Get Naked: It’s Good for Your Brain
I’m so in favor of this, damn those indecent exposure laws!
This reminds me, my brother always asks why I wear my pants at my waist level and I keep telling him, “one, I can breath better, two, I don’t feel constricted in the mid region and finally, it feels natural.”
People who wear their pants at Urkel level should read this...

This article is deadly accurate and incredibly insightful.
syntheticpubes:
I used to read stuff like this and get upset. But then I realized that my entire generation knows it’s baloney. They can’t explain it intellectually. They have no real understanding of the subtleties of the law, or arguments about artists’ rights or any of that. All they really understand is there are large corporations...

Bird-brained anti-homeless plan in Surrey stinks
Worse than the bird-brained stupidity of this plan, its obvious illegality, and the lingering political stink that will continue well after the city and/or RCMP realize their mistake and clean up the mess, is the attitude it reflects on the part of public agencies towards Surrey’s homeless population.

Fewer Prisoners = More Money For U.S. States
State Prisons Under Pressure To Unlock Cash
Fettig said with the average annual U.S. cost at $25,000 per prisoner, states should be taking a hard look at their policies to determine who should really be kept in prison.

If I Could Title This Article I’d Call It, “Fucked From The Get Go”
Economically, the Boomers have devastated the country. We inherited debt, a shredded safety net; pensions went the way of the horse and buggy; largely, no one born after 1982 will ever have a full-time job. I don’t know what the new economic model is. We are a waning empire that has seen unparalleled...
I love this scene!
From the trivia section of IMDb
The scene where Richie punches the glass in Mortaci’s pen is unscripted, this was improvised by Luke Wilson on the spot and the scene quickly cuts to Richie and Ralleigh (Bill Murray) talking up close, this is because when Wilson punched the glass, director Wes Anderson thought he seriously hurt himself.

MagicJack’s Next Act: Disappearing Cell Phone Fees
The size of a deck of cards, it plugs into a PC, which needs a broadband Internet connection. The device then detects when a compatible cell phone comes within 8 feet, and places a call to it.

YOU ARE IN CONTROL (Via Global Guerillas)
Median male incomes today are the same as they were in 1974 in the US (and likely all over the western world). No progress has been made despite a doubling of productivity and massive top line GDP growth. Worse, given that female incomes aren’t on par with male incomes yet, the typical American family makes much less per hour worked than in...

Is the Huffington bank boycott a good idea?
Banks make their money in a lot of ways, such as by collecting fees. For instance, banks are projected to collect $38.5 billion in overdraft fees this year, some 90 percent of which is paid by only 10 percent of the customer base. While the new opt-in requirement for overdraft protection will probably lower this number in the coming years, it’s safe...

Dubai’s Record-High Tower Ready for the Public
Update: NYT just changed the title of the article to:
Economy Is Down, but Dubai Tower Tops All
Dubai is going to go bankrupt very shortly, so I plan on sitting back, and laughing at all the stupid shit they, and their investors try to implement into the city.
