Unlocking the Mystery: A Comprehensive Guide to Riddles
Kids having fun with riddles


 Riddles have been a popular form of entertainment and mental exercise for centuries. They challenge our minds and bring us a sense of joy and satisfaction when we are able to solve them. Whether you are a seasoned riddle solver or new to the game, "Riddle Me This: A Collection of Challenging Riddles for All Ages" has something for everyone.

The beauty of riddles lies in their simplicity and complexity at the same time. A good riddle should be short, but also leave a lasting impression. It should be easy to understand, but not necessarily easy to solve. In this article, we will explore the history of riddles, their role in different cultures, and some tips for writing and solving riddles.

The history of riddles can be traced back to ancient civilizations such as the Greeks, Romans, and Egyptians. Riddles were often used in folklore and mythology, and were seen as a way to test one's intelligence and wit. In ancient Greece, riddles were considered an important part of education and were used as a tool for teaching logic and critical thinking skills.

Riddles have also played a significant role in various cultures throughout history. For example, in medieval Europe, riddles were used as a form of entertainment at feasts and festivals. They were also used as a tool for spreading cultural values and beliefs. In Africa, riddles were used as a way to teach children about their history, culture, and traditions.

Nowadays, riddles continue to be a popular form of entertainment and mental exercise. With the rise of technology and the internet, riddles have become even more accessible and widespread. Online forums, riddle websites, and mobile apps offer a wide range of riddles for all ages and skill levels.

So, how do we write a good riddle? The key to writing a good riddle is to think outside the box. Riddles can be about anything, from objects and animals to concepts and ideas. When writing a riddle, consider the structure and the rhythm of the words. A good riddle should be easy to understand, but also have a twist that will challenge the reader.

Here are some tips for writing riddles:

  1. Keep it simple: A good riddle should be easy to understand. Avoid using complex vocabulary or convoluted sentence structures.

  2. Think creatively: Riddles can be about anything, so let your imagination run wild. Consider writing riddles about things that are not typically the subject of riddles.

  3. Use puns and wordplay: Puns and wordplay are a great way to add humor and interest to a riddle. Try to include a play on words in your riddle to make it more challenging and fun.

  4. Consider the audience: When writing a riddle, consider the age and skill level of your audience. Make sure the riddle is appropriate for their level of understanding.

Solving riddles can be just as much fun as writing them. To solve a riddle, you need to think creatively and critically. Here are some tips for solving riddles:

  1. Read the riddle carefully: Make sure you understand the words and the structure of the riddle before trying to solve it.

  2. Look for patterns: Look for patterns in the words and structure of the riddle. This can help you identify the answer.

  3. Think outside the box: Sometimes, the answer to a riddle is not what you would expect. Don't be afraid to think creatively and consider unconventional answers.

  4. Consider the audience: Consider the age and skill level of the intended audience when solving a riddle.

In this article, we'll take a look at some of the most intriguing unsolved mysteries that continue to confound and fascinate us.

  1. The Oak Island Treasure

    One of the most famous unsolved mysteries is the Oak Island Treasure, which has been the subject of speculation and fascination for over 200 years. The mystery surrounds a small island off the coast of Nova Scotia, Canada, where a mysterious pit filled with booby traps was discovered in 1795. Since then, countless expeditions have been launched in an attempt to uncover the treasure said to be buried there, but none have been successful.

Mysterious Photos that still can't be Explained

March 02, 2018 0
Mysterious Photos that still can't be Explained
Every picture has a story.

Well, some of these stories are only interesting to your friends or family.

Some images gave birth to endless discussions and made history. They were taken by ordinary people and certainly weren't edited.

Perception 9 collected historical photos that look like fantastic movie shots.

You will see evidence of time travel, ghost photos and pyramids on the moon.

1. A monster off the coast of Hook Island




Do you believe monsters like the famous Scottish Nessie are real?

Or do you prefer to think they only live in our imagination?

In any case, it looks like one of them was caught on camera in Australia years ago.

