The Shores Resort in Daytona Beach Shores, Fl offers oceanside firepits and s’more roasting. Day or night, (for just $10) guests can go out back to the deck and sit around the campfire roasting marshmallows while telling ghost stories. Not to mention, the hotel is perched on “the World’s Most Famous Beach,” which is one of the only beach’s in the world where you have to look both ways before you cross the sand. That’s right, Daytona is one of the few beach’s that allows motorists to drive and park right on the sand.

Tanning Butlers

Nothing dampens a day at the beach quite like having to rub your own back with sunscreen. It’s too creamy, you get sand under your fingernails, and let’s not forget the hard to reach places. Fortunately, The Ritz-Carlton, South Beach in Miami has employed butlers to help customers with all their tanning needs. They provide oils, creams, and shade while patrolling the grounds and aiding the hotels guests with the tough spots. They even have holster that contain cool water misters and sunglass cleaners, according to ABC News.

Making an Entrance by Paragliding

If you happen to be a guest at Six Senses Zighy Bay in Oman, two hours from Dubai International Airport, be sure to arrive in style. A professional paraglider will help you swoop into the resort and make quite an arrival, flying from the top of Zighy Mountain, where a guest will be taken around the edge of the mountain range 293 meters above the ground. How’s that for thrill seeking?

On-Site Marijuana Concierge

CannaCamp, a Bud+Breakfast™ Mountain Resort is a Colorado lodge where guests can go hiking, rock-climbing, and zip lining, all while stoned. Because of Colorado’s laws allowing recreational marijuana use, CannaCamp has made a hotel novelty of smoking recreationally. While the hotel isn’t allowed to sell directly to customers, they have an off-site partner who can. The concierge will simply help guests pair strands with activities and meals. Apparently, there’s a weed for every need! And speaking of concierge…

Pillow Concierge

You know when you’re trying to dose off and you can’t seem to get comfortable. You feel fidgety, you toss and turn, and you can never find the cold side of the pillow. Well, New York City’s Benjamin Hotel can help find the right one for a guest’s sleep habits. The hotel offers a pillow menu and a bedtime concierge that will provide guests with a nightly snack and soothing massage.

Misting Guests with Evian Water

Las Ventanas al Paraíso in Los Cabos doesn’t spare a single expense when it comes to satisfying guests or their fitness needs. While offering a tennis court isn’t out of the ordinary, this hotel staff will sit on the sidelines while you play, handing guests a cold towel, wiping down their sunglasses, chasing after any pesky stray balls, and even spraying guests with mists of Evian water, ’cause nothing says luxury quite like being hosed down in Mexico with water from the French Alps.

Watch: There’s a Sport That Combines Surfing & Flying

Have you ever wanted to fly?

Of course you have. What kind of silly question is that? You can’t remember a time in your life when you looked at the ground and thought, “man, I’m so content with my boring feet stuck on this boring ground. Why would I ever want to feel weightlessness when I could just keep my feet firmly in the dirt?

And while humans have yet to truly fly, thrill-seekers are pushing the envelope and getting closer. Kiteboarding (also known as kitesurfing) is an extreme sport that combines wakeboarding, windsurfing, surfing, paragliding, and gymnastics into one heck of a super sport.

The possibilities are insane:

But it takes a lot of hard work to master these skills:

9 Reasons Why You Should Always Workout In The Morning

0

Image Credit: curtmercadante.com

Anyone who has skipped their morning workout, and promised themselves that they would do it later, knows all too well that later turns into never.

For this reason alone, in addition to many others, working out in the am has a ton of perks. Here are LifeDaily’s 9 Reasons Why You Should Workout In The AM:

1. You can accomplish absolutely nothing else the rest of the day and still feel accomplished

An am workout is a pretty nice feat, especially because it is not to easy to wake up extra early, and hop out of bed onto a treadmill, the gym, or do a workout dvd at home. We are all tempted to hit the snooze button many times before we actually get up, and I’m going to encourage you to avoid doing that, because if you get your am workout in, I promise you, you will feel like a million bucks!

