s Curiosities It's not funny, it's not incredibly amazing, but it's a wonderful testament to the goodness inside of all of us. Nerd Paradise Posted on: 10 Cado 7:0 - 5.27.29 So you've procrastinated again. You told yourself you wouldn't do this 2 months ago when your professor assigned you this. Pick a Topic The more "legally-oriented" your topic is, the better. Make a list ...of every possible outcome that this issue could cause in...the near future...the far future...of every person that this topic affects....of any instances where this topic has come in the news....what you would do about this topic if you had the chance/power/enough-sugar...any little detail you can think ofThe important thing about this is to think of ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING, no matter how silly or far-fetched.

Japanese Lady Gaga Fan Fashion Pictures - Day 2 (Build 201004010 On Sunday night (April 18, 2010), Lady Gaga presided over the the second of her two sold-out shows at Yokohama Arena near Tokyo. We had so much fun hanging out with Gaga fans on Saturday (see our previous article, Lady Gaga’s Little Japanese Monsters) that we decided to head back out to Yokohama for Day Two. As we expected, a party atmosphere was in full effect hours before the concert doors even opened. We saw some familiar faces (many hardcore Lady Gaga fans went to both shows) and met a lot of cool fans that we hadn’t seen on the first day. Of course we brought our cameras with us, and once again the Japanese Lady Gaga fans amazed and impressed us with their over-the-top fashion. Before we get to the pics, we’d like to thank all of the Gaga fans who were nice enough to talk to us and to pose for our pictures on both days. As usual, we recommend the you click on the photos to see them at full size – the bigger the better! Remember to click the pictures to see high resolution versions!

The 3 Best Free MMO Games Available Online Everquest, while not the first MMO, was the genre’s most amazing success story. Suddenly everyone wanted a piece of the pie, and numerous subscription-based games were created, although most of them were crushed by World of Warcraft. Today, however, a huge number of game developers and publishers across the globe have teamed up to create whole set of free MMO games which allow players to enjoy content without cost. There are literally hundreds of free-to-play games available, but to be honest, most of them are terrible. Anyone who has enjoyed World of Warcraft or any other quality MMO will find that most free mmo games feel like they’re free simply because no one would buy them. But there are some exceptions, and the exceptions are very, very good. Dungeons & Dragons Online: Eberron Unlimited Dungeons and Dragons Online has lived an odd life. D&D Online’s roots as a subscription base game purchased at retail gives it a large advantage over other free-to-play MMOs. Allods Online

The Mysterious “Mirror Man” appears in L.A. — Illusion 360 - The World's most amazing Art, Design, Technology and Video When I first looked at the photos of “mirror man,” I thought it was a sculpture. But photographer SilverSky took these pictures and commented: “I was in LA and this guy shows up in a suit from head to toe made of glass. I thought it was pretty cool.” So now it is clear, that it is a man in costume. Update (September 21st, 2010): Thanks to reader Fourfirearts for sending the following information: “the ‘mirror man’ aka ‘The Collector’ is artist Gustav Troger of San Francisco and Vienna.

Reading anything on the Internet has become a full-on nightmare. It’s almost like listening to talk radio, except the commercials play during the program in the background. Recently, Mandy Brown wrote a wonderful article for A List Apart called In Defense Of Readers. Despite the ubiquity of reading on the web, readers remain a neglected audience. Mandy is spot on – and her concerns are even more salient in today’s cram-all-the-ads-on-one-page Web.

Alternate Sleep Cycles Most people only think that there is one way to sleep: Go to sleep at night for 6-8 hours, wake up in the morning, stay awake for 16-18 hours and then repeat. Actually, that is called a monophasic sleep cycle, which is only 1 of 5 major sleep cycles that have been used successfully throughout history. The other 4 are considered polyphasic sleep cycles due to the multiple number of naps they require each day. How is this possible? How is this healthy? Well the most important of every sleep cycle is the Stage 4 REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep, which has been shown to provide the benefits of sleep to the brain above all other stages of sleep. This way, you still get the benefits of 8 hours of sleep without wasting all of the time it takes to get to REM cycles, resulting in a much more efficient sleep cycle.
