A Hollow Shell Of Humanity: College Freshwoman | Runt Of The Web College Freshwoman, daughter of High-Expectations Asian Father and Sheltering Suburban Mom, and sister and peer of College Freshman, is the epitome of unprepared for life on her own.

6 Real People With Mind-Blowing Mutant Superpowers If the insane, explosive popularity if superhero movies is any indication, we are fascinated by people who are insanely better than us at any given thing. Probably because, in real life, we're all such a bunch of incompetent boobs that we've been enslaved by blue paint, flashing lights and crying French babies. But it turns out, superpowers are real. We've all dreamed of having superpowers at some point (today), but the majority of us have to accept the sobering reality that preternatural abilities simply aren't possible. For instance ... #6. Ma Xiangang is a man capable of something not many others are or would have a practical reason to be -- he can touch live wires filled with scrotum-popcorning electricity and feel no pain whatsoever. As with most superpower discoveries, Xiangang found his by acting like a braying jackass. CRI English.com"I figured I'd either die or get superpowers. So What's Going on Here? #5.

What Is This? Mysterious Amazon Web Baffles Scientists A bizarre-looking web structure has been found in the Peruvian Amazon, and apparently nobody knows what it is, not even scientists. The strange formation resembles a tiny spire surrounded by a webby picket fence and is about 2 centimeters (0.8 inches) wide. Georgia Tech graduate student Troy Alexander first spotted one of these on the underside of a tarp near the Tambopata Research Center in the Peruvian Amazon. At first he thought it might have been an aborted moth cocoon, he wrote on Reddit. But then he found several more, all of which looked quite similar. He posted the photos to Reddit and asked other scientists to help him out, besides making queries around the Tambopata Research Center, to no avail. Chris Buddle, an arachnologist at McGill University, said that neither he nor any of his associates know what it is. "I have no idea what animal made that," Norman Platnick, curator emeritus of spiders at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, told LiveScience.
Bay of Fundie» Blog Archive » Asshole Jesus I’ve seen the original versions of these pictures floating around the internet for quite a while now. They’re somehow supposed to be “inspirational”. I find the whole idea that there’s an invisible guy following me around and watching everything I do to be quite creepy. Maybe that’s just me. Anyway, I found these recaptioned versions over at Boredville. Update: 7/5/10 I was able to track down the original source for these drawings. You can find more of these great recaptioned versions over at Know Your Meme, in the “Jesus is a Jerk” sub-meme of “LOL Jesus”.

In Trier und Umgebung kommt es sogar noch seltener zu Verwechslungen, weil das Verb "nehmen" in der dortigen Umgangssprache praktisch nicht existiert. Wo unsereins "nehmen" sagt, da sagt der Trierer "holen". Das gilt auch für Zusammensetzungen. So fragt der Trierer: "Kannst du mich mitholen?", wenn er mitgenommen werden will. Die Porta Nigra in Trier: "Ich hol das Hühnerfrikassee!" Im Trierer Land wird wenig genommen, dafür umso mehr geholt. Zugegeben: Es ist ganz schön verwirrend. Als ich selbst einmal einen Herrn aus Trier nach einem gemeinsamen Restaurantbesuch fragte, ob ich ihn im Taxi mitnehmen könne, antwortete er höflich: "Lassen Sie nur, ich hol den Bus!" Das Holen-statt-Nehmen-Phänomen ist eine Besonderheit des Moselfränkischen und daher auch im Saarland verbreitet. Geben ist seliger denn nehmen, heißt es in der Bibel.

Virtually everything you own is at least partially composed of plastic, and that’s usually a very good thing. Plastic is light, inexpensive, and can be molded in any shape. However, it’s not always the strongest material. Many smartphone owners know the sorrow of dropping a phone and finding the fall cracked or chipped the casing. The carefully designed molecular structure of the material is what gives it this unusual property. When the polymer chains are tugged or experience shock, they tear on one side. The researchers included a molecule called a carboxylate in this plastic to utilize those bonding sites. The Duke team conducted a variety of tests to ensure this new mechanophore was actually making new bonds consistently. This isn’t just a cool science experiment, though.
