				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://helablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/book-thrill-treasure-hunt-1.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-30983" alt="book-thrill-treasure-hunt-1" src="http://helablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/book-thrill-treasure-hunt-1.jpg" width="550" height="613" /></a>Somewhere out there, someone is crying over the fact that their grandfather is about to give away their inheritance.</p>
<p>Up for grabs is a chest filled with millions of dollars in gold coins, diamonds, emeralds and other gems&#8230;all Forrest Fenn, 82, wants in return &#8211; stop watching so much TV and go outside.</p>
<p>The New Mexico multimillionaire hid the 40 pound chest 3-years-ago, in hopes it will get people to fall in love with America&#8217;s scenic trails and pass on what he calls the &#8220;thrill of the chase,&#8221; something he has experienced over more than seven decades of hunting for rare objects.</p>
<p>I know what your thinking, &#8216;shut up and give us the clue&#8217;&#8230; well here is one &#8211; &#8220;Begin it where warm waters halt, and take it in the canyon down, not far, but too far to walk.&#8221;</p>
<p>For the rest of the clues, you will have to buy his book &#8220;<a href="http://www.oldsantafetradingco.com/the-thrill-resource-page" target="_blank">The thrill of the Chase</a>&#8220;, which he will probably make $10 million in sales from. The poem bellow is said to have 9 clues in it, so try it out and tell me where the hell you think it is!</p>
<p><center><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/BXE68H2ex9Q?feature=player_detailpage" height="360" width="600" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0"></iframe></center></p>
<blockquote><p><strong>This poem written by Forrest Fenn contains nine clues that if followed precisely, will lead to the end of his rainbow and the treasure. Happy Hunting!</strong></p>
<p>As I have gone alone in there<br />
And with my treasures bold,<br />
I can keep my secret where,<br />
And hint of riches new and old.</p>
<p>Begin it where warm waters halt<br />
And take it in the canyon down,<br />
Not far, but too far to walk.<br />
Put in below the home of Brown.</p>
<p>From there it&#8217;s no place for the meek,<br />
The end is ever drawing nigh;<br />
There&#8217;ll be no paddle up your creek,<br />
Just heavy loads and water high.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;ve been wise and found the blaze,<br />
Look quickly down, your quest to cease,<br />
But tarry scant with marvel gaze,<br />
Just take the chest and go in peace.</p>
<p>So why is it that I must go<br />
And leave my trove for all to seek?<br />
The answer I already know,<br />
I&#8217;ve done it tired, and now I&#8217;m weak.</p>
<p>So hear me all and listen good,<br />
Your effort will be worth the cold.<br />
If you are brave and in the wood<br />
I give you title to the gold.</p></blockquote>

<p>The Bank and Safe Kit comes with all the parts needed to plan out the perfect bank job&#8230;a woman with dark sunglasses holding a fully automatic 9mm Glock and a screwdriver, the &#8216;soon to be dead&#8217; bank manager and plenty of gold bars, cash and a cash machine.</p>
<p>Some are calling the toy &#8216;shocking&#8217; others claim it encourages kids to &#8216;imagine, invent and create&#8217;.</p>
<p>Aimed at kids aged four to 10 and <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0077QT57O/ref=as_li_tf_tl?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;creativeASIN=B0077QT57O&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;tag=helblo-20" target="_blank">only $72.00</a> (£39.99).

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://helablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/asteroid-mining-deep-space-industries.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-30430" alt="asteroid-mining-deep-space-industries" src="http://helablog.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/asteroid-mining-deep-space-industries.jpg" width="600" height="330" /></a>Historically precious metals, such as gold and silver were used as currency and as valuable as they are now, they may be worth nothing compared to the riches of space rocks.</p>
<p>Yes space rocks&#8230; a new asteroid-mining company called Deep Space Industries, <a href="http://www.space.com/19368-asteroid-mining-deep-space-industries.html" target="_blank">plans to launch a fleet of prospecting spacecraft in 2015</a>, then begin harvesting metals and water from near-Earth asteroids within a decade or so.</p>
<p>Deep Space will inspect potential mining targets with 55-pound (25 kilograms) spacecraft it calls FireFlies, which will be made from low-cost &#8220;cubesat&#8221; components and will hitch a ride to space aboard rockets that also carry large communications satellites.</p>
<p>The FireFlies&#8217; work will pave the way for 70-pound (32 kg) spacecraft called DragonFlies, which will blast off beginning in 2016. DragonFlies will bring asteroid samples back to Earth during missions that last two to four years. Some samples will help the company determine mining targets, while others will probably be sold to researchers and collectors.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;The public will participate in FireFly and DragonFly missions via live feeds from Mission Control, online courses in asteroid mining sponsored by corporate marketers and other innovative ways to open the doors wide.&#8221; &#8220;The Google Lunar X Prize, Unilever and Red Bull each are spending tens of millions of dollars on space sponsorships, so the opportunity to sponsor a FireFly expedition into deep space will be enticing.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Aside from extracting metals and other building materials from space rocks, Deep Space Industries will also be focusing on extracting asteroid water, which can be split into its constituent hydrogen and oxygen — yup you guessed it, the chief components of rocket fuel.</p>
<p>Deep Space Industries will hold a press conference today in Santa Monica, Calif., at 10 a.m. PST (1 p.m. EST/1800 GMT) to unveil more details of its bold mission plan; you can watch the webcast live here at <a href="http://www.space.com/17933-nasa-television-webcasts-live-space-tv.html" target="_blank">SPACE.com</a>.<br />

<p>It&#8217;s always a good day when you <a href="http://www.abc.net.au/news/2013-01-17/lucky-prospector-strikes-huge-gold-nugget/4470016">find $300,000+ gold nugget</a>, so when an amateur prospecter found a chunk weighing 177 ounces (5.5 kilograms) with nothing but a metal detector, all his friends knew who was buying dinner that night.</p>
<p>Of course no one will disclose the exact location of where the nugget was found, but we do know it was unearthed somewhere near Ballarat, Australia.</p>
<blockquote><p>The owner of The Mining Exchange Gold Shop in Ballarat, Cordell Kent, said the find was one of the most significant in his 20 years in the business. &#8220;Over that period the sum total of my finds would be just over 100 ounces (2.8 kilograms),&#8221; he said.</p>
<p>&#8220;We have 800 prospectors on our books and only a couple of those have ever found a nugget over 100 ounces.</p></blockquote>

<p>With a wingspan of about 12-inches, this fruit bat skeleton has been recreated approximately to the actual size from a combination of casting and hand, cold forging silver wire. The tiny finger bones, ribs and leg bones have been meticulously filed, hammered and soldered to replicate the delicate bones of the fruit bat.</p>
<p>This new addition to the <a href="http://www.etsy.com/listing/89042987/miyu-decay-sterling-silver-bat-skeleton" target="_blank">Miyu Decay silver line</a> is an art piece and is not for the faint of heart!</p>

<p>He takes taxidermied animals including a buffalo, wildebeest, zebra, rabbits and other creatures and then creates extremely ornate horns featuring replica rifles, machine guns, AK47s as well as human skeletons, flowers, luxury brand logos and other such decorative flourishes.</p>
<p>The artist buys the taxidermy from auctions and describes the taxidermists are the &#8220;unsung heroes of these pieces&#8221;. He explains: &#8220;Some of them are so beautiful when I get them I almost hesitate to cut them up.  The horns are made through many hours of sculpting and sanding.&#8221;</p>
<p>Pricing ranges from $300.00 to $10,000 and if you ask nicely shipping can be arranged.</p>
<p>Forget zombies, these little bastards would tear you apart.</p>
