The Darkhorse Writes His Own Obituary
I was recently reading the obituatries while sitting on the pot at work (don’t ask) and the first one read “Mary Something-or-other, 82 years: Artist. Enjoyed painting and reading to children at the library“. It was at this time that I started to think about A) who writes the obituaries, and B) how do they decide what to say? Now, because it is your loved ones who write the obituary, I do not want mine to say “Darkhorse,105 years: Engineer. …
LaMar Queen, the rapping math teacher
CSM: The class of eighth graders at a Los Angeles middle school tap their rulers and nod their heads to the rhythm of the rap video projected on a screen. It’s not Snoop Dogg or Jay-Z. It’s their math teacher, LaMar Queen, using rhyme to help them memorize seemingly complicated algebra and in the process improve their grades. “It gets stuck in your head,” says Cindy Martinez, a 14-year-old whose math grade went from a C-average to a B.

W2FY Recommends: Bossaball International
I was browsing through ESPN the Magazine while taking a shit the other day, when I stumbled upon an article about Bossaball International.

Being the go-getting young media mogul that I am, I tracked down Wilco Nijland, a founder and International Manager for Bossaball, and got him on the horn for an interview.

The “Sandpit” is the coolest video you’ll see today
So this is fucking sweet. Like really mesmerizing to watch. Sam O’Hare, the photographer, took a couple thousand still shots of New York City using a tilt-shift lens (used one of these in photo class in high school–tons of fun) and strung them together to make this video. The effect is everything appears minaturized. Trust me, you’re gonna wanna watch it (and I recommend it in full screen, high definition). Just wow. Watch The Sandpit from Sam O’Hare on Vimeo.
This is the most heartwarming thing of all time
This warms the cockles of my heart. There’s nothing I like to see more than three deadly animals just chilling the fuck out together. This the best: “Baloo and Share Khan are very close… because they rise very early and as Leo is a lion, he likes to spend most of the day sleeping.” This sounds exactly like my roommates and me! Love it. Also sweet is they are named after the Jungle Book characters. How awesome would be it …