Many people on the internet believe this picture was photoshopped. However, it was taken long before Photoshop was created. In 1965, the photographer Robert Le Serrec noticed a suspicious object near Hook island in Australia. He immediately took a photo of the monster which is still the subject of zoologist discussions.

2. Hessdalen Valley Lights




This shot was taken by a Norwegian photographer with a 30-second exposure. It isn't the only evidence of the existence of strange luminous objects flying over the Hessdalen valley in central Norway.

People living in the valley first noticed and reported these strange lights in 1981. Spectral analysis shows that this object consists of silicon, iron, and scandium. Scientists still have many questions about it.

What are these lights? Are they dangerous to humans? Can they become a new energy source?

Let's see if we can get these questions answered since observations of the lights continue.

3. Black Knight




This unidentified object was first captured by an artificial satellite in 1960. NASA specialists immediately named it Black Knight. Since then, the mysterious object keeps appearing and disappearing from the Earth's orbit.

There is a whole satellite conspiracy theory about it. It says the aliens are spying on us using this aircraft. Scientists say this is a fragment of artificial origin.

Well, the alien version sounds pretty cool, doesn't it?

4. Babushka Lady




On November 22, 1963, the American President John Kennedy was shot dead in Dallas. There are still many unanswered questions connected with this assassination.

One of them has to do with a mysterious woman holding a camera in one hand. She was caught on camera by some photographers. The woman was wearing a headscarf in an old Russian lady's manner. So she was nicknamed Babushka Lady. Special services were trying to find her for a long time since she may have captured the president's assassination on camera. However, all attempts to establish her identity were unsuccessful.

Who was she? Why did she choose to disappear from the public eye?

We have no answers to these questions.


5. The Falling Man




This shot was taken by photographer Richard Drew on the day of the terrorist attack on September 11th. The photo of the falling man went viral and made it to many new sources worldwide in a matter of hours.

The body position of the man in the picture was considered strange by many people since he was falling almost straightened up which is extremely difficult to do. The identity of the man in the photo is still a mystery. Although, many Americans claim they recognized their relative in this picture. The picture became very popular and the Discovery Channel even filmed a documentary about it in 2007.

6. Tank Man




Every war has its unknown heroes and so does every riot.

This photo was taken in Beijing during the riots of 1989. In Tiananmen Square, an unknown young man held up the columns of Tanks for half an hour blocking the way with his body. It's still a mystery who that man was or what happened to him after. Some people believe he was executed a few days later for taking part in the protest. Some sources say he's still alive.

In fact, he may not have been the only protester standing in tanks way that day. But this very picture became the symbol of Tiananmen Square events and one of the most famous photographs of the 20th century.

7. A Cell Phone in Chaplin's Movie




We all loved some good old black-and-white movies, don't we? Especially when it comes to movies with Charlie Chaplin in them.

In 2010, a DVD with bonus frames from the filming of Charlie Chaplin's movie The Circus was released. One of the frames shows a woman holding something very similar to a modern cellphone. Director George Clark claimed he found these frames to be proof of time travel. Many skeptics are sure this shot is just a dull marketing hook.

But wouldn't it be awesome if time-travel existed?

8. An astronaut from Solway Firth




This picture might look like an average happy child in a summer field photo. If you give it a second chance, however, you will see why it made it to our selection of mysterious pictures.

In 1964, Jim Templeton took a photo of his five-year-old daughter in the countryside. Jim and his wife said they noticed something unusual in the air that day. Something like an electric charge. A few days later, when the film was developed, it was clear. There was something extraordinary about the shot. A figure of a man wearing a silver spacesuit is clearly seen in the background.

It came as a huge surprise to the family who denied the presence of that man or any other man in the field. Neither the police nor Kodak experts who were informed about the situation could solve the mystery of the picture of the spaceman who photobombs the Templeton.

9. Sir Goddard'sSsquadron




There is one strange photograph in the photo album of Sir Goddard's squadron who fought in the First World War.

