Reporter makes amazing half court shot

This reporter was doing a story on how the Olathe Kansas HS coach hit an amazing blindfolded halfcourt shot during a pep rally at his school. The reporter takes a shot at it himself during the taping and actually makes it. The expression on his face after sinking the basketball is priceless.

Now I have to try to explain to my mother what a Hipster is

Minnesota 'Most Hipster State in the U.S.'Minnesota was just declared the ‘Most Hipster State in the U.S.’ Here’s why:

Our obsessive bike culture
Our thriving music scene/legacy
Our love of lumberjack chic/flannel
Our abundant farmers’ markets
Our thriving theater scene

BuzzFeed conducted the study based on “research” they have gathered.

Thanks BuzzFeed. Now I have to try to explain to my mother what a Hipster is.

My thoughts on the winning criteria:
Bicycle enthusiasts in this state are a pain in the ass.
The local music scene here is has sucked since about 1998. I’m sorry Tapes ‘n Tapes, you’re just not that good.
Flannel is practical here; not a fashion statement. Paul Bunyan is not interested in going green. He destroys trees for a living!
Farmers markets are money-making machines that do nothing for the environment. Do you know what your grandparents called organic food? They called it “food.”
Since when are rich people at the Chanhassen Dinner Theater hipsters?

Electron microscope images

These pictures are from the book ‘Microcosmos,’ by Brandon Broll of London. This book includes many scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of insects, human body parts and household items. These are amazing images of what is too small to see with the naked eye. Images are from 20X to more than 22 million X magnification.

Spring has sprung on the Dutch countryside

Spring has sprung on the Dutch countryside. The vibrant blues, reds, pinks and yellows sprawl as far as the eye can see in Lisse, western Netherlands, where farmers hope to make huge profits selling them to florists and supermarkets around the world. The fields can hold over 60 million tulips at any one time. Today Holland produces more than nine billion bulbs every year, of which two thirds are exported overseas (mainly to the U.S. and Germany).
