It was a predictably eventful evening in LA this past Sunday at the 96th Academy Awards, hosted at the Dolby Theater.
Among the stand-out moments were John Cena’s naked walk across the stage to present the award for Best Costume Design and Al Pacino’s decision to skip over the nominations for Best Film altogether, instead going straight to announcing the winner.
There were also plenty of talking points to be gleaned from the red carpet, not least relating to the plethora of eye-catching outfits on show. As per reports, actress Kelly Ripa and husband Mark Consuelos were among those to steal the show, with the former causing a particular stir on social media.
Celebrities dominating headlines for their choice of garment for any particular awards ceremony is nothing new.
Yet in the age of social media, where live photos from the red carpet can be shared around the world at the click of a button, it’s become arguably more popular than ever to discuss and debate outfits in real time.
As such, it’s only natural to expect that an event of the magnitude of the Oscars, and those fortunate enough to be in attendance, is always going to be heavily scrutinized.
For a quarter of a century, a man has made his home in a cave alongside his faithful dog: Come explore what their life looks like inside this secluded retreat!
It’s remarkable that despite the conveniences of modern technology, some people still choose to use outdated tools and methods. Consider the example of a 67-year-old man who has dedicated his efforts to constructing an intricate cave system, demonstrating that age is no barrier to undertaking ambitious projects.
With limited financial means, he has poured his heart into this work, employing only simple tools like a shovel and a cart. Although he does not have a formal education, he takes pride in his craftsmanship and believes that others will recognize the quality of his work.
When he started digging in 1987, he could not have imagined that his creation would gain such fame and acclaim, adorned with a variety of artifacts on its walls. The stunning beauty of his caves, known as Ra Paulet’s caverns, makes it difficult to assign a financial value to them.
To date, he has completed 14 caves and is currently working on his 15th, which he claims will surpass all his previous efforts. For more information, check out the video below.