If you look closely at the back row of soldiers, you'll see an extra face behind the fourth soldier on the left. It is the reason this picture became so incredibly popular and a topic of many discussions. The person with a ghostly face is Freddy Jackson who died two days before the picture was taken. Apparently, he decided to be in the group picture anyway even though it was taken exactly on the day of his funeral. You can believe this story or be skeptical about but there are people out there who do research on ghost photos and find it possible for a human spirit to be caught on camera.

10. Pyramids on the Moon




This picture was taken during the mission Apollo 17. It was the last mission NASA sent to the moon.

In December 1972, astronauts were actively taking pictures using Hasselblad cameras during the mission. Some of them were just good material for space exploration science but one turned out to be unique. It might look like an average overexposed photo and it was first listed as such in the archives.

However, if you take a second closer look, you will find something amazing about it. You will see outlines of two triangular structures looking very much like the Pyramids of Giza. What did these pyramids symbolize? Did the Egyptians travel to the moon to build them? Do aliens know a similar construction technology? Do King Tut and E.T. share the same birthday?

These questions have not yet been answered.

Unexplained Mysterious Events - Outer Space and Inside Our Earth

February 27, 2018 0
Unexplained Mysterious Events - Outer Space and Inside Our Earth
Each day the world gains evermore knowledge regarding the world and universe around us. But every now and then, something strange happens which we simply can't explain and then we feel like a bunch of stupid know nothing dummies.

For example, where are these mysterious space signals coming from?

Why did so many people die in 2017?

And how did the world's most unsinkable ship sink?

Is there a hidden truth behind the story of Jack and Rose?

Apparently, so as you'll find out now in this article of seven unexplained mysterious events.

1. Bursts from a dwarf




Since a number of mysterious and fast radio bursts, 18 to be precise have been detected by observatories around the world. And until recently, we had no idea where they were coming from.

One such burst was picked up in 2012 by the Arecibo Observatory and on this occasion, the burst which was later given the name FRB 121102 was broadcast not just once but repeatedly for the first time we've observed. These bursts flush only briefly and release as much energy in a microsecond as our Sun does over 10,000 years. And while we don't know what's causing them, we have traced where they're coming from, a dwarf galaxy 3 billion light-years from Earth.

Scientists have speculated many possible explanations for this strange phenomenon including stars going supernova or a magnetar collapsing into a black hole. But since the discovery of their origin was only announced in early by Cornell University, we may have to wait sometime before we find out the true purpose of these peculiar bursts from outer space.

2. The fading stars




In 2015, astronomers noticed that star KIC 8462852 also known as tabby's star, had begun to dim in brightness. And ever since we've been looking for an explanation as to exactly why it's doing this.

Theories put forward have ranged from black holes and broken planets through to alien megastructures built by a super advanced civilization. But as yet, we're still scratching our heads. And though science folks observing tabby's star might soon be in danger of scratching all the hair from there now bloodied scalps as the rate at which the star's brightness is dwindling has begun to inexplicably beat up causing even more confusion.

In December 2016, we found yet another celestial body exhibiting this strange behavior a young star called RIK-210 and Little Richard here has proven equally unwilling to give up its secrets.

3. The sinking of the Titanic




Now, you may not think that the sinking of the Titanic is all that mysterious.

It slammed into an iceberg and sunk to the bottom of the ocean. But in actual fact, there are plenty of unanswered questions regarding the fate of this supposedly unsinkable ship. And new evidence suggests that another undocumented event may have been the real reason 1500 people lost their lives.

A secret fire.

The Titanic is known to have hit an iceberg while running at almost top speed and while this event in itself is rather mysterious, the time it took the ship to sink afterward is even more perplexing. After its hall was breached, the Titanic went down quicker for decades nobody could explain why as its structural design meant it should have stayed afloat much longer.

But a recent documentary called Titanic - The New Evidence claims to know the answer.

The documentaries premise lay on photographs of the Titanic taken shortly before she sailed from Belfast. The photographs' scrutinized reveals scorch marks on the ship's starboard side where the Titanic supposedly made contact with the iceberg. The documentary claims the blaze took place within one of the ships coal bunkers before launch subsequently distorting and weakening the ship's bulkhead steel, and thus causing its eventual sinking when it's fragile hull bashed into a giant ice cube.

