Yesterday we launched a new feature we are very excited about: A new layout for individual quotes. The problem with our previous solution was that when you shared quotes to Twitter and Facebook and someone clicked on the link the person would end up on a page only containing a headline and a blue quote without any hint what’s going on. Those times are over.

Atmospheric scientists try for years to piece together what happened, but no explanation is forthcoming. Eventually, they give up, and the unexplained meteorological phenomenon is simply dubbed a “Skrillex Storm”—because, in the words of one researcher, “It had one hell of a drop.”

Helmut Newton adored her – from a distance. "When I was modelling, he would call me all the time to work and then, when I got there, he would say, 'Oh my God, I forgot you don't have big tits', and send me back. Then we ended up working together quite a lot, and my tits didn't matter any more because he loved my legs. Hehehehe!"

    QUOTEfm Is there anyone more fascinating than Grace Jones? You have to see her appearance in "James Bond – A View to a Kill" as May Day. Impressive.

    mkuhnt I think she's more like a wild and frenetic animal. But for some of us this can be fascinating.

How much can you really know about yourself until you've looked down the barrel of a gun pointed between your eyes? It was late Halloween night. I was 15 years old and had been out at a friend's house a couple of streets away from mine, in upper middle class suburban America. I decided it was time to head home, so I started walking, that's when the car rolled up next to me.

Yes, indie is a label, not the actual description of a game. It raises expectations, though. Indies are puzzle platformers, chiptunes and chunky pixels, simple game mechanics with complex outcomes. Shooters are not indie, particularly not when they belong to the greyish-brown variety of military manshoots.

I want all the attractive women I knew in high school and college to read it. I want them to be amazed and impressed and feel a vague regret over their decision not to have sex with me, and maybe if I get divorced or become a widower, I can have sex with them someday at a reunion. I want Hollywood to buy my article and turn it into a movie, even though they kind of already made the movie ten years ago with Jim Carrey. I want to get congratulatory e-mails and job offers that I can politely decline. Or accept if they're really good. Then get a generous counteroffer from my boss.

I was an undercover car salesman for Edmunds.com, sent to a dealership, which sent me to a seminar, which sent me to another dealership as an undercover shopping evaluator. I guess that made me a triple agent. Very good lines.

So, we made sure that our impressive-looking credentials were clearly visible on our chests, we grabbed some sheets of paper off a nearby table, and pretended we were talking about something very important and serious as we walked through the entrance to the party, ignoring the guards, like we were important people who owned the place.

As the man descends the hill, navigating the vines, he exudes the purpose of someone who knows precisely where he’s headed and what must be done when he gets there. All around him the vine rows are so uniformly straight it’s evident they have been meticulously arranged, painstakingly cultivated. At one particular vineyard, the man stops.

They are ordinary men in extraordinary costumes, and they have risen from the ashes of our troubled republic to ensure the safety of their fellow citizens.
