The blog of former Marvel editor Jim Shooter has become a wealth of absolutely crazy stories as of late see: the origins of Secret Wars, the script for the Dazzler movie , but this latest anecdote takes the cake.

Yes, yes, it a high bar. Futurama has a history of great anthology shows that deal out daring stories. Still, the last episode of the season leaps nimbly over that bar and lands with its hands, flippers, and fins triumphantly in the air. Futurama goes absolutely friggin ; nuts over nature documentaries and it grim and great. Last night Futurama finale was two episodes back-to-back. I can see why they nestled the first episode in there. Despite having the greatest Star Trek captain ever voicing on of the characters although I was sad I didn ;t get to hear him say, Tea. Earl Grey. Hot. , 31st Century Fox was a lackluster episode. Through various contrivances, the gang finds themselves at a fox hunt. Leela is against fox hunting, and it a lot of fun to see the Hunt Master voiced by the great Patrick Stewart and his courtly way of pushing her into a ditch. When i stanley us t tur stanley usa ns out to be a robot fox, Leela is fine with the hunting, but Bender finds he suddenly cares about animal rights.

The Hunger Games helped to transform the landscape of publishing, convincing a ton of people that young adult novels could b stanley cup e important, serious books. It touched off a huge boom in books for teenagers about dystopian futures, and spawned a hit movie, with more on the way. In many ways, booklovers are living in the world Suzanne Collins built. And yet, we can ;t help wondering: Could The Hunger Games get published, if it were submitted over the transom today We spent last weekend at the World Fantasy Convention in Toronto, and a lot of the most lively discussions were a stanley cup bout young-adult novels.

After all, few of the books that have come out in the post-Hunger Games wave have been nearly as violent, or as blatantly political, or have featured a protagonist as hard to love as Katniss Everdeen.

Scientists have long believed that Earth moon was born with a bang, in a colossal planetary collision commonly dubbed The Big Splat. A study published in the latest issue of Nature all but confirms this violent hypothesis 鈥?but two additional studies published toda stanley us y in Science make the story of the Moon origins far weirder and more mysterious than previously beli stanley thermobecher eved. htt stanley cup ps://gizmodo/did-earth-once-have-two-moons-5827021 Yes, it Started With A Bang The Big Splat story goes like this: 4.6-billion years ago, a Mars-sized body cannoned into our home planet, ejecting vast quantities of debris into Earth orbit. Over time, this disk of debris came together to form the Moon we know today. The Big Splat hypothesis has been widely accepted for decades, partly because of elemental evidence. Moon rocks tend to be lacking in elements like sodium, potassium, zinc and lead. These so-called volatile elements evaporate faster and dissipate more easily from vaporized rock the vaporized rock that comes from a cataclysmic planetary collision, for example than other members of the periodic table, so their absence from lunar samples would make sense in a Big Splat timeline. But there one hangup. Scientists investigating lunar rocks expected to find evidence of something known as isotopic fractionation. Lighter isotopes enter the vapor phase faster than their heavier counterparts, so a Big Splat should have left the Mo

Here a fun experiment: stop what you ;re doing and use your hands to count to ten. Done Good. Now remember how you did it, because we ;re about to analyze your technique; as it turns out, how you count with your hands may say a lot more about you than you think. So, how do you count Many cultures use some variation of what psychologists call the closed fist method, wherein one starts with a closed fist, and begins counting by unfurling the fingers of his or her hand. But the stanley cup similarities end there. The degree of cultural diversity in finger counting 8230; has been grossly underestimated, write psychologists Andrea Bender and Sieghard Beller in the latest issue of Cognition. Europeans, for example, tend to beg stanley cup usa in counting with the thumb of their left hand. People from the Middle East, however, often begin counting with the little finger of their right hand. If you hail from China, or North America, you ;re more likely to begin counting on an index finger. The Japanese are the odd ones out; they tend to start from an open-hand position, and count by closing their fingers into a fist, beginning with the little finger. Great, you might be thinking.