The pre-voyage fire was allegedly covered up by the owner for fear of embarrassing them and ruining the ship's maiden voyage.

4. Celebrity Deaths




As early as April, people were asking the question why have so many celebrities died in 2016 after David Bowie, Alan Rickman, and Prince naming only a few that snuffed it in the first four months.

And as the year went on, things only got worse.

Muhammad Ali, Jeane Wilder, both Star Wars icons Carrie Fisher and Kenny Baker, George Michaels, Queen Anne of Romania. Why did this happen and how can so many famous people die in just one year? And will this trend continue? That was not sure but the most plausible explanation seemed to indicate that 2017 will deliver us, even more, a list agony.

Many of those who died were part of the baby boomer generation born 1946 between 1964 and when a huge growth and population meant that proportionally more famous people would likely be born. But this generation is now reaching an age where cancer and heart disease become more likely and this factor combined with the rock-and-roll lifestyle of the rich and famous and the increased exposure of celebrities, thanks to the internet means that 2016 can be just the start of one big death spiral for the world of showbiz.

5. Mass animal deaths




In the past few years, there has been an alarming number of mass animal deaths with whole flocks of birds just dropping out of the sky. One-third of the world's Saiga antelopes dying off and all kinds of whales squid and bats just giving up and laying down for the Reaper.

In some of these cases such as with the Saiga antelopes, we have discovered an underlying cause of their extreme drop in numbers. But many other events remain entirely unexplained with a majority of unsolved animal deaths involving creatures from the sea.

In the first two months of 2016 alone, there were reported mass fish deaths and this theme continued throughout the year on a level that made the celebrity extinction event look like small potatoes. 20,000 fish lobsters and other marine life washed ashore at Nova Scotia in December 2016 with disease, toxins, and predators all ruled out.

So what exactly is to blame for all of these killings?

Is it us, humans?

Yeah, probably.

Time Travel Paradoxes - 4 Paradox of Time Travel That will Bend Your Mind

February 22, 2018 0
Time Travel Paradoxes - 4 Paradox of Time Travel That will Bend Your Mind
If one day we discover that traveling through time is as easy as moving left and right, forward and backward or up and down, then what ramifications would this have for our temporal existence?

At present, we live, we reproduce and we die. But if time travel were possible how might this sequence become jumbled?

Would there be any strange complications?

What are the paradoxes of time travel?


1. The Grandfather Paradox


Grandfather Paradox


The most commonly cited paradox involving time travel describes how you could erase yourself from existence by going back and killing your own grandfather. By doing this, you would remove the possibility of your even being born. But if that's the case, then, who came back to kill your grandpa? If you don't exist, you could never have traveled back in time. So, your grandpa must therefore live and go back to have a child who in turn produces you and we're back to the paradox once more.

Strangely, this paradox is solvable using nothing more than the original premise itself. Because cause and effect govern our universe. Any action you take in the past would have an impact on the timeline of the future from the very nanosecond you arrived. You would begin to affect your destiny in ways you could not control. Move a single atom one nanometer and you could change the course of Earth's history. Therefore, the moment you arrived in the past ready to settle your beef with Grandpa. You'd be instantly erased before you'd stepped out of your time machine. Let alone pulled the trigger.

Time-travel would basically reset the clock of reality to whichever point you travel to and this would happen every single time you went back.

Read More:



2. Memories




If you successfully managed to travel back through time, would you even know what you've done?

Let's say you're an average person with an average family, an average job and an average grasp on history. Right now, you can probably remember raising your kids and your first day at work. But what all of these memories be erased as soon as you arrived in the past?

These memories were created in a certain timeline. Our timeline, they did not occur in the timeline you now inhabit. So, is it even possible for these memories to travel through time with you and exists in the past? Or as your mind just had the factory reset button pushed? Alternatively, if your memories have endured a trip backward through time, then, surely you can use them to change your future. With your knowledge of the future, you can now make alterations to the way things panned out. Hate your kids? Just avoid ever meeting your partner or simply try for kids on a different day when a whole new set of sperms are competing for a shot at life. And your former children are left to die on a piece of dried-up tissue.

