Actually, for really long free climbs like this one (and I think this is Alex Honnold) they set up a belay anchor system at the top where the photographers hang down from, floating in air, not attached to the wall in any way, which is kinda even more badass.

the Phaistos disc is actually so baller because early Greek civilizations wrote in two languages, Linear B which has been deciphered, and Linear A, which is on the disc and is impossible to read. but maybe 8 weeks ago someone actually deciphered the words "mother goddess" on the disc, and now we are much closer to understanding the Minoan Civ!!!

The cheap gas actually is in fact hurting the economy in Russia. Props to Obama, not dissing him though. But in Russia, where oil is the main source of export and income, it has drastically increased the price of other things. Putin had a major role in this, not properly handling the situation.

Looking into a mirror in the room (without actually being there), it would slowly fade into green, so the entire room would become a greenish tint. This is because most standard mirrors reflects some greens instead of absorbing them to make them part of the image.

Climate change doesn't necessarily mean global warming. It includes both massive scale rises and falls in temperatures. This past winter was one of the warmest world wide, a result of climate change. It was also unusually cold in the US, also because if climate change. There was a tornado warning in BOSTON last week. If that's not from climate change, then what caused it??
