Infographic: Is Your State's Highest-Paid Employee A Coach? (Probably):

The Great Baltimore Space Program of 1928
Ron Miller, io9.com

The prehistory of spaceflight is filled with mad scientists. Some of their work led directly to the development of space exploration…others had a much weirder destiny. Such was the case with Robert Condit, who built a rocket in 1928 that he plan…

The Chart That Might Just Bring Forth The Apocalypse

Having faith in a higher power has nothing to do with a belief in evolution. The two can totally exist in harmony. Yet here we are, thanks to a delightful anti-science campaign that has somehow managed to stoke fear of scientific thought, to our own detriment.

[Original by Tony Piro’s Calamities of Nature. You can see the data behind his chart here.]

“your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
be on the watch.
there are ways out.
there is a light somewhere.
it may not be much light but
it beats the darkness.
be on the watch.
the gods will offer you chances.
know them.
take them.
you can’t beat death but
you can beat death in life, sometimes.
and the more often you learn to do it,
the more light there will be.
your life is your life.
know it while you have it.
you are marvelous
the gods wait to delight
in you.”

- “The Laughing Heart” by Charles Bukowski (via endlessme)
