BASE jumps! If they go wrong, most of the times they are fatal. But not for Maria Steinmayr, who has miraculously survived a failed Extreme BASE jump from the top of the Gran Bali Hotel in Benidorm, Spain. Her parachute failed, making her crash against the building. Hard. Miraculously, she only...
INDIANAPOLIS – This is the seventh time that the Indiana Pacers and New York Knicks have faced off in a playoff series, and in each of the previous matchups the sporting world was treated to tough, defensive-minded basketball that was occasionally difficult to watch. Toss Saturday night’s Game 3...
I've been trying to install snapchat and shazam all day, and the progress bar is only the preliminary one, like it shows no progress with actually downloading the app, and eventually i just end up with a triangle with a ! inside that says it failed to download the app, but when i look on google...
In 2010, Kaspars Daugavins of the Ottawa Senators scored a shootout goal in the AHL that shocked the hockey world: He put the nose of his blade on top of the puck and skated into the offensive zone, before performing a 360-degree spin-o-rama to beat Hamilton Bulldogs goalie Robert Mayer. The...
I have a 2002 sentra SE-R but the test states "catalityc converter insufficiency" also the check engine light has been turned off completely, how much would it cost or is there any other option to pass the smog test??

We all love the Olympics. Even if you don’t like sports, everyone tunes in every four years to root on their country. If you say you don’t hope your country does well, you’re probably lying. However, the Olympics aren’t all about success. Failure is also a big part of the Olympics. Check out...
There's been a lot of harping about the problem with Photoshop lately--most notably, that excessive retouching has made it nearly impossible for women to feel good about their own porous, flawed, dimpled, freckled selves. But according to one actual photo retoucher who spoke with Buzzfeed...
You'd think that with all the "Mark Sanchez vs. Tim Tebow" crap we're going to hear in New York Jets training camp and through the season, everyone would know the difference between the two men. Sanchez is the overrated Metrosexual quarterback, and Tebow is the overrated Puritan quarterback...

A pioneering approach to imaging breast cancer in mice has revealed new clues about why the human immune system often fails to attack tumors and keep cancer in check. This observation, by scientists at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), may help to reveal new approaches to...
I have to say, sometimes at the history reenactment group I go to, sometimes we play musical pieces as part of the historical setting. There is this one person who plays the triangle, and he plays it with such ferocity and mock passion it just cracks me up. Which is a pain as I am usually...
