The article says that the bracelets would audibly prod the workers to "keep working" when it detected inaction longer than twenty minutes. Maybe The Verge could employ this technology to spur on journalists who scribe seven senten

Absolutely. So called "friendly" dolphins are often very sexually aggressive. With knowledge of what aquatic beast lurked in the depths below, I could tailor my preparedness to either be on guard against unwelcome mammalian advanc

If the movie makers did this to avoid copyright infringement, why then couldn't they have created their own lighting pattern for the shot? If the very concept of putting any lights on the tower at night is the copyright, that's a

From the abstract: "Adult cats from two populations (pet and shelter) were presented with three stimuli within each of the following four categories: human social interaction, food, toy, and scent." Cat on cat social interaction w

I agree that obnoxious, vile-quality ads deserve to be combated by the recipient as though on a war footing.

Then there's the flip side with creeps like me. I'm a plant sadist who feeds tofu to my Venus flytrap.

Touché! Such a citation would help elevate my post out of the realm of mere glibness. I must apologize, though, that it wasn’t a court case but an FTC decision: https://www.ftc.gov/sites/default/files/document

Your Voldemort reference was genuinely hilarious. It also evokes a real unnameableness embedded in this subject: that US courts have determined it slanderous to speak the term "ponzi" in describing the DeVos family's great Am

The true disaster here is Wisconsin's derelict education system which lead to the election of a city council incompetent at basic math and inebriated by the siren word "jobs".
