those born south. The game starts each day at 2 pm and last until 10 pm....

But many of the priciest medications are available for free if you have a coupon. Theyre giving up that smidge of profit to be able to charge your insurance company for the rest. Heres whats going on. So the patient gets these drugs for free, and the insurance company pays. The drug company, of course, advertises to the patient. This is a no-win game. But private insurers cant fall back on that law....

I still use plain text for just about everything, but never thought much aboutwhyI do. Weve talked about thevalue of plain text to-do lists before. The short of it is simple: any computer can read plain, simple text. Plain Text Forces Me to Keep Things Simple I love organizing things. I love formatting things. I love outlining, keywording, and listing things. Give me multiple notebooks for my notes and Ill give you days of my life building an organization system....

I have more things than I need. Over the last several years, Ive made a conscious effort to pare down my possessions. Why is it so difficult to get rid of stuff? This post originally appeared onThe Simple Dollar. Most of the stuff I consider mine would fit into one room in our house. I still have far more things than I need. Why do I say that? First of all, we need to look atwhyexactly I have these things to begin with....

Special care was taken in its construction and security. Some of the walls of the bunkers were 2 meters thick. Photo credit:tomasz przechlewski/Flickr We had to eat it all up. Unfortunately, a fellow German officer unwittingly pushed the briefcase away deflecting the blast away from Hitler. The Fuhrer survived with only minor injuries. The complex was eventually blown up in January 1945. Even then, the buildings were only partially destroyed....

The room is outfitted with the same furniture, the same bedspread and the same haphazard arrangement of paintings. The best part is that the room is actually available for rent throughAirBnbat just $10/night. The three paintings are mostly identical yet distinct and unique from each other.

And thats exactly what this street is famous for kissing. El Callejon del Beso itself means the alley of the kiss. It is said that couples who kiss each other on the third step are guaranteed fifteen years of happiness. Unbeknown to either family, the couple would meet late at night and kissed over the narrow alley. As fate would have it, the couple’s secret nightly liaisons were discovered by the girls father....

No one wants to think theyre bad at dating. Weespeciallydont want to think were the bad one in a failed relationship. Fortunately, I made too many mistakes to ignore. Here are the things I learned about relationships, mostly by screwing them up first. Make a list and look for someone who checks off every single box. In my early high school years, I didnt really understand this. The first few times I was rejected, I wasnt prepared for it....

The canyon was formed by water erosion millions of years ago when this region was submerged under the ocean. Its almost 800 meters long and flanked by walls 40 meters high. The canyon is easy to reach and its short length makes it perfect for hiking.

Lake Erie may be shallow (just 20 meters deep on average) but it isnt small. Around this time of the year the lake is at its most violent. The wind lashes at 50 km per hour and temperature plunges below zero. If the waves become too rough, he retreats to the shore and shoots with a long lens. Oceans and lakes beckon me. Since I was a kid, Ive loved to be on, in or around water....

Theres a common misconception that everything in life comes down to time. Every day I find myself slipping into these same statements:If only I had more time. I just need a few extra minutes. A couple hours of work.Yet it feels like were all working longer hours without getting more done. This post originally appeared on theCrew blog. We believe that everything we want can be achieved if only we hadmore time....

Niagara Falls consists of Horseshoe Falls and the American Falls. The woman was wearing a gold band, with the tragic inscription forget me not on the inside. Pipes totaling 800 feet of length and approximately six inch diameter were laid to moisten the shale. As is well said, that change is inevitable, and so is the mere existence of everything.
