Clearest picture of Jupiter, from Earth. Isn't she beautiful? Actually hundreds of photos taken by the Gemini North Telescope in Hawaii, compiled to produce the infrared snap in order to see beyond Jupiter’s hazy atmosphere.

Napoleon’s Youth
(Napoleon as First Consul of France)
First, we have to acknowledge the reckless manner in which Napoleon’s character is treated. He is painted as either having a psychological disorder or as being the genocidal precursor to Hitler. Neither is accurate. Napoleon was not all that different from the other sovereigns and generals of Europe in his ruthlessness. And what goes most frequently ignored are his progressive and herculean achievements in the political sphere (possibly because his military achievements were just that staggering).
Napoleon however, was not born into money. He did not emerge as a natural genius and his early life is littered with recurring failures (and thoughts of suicide). He invokes obsession – be it in the form of praise or vitriolic condemnation – because he quite literally rose from nothing into a titan of history. His life is meticulously studied for that reason. We, in some capacity, want to do that ourselves.
