This is pretty a fun and addictive Java game to play with. You can add wind vectors and watch their effect on the particles that are flying through the screen. Yes, I am a geek, but we already knew that...

Men's Fashion

Esquire presents a basic primer on the fundamentals of choosing and wearing men's dress shirts and ties. This is some important information that every man should know. Even if you're not into fashion, dress is important in many cultural arenas.

Global Warming

This article explores a great example of how much damage global warming can do. The article looks at the detrimental effects of global warming on the delicate ecosystem surrounding the process of decomposition of leaf litter on the forest floor.