2. You will want to eat healthy food afterwards and probably for the remainder of the day

You usually feel so good at the end of your workout, that you only want to refuel with good food. Even as the day goes on, you will find yourself more likely to healthier. You worked too hard during your am workout to ruin it by eating poorly, and you don’t even desire bad foods as much. While you may be hungrier, it’s only because your metabolism is speeding up.

3. You’ll have nothing to dread the rest of the day

Things only get better after you’ve worked out like an animal, and any annoyances you might deal with at work, won’t be as annoying anymore. Your am workout was probably the most physically difficult thing you’ll do all day, therefore there’s nothing worse to dread. Your workout will be done with, and it will be out of sight and out of mind- all that will be left is positive, and good feelings.

4. You’ll look better

Plain and simple, you will look better. You’ll be in better shape- your body will look better, your skin- everything. Not only will you feel amazing, but you will notice a difference in your body, even though it will take time and be gradual.

5. Your skin will naturally glow

Ever notice that after you workout, you feel flushed and healthy? I don’t know about you, but there’s no better way to walk into work than this. Your natural flush will make you vibrant, and you will radiate from the inside out.

6. You will burn more fat

A recent study suggests that you can burn up to 20 percent more body fat by exercising in the morning before your first meal. If you get a meal in early before you sit down at your desk, you will jump-start your metabolism which will keep your appetite under wraps for the rest of the day.

7. You’ll be more focused 

Your chances of getting distracted first thing in the morning are way lower than towards the middle of the day, and it’s a lot easier to focus on your workout when you are not being emailed and texted every five seconds.

8. Your social life will peak

You won’t be missing a beat after work when colleagues or friends ask you to go and grab drinks. Your workout will be completed, so you will be ready for any socializing that the day may bring. Your friends certainly won’t be bothering you to grab drinks at the crack of dawn during your workout, so you won’t be missing anything then.

9. You will feel great 

You’ll start your day in an awesome mood, even if you wake up on the wrong side of the bed. A morning workout will boost your endorphins, and will help you to feel great for the rest of the day.

What are you reasons for working out in the am? Please share in the comments below.

Japan’s ‘Silver Tsunami’ Sees Pensioners Overtake Teenage Crime

0

independent.co.uk

Yes. It’s true. Crime in Japan is higher among the country’s elderly than its teenage population.

Now, 1 in 5 prisoners in Japan’s jails are over the age of 60.

Between January and June, 23,656 people age 65 or older were subject to police action, compared to 19,670 people ages 14-19.

And apparently the Japanese elderly have been committing more and more crimes since 2003, because in 2013 the elderly crime rate has doubled!

What are these crimes they are committing you may ask?

Well, according to a government white paper from 2012, crimes included shoplifting by impoverished pensioners, and homicides according to police.

And this is the first time since 1989 that the elderly offenders have overtaken the young.

Now, the elderly subject to criminal investigations are more than 6 times what it was twenty years ago!

This surge in elderly crime primarily stems from bad economic conditions, and also Japan’s ‘silver tsunami‘ where the country’s aging and shrinking population has been a concern for a number of years.

Currently, over a quarter of the population is over 65.

And the Japanese elderly may commit minor offenses because of feelings of loneliness and isolation.

Koichi Hamai, a professor of criminology at Ryukoku University said:

“In prison, criminals can find companionship, food and good care, when outside, they may lack family or financial support.”

It’s very sad, but a reality.

Are You Smart Enough for This Simple Brain Teaser?

“Buffalo buffalo, Buffalo buffalo buffalo, buffalo Buffalo buffalo.”

Yup, believe it or not, that is a grammatically correct sentence. Don’t you just love English? (No, not really.) The sentence was first devised by Professor William J. Rapaport in 1972 to discuss the various meanings and parts of speech (and probably confuse those he meets at cocktail parties). Professor Rapaport studies computational linguists, as well as computer science, artificial intelligence, and mathematics. And guess where he studies all of this? You guessed it: The University at Buffalo.

So, what is the professor trying to tell us here (or at least confuse us about)? Well, it’s commonly known that “Buffalo” is a city in upstate New York, as well as another name for bison, a hairy ox-like animal with backswept horns. However, it’s not very commonly known that “buffalo” is a verb that means “to intimidate, bully, or overawe somebody.”

