Love Your Body With All Its Perfect Imperfections
If you are a woman, at some point in your life, you have most likely looked at yourself in the mirror and instead of smiling and being happy, you poked and prodded at your body with a crinkled nose, unhappy with what you saw. Why are we like that? Why do we do that to ourselves? I have no idea. I do ...
Fashion Designs That Transform Into Emergency Equipment
Do you know what a prepper is? I just learned about this a few days ago.

Your Daily WTF: Hello Kitty Cigarettes & Lighters
There is no way these are for real, right? I mean, really? Hello Kitty cigarettes? Wait, Hello Kitty is a cat with no mouth, how can she puff on a cigarette? Look at this picture on Wikipedia, there is definitely no mouth. Hmm...
I don't smoke. I don't have anything against anyone who does smoke. ...
The Motherboard City: A Creative Use Of Old Computer Parts
What is it with motherboards, and why can't computer geeks ever seem to get rid of them? I used to think it was because they were difficult to recycle, but in recent years, new ways to recycle old computer parts have been discovered. Now I think it's more of a nostalgia thing. We hold onto old circu ...
A Focus On StumbleUpon: The Rise Of A Social Media Giant
Since my technology company in Atlanta is part of the Apple Consultants Network, I am invited to attend the webinar trainings that Apple puts together. They are always outstanding, and there is a lot to learn each time. Yesterday I attended a social media webinar in which there was a Q&A at the ...
Interactive Digital Art All About Fun Facial Expressions
Almost a year ago, I wrote about how to get a smile full of LEDs and turn your teeth into a cyborg. That little invention, which went viral and made it all the way to the New York Times, was pretty neat. Even though it was a little disturbing, kids all over Japan were running around with their mobil ...
Miss Piggy’s Sexy Photo Shoot: The Muppets Never Get Old
Miss Piggy, who stars in the new movie The Muppets, is currently strutting her stuff on the PR trail. She is showing up everywhere, and she even scored an 8-page photo spread in the November issue of Instyle Magazine which hit newsstands last Friday. Miss Piggy, who has always been my favorite pig, ...
Disney Goes Steampunk: 9 Princesses With Spunky Style

12 Post-It Note Window Designs From Around The World
Have you noticed that Post-It notes have become really popular over the past few years, but not for taking notes?

Star Trek Technology: It’s Closer Than You Think [Infographic]
It's hard to believe that Star Trek has been around for 45 years and spawned 6 television series and 11 movies. We write about Star Trek a lot, and one of our favorite aspects of it (aside from Jeri Ryan as Seven of Nine) is the famous Star Trek technology that has inspired us all for decades. I cou ...

Mummified Barbies: Barbie Dolls Redesigned As Mummies
I can't stop laughing over this, and the ironic thing is, I don't think it's intended to be funny. When you were young, did you ever know those little girls who would swing their Barbie dolls around by the hair or pull their arms out of their little plastic sockets? I did, and I always thought those ...

Drawing With Thread & Pins: A Unique Artistry
I've heard of drawing with all kinds of different materials before, but never with thread. It's hard to believe that as thin as thread is, it could be converted into the elaborate pictures you see below. When I saw these, I thought the artist, Debbie Smyth, drew the illustrations with a pencil or so ...
Childhood Pictures Of Our Favorite Historical Scientists
This sounds like an old person thing to say, but life is really short. We all want to leave our mark and contribute in a way that will be remembered long after we're gone. Steve Jobs is an example of someone who lived his life this way, and he loved that old Wayne Gretzky quote, "I skate to where th ...
