His Way Or Walk Away?

It’s possible to turn peanut butter into diamonds. While most of us are happy to slap some peanut butter between two slices of bread, scientist Dan Frost of the Bayerisches Geoinstitut in Germany did something a little bit different with his peanut butter: He made a diamond! Frost studies the conditions of Earth's mantle and has found ways to mimic them in his lab. According to the BBC, the high pressures of the mantle can strip oxygen from carbon dioxide and leave behind the carbon to form a diamond. And since peanut butter is already rich in carbon, Frost was able to transform the nutty goodness into a shiny jewel.

Orthodox Christians commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ with customs varying across different cultures and countries. Orthodox Christmas Day is a religious holiday celebrated by Orthodox Christians around the world. It is a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ, who is considered the Son of God and the savior of the world in Christianity. It’s typically celebrated on January 7th—according to the Julian calendar which is used by many Orthodox churches — and is also referred to as “Old Calendar Christmas” or simply “Old Christmas.” Orthodox Christmas Day is an important holiday for Orthodox Christians, as it marks the beginning of the Christmas season, which culminates in the celebration of Epiphany on January 19th. Epiphany is a holiday that commemorates the manifestation of Jesus as the Son of God to the world through his baptism in the Jordan River and the visit of the magi.
