quote [ One suspect in Monday’s Boston Marathon bombings has been captured, according to an official with knowledge of the investigation. Another remains on the loose in Watertown after a firefight with police. Authorities have established a 20-block perimeter as they search for him. ]
Video of firefight and Boston police scanner in the extended. Pretty nuts!

quote [ Megan Thode sued the school and her former professor for giving her a C+ grade in one of her classes. ]
The story is very short, but it's more about what it represents that I want to discuss. There seems to be this endemic problem with my and younger generations. There is a sense of entitlement and rampant narcissism. People just don't want to take personal responsibility anymore. Is it due to how they were raised? A lot of these people come from the "Everyone is a winner!" age of parenting.

quote [ But who really makes the best burger? It's a question that's debated far and wide on the internet and beyond... ]
Interesting little battle. If you've had any one of these three burgers, you know why people think they're the best.

quote [ Back then it was not too much of a big deal going to a Mega Mansion party in Beverly Hills with nude girls because I attended three or four of these a week! ]
Very interesting photographers website. He was a paparazzi back in the 70's and 80's. It's not set up in a stupid manner and he actually tells interesting stories about the photos. Very neat!

quote [ In this update of her pioneering Killing Us Softly series, Jean Kilbourne takes a fresh look at how advertising traffics in distorted and destructive ideals of femininity. ]
Extremely good talk given about advertising and how it affects our perceptions on woman and feminism. I recommend all men and women watch this. It's two parts and very well thought out and put together.
Second part in extended. Posted as NSFW due to sexualized content in the video from the ads it showcases. [by Bodnoirbabe@12:36amGMT] [+10 Interesting] [172 comments] |

Just like the title says. My husband and I were talking about this and thought it was interesting to see what other people thought.
[by Bodnoirbabe@5:49pmGMT] [+10] [105 comments] Basically, in a regular movie, what's your favorite sex scene? A lot of them can be fairly hot without showing much of what's going on. For myself, I nominate the one from "The Watchmen". Bonus that's it's backed by Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah. |

quote [ Presented to you by FlamingLunchbox is a puzzle, originally for Android phones, using a simple idea. Connect the path and win the game. ]
Fun game to pass the time. It's kind of addictive, so you've been warned.
