THIS IS WATER - By David Foster Wallace on Vimeo - http://vimeo.com/65576562
" the 2005 graduating class of Kenyon College. However, the resulting speech didn't become widely known until 3 years later, after his tragic death. It is, without a doubt, some of the best life advice we've ever come across, and perhaps the most simple and elegant explanation of the real value of education. We made this video, built around an abridged version of the original audio recording, with the hopes that the core message of the speech could reach a wider audience who might not have otherwise been interested."

"A Tucson climber was found dead, hanging from a southern Arizona cliff in his climbing gear and covered with bee stings. The Santa Cruz County Sheriff's Office says 55-year-old Steven Johnson was found in the Santa Rita Mountains south of Tucson late Monday. Cause of death hasn't been determined yet, but officials say Johnson was covered with stings when he was found. Johnson was last seen Friday when he went hiking, and friends became worried when he didn't go to work on Monday. Search and rescue teams found both Johnson and his dog dead. The dog was on the top of the cliff. Sheriff's Lt. Raoul Rodriguez says Johnson may have disturbed bees by hammering a spike into the cliff."

"Sky News reports that 33-year-old Oleg Topalov escaped from Matrosskaya Tishina, apparently by using a single spoon to dig a hole through his cell’s ceiling. He is only the fourth person in 20 years to escape from the prison. Russian investigators have blamed Topalov’s escape on the prison staff, who they say engaged in a, "dishonest or careless attitude to their work that was made use of by the prisoner Topalov." Topalov, who was sentenced for double murder and arms trafficking, used the spoon to create a hole in the cell’s roof, opened a ventilation shaft and then climbed to the prison’s roof, finally escaping over the building’s perimeter fence."

"Meet Mr. Balls, the anti-testicular cancer mascot dreamed up by the Brazilian nonprofit Associação de Assistência às Pessoas com Câncer. In case you're blind and can't see the picture, he looks exactly like the kind of angry giant nuts that chase you around in nightmares. Based on what I could extrapolate from the photo gallery on the nonprofit's homepage (follow for more pictures of Mr. Balls hanging out), the mascot has been busy traveling around to various horse shows in the country, terrifying children and making little boys wish they didn't have nuts, and little girls hope they never have to see any. Did I mention Mr. Balls is actually a wearable costume? Because he is. Somebody can actually get in there and dance and wave their arms around AND WHY CAN'T IT BE ME?"

Why We Can't Stop Eating Frosting From The Can | Popular Science - http://www.popsci.com/science...
Halil, SteVe C, LB: #TeamMonique and Mahdi E liked this
"You know when you're eating frosting straight out of the can and you're thinking, "I don't even really like this flavor," but you keep on eating? (It's a dark, but human, moment. We understand.) Well, now one study is offering an explanation for why. Compared to calorie-free foods, foods with calories in them hit the human brain with big effects, even if people don't appear to consciously like the flavors all that much. There appear to be two unrelated brain circuits that kick into gear when people consume things, Dana Small, a Yale University psychologist who studies people's responses to food and one of the scientists who performed this study, tells Popular Science. There's one that's related to consciously liking flavors. And then there's another that responds to glucose in the blood, which is an indicator of that person's metabolism of food. "The thing the brain really cares about are the calories," Small says."

"This is the 150,000-piece LEGO recreation of the Battle of Helm's Deep from Lord of the Rings. It was built by Rich-K & Big J and contains over 1,700 minifigs, which is probably more minifigs than I could eat in my lifetime, but believe me, I'm still going to try anyways. Those little weapons tickle going down and hurt coming out. You ever had a little plastic battleaxe get stuck in your ass sideways? Right, well me neither then. God forbid we share similar experiences so we can grow closer."

Nancy Grace and Ashleigh Banfield Hold Split-Screen Interview in Same Parking Lot - http://www.theatlanticwire.com/nationa...

"In a bizarre television and spatial anomaly on CNN this morning, the blanket coverage of two true-crime stories led two news anchors to conduct an odd "satellite" interview from the very same parking lot, background traffic and all."

CNN does infotainment right!

I'm sure they had to keep the shot tight due to all the press and they didn't want audio bleed over when crazy Nancy started her HN show (she's loud if you hadn't heard), but that is kind of funny.

"Seen here celebrating not having to eat through a straw, the Stormtrooper and Ghostbuster attacked by 31-year old Adam Barnes dance outside Coast City Comics on Free Comic Book Day. The two were attacked at 2:30PM by a drunk Barnes, who stands 6'4", 300-pounds and clearly has a thing against anybody smaller than him having a good time."

HTC Just Put the Facebook Phone on Its Dollar Menu, and That's Bad News - Yahoo! News - http://news.yahoo.com/htc-jus...
Not surprised. "It's never a good sign when a cellphone company lowers the price of a cellphone so soon after its release, which makes the new, very low $0.99 price of HTC's so-called Facebook phone so very foreboding."

"Let's stop this facade that we are a beacon of tolerance. I don't need you to "tolerate" me. I don't want you to merely put up with my presence. All I ask, all I have ever asked, is to be treated as a human being, that bigoted jingoism is not injected into every minute facet my life, that there remains at least the illusion of decency."

I didn't think it rained all that much, either, but I guess it did.

At least that's an iMac which is relatively small as far as desktops go. I remember years ago there used to be a photo of a guy who brought a full-blown PC desktop to a Starbucks.

What Makes People Overshare? - WSJ.com - http://online.wsj.com/article...

"There are three basic attachment types: Secure, anxious and avoidant. Secure people, roughly 55% of the population, had parents who were consistently caring and responsive; these people are typically loving and comfortable with intimacy. The other 45% have an attachment style that is more problematic—either anxious, avoidant or some combination."

I feel better that the "normal" secure population is not larger than 55%. Bad for humanity, but it makes me feel less like a complete weirdo. (EDIT: After reading the article I have to roll my eyes just a bit at the author's POV. While you can definitely overshare and/or share with non-intimate people, the author's default seems to be keeping EVERYTHING to yourself. Shit, if you can't...

Ref's death a consequence of lack of sportsmanship - Yahoo! News - http://news.yahoo.com/refs-de...
SteVe C, Jennifer Dittrich and Shevonne liked this
"The football teams were still on the field, exchanging the traditional postgame handshakes, when Pete McCabe walked by. The veteran referee heard another official call his name and turned, only to be smashed in the face with a helmet by one of the players. Almost every bone in McCabe's face was broken, his skull fractured in several places and his nose nowhere close to where it belonged. As he lay on the ground in Rochester, N.Y., the semi-pro player who assaulted him stood over him yelling, "Take that. Take that. This is what I'm all about.""

- Shevonne
I was confused for a second, since the referee who died was at a soccer match. I don't remember that first one, but I'm not surprised. The comments later on about trash talking and expectations of being troublemakers are only part of it (though why bring up Lindsey Lohan? There are plenty of famous athletes he could've chosen that would've been more on topic.)
- Jennifer Dittrich
I wonder if part of the problem is sport has become entertainment. People expect more than just a well-played game. They want drama and excitement beyond the actual sport. Violence is cheered. Winning at any cost is acceptable. Makes me sick.

Jennifer Dittrich and John (bird whisperer) liked this
"Colossal numbers of cicadas, unhurriedly growing underground since 1996, are about to emerge along much of the U.S. East Coast to begin passionately singing and mating as their remarkable life cycle restarts. This year heralds the springtime emergence of billions of so-called 17-year periodical cicadas, with their distinctive black bodies, buggy red eyes, and orange-veined wings, along a roughly 900-mile stretch from northern Georgia to upstate New York."
