Star Trek Enterprise Almost Became A Las Vegas Mega Attraction
There are plenty of mad builds being created in the world, and I am not talking about Lego builds right now.

The Rise Of The Slacktivist [Infographic]
I read an article on the Forbes website the other day called 2012 Time 'Person' Of The Year Prediction: The Slacktivist, and I didn't know what that meant. I had never heard of the word slacktivist before. After researching it a little more, I realize I know a lot of slacktivists, and at times, I've ...
15 Nature Photos We Didn’t Get To See

Everything You Ever Wanted To Know About Beards [Beardographic]
Until a few years ago, I've always thought guys with beards were like an enigma, a mystery wrapped in a riddle. Now I have a very close friend who sports a beard every so often, and I've learned to accept it a little more. As a woman, I cannot for the life of me understand why a guy would want all t ...
Jedi Mind Tricks For Moms: 7 Ways To Put Your Baby To Sleep
I only have one child, and he's 11-years-old, so I haven't been a new mom for many years. I remember though what it was like to try to put him to sleep when he was fussy.

Some people like Coca-Cola while others prefer Pepsi. Just like Apple and Microsoft, there are two camps and a "battle" going on about who enjoys the best drink.

The History Of April Fools Day [Video]
I don't think I have to tell anyone that yesterday was April Fools Day. I mean, if you "missed" it, that alone must have been a joke you fell for.
