About filth thresholds. Men have higher filth thresholds. Women will always WANT something to be cleaned earlier on than a man will. Hence, so much hostility around cleaning things. I don't think it's dirty, I'm not going to clean it all on my own. You think it's dirty and would like my help cleaning it, just ask! But we won't do it on our own.

News: NASA 'Puffin' is coolest vehicle since jetpack
Might even be cooler. Stand up helicopter can go horizontal after take-off for speedy (130-300 mph) travel and then land again vertically. Solo flight, 50 mile radius, BATTERY powered.
You know what, nevermind. I don't want a jetpack for Christmas anymore.
Op-Ed: Build transit, not roads, to boost jobs
Building public transportation makes more jobs than building/fixing roads. Wired asks Congress to note this fact when passing the Jobs for Main Street Act.
SCOTUS: Eases restrictions on campaign spending for corporations
We should be STRENGTHENING these limits, not easing them!
Corporations should not be given the power to use profits to influence politics. Individuals, fine...money is speech. Not sure I agree, but fine. But corporations?
Corporations are treated as people, though they shouldn't be. A business makes money from people buy selling products and services these people want. But buying these things is NOT a representation that they also support the businesses political leaning/ambitions. The business should not be treated as a person in this case and there should be NO political contributions from it.
The owner and shareholders of said business should be able to spend their own money freely and openly for whatever political campaign they choose.
Or at least they should be able to for the purposes of this argument.

Risque: Singapore pub offers women free drinks based on bra size
No joke. Probably would be illegal here in the states, but for Singapore, apparenlty OK? The promotion allows A-cup patrons one free drink, B-cups two, C-cups three, and D-cups can claim a free bottle of vodka.