Image Credit: Giphy
Image Credit: Giphy

Still confused?

Buffalo is being used here as an adjective, verb, and noun. The sentence also includes an appositive phrase. Another way of looking at this sentence structure would be to say: Houston elephants, Houston elephants bully, bully [other] Houston elephants.

Let’s break it down for you. Remember back in 6th grade when you learned sentence diagramming? Of course, you don’t. You’re a millennial and they got rid of diagramming about thirty years ago. However, let’s say for the sake of argument that you went to Catholic school and you learned all about the lovely parts of speech. Then this diagram will mean something to you:

Image Credit: Quick and Dirty Tips
Image Credit: Quick and Dirty Tips

Without the added clause, the sentence would read something like, Buffalo bison bully Buffalo bison. However, as we know with most cases of bullying, the behavior is brought on by their own feelings of weakness. So, in this totally plausible reality, the bison that are doing the bullying, are already being bullied by other Buffalo bison. Hence, we have a bunch of bison ganging up on other bison and it’s all going down in Buffalo, New York. So, the next time somebody asks you if your know the buffalo brain teaser, make sure you diagram it out for them.

Hmm…suddenly I’m in the mood for Buffalo chicken wings:

The Shocking Moment a Man Finds a Dog Buried Alive

When Pedro Dinis took his own dog out for a walk on August 1 in Carrières-sur-Seine, a suburb just west of Paris, he made a shocking discovery. What looked like a dog sitting on dirt, turned out to be a 10-year-old French mastiff that had been abandoned and buried alive.

Dinis posted pictures of the dog on Facebook in order to raise more awareness about animal cruelty, and explained that when he found the dog “Only her head was visible and it was difficult to see given the amount of earth covering her.”

After realizing the dog was buried, Dinis immediately helped free the animal from the ground, and gave her fresh water.

After freeing the animal from the gravel and dirt, Dinis called emergency services and the dog was taken to a veterinary clinic. The dog’s life is no longer in danger, and she is said to make a full recovery.

The police were then able to locate the dog’s owner, who has been arrested in Carrières-sur-Seine, according to Le Parisien. The owner claimed the dog had escaped, but police found this theory to be highly improbable, as the dog is 10-years-old, and suffers from arthritis. The owner is said to be tried in March 2016 for animal cruelty and faces a two-year sentence as well as a $32,600 fine.

Can you believe that someone could be so cruel to this dog? Let us know in the comments below.

6 Things You Need to Understand About a Leo Before Dating One

0

Photo by cbs.umn.edu

Leos are known for their passion, and that zest for life is part of what makes a leo so attractive. We are intelligent, witty, and we command respect, yet we can also be extremely stubborn and dramatic. The one constant you should expect when dating a leo is that life will never be boring. As long as you can understand what makes us tick, you’ll be safe.

Here are six things you absolutely must understand before dating a leo:

Photo by voices.nationalgeographic.com
Photo by voices.nationalgeographic.com

6. We love to tease you.

To a leo, teasing is a sign of endearment. You can always tell if we like someone based on the amount we tease them. Teasing is a good thing, and if we’re not teasing you, it’s not a good sign. Try not to take these comments too seriously as we’re only trying to show affection.

5. We need space.

Leos are very independent, and are used to doing everything themselves. We have a hard time letting others into our alone time, so don’t be offended if your crush needs some space, especially in the beginning of a relationship. The key is to show interest without being clingy.

4. We can have big egos.

While we love to be independent and pride ourselves in being strong, we can also have big egos that are surprisingly fragile. Theres a fine line, but we need to feel independent without feeling neglected. Be sure to pay us compliments when deserved, and reassure us when we’re not feeling particularly confident. However being genuine is key as leos can spot a lie from a mile away, and false compliments will only make insult us.

3. We are sensitive.

Despite having big egos at times, we are actually quite sensitive and very attuned to tone. We might not tell you right away, but even the tiniest amount of disrespect or criticism will cut us to our core. In a disagreement it’s imperative to stay positive and calm. We always appreciate an apology, but can be to proud to accept it right away.

