Reposted from @history_and_stories Heartbreaking story of a mother who became 'world's ugliest woman' to support her family In 1900's England, a mother-of-four took up the title of being "the ugliest woman in the world" to feed her children. Here's her story. She is Mary Ann Bevan who was known as the "ugliest woman in the world" but when you know her life you'll call her the "most beautiful person in the world." Marry Ann suffered from acromegaly due to which she had abnormal growth nd facial distortion. After the death of her husband, with no breadwinner in the house, accumulating debts and financial needs of her 4 children she decided to enter the humiliating contest and won the offensive title of "ugliest woman in the world" later she was hired by a circus, toured different cities where people came to laugh nd humiliate her. (Also follow @ww1_conflict , A page dedicated to world war 1 history. Please follow @5030remember , A great history page showing world history with daily timeline.) While disproportionate bodily features were noticeable, what people couldn't see was the pain she suffered because of this disorder, which came in forms of splitting migraines and muscle ache. She endured the ridicule of others in order to raise her children nd give them a better quality of life. She died in 1933. To this day, society judges people on their physical appearance, if our eyes could see souls instead of bodies, Mary Ann would have been the most beautiful woman in the world.💞 #acromegaly #beautifulgirls #beautifulheart #inspiring #womeninspiringwomen #womenempowerment #womenpower #victorianphotos #victorianera #victorian #vintagephotography #vintageaesthetic #vintagephotographs #vintagephotos #photooftheday #inspirational #historiareiss #historia #england #1900s #historyinpictures #historylove #historyphotography https://www.instagram.com/p/CW4uIkbt8Nj/?utm_medium=tumblr

🗺️ I've noticed that when people decide to visit/explore Bulgaria, they usually do it either from the East or from the West. But almost never from the middle of the country. ✈️ I find that normal. In the west you have the capital (Sofia) with good airport connections and on the east you have the seaside (we have a border with the Black Sea) where people often come to find sunny days and/or cheap alcohol. 🏚️ But the thing is that Bulgaria is not just Sofia, sea and mountains. Bulgaria is waterfalls, caves, monasteries, the food, the people... This picture is from North Central Bulgaria. It is taken in a city called Veliko Tarnovo and as you can see by the look of the street, it's quite old. Once upon a time this was the capital of the Bulgarian Empire. There's loads of history in the city and fascinating nature in the area (scroll down the feed to see some of the shots I took during my journey couple of weeks ago). I'm hoping soon to give you a nice little video of the area. . . . . . . . . . . . #bulgaria #tarnovo #velikotarnovo #velicotarnovo #bulgarians #bulgarianculture #bulgariahistory #bulgarianhistory #historian #history #historypictureoftheday #historygeek #historyshow #historyblogger #history_and_story #historybulgaria #travel #traveller #instabulgaria #insta_bulgaria #visitbulgaria #instatraveling #instatraveller #streetphotographer #urbanist #urban #streetphotography #bulgarianbloggers #bulgarianblogger #bulgarianvlogger (at Veliko Tarnovo, Bulgaria) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoZ5FGvB7fK/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12wuxja73fhe1

كان د. جمال حمدان صاحب السبق في فضح أكذوبة أن اليهود الحاليين هم أحفاد بني إسرائيل الذين خرجوا من فلسطين خلال حقب ما قبل الميلاد، واثبت في كتابه "اليهود أنثروبولوجيا" الصادر في عام 1967، بالأدلة العملية أن اليهود المعاصرين الذين يدعون أنهم ينتمون إلى فلسطين ليسوا هم أحفاد اليهود الذين خرجوا من فلسطين قبل الميلاد، وإنما ينتمي هؤلاء إلى إمبراطورية "الخزر التترية" التي قامت بين "بحر قزوين" و"البحر الأسود"، واعتنقت اليهودية في القرن الثامن الميلادي، وهو ما أكده بعد ذلك بعشر سنوات "آرثر كوستلر" مؤلف كتاب القبيلة الثالثة عشرة الذي صدر عام 1976. عثر على جثته والنصف الأسفل منها محروقاً، واعتقد الجميع أن د. حمدان مات متأثراً بالحروق، ولكن د. يوسف الجندي مفتش الصحة بالجيزة أثبت في تقريره أن الفقيد لم يمت مختنقاً بالغاز، كما أن الحروق ليست سبباً في وفاته، لأنها لم تصل لدرجة أحداث الوفاة. اكتشف المقربون من د.حمدان اختفاء مسودات بعض الكتب التي كان بصدد الانتهاء من تأليفها، وعلى رأسها كتابة عن اليهودية والصهيونية و يقع في ألف صفحة و كان من المفروض أن يأخذه ناشره يوسف ��بد الرحمن يوم الأحدوالكتاب الثاني: العالم الإسلامي المعاصر وله كتاب قديم عن العالم الإسلامي كتبه سنة 1965 ثم عاد وأكمله وتوسع فيه بعد ذلك لدرجة أنه أصبح كتاباً جديداً. والكتاب الثالث: عن علم الجغرافيا، مع العلم أن النار التي اندلعت في الشقة لم تصل لكتب وأوراق د. حمدان، مما يعني اختفاء هذه المسودات بفعل فاعل وحتى هذه اللحظة لم يعلم أحد سبب الوفاة ولا أين اختفت مسودات الكتب التي كانت تتحدث عن اليهود. و مما يؤكد حتمية قتله ما رواه اشقائه عبد العظيم حمدان وفوزية حمدان أن الطباخ الذي كان يطبخ له فوجئنا بأن قدمه انكسرت وأنه راح بلده ولم نعد نعرف له مكاناً. و أمر آخر أن جارة كانت تسكن في البيت الذي يسكن فيه جمال حمدان قالت لنا إن هناك رجلاً وامرأة خواجات. سكنوا في الشقة الموجودة فوق شقته شهرين ونصف قبل اغتياله ثم اختفيا بعد قتله وقد فجّر رئيس المخابرات السابق أمين هويدي مفاجأة من العيار الثقيل، حول الكيفية التي مات بها جمال حمدان، وأكد هويدي أن لديه ما يثبت أن الموساد الإسرائيلي هو الذي قتل حمدان . . history_and_story https://www.instagram.com/p/B9sRtaiBi7E/?igshid=2vd037wujvib

 Indian Air Force Helicopter Unit 116 “The time when India had dancing elephant helicopters. The exact date is difficult to pinpoint. Some claim that the legend of India’s ‘dancing elephant helicopters’ started in 1977 when the first one of its kind took to the air. Others say that it began earlier. Whatever the case, these colorful adaptations, designed to display military might, industrial strength and the country’s cultural diversity, have entered popular folklore. But to find the origins of these so-called ‘flying elephants’, it is necessary to go back to 1969. In that year, India started building a licensed version of the popular French Aérospatiale Alouette III. It was manufactured by HAL and named Chetak – after a warhorse belonging to the 16th century King Maharana Pratap. The name meant devotion, bravery and resistance to occupation. The entire body of the aircraft was covered in richly decorated textiles, complete with four hollow ‘legs’, two massive ‘ears’, a pair of ‘tusks’, and a massive ‘trunk’. The aircraft created a furore in the crowd, and rightfully so. One of the national animals of India, and a powerful symbol of its might, the elephant was a spectacular sight to behold, even though all the dressed-up helicopter could do was fly slowly in a straight line. The ‘modification’ was done by one of IAF’s tailors by attaching pieces of fabric. Even the canopy was enclosed, leaving just narrow slits to see through, and the pilot would not dare to accelerate beyond 110 kilometers per hour (70 mph) for the fear of losing the decals and possibly damaging the machine.”