Solving this paradox is even weirder than the last one because if you can go backward in time and use the knowledge from the future to inform the past, then, all of human history should be one perfect utopia in the far future when mankind has a solution for every problem at nose-up. We could send this info back to the earliest days of man and prevent every war famine and fidgets spinor that ever came to be. But this creates a paradox similar to the first entry whereby if none of those grotesque things ever occurred, the conditions to enable our future utopia would never have existed either. Thankfully, the solution to this is to be found in yet another paradox, the Bootstrap paradox.

Read More:


3. The Bootstrap Paradox




The Bootstrap paradox describes a situation where a single object or piece of information is sent back in time only to become trapped in an infinite loop of cause and effect.

Imagine, if you went back 20 years and gave Dr. Dre the idea to charge 200 bucks for 10$ headphones by putting a sticker on them. Well, eventually Dre would steal this idea. Market Beats headphones on his own and earns a few hundred million. But eventually, Dr. Dre's timeline would reach the point where you decided to travel back in time and sell Dre his own idea unless the loop is complete and it goes on forever.

Who can truly be said to have invented Beats? Was it you? Was it Dre? Was it someone else?

The idea of Beats headphones can, therefore, be said to exist within an infinite loop with their origin unable to be proven. An even more incredible version of the bootstrap paradox can be found in the Robert Heinlein short story "All You Zombies". In this tale, an intersex male who is born as a female is deceived into going back in time to impregnate herself. As a result, that person could then be said to have no mother or father and no children either. This person is now a self-replicating being which exists within its own causal loop. And the reason this paradox seemingly solves the previous one is that such loops break off from traditional timelines existing in a loop reality of their very own.

If you're still confused, imagine, the analogy of a toy racetrack being built by a child. The child decides to build a normal track which is never-ending adding a new piece every day to allow the cars to continue moving. This is your normal timeline. However, one day he sends a car back to an earlier part of the track. When he does this, he creates a new path and the car heads off in a new direction. But as soon as this happens, the track behind it disappears preventing the car from returning to the original track. The car now exists on a looped track from which it cannot escape.

So, yeah, the solution to the time travel paradox is basically a NASCAR race.

Read More:


4. The Multiverse Paradox




One thing we've not yet discussed of time travel paradoxes is the existence of the multiverse. If an infinite or large number of parallel universes exist, then, how are they affected by time travel?

Well, one theory is that time travel may itself take place between multiple universes rather than traveling back through time within your own universe which could be impossible. You would actually be traveling to another universe similar to yours but at a different point in time. This would solve every paradox on the list as since you're now inside an entirely new timeline, you can kill all the grandfathers your heart desires or can you perhaps not. Because if you can time travel between universes and affect the future of another reality, surely, someone can do the same to your reality. At any moment, a time traveler from another universe could land in our timeline and wipe out everything we know today.

Theoretically, this means you could jump from one universe to another meaning that traveling back to your own universe is past would simply be a case of taking a detour through another universe on the way.

An alternative explanation which solves this paradox involves a similar solution to the bootstrap paradox except instead of creating a new loop reality, time travel merely creates another reality branched off from a point in the past. So by putting a bullet in grandpas brain, you're not affecting your own past. You're simply preventing another you from existing in the new universe your actions have just created and maybe that is what the universe wanted you to do all along.

7 myths you still believe about religion

February 21, 2018 0
7 myths you still believe about religion
Religion - it comes in many many different forms and just as many different names in rules. But the vast number of religions and a sheer number of faithful that are out there have led to some very wrong assumptions. This is myths you still believe, the article all about explaining the truth behind the most commonly believed myths. Today, we're going to be exploring some of the most common assumptions and beliefs that you've heard of so many times that just aren't true. Here are 7 myths you still believe about religion:

1. The Amish don't use technology


There are many movies and TV shows that show off the Amish faith as a group of truly old-fashioned settlers with long neckbeards, who have completely turned their back on modern technology. You know those old fashioned people that build huge barns with only a hammer blood sweat and tears and some nails. Well, the truth is the Amish have nothing against electricity or modern communication. They simply strive to promote modesty, necessity, productivity, and above all community.