2. We are adventurous.

We love to be outdoors, exploring, and trying new things, so don’t take a leo on a typical (boring) date like dinner and a movie. Instead try to think of something creative, like going for a hike or maybe packing lunch for a sunset picnic. But be careful about activities where there will be a winner and a loser because leos have a competitive spirit, and are prone to being sore losers.

1. We are stubborn.

Of all the qualities you need to understand before dating a leo, our stubbornness is at the top of the list. We can be stubborn to a fault, and the more you try to push us to do something, the more we will resist. Our need to be independent can trump reason, and the sooner you learn this, the easier your life will be.

Helpless Elephants Trust Humans To Save Their Drowning Baby

Facebook- The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust

This poor baby elephant fell down and was about to drown!

Her family stood by in terror, but the mud was too slippery for them to get her out on their own.
The elephant was helpless, and the herd of elephants watched in panic.

Luckily for this little baby, the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust’s Voi Elephant Keepers received a call about the distressed elephant and immediately rushed to the scene to help.

But the elephants of the herd were upset about the drowning baby, and were ready to charge the Keepers at any moment if they feel they were a threat.
“The rescue proved extremely challenging with two wild elephant herds highly charged and remaining at the scene trying their level best to protect their baby, and by doing so inhibiting the rescue team from approaching,” The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust wrote on their Facebook page.
The Voi Elephant Keepers had to call for backup, and a vehicle arrived and sectioned off a safe area for the rescuers to approach.
They had to be extremely careful, and approach the baby elephant with caution. So they inched their way closer to the ditch where the baby fell, and used straps to pull the baby up to higher ground…

And then the tiny elephant was able to climb the rest of the way out on her own.

Immediately, the baby elephant rushed back to her family,who then surrounded her to keep her safe.

It was a beautiful thing to see that this herd of elephants trusted these men to save their precious baby, and we are glad she is safe!

5 Ways You’re Unintentionally Making Yourself Miserable

0
0

Photo by scdlifestyle.com

Everywhere we turn, we’re bombarded with people and images telling and showing us how to be perfect.  The trick, however, is that perfection is impossible, yet we continue to look for the perfect partner, get the perfect job, or have the perfect body. In the process, we’re making our lives miserable.

Take a look at these five ways you’re accidentally making yourself unhappy because sometimes you just need to be reminded that everything doesn’t have to be perfect.

5. You expect people to read your mind.

We constantly set expectations for how we want our lives to be, yet we often neglect to communicate those expectations. This sets up a pattern of failure because, let’s face it, no one can read your mind. Whether you’re upset that you didn’t get the raise you wanted, or you’re annoyed that your friend didn’t call, it might be time to think about how well you are communicating what you want. If you aren’t communicating with others about what you want or need, it’s unfair to expect that others will know what you want.

Once you start communicating more openly with the people in your life, you’ll be amazed at how many frustrations will fade away.

4. You don’t trust yourself.

When faced with a tough decision do you usually ask others what to do? Most people ask their friends and family what to do, and while it’s completely normal to get input on a situation, the reality is everyone has motives and those motives might not align with your goals. Instead of feeling pressured and persuaded into something you know isn’t right, listen to your intuition. The more you trust yourself to make decisions the better in tune you’ll be with your intuition.

In every situation, you’re presented with decisions, and next time ask yourself which option brings you closer to achieving your goals.

3. You’re waiting for Prince Charming.

There’s a difference between having high standards and having impossible standards, and if you’re waiting around for Prince Charming to whisk you off your feet, you’ll be waiting a while. And while you’re waiting, you’ll have missed out on the incredibly kind, caring person just because they aren’t tall, tan, or successful.

You should never settle for someone who treats you poorly, but if you can’t seem to find a girlfriend/boyfriend it might be time to examine your expectations and stop blaming yourself for not attracting the perfect mate.

2. You freak out when things don’t go according to plan.

Things have a way of going wrong at the worst possible times, but it’s important to recognize that you have no control over those things. What you do have control over is how you handle those situations. Sure it’s natural to get upset, but if you let car braking down or waking up with a pimple on your forehead ruin your day, you’ll never be happy.

