Where would you find such stone artefacts? What is their purpose?





The Micronesian island of Yap uses large circular stone disks called Rai as a currency. The larger the disk, the higher its value.

Cracked by Anon-not-on-Narcotics, Arjun and Namrata. Also, one large Rai to Namrata for reminding me that I hadn't put the answer up.

Like lazy quizmasters say - put funda.



Quoting Bobo - Dumping black balls into an LA reservoir to keep the water in the shade so that the bromate and chlorine dont turn carcinogenic. So it was a smart idea to just dump balls into the reservoir instead of any expensive treatment.

What is all this skin show in protest of?



Clue -



Amanda Palmer of Dresden Dolls fame made a music video for the song 'Leeds United' off her new solo album 'Who Killed Amanda Palmer'. Her label Roadrunner Records asked her to digitally modify the video so that her belly would look less chubby, and thus in their opinion more commercially viable. Righteous outrage happened. From her, and more so from her fans who started a rebellyon by posting pics of their natural bellies to Roadrunner as a show of solidarity with Amanda and her midriff.
