The 7,000-Car Secret: Brunei’s Lost Automotive Empire By Titan007

 There are car collections… and then there is Brunei. Hidden behind locked gates near the tropical coastline of Southeast Asia sits what may be the most excessive, controversial, and tragic automotive collection ever assembled. Not a museum. Not a curated gallery. But thousands upon thousands of cars—many never driven, some never seen by the public, and a shocking number built specifically for one family that treated the world’s greatest manufacturers like private artisans. This is the story of power, money, obsession—and decay. The Collectors Behind the Curtain At the center of this saga are two men: Prince Jefri Bolkiah , the former Finance Minister of Brunei, and his brother, Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah , one of the longest-ruling monarchs in the world. During the oil-fueled boom years, Brunei was drowning in wealth. And Prince Jefri spent it like no one else on Earth. Private jets. Palaces. Art. Yachts. And above all—cars. By the mid-1990s, Prince Jefri had quietly amassed an estim...

Healthy food that can cause health problems

-

 Many products can improve health, but there are also healthy foods that can cause certain health problems…


Potatoes



Although not always healthy food, potatoes are very healthy. It contains over 20 percent of the daily value of vitamins C, B6, and potassium. However, some people are sensitive to vegetables, including potatoes, which contain alkaloids that can affect muscle and nerve function.

Broccoli


This type of vegetable is very healthy and is considered to be a great protector against cancer. For most people, broccoli is a great source of vitamins C and K, but people with thyroid problems should be careful when eating this vegetable, as it can cause an enlarged thyroid gland.

Bananas



They are a great source of potassium and vitamin B6, but some people are allergic to them. Symptoms of an allergic reaction include shortness of breath, tingling in the mouth, and swelling of the throat.

Spinach



It is rich in vitamins K, A, iron, and protein. Unfortunately, spinach also contains oxalates, which are harmful to people with kidney disease.


Chicken


An excellent source of protein and vitamin B13, however, people with gout should limit their consumption of this and other meats, as it contains high levels of purine.

Unfaithful 2002

My dear, the pace of the film is perfect. We found out about Connie and Edward's life before meeting Paul. The two have a beloved son, Charlie, who adds a lot of humor to the film, but in the wrong way. After the case begins, we see that Connie's feelings go from excitement to complete disgust. And of course Edward inevitably discovers. His reaction is the least interesting and perhaps very sincere. The acting is great, especially Diane Lane. The sex scenes are quite awake and I found myself uncomfortable at specific times, but it's interesting to see how different sex was with the therapist and sex with my wife. And in that sense, the "unbeliever" is wonderful! Watch the world slowly turn its head down and split into pieces around these two people based ONLY ONLY (the first scene in front of his apartment: Should he come in? Should he come? One? choice, a moment in time. a world of difference). Based on the choices, the drama begins to build, until at the ...

Where Are the Most Beautiful Women in the World? (A Thoughtful Take) by Titan007

-

 Beauty is a conversation that never ends. With 195 countries on the planet and billions of unique faces, bodies, styles, and personalities, the idea of “the most beautiful women” is naturally subjective. What one person finds stunning, another might simply find interesting; what one era celebrates, another era challenges. Still, curiosity persists. We notice patterns—cultural aesthetics, skincare traditions, fitness habits, fashion sensibilities, and the way confidence radiates differently around the globe. So let’s explore the spirit of the original question with care and respect. Instead of declaring a definitive ranking (which would miss the point), we’ll look at ten countries often celebrated for women whose style, presence, and charisma frequently capture the world’s attention. Think of this as a guided tour through beauty cultures—how women present themselves, what local traditions emphasize, and the traits many admire. And remember: beauty can’t be boxed in. It is as much a...

Christmas Trees: How a Winter Evergreen Became the World’s Favorite Holiday Icon Written by Titan007

 Walk into almost any city in December, and you’ll spot it instantly: an evergreen dressed in lights, ornaments, and nostalgia—standing in living rooms, town squares, shopping centers, and cathedral plazas. The Christmas tree feels timeless, like it’s always been part of the season… but the tradition had to grow into what it is today. So where did it actually start—and how did it go global? The modern Christmas tree didn’t begin “everywhere.” The version we recognize today took shape in Central Europe and the Baltic region , especially areas tied historically to Germany and Livonia (modern Latvia/Estonia).  From there, it spread through faith, fashion, migration, and media—slowly transforming from a regional custom into a worldwide symbol. Before the baubles: the “Paradise tree” storyline One of the strongest “predecessor” traditions points to medieval religious plays—especially those performed on December 24 , associated in many places with the commemoration of Adam and Eve...
