Citizens in various countries around the world were asked by WIN/Gallup in their 2013 End of Year survey, “Which country do you think is the greatest threat to peace in the world today?” Above, the number one answer from each nation is represented by the flag flown over their country. Thanks to Joe Hammer on Youtube for making the map.

Katniss family was white...but more and more coal dust seeped into their skin. That's how they became darker. End of story.

The first recording of human voice
On 9th March 2008, historians have found what they believe is the first recording of a human voice. Predating Thomas Edison’s first phonograph recording of 1877. The “phonautograph”, created by etching soot-covered paper by Parisian inventor Edouard-Leon Scott de Martinville, was played by US scientists using a “virtual stylus” to read the lines. The recording was initially believed to be the voice of a woman or adolescent, but further research in 2009 suggested the playback speed had been too high and that it was actually the voice of Scott himself. This is the original recording.
