When you really think about it, commuting is a recipe for disaster. You need to get to your soul-sucking job, or you already had an awful day at that soul-sucking job, so you hop into a metal box that can travel extremely fast, then maneuver it onto...
Update: Woohoo! Yay! Hell yeah! The World Health Organization has just now come out stating that, as far as they can tell, there’s no real evidence that our companion animals — dogs and cats, at least — can be infected by the new coronavirus, or COVID-19. Now,...
In January, researchers at the University College in London reported that watching a movie in theaters may be considered a light workout, suggesting that you actually miss out by watching entire movies in your bathroom, not in theaters. A workout from literally sitting on your butt? Fifty-one moviegoers were...
No one likes being controlled. Think back on your childhood: Parents telling you what to eat, what to say, who you could hang out with, where you could go. Remember what you did? Probably something along the lines of getting an eyebrow pierced and smoking cigarettes in...

So you want to eat a little bit better, but refuse to subsist entirely on sad salads and depressing handfuls of mixed nuts? Good news: You can have the best of both worlds — that is, good health and good food — so long as you mind...
If the modern automobile had a status on Facebook, it would undoubtedly be “It’s complicated.” With their computer-controlled fuel-injection systems, continuously variable transmissions and three-phase four-pole AC induction motors, the days when every Tom, Dick or Harry could wrench on their ride seem long gone. So let...
