New Delhi to Varanasi on the Swatantrata S Express (Train No. 12562)
Normally taking the Shiv Ganga Express to Varanasi from Delhi, I opted for the Swatantrata S Express last time in order to have a couple more hours of daylight on the train. It paid off. What follows is one morning shooting out the window from the 2nd Tier AC section of the Swantantrata Express. So kick back, get a cup of chai, and enjoy the journey.
Arriving at Varanasi Station.

Philosophers such as Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle arose from Greece. It is a city full of history and culture. For anyone who is intrigued by classics or history, Athens, Greece is the place to visit. The first step to at trip to Athens is obtaining a pass port. Once this is accomplished the antiquities of Ancient Athens will soon be at your finger tips.
Passports
Passports have been around for quite a while, they originated in France and then the US picked up on them. They became valid travel documents permitting travel to foreign lands. They are required today in order to travel to another country. They used to be somewhat difficult to obtain, now through technology and the internet they are readily available as well as all the other passport services, like passport renewal, that may be needed.
Athens
Athena, the warrior Goddess is the deity that presides over Athens; this is how Athens got its name. Athena was one of the Olympic Gods, her name as well as the lore of many other Gods has permeated literature and history books. Most people have heard of the clash of the Titians versus Olympians as well as the Athenian and Spartan competition.
Sites
The major sites of Athens include; The Acropolis where the Parthenon stands, Syntagma Square, the national archaeological museum, Mount Olympus, and the Olympic stadiums. These are just some of the many sites offered by Athens.
Parthenon
The Parthenon which stands on the Acropolis is one of the most notorious sites of Athens. The structure was built to honor the great Athena, whom Athens is named after. The steadfast structure has been used as a church, a mosque, and even a place to house weapons during the Turkish occupation. The Parthenon although in ruins, is still an amazing structure to view and is a symbol of Greece.
Syntagma Square
Syntagma Square is the business center of Athens, it is where the government buildings are and where city events take place. It is a brilliant square featuring the cultural focal point of city life in Athens. It is the prime place for filming and video shoots. Any walk through Syntagma Square is sure to be an adventure and you may end up in a Greek film.
National Archaeological Museum
The National Archaeological Museum is the countries largest museum. It was originally constructed to hold the excavated finds from the nineteenth century, but since then it has grown. It now holds over 11,000 exhibits from Ancient Athens and beyond. The items featured range from pre-historic collections to the Bronze Age and also feature items from Egypt as well.

Like a broken record, we didn’t make this one up either.
Gerald B. Hardin, 34, was arrested today on charges of insurance fraud back in 2008. But it goes much further than that.
According to authorities, while living in South Carolina, Hardin and another person created a plan to take a small chain saw, attach it to a long pole and cut the third person’s hand off.
The three participants then submitted insurance claims against the homeowner’s insurance policy, three accidental death policies and dismemberment policies, receiving over 1,000.
The other two members of the plan have not been identified as of yet.
Hardin could receive 20 years imprisonment and 0,000 in fines for each of his six charges.
Ouch!

Ray-J is set to release his explosive new book, Death of a Cheating Man: What Every Woman Must Know About Men Who Stray, which gives details on his past relationships with women. One of the more racier stories details his relationship with a woman named “KK,” who he claims left her husband for him when they first started hooking up.
“[KK] let me know she wanted to get with me. She left her husband for me as soon as we started having sex.”
It’s not hard to figure out who “KK” is, considering the initials match up with one of his most famous girlfriends, Kim Kardashian, not to mention the time frame he details totally match up. Ray-J also gave details of why he never trusted “KK” in the relationship, because she cheated on him with her husband.
What broke them up, according to Ray-J, was jealousy. He said KK believed he was cheating with every girl he ran across and wanted to know where he was at all times.
