In 2009, a scientist wanted clouds be given their own species name.




When you notice the bubbles are falling down, you'll realize these divers are actually walking upside down on the underside of the ice on a frozen lake. Neat huh?

Leatherback turtle has no idea how awesome he/she is.


The giant creature, estimated to measure between 5 and 6.5 feet long, befriended some boaters in New Zealand on Tuesday.

This giant leatherback joined some boaters off Mangawhai, New Zealand on Tuesday ― and as the clip posted on Facebook by Pippa Partington shows, the big guy was very chill about the whole encounter.

*A similarly large turtle, to show perspective.



Partington told New Zealand’s 1 News Now that the turtle in this case appeared to be between 5 and and 6.5 feet long. It was so big, she first thought it was a capsized dinghy.

Leatherback sea turtles are listed as “vulnerable” on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.

First Dinosaur Tail Found Preserved in Amber



The tail of a 99-million-year-old dinosaur, including bones, soft tissue, and even feathers, has been found preserved in amber, according to a report published today in the journal Current Biology.



While individual dinosaur-era feathers have been found in amber, and evidence for feathered dinosaurs is captured in fossil impressions, this is the first time that scientists are able to clearly associate well-preserved feathers with a dinosaur, and in turn gain a better understanding of the evolution and structure of dinosaur feathers.



*How cool is this?!

Denver Police SEIZING Blankets From Homeless As Evidence Of Violation Of Camping Ban.


Temperatures in Denver have been 20 degrees to 0 degrees overnight. Shelters are over capacity. No new shelters are planned.

It is against the law in Denver to lay down on public space. You can be arrested and ticketed for violating a "camping ban" since the days of the Occupy Movement. Denver was one of the most aggressive cities in the country to dismantle the Occupy Movement. Back then even if you honked in support when driving by the encampment you were stopped and ticketed.

Local news in Denver on Friday showed Denver police taking all the blankets of homeless people who were on the street. The city has taken an aggressive stance and is seizing all the belongings of homeless people. They claim they are trying to force them to go to shelters. It is doubtful there is enough space in the shelters that are available.

Some shelters are run by religious organizations where you must pray for your supper. There are virtually no programs to help the homeless changer their fate.

So where are homeless people supposed to go. Home prices in Colorado are exploding beyond affordability for anyone even at $15 an hour. Rents are at a record high and vacancy rates are at record lows.

Former ‘Brady Bunch’ Star Under Fire After Report Of Homophobic Rant

Susan Olsen, aka “Cindy Brady,” may have even lost her talk show gig.


Susan Olsen, the former child star who played Cindy Brady on “The Brady Bunch,” is under fire after allegedly unleashing a slur-filled rant against one of her critics.

On Wednesday, activist and producer Leon Acord-Whiting slammed Olsen after appearing as a guest on Two Chicks Talkin’ Politics, a show that Olsen co-hosted with Sheena Metal on LA Talk Radio. He accused Olsen of spreading “outrageous misinformation,” including the idea that a person can’t be a liberal and a patriot at the same time.

Leon Acord-Whiting

It is wildly irresponsible for LA Talk Radio to allow a Trump fanatic to co-host one of their programs, where she can spew her idiotic lies unchecked. (Being a liberal and a patriot are mutually exclusive? Hillary is causing the protests & hate crimes? The Koran is a political tract?) As much as I love Sheena Metal, I think LA Talk Radio needs to give "Cindy Brady" her walking papers. I will not listen to or appear on any shows there from this point forward until she's gone. This isn't just disagreeing on, say, tax plans or foreign policy. Susan Olsen spreads outrageous misinformation & it is dangerous and unprofessional.

Olsen responded with her own Facebook post, calling Acord-Whiting a “little piece of human waste.”

This is the little piece of human waste. He blocked himself from me before I could even get one hit in. If you can find him, please send him my love.



Acord-Whiting said Olsen took things one step further in a private message. He posted a screenshot that appears to show Olsen going off on a tirade and repeatedly calling him a “faggot”:

Olsen’s comments may come as a surprise to those who remember when she spoke out in support of marriage equality three years ago. In 2013, she posted a moving tribute to Robert Reed, the reportedly closeted gay actor who played father Mike Brady on “The Brady Bunch.” She suggested that Reed could “never make peace with himself” because of the way society treated queer men.

What happened to the sweet little Cindy Brady?

Woman tracks down stranger who hugged her in saddest moment of her life





All she knew is that the woman looked to be in her 30s and had short black hair streaked with purple.

And that this mystery woman was incredibly tender and compassionate with Mott when she was at her grief-stricken worst in the middle of a store aisle on the morning of Black Friday. You know the scene: Typical behavior on the High Holy American shopping day after Thanksgiving is to stampede directly to some cheap plastic thing and trample everything and everybody in the way.

But Mott was graced by a more serene fellow shopper at 6:25 a.m. in the middle of Mills Fleet Farm in Ankeny, just as she received a devastating phone call.

Mott wasn’t there on a shopping spree; she only needed a pair of dog beds for her German shepherds, especially her decrepit 12-year-old pooch, Killer, whose bones ache on her hardwood floors.

That’s when the call came in from the nursing home on the south side of Des Moines where her mom lived.

“Angel, honey,” said the nurse on the phone, “your mom passed away.”

“Hoping you nice people can help me find a lady. I was out shopping on Black Friday at six in the morning at Mills Fleet Farm in Ankeny. In the middle of shopping I got a phone call that my mom had passed away. I sat down on the shelf in the aisle and must've bawled for several minutes. Some nice lady with black hair (I think) and purple highlights, sat down with me and hugged me for about five minutes. She cried with me. I would just like to thank her very much. Not one person stopped to see if I was OK. But her and her sister did and I appreciate that more than they'll ever know! My mom was my best friend. I felt like my heart was ripped out of my chest. She was only 57. I'm only 31, I still need my momma!”
