"I have had four cancer-scrapings, but so what. If I die, I die," the English musician and former leader of The Smiths wrote in an email interview with a Spanish-language newspaper.
Yesterday, NBC and 20th Century Fox TV announced a modern-day sequel to Cameron Crowe's Say Anything (1989). By midnight, the auteur—famous for his films Elizabethtown and We Bought a Zoo, in which a family learns they have bought a zoo—joined star John Cusack on Twitter to deride the production.
Like potato chips, but made with leaves!
Some people even preserve the leaves for a year in salt barrels before frying them, according to Kotaku. They are then fried in a slightly sweet batter made with sugar and sesame for about 20 minutes, until they get crispy.
In this mind-boggling video, singer Anna-Maria Hefele demonstrates polyphonic overtone singing, in which a singer sounds like they are creating two pitches at once. The singer creates two tones — the fundamental and overtone — by altering the shape of their mouth and throat to manipulate resonances in their voice (the two apparent tones are, technically speaking, a single frequency). Overtone singing is found in a number of music traditions around the world, including Tuvan throat singing.

With lots of encouragement from his human, a cautious fainting (myotonic) goat (see previously) named Boo overcomes his fear of jumping off of his gazebo and into the grass in order to get something to eat.
Poor Boo just wants to eat , but he has to tackle the 4 inch step down to get to his grain… it gets him every time!
This informative short video by National Geographic quickly explains why fainting goats faint.
Mrdesplainesyes!
As reported today in Deadline, a nine-episode, present-day sequel to Twin Peaks will premiere on Showtime in 2016, marking the 25th anniversary of the original series' ending. The original dream team is in charge: David Lynch will direct, and will co-write and produce with Mark Frost. It's rumored they're set to reunite with Kyle MacLachlan as FBI Agent and utter whackadoo Dale Cooper, and presumably any number of the other actors Lynch has continued to use throughout the years.
Alfred, an orange tabby kitten, gratefully accepts a can from his human and greedily gulps down what’s left, pitching his head backwards until he gets the very last drop.
First: put on your headphones or turn up the volume, otherwise the beauty of this clip might be lost. Sounds of Paragliding is a new video from director Shams (previously), and sound engineer Thibaut Darscotte who took special equipment into the skies above France to record the sounds of Théo de Blic’s aerobatic paragliding. Instead of amping up the music and intensity like so many high-speed stunt/wingsuit/skydiving videos these days, Shams instead slows everything down to focus on only the sounds created by Blic’s parasail whipping through the air at incredible speed. It doesn’t really get going until after 2:00, but is completely worth it.

The Handie, a made-in-USA, food-grade silicone handjob robot, is seeking funding on Indiegogo. The "all-in one finishing tool for men" does everything: vibrates, simulates penetration, self-lubricates, looks like Thing from the Addams Family with tumors. Everything!

With all the releases going on this season, sometimes its hard to catch everything that runs across our screen. However, this latest from Air Jordan shouldn’t be missed. A silo that has been picking a number of colorways since the summer, this Air Jordan 1 Mid in a Wolf Grey/Tropical Teal is a fresh take on the model that has traditionally been coated in bold reds, blacks, and blues, offering somewhat of a subtle, casual feel. While the main body of the sneaker sees a Wolf Grey coating and the canvas toe box and tongue a darker blue, it’s the vibrant splash of Tropical Teal for the wings logo and the lining that pull this look together. See more of what we mean after the jump and head to those select spots with them in stock, including Sneaker Politics.

The thing about the violent drug-cartel competition in Mexico is that it's not just cops and criminals. In much of the country, self-deputized locals have taken the fight to the drug lords. And to do it, they've DIY'd some insane welded-armor onto their fleet trucks.
The innovative Brush Mouse is a clever twist on the classic smooth-top peripheral device. Unlike the continuous surface of the regular mouse, the pegged design keeps hands from getting sticky and hot. The ergonomic solution also prevents hand fatigue by distributing pressure evenly and giving the hand a mini-massage as it moves! With less material, it’s also thinner, lighter and easier to keep clean. See both prototypes in action after the jump —>

A daring dachshund named Riley went on his very first skydiving trip strapped his adventurous photographer human Nathan Batiste, who said stated that the jump was “the best he’s ever experienced”.
Riley the dog stunned onlookers when he took his daily exercise at 13,000ft by jumping out an aeroplane strapped to his adrenalin-junkie owner. The four-year old Dachshund completed his first ever skydive with owner Nathan Batiste, 38, who claimed it was the best jump he’s ever experienced. Nathan, a photographer from San Francisco, has made more than 400 jumps in his lifetime but this was the first time he had taken his canine companion along. The little dog was kitted out with his very own pair of doggles for the jump and strapped to his owner’s chest.

If you’re looking for something a little more street-ready than the recently-unveiled Cole Haan Zerogrand Tall Boot without sacraficing any protection, then look no further than this Nike Air Max 90 Winterized Sneakerboot – “Black Reflective.” Adding size both out and up, this Air Max adds girth across the black and 3M reflective upper for extra protection against the elements, especially with the addition of the weatherproofing treatment, a re-tooled tongue, heel, and outsole. The premium leather also rises higher up the ankle, giving the reworked take of the iconic silhouette even more of a rugged feel, that is, of course, still grounded with a crisp white midsole.