As a matter of fact, they're pretty cool with most modern gadgetry and will even use it as long as it doesn't have a negative impact on their community. Believe it or not, it's not rare to find Amish villages with generators, solar power, or even battery-powered electricity.

Read More:

2. Religious freedom increases atheism


The United States Constitution protects freedom of religion which has led to many claiming that that right has caused more citizens to turn away from organized religion. The notion has become that when people are free to choose, they will turn to atheism most of the time. However, according to a poll conducted by ABC only 13% o U.S. population identified themselves as having no religion or atheist while 15% of the entire population of the world identified as the same. This comparison puts to bed the idea that religious tolerance alone affects the number of atheists in the world.

Honestly, at the end of the day, believe whatever you want to believe as long as it doesn't affect other people and live and let live.

Read More:


3. There's no heaven or hell in Buddhism


Non-Buddhists have usually only read a brief summary of what the faith actually represents and requires. Many believe that since there's a cycle of rebirth in Buddhism, there exists no heaven or hell within that belief system. Well as it turns out, there are actually multiple hells.

When it comes to the end of your life, Buddhists believe that you're awarded a karmic rank which determines which of the six realms of existence you will be sent to. You can come back as a human on this plain or go to the heavenly realm of Devi' which represents thirty thousand years of pleasure. Or of course, you could also be banished to Narka which is the hell realms where you'll receive a horrendous amount of punishment over and over again for eternity.

So yes, reincarnation occurs but if you come back as a man who continuously borns to death over and over for eternity, that's on you.

Read More:

4. Being agnostic is the same as being atheist


This myth can be traced back to multiple religions grouping all non-believers into a single group named atheists. The problem with that though is that there most definitely is a difference between being agnostic and being atheist. While both do question the existence of a higher power, the difference is that atheists completely reject the idea. Agnostic, however, are simply unsure of what to believe and do not take a stance on whether a higher power exists or not.

5. Jehovah's witnesses deny any medical treatment


Just like every other faith, being that Jehovah's witness comes with a list of things that are allowed and things that of course are not. There is a myth that says that one of their rules is that they cannot seek medical treatment when needed. The truth is Jehovah's witnesses obviously, don't want to die and are in fact permitted by their faith to seek medical treatment when needed.

There is a restriction, however, which is that blood transfusions are disallowed. In fact, quite a few Jehovah's witnesses have died refusing to allow another person's blood to be put into their body. How this one restriction became misconstrued as a denial of all medical treatment.

Read More:

6. Satanists worship evil


While many Christians will claim that Satan worshippers are embracing evil. Satanists, however, will challenge that myth and bust it fairly quickly. Things that Christians consider evil may not be considered evil by non-Christians. Take Lucifer himself for example. While he is seen as the embodiment of evil in many faiths, to Satanists, he's seen as someone who simply encourages individuality free thinking and standing up for what you believe in.

In fact, they claim that his main goal is simply to lead people away from the lies of Christianity. Believe it or not, Satanism promotes turning bad things into good things rather than eliminating bad things altogether. And many of its followers claim that the idea of an all-good God versus an all evil devil is simply propaganda.

Read More:


7. The Catholic Church actively opposes science


With debates involving creationists and TV show scientists being broadcast for ratings and many religious factions denying scientific discoveries, it's pretty easy to see how this myth was formed. However, the truth is many amazing scientific breakthroughs have occurred due to Catholic scholarship and education.

In fact, it was a Belgian priest named George Lemaitre who proposed the Big Bang Theory, an idea that theoretical physicist Albert Einstein actually rejected. Soon after, Einstein received a letter from the Catholic father which said: "Your math is correct but your physics is abominable".

At the end of the day my friends, try to keep an open mind be accepting of others points of view and just spread the love.
