And yet, there has never been a presidential candidate from a major party quite like Donald Trump. There’s a first for everything, but his withdrawal is unlikely. Trump has said he’s not quitting. “I’d never withdraw,” he told the Washington Post. “I’ve never withdrawn in my life.” As the chorus of Republicans calling for Trump to step down grows, few historical precedents exist to give us any guidance.

The closest one in modern American history is the removal of Democratic vice presidential nominee Thomas Eagleton in 1972. The next closest example dates back to 1912 when a Republican vice presidential candidate died a few days before the general election.

Abandonado. The 6 Creepiest Places on Earth. It doesn't matter whether or not you believe in ghosts, there are some places in which none of us would want to spend a night. These places have well earned their reputations as being so creepy, tragic or mysterious (or all three) that they definitely qualify as "haunted. " Places like... Aokigahara is a woodland at the base of Mount Fuji in Japan that makes The Blair Witch Project forest look like Winnie the Pooh's Hundred Acre Wood. It probably has something to do with all the dead bodies scattered around. What Niagara Falls is to weddings, Aokigahara is to suicide.

More than 500 fucking people have taken their own lives in Aokigahara since the 1950s.

Guest article by Mikaela Bandini (Urban Destination Therapist) for Yatzer.com Some hotels around the world just give you that feeling.

They make you want to draw the curtains and hang up that ‘do not disturb’ sign for a couple of hours every time you set foot in your room. It makes no difference whether they’re boutique or bohemian, multinational or microscopic: they just have that certain something. The right ‘look & feel’ doesn’t just happen. And the experts now tell us that what we’re after is decidedly not the lofty monochrome interiors and harsh horizontal lines that have been considered the last word in hotel design for way too long.

My classification contains some new entries and a couple of classics that, in my opinion, are still seriously in the running, based on (more-or-less) proven theories, and a dash of that plain simple gut feeling. A few basics from Feng Shui are a good place to start if you’re aiming to unleash that positive ‘harmony’. Sources: Mikaela Bandini for Yatzer.
