Candy Corn on the COB!:
As I was digging into a fresh bag of candy corn, an idea suddenly jumped into my mind. Why do we have candy corn kernels and not a full cob of candy corn? Clearly this is an imbalance in the world that needed to be fixed.

Ride a Scooter, Send Your Mom to Jail
There's plenty of Texas-sized outrage after a Houston area mother was arrested for charges of child neglect while she watched them play on their scooters in front of her. She had to spend the night in jail, and now is suing La Porte Police Department, the officer, and one nosy neighbor.
KPRC reports the whole story started when mom, Tammy Cooper, was sitting on her front porch watching her two kids, ages nine and six, play on their scooters in their calm, suburban cul-de-sac.
For some horrible reason, her neighbor called the police on her for apparently abandoning her children.
There are scary times. Most netizens can’t help but express that even if mom was inside making lunch there’s nothing wrong with kids playing outside unsupervised, and that police were never the answer. Couldn’t Nosy Neighbor first check on mom first before calling in the SWAT team?

Thinking of Opening a Hedgehog Racing Franchise
Don't be a slow hedgehog. A cautionary tale from Seth Godin:
For fifty years, it was a national disgrace.
Motor cars in the UK often left behind road kill. Hedgehogs would meander across the road and splat.
Today, you hardly see that anymore. One reason is that there are fewer hedgehogs due to suburbanization. The real reason, though, is that slow hedgehogs became former hedgehogs, which meant that they were unable to produce more slow hedgehog kids. The new hedgehogs are fast.
Draw your own organizational analogy.

It's all about the Green Coffee Bean Extract. So says Dr. Oz.

Want to try it? Dr. Oz warns to avoid being followed by false advertising, whether via marketing labels misusing his name (he does not endorse products) or those claiming they are "pure." The green coffee bean supplement should contact chlorogenic acid extract, which can be listed as either GCA (green coffee antioidant) or Svetol, says Dr. Oz.

Gallagher 2.0 - Using Mind Power to Blow Up Watermelons
A group of hackers from Kentucky have modified a Star Wars Force Trainer toy to allow users to blow up a watermelon. Using only their mind.
Members of the Louisville, Ky.-based hacker group LVL1 modified the toy to be able to trigger any event of their choosing once the headgear detects adequate brain activity. In their first project, called Mind over Melons, the device is connected to an air compressor, and then a watermelon is shoved on top.
With enough concentration, the compressor blows up a watermelon in a spectacular display of the mind. The Mind over Melons project was shown at Connect, a technology and art event in Bernheim Forest in Kentucky, in August.

Filed under, “No, really, this could only happen in Canada“:
TORONTO—Sticky-fingered thieves made off with as much as 30 million Canadian dollars (US$30.4 million) worth of maple syrup from a little-known strategic reserve in rural Quebec—leaving authorities to investigate just how much is missing and where it has gone.We’re picturing the strategic Canadian syrup reserve being guarded by packs of vicious moose. We’ll check to see if we’re right.
The Federation of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers said late Thursday that during a routine inventory check at a facility that stores some 10 million pounds of syrup, inspectors discovered barrels had been emptied and reported “missing a large quantity of maple syrup.”
Quebec produces about 75% of the world’s maple syrup. Despite the theft, the federation said there would be no immediate impact on world-wide syrup supply.

In court documents, Kathleen Melker of 55 Harris Ave. asserts she was within earshot of Willy, her neighbor's pet, when he repeatedly called her "whore." The incident, she says, punctuated an acrimonious relationship with Lynne Taylor of 51 Harris Ave. that she says included Taylor pelting rocks over the fence and threats to capture Melker's cat and "drown it in the Bay." No charges have been filed.
Taylor -- and Willy -- are now being accused in Municipal Court of violating the city's animal-noise ordinance.

Happy Cows Reportedly Happy With Outcome.
A California judge has thrown out a lawsuit filed by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) seeking to stop California dairy farmers from running TV ads touting how happy, healthy and well-cared for dairy herds are.
PETA, which filed the lawsuit in 2011, had argued that the California Milk Advisory Board and the California Department of Food and Agriculture had violated state rules that bar misleading or inaccurate marketing with the “Happy Cows” ads.
The animal rights group had demanded that California dairy farmers prove that California cows are “happy cows,” as the milk board claimed in the ads.

You'll Feel All Warm and Hugged, But Look Abducted
Seems somebody needs a hug. And that somebody should be voted off the island ASAP. Unless the hands can actually perform a useful function. hmmm thinking. From laughingsquid.com: Hug Me, A Fashion Line Designed To Make People Feel Warm & Hugged:

Fashion designer Si Ieong Chan has created Hug Me, a Fall/Winter 2012-2013 collection of men’s outerwear that includes a green puffy jacket with five sets of interlocking hands, a pink gingham suit with wrapping/grabbing hands and more. The line is meant “to express how the (dis) connection between people to people and the loneliness…” More images of the collection are available at Chan’s website.

In order to make people feel warm and hugged, some of the clothes would be padding and the hands (gloves) would be adding wad to make it looks puffy as childish soft toys. Some pieces are also to keep repeating a certain part (For example, sleeves) to make people feeling full and not alone or enlarge the scale by magnifying a certain part on clothes, which makes people feel a sense of relief.????

Getting Extreme with the Trampo-Walling Crew
From theadrenalist.com: What is Trampo-Walling?:
Trampo-walling, if it wasn’t obvious, involves a trampoline and a 5 meter wall. You use the trampoline to jump to the edge of the wall, before falling back down again and repeating the process. Various tricks are then implemented.
The extreme sports landscape is fluid. For a blossoming, and still ancillary, niche of the sporting world, there’s plenty of room for improvements and for invention. It’s a testament to Adrenalists the world over that stagnancy has never been extreme sports’ problem. That’s why new sports, like Trampo-Walling, are so interesting. They’re not even on the cusp of mainstream acceptance, like ESPN’s ubiquitous X-Games events, but they’re still practiced and tweaked by a minority that can’t wait to try something dangerous and unknown. We even covered the sport early in its creation with our Elevating the Trampoline feature.

Most Extreme Cliff Diving Spots - Red Rock Park, Vermont
Living vicariously through: Most Extreme Cliff Diving Spots:
Red Rock Park, Vermont
This park in South Burlington is probably one of the more dangerous places to dive. The water in Lake Champlain is cold enough to take your breath away (if the jump hasn’t already), and the narrow cliff walls can sandwich a jumper that’s not careful about avoiding the adjacent rock face. The 80-foot jumps are not for beginners, but then again, most of these places should come with a warning and a guide. Between the numerous obstacles, the height and the mental tnesion, Red Rock Park is one of the most extreme places a cliff diver could try to tackle.

A small California-based firm called Aerofex revived a flawed concept craft created in the 60s and fixed it. Long gone are the clunky controls that caused the bike to rollover or flip, throwing the rider to the ground, or worse. Now the bike is controlled intuitively; to balance the bike a rider must just shift his weight and balance himself.
So far the Aerofex has been tested up to 30 mph and 15 feet off the ground, but the company says the vehicle can go much faster and higher than that, not that it needs to, however. As Space.com notes, the Aerofex may hold most promise as an off-road emergency vehicle, ferrying medical supplies and expertise over rough terrain to otherwise unreachable places of need.

Missing woman joins search for herself
Funny Hall of Fame: ‘Missing’ woman unknowingly joins search for herself:

Oh, toads on fire, this is so funny:
We all know EXACTLY what went through her mind right then: “Scotty…one to beam up. Scotty?”
Oh, toads on fire, this is so funny:
A group of tourists spent hours Saturday night looking for a missing woman near Iceland’s Eldgja canyon, only to find her among the search party.At 3 a.m., with fifty people combing the region, the woman finally had a “Hold on…” moment, and realized it was her that they – and she – had been looking for.
The group was travelling through Iceland on a tour bus and stopped near the volcanic canyon in the southern highlands Saturday afternoon, reports the Icelandic news organization mbl.is.
One of the women on the bus left to change her clothes and freshen up. When she came back, her busmates didn’t recognize her.
Soon, there was word of a missing passenger. The woman didn’t recognize the description of herself, and joined in the search.
We all know EXACTLY what went through her mind right then: “Scotty…one to beam up. Scotty?”

Messin With Sasquatch - Montana Style
KALISPELL, Mont. — A man dressed in a military-style "ghillie" suit and apparently trying to provoke reports of a Bigfoot sighting in northwest Montana was struck by two cars and killed, authorities said.
The man was standing in the right-hand lane of U.S. Highway 93 south of Kalispell on Sunday night when he was hit by the first car, according to the Montana Highway Patrol. A second car hit the man as he lay in the roadway, authorities said.
Flathead County officials identified the man as Randy Lee Tenley, 44, of Kalispell. Trooper Jim Schneider said motives were ascertained during interviews with friends, and alcohol may have been a factor but investigators were awaiting tests.

Tropical Storm Isaac Headed Where You Would Expect
MIAMI, Aug. 27 (UPI) -- Tropical Storm Isaac, expected to become a hurricane, pointed toward Louisiana Monday and people in three states were told to evacuate.
The storm had New Orleans in the center of its path, nearly seven years to the day the city was devastated by Hurricane Katrina.
Governors of Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi declared states of emergency and tens of thousands of people were ordered to evacuate.
And yes, we think this is just the car to outrun a hurricane:

The Face-kini, China's New Beach Trend
A full head mask, also known as a ‘face-kini', accompanied by a long-sleeve bodysuit, is the latest summer accessory in China.
As reported by international media outlets, including The New York Times, the ultimate alternative to sunblock in China is a full head mask with openings for the eyes and mouth. Women wearing the protective mask can be seen at a beach in the Shandong province in east China.
According to the Daily Mail, the mask, designed seven years ago, also protects from insects and jellyfish and is available for 15 to 25 Yuan ($2.3 to $3.9).
The summer accessory is worn by Chinese women who prefer to have pale skin over a suntan. Traditionally in Asia, a tan has been associated with physical labor in rural areas, whereas paler skin indicates a certain status.
