 Ever felt crushing pressure on your chest at night?
Ever felt crushing pressure on your chest at night?
The most likely cause would be sleep paralysis.
For two University of Nevada students the cause was a car that pinned them to their bed for close to an hour driven into their bedroom at 4:00am by someone with anger-management issues who targeted the wrong house. picked by bingo 14 hours ago

 The Official Shotgun Rules
The Official Shotgun Rules
"Shotgun" is the front passenger seat of an automobile. You must loudly say the word “Shotgun” to stake your claim on it. After you have called it, you have exclusive rights for that ride.

But that’s just the beginning! There are many more rules to learn, such as the importance of having your shoes on when you yell “Shotgun!” and other crucial rules. picked by bingo 15 hours ago

7-Eleven Wine
These days, it seems like everybody and their uncle are making their own wines. Even 7-Eleven (yes, that 7-Eleven).

And, whoa, Yosemite Road is quite the bargain. Both the Chardonnay and a Cabernet Sauvignon will sell for $3.99 a bottle. Who needs a Trader Joe’s, anyway? picked by bingo 15 hours ago

New Zealand bans kids' annual rabbit throw
A fun filled time where kids compete to see how far they can throw a dead rabbit has been banned due to complaints from the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. No word on if they understand that dead rabbits feel no pain.

 We Learn Our Language in the Womb
We Learn Our Language in the Womb
No wonder learning a new language can be more difficult the older you get. We were learning our individual languages before we were even born.
It seems that fetuses not only warm to the sound of mother’s voice as they gestate, they also are being programmed in the direct patterns inherent in certain languages. By the time we are born, our dialect is determined. picked by bingo 16 hours ago

Holocaust Hero Chiune Sugihara

Scheming Homeless, Parking Mafia, and Pink Tutued Meter Fairy....
....Just Another Day in Miami's Parking Hell.

One thing I like about the ‘burbs is not having to fight for cheap parking or pay through the nose for expensive spots. Not so for people in Miami. Apparently, the scarcity of parking there has created much violence, a cottage industry involving the homeless, parking mafia and even a "magical meter fairy." picked by bingo 17 hours ago

Burglar sends newspaper homemade 'mug shot'
An burglar wanted by Welsh authorities didn't like the mug shot published in the local newspaper so he took a new one himself, in front of a police van, and sent it to the newspaper. He might be a little to clever for his own good, however. Authorities were quite happy to have an updated pic. picked by tigertony 21 hours ago

The Delta crew only realized the four-foot piece of metal was missing after it landed in Tokyo—14 hours later. picked by suebe 22 hours ago

Life is Hard for Man Named Harry Potter
Potter told the Daily Mail that, at first, he thought it was cool to have the same name as the whimsical wizard, but now it's just really annoying. As he told the paper, "After 12 years of it I couldn't count the amount of times I've heard 'You're a wizard, Harry.' It does wear a bit thin after a while. And I've heard all the puns about my wand." picked by Chamale 1 day ago

Are Low Fat, Fat Free or Low Carb Products Really That Healthy?
I know a lot of people will try their best to choose low fat, fat free or low carb products because of the latest fad diets, but are they really healthier options? Should you switch to all these “healthier” options just because the packaging makes it look healthier? Don’t stuff your face with these products just yet. picked by Bennuendo 1 day ago

 Building with Whole Trees
Building with Whole Trees
According to research by the Forest Products Laboratory in Madison, run by the USDA, a whole, unmilled tree can support 50 percent more weight than the largest piece of lumber milled from the same tree. So Mr. Gundersen uses small-diameter trees as rafters and framing in his airy structures, and big trees felled by wind, disease or insects as powerful columns and curving beams. picked by cecilberman 2 days ago
