Cathedral of Christ the Saviour, located in Borki, near Kharkov in the Russian Empire (modern-day Kharkiv, Ukraine). Pictured in 1894. It was destroyed during the Second World War.
 
Some nsfw pictures of the Selk'nam. They were a very interesting and tragic people. They were nomadic and lived in small but ever so declining numbers. They were genocided by invading ranchers and gold miners. They had a strange semi-monotheistic religion. They domesticated a breed of canines that was more closer related to foxes then to wolves. That animal was called the Fuegian dog and it went extinct along with the last fully blooded Selk'nam. I also remember someone explained how there is a weird degree of separtion between the Selk'nam and H.P. Lovecraft but I don't remember what the finer details of that were.

That's fascinating. Any clues to finding information on the H.P. Lovecraft connection? That's too interesting to just leave alone and I'm having trouble turning anything up online.
 

My Government and Econ. teacher in high school had Polio. he used a wheelchair and his legs were withered. Greatest fucking man to ever teach Social Studies. Started off every class period reading from 3-4 newspapers. At the time, the big Nation/World events were: Bosnia/Serbia, Waco, and the possibility of Clinton.

Favorite story: Curt Cobain. Goddamn, just about every girl in my class acted like this waste of space was like the fucking King of England or something. Every fucking day for over a week (maybe two), he'd open the class with "And in other news, Curt Cobain is STILL DEAD." :story:
