“If you can’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?” - RuPaul - - - - - - - - - - - “if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.” - John F. Kennedy - - - - - - - - - - - - “Imagine finding someone you love more than anything in the world, who you would risk your life for but couldn’t marry. And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Elements & Country of Discovery

So if you're into the Elements, you'll especially love this Periodic Table of Elements arranged by the country that discovered them.  

The scientists who discovered each element are shown using the flag of their respective country, and with the help of PhD student, Jamie Gallagher, we have a beautiful table of elements.

What Would Happen If The World Lost Oxygen For 5 Seconds?

Remember what would happen if the sun were to disappear?  It wasn't a pretty outcome, was it?  Well, what would happen if the world lost oxygen for 5 seconds?  Yes, I said 5 seconds.  

At first, I'm thinking, "ah, we'll be alright." lol. But once I found out that everything in this world exists because the perfect amount of oxygen, I had a different outlook on this beautiful chemical element we so desperately need.  And the fact everyone's inner ear would explode.

Things That Make You Go Hmmm... H2O

Hydrogen is an explosive gas. 

Oxygen supports combustion. 

Yet when these are combined it is water which is used to put out fires.