Once you accept that life doesn’t look like an Instagram feed, you’ll feel liberated and maybe you’ll even be able to find the humor in these daily annoyances.

1. You expect your body to be perfect.

All too often we set unrealistic goals for how our bodies should look. We think that these ‘imperfections’ stand in the way of loving ourselves, but really we’re the only thing in the way. Even if you do manage to lose those last 10 pounds, it won’t be long until you fund other things to fix. Once you come to terms with the fact that your body will never be ‘perfect’, you can stop making yourself hate your body and start appreciating all the incredible things your body does for you.

Are you accidentally making any of these mistakes in your life?

Kai Can’t Figure Out Why The Stick Won’t Budge

Poor Kai can’t figure out why the stick weighs so much.

It must be difficult being a dog, sometimes. You have to beg for scraps from the dinner table, pee outside, and bear the confusion of the irrational weight of a stick. Kai is a poochie that starred in his own viral video thanks to a youtuber.

While Kai may be blissfully unaware that the entire internet is laughing at his lack of reason, he also lacks a basic understanding of the properties of trees. “You can’t get that. It’s a tree root,” his owner attempts to tell him, but Kai won’t have it.

His owner lets him struggle for a few minutes while Kai desperately attempts to pick up the root of a tree with his mouth. He growls and moans and begs, but the stubbord thing won’t budge. The poor doggie is probably still wondering why that darn root weighed so much.

see how Kai’s struggle went down:

Prankster Dad Turns His House Into a Giant Ball Pit

Youtube- RomanAtwood

Imagine coming home from work, and finding your house turned into a plastic ball pit?

Most of us will probably say no, because we can never imagine this happening to us.

In fact, it has never happened to anyone before, or at least not as elaborate as it has to Roman Atwood’s girlfriend Brittney.

Roman Atwood is a YouTube prankster who filled his house with about 250,000 colored balls to shock the socks of of his Brittney when she got home.

He shows the phone call with her, and then shows exactly what happened when she went to open the door of the house.

Basically a ton of plastic balls flew out of the door, and Brittney almost fell over.

When she walked into the house though, her reaction was absolutely amazing as she saw her kids playing so happily.

She could probably tell it was a dream for them!

World’s First: Woman Dances With Tiger Sharks

Sean Heinrichs- Geoff Robinson Photography

These amazing photos and video show daredevil model swimming with 16ft killer sharks, in a bikini and with no diving equipment!

At first you may be thinking “Is this woman crazy?”

But she has a purpose for doing this..

Her name is Hannah Fraser, and she is a marine conservationist, and also the world’s most celebrated “mermaid” and underwater model.

Hannah travels the world performing for charity projects to bring awareness to the ocean and its precious animal life.

As part of her latest project, Hannah risked her life as she danced with tiger sharks off the coast of the Bahamas in an effort to show the animals’ true nature and bring awareness to shark culling currently going on in Australia.

The Western Australian shark cull is the common term for a state government policy of capturing and killing large sharks in the vicinity of swimming beaches by use of baited drum lines.

Hannah was armed with absolutely nothing- not even diving equipment, and she dove 50ft into the Atlantic Ocean to swim with a shoal of the most dangerous sharks in the world- Tiger sharks.

Inches away from 15-foot Tiger sharks, Hannah gracefully brushes their fins and moves with such ease and grace that you would never think that she was surrounded by the top predators of the ocean.

Emmy award-winning cinematographer Shawn Heinrichs shot Hannah dancing at the bottom of the seabed, and she knew she had to keep in constant motion in order to stop the sharks from eating her alive.

The whole process took 5 days to shoot, and is part of an upcoming documentary series called Tears of a Mermaid, and the short video so far was released and edited while the team were all still aboard the boat.

The Pay-It-Forward Pizza Shop Will Move You To Tears

image Credit: ABC News

Paying it forward is a social movement that has been gaining popularity the past decade.

