Posted: 26 Feb 2014 08:39 AM PST Good to see some of our finest technological minds staying busy. Engineers from Lockheed Martin recently held a contest in Liverpool, N.Y., to see which team of colleagues could duct tape a person to a wall for the longest time. The stunt (watch above) was part of National Engineers Week, the Syracuse Post-Standard reported. The winning time was about 15 minutes. This may come as a surprise, but duct tape has other uses besides entertaining grownups. Maybe now these wizards could embark on another mission, like figuring out how to quickly unspool the tape when the front gets stuck to the roll. Read More... More on Weird News |
Huffington Post: 9 Times The Women Of 'Scandal' Proved They Know What's Up Posted: 26 Feb 2014 08:42 AM PST Shonda Rhimes knows how to bring some pretty badass ladies to life on the small screen -- and the women of "Scandal" are no exception.

(Two words: red wine.) Here are nine ways the ladies of "Scandal" get it right: 1. They know when to put their foot down with a romantic partner. |
Huffington Post: 5 Questions You Should Be Asking About Legal Weed (Even If You Support It) Posted: 26 Feb 2014 08:44 AM PST The future of legal marijuana is becoming less hazy every day: Americans are continuing to support legalization in record numbers, apparently no longer swayed by the same deceptive arguments drug warriors have used for decades in support of a failed policy of prohibition. With legal weed now being sold at stores around Colorado and soon in Washington state, others are considering riding the tide of popularity to lower enforcement costs and substantial tax revenues. But just because the anti-marijuana crowd isn't putting forth any good arguments against legalizing marijuana doesn't mean there aren't valid questions worth discussing. And, more importantly, just because these questions exist doesn't mean they are good arguments against legalizing pot. Below, we'll offer some answers to these questions. Hopefully they'll help foster a debate about legalization that extends beyond "pot should be legal, because getting high isn't a big deal" and "pot should be illegal, because I've been told it's dangerous and I refuse to believe otherwise."
