T.I. Stars In “The Suicide Prevention Negotiator”

But this shit right here sounds like something out of a F. Gary Gray movie with $14 million in first-week box office sales. TMZ is reporting that T.I. heard about a suicide jumper on the 22-story building where Atlanta’s V103 calls their...

OMG 4 Months in a Hole
It will take at least four months to rescue 33 miners trapped underground in Chile, the head of the rescue operation has said.
Rescuers made contact with the miners by lowering a probe into the mine, 17 days after the men became trapped.
The miners, stuck in a mine shaft shelter some 700m (2,300ft) down, sent up a note saying they were all alive.
Rescuers are now preparing to drill a wider hole...
Bermuda Triangle Mystery Solved

For years, believers in the paranormal, aliens, and other outlandish theories pointed to the the disappearance of ships and aircraft as an indicator of mysterious forces at work in the “Devil’s triangle.” Scientists have finally pointed...

MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Baby-faced teen singer Charice says she prepared for her debut on the hit Fox TV show “Glee” by getting Botox and an anti-aging procedure “to look fresh on camera,” but her publicist said the Botox was for muscle pain, not for cosmetic reasons.

Community College
So taking my first community college is an eye opening experience for me. It’s helped me become so much more grateful for the UC system. I have been totally spoiled. It’s strange to say but I miss camping out for finals week. I miss the insane competition. I miss being challenged in learning. The concepts I’m learning are just so elementary. I get so frustrated sitting in class.

Yes, It's True: California is Banning Plastic Bags
Thanks largely to the interminable gloom of the BP Gulf oil spill, it feels like we haven’t seen any good news on the green front for ages. But while all eyes have been on the Gulf, the California State Assembly passed a truly exciting bill: One that bans single-use plastic bags across the state.
That’s correct: plastic bags will no longer be frivolously doled out with every...

Using a made-from-scratch genome, scientists have breathed a new kind of life into a bacterium. The feat, published May 21 in Science, holds great promise for creating designer organisms that might do things like produce vaccines, synthesize biofuels, purify water or eat spilled oil.

Aerobics is for wimps, marathons are for the uncommitted and kickboxing is yesterday’s game. If you really want to vanquish your flab, no exercise can compete with an hour of vigorous feudal massacre.
Welcome to Samurai Camp, a fitness regime that fuses ritualised 16th century swordsmanship, an imaginary bloodbath and throbbing techno music — and which has captivated 21st-century Japanese...

So I “liked” this post yesterday about never stopping caring after a break up, and at first it seemed nice and sweet. Which I’m sure the emotions behind it were. But the more I thought about it, the less I agreed with the post. Understandably there are rules after a break up, you break contact…etc etc.. But if you really felt this way and you never did stop caring, then...
Celery Makes You More Attractive to Women

As we know from flipping through our girlfriend’s magazines, pheromones are excreted chemicals that send signals like...

Act Like A Vietnamese Prostitute, Get Free Edamame
A California sushi restaurant has been offering free edamame — as long as you’re willing to say “Me love you long time” to the waitstaff. And apparently the idea worked so wonderfully that it’s spreading!
The Huntington Beach branch of chain RA Sushi seems to have launched the promotion in early April, according to a Facebook post. The company’s Facebook wall...

Rethinking Virginity—And Examining Our Assumptions...
What are the historical roots of virginity? How do queer people lose their virginity? And in an age where teens claim virginity while having anal and oral sex, what does virginity really mean?
I spent yesterday thinking through these questions, and many more, while at Harvard’s Rethinking Virginity conference. Organized in response to statements made by True Love Revolution...