I’m sure you’ve heard of it. When somebody does a nice thing for you, you extend the gesture to somebody else, distributing good karma in the world and throwing out the bad. Well, Rosa’s Fresh Pizza, a Philadelphia pizza shop, has turned the act of paying it forward into a strategy to feed the homeless (and get national attention).

Here’s how it works:

About a year and a half ago, a customer came into the pizza shop and asked owner Masson Waterman if he could buy a slice ahead of time. The next time a homeless person had come in looking for food, that money would be used for that person in need. Inspired by the idea, Waterson used that dollar to buy a stack of sticky notes and began asking customers to donate a dollar and write a message on a sticky. The pay-it-forward pizza program would be a way of making sure people in need always have a hot slice when they need it.

Did you know the the BGs “Stayin’ Alive” matches the beat at which you’re supposed to conduct CPR?

Coincidence? (Yeah, probably, if we’re being honest here.)

The British Heart Foundation made a short starring actor, professional soccer player, and all-around tough guy Vinnie Jones to show how to properly conduct CPR and make sure that a distressed individual is indeed staying alive. There’s only three simple steps to the whole process.

First, you call 9-1-1:

Maybe we should just let Vinnie explain:

On an unrelated note, the only other song that matches the beat of CPR is Queen’s Another One Bites The Dust. If you ever find yourself in a position to save a life, I recommend you avoid the urge to sing Queen’s classic as you pump. Just a little food for thought, courtesy of Life Daily.

Are You In On The ‘Hun Bun’ Trend?

hun bun

2015 will forever be remembered as the year of the bun.

First, we had the messy bun. Then we had the man bun. Now, we’re seeing the “hun bun.” I first came across this style on a gloomy Tuesday afternoon as I sat in a coffee shop writing my usual pieces about style, celebrities, and social trends. I saw an interesting piece about a new hair trend, currently being dubbed the “hun bun,” that combines the half-up look from childhood with a messy bun.
“Crap,” I said after reading an article about it. I instinctively reached up and touched the top of my head where I felt a knot of hair tied above he rest of my limp locks in a perfect hun bun. “I really thought I invented this one,” I said.
Yup, I’ve been wearing my hair in a hun for the past month, and this whole time I thought I started it. Apparently, as the internet often proves, I did not invent this. (I hate to sound like a hipster here, but seriously, I’ve been wearing my hair like this since before it was cool.)

The hun bun is the new mullet.

Much to my chagrin, the style has been catching on for over a year now and it’s a pretty cool look. It combines all the laid-back ease of a bun, with all the quirkiness of a mullet. Instead of having business in the front and party in the back, the hun is composed of messiness in the front and different messiness in the back. It’s easy, fun, and best of all, it’s hard to screw up.

It was only a matter of time before weed distributors began to adopt the personalized mentality of crafting the product to the desires of the customer.

Drug dealers have been dabbling with this for years, telling stoners things like, “it’s a totally mellow high.” However, Colorado-based Ebbu, is researching what goes into making that high “like totally mellow, man,” and then bottling it for the customer.

Ebbu is a consumer products company that wants to have a hand in pharmaceuticals as well as intellectual property.

And they’re targeting potheads. 

Want to get your creative juices flowing? Ebbu has a strain of cannibis for that. Want to calm down and just chill for a while? Yup, Ebbu has you covered there too.

With products like “chill” “energy” and “giggle,” Ebbu wants to have the next big thing in the weed business. They are currently testing ways in which they can tailor a high to a specific desire by dissecting and analyzing the components of marijuana plants. They’re also getting their test subjects really high in the process.

This little boy trying to break a board and obtain his white belt in Taekwondo Class is one of the cutest things you will ever see.

It’s the little boy’s turn, and the instructor tells him to use one foot to break apart the two boards.

This boy is really excited, and you can tell he’s in it to win it, so what do you think he does?

Well, he does what any really excited kid would do and he jumps with two feet on top of the board, thinking that it will break it.

When it doesn’t, the instructor says:

“No, no. You will not obtain your white belt this way.”

So he allows the little boy to try again, and it doesn’t end here. The boy proceeds to do more hysterically adorable things that he is not supposed to do.

Take a look at his silly antics, and see if he winds up earning his white belt!
