WHY YOU SHOULDN'T SLEEP IN ON THE WEEKEND (SORRY)

To quote the great film, Friday Night Lights, "it's an ugly fact of life" that the restful joy of sleeping in on the weekend will most likely be followed by a brutal wake-up come Monday morning. Sleeping in on the weekend is tempting, especially if you don't feel like you're getting enough sleep during the work week. But while temporarily satisfying, those extra hours may do more harm than good. Inverse

It's the end of an era. James Earl Jones, 91, recently announced his retirement as the voice of the baddest MF in the galaxy: Darth Vader.

THE HUMAN ENTERPRISE IS IN A DEATH SPIRAL

In a world where Arizona is just as hot as parts of the country that normally are not that hot, where rights are being stripped away, and where politics have divided us between those that believe in truth and science, and those who, well … don't, it's not hard to believe that the human family isn't slowly spiraling downward and circling the bottomless drain of obsolescence.

While he was talking about human connection, we're talking about clean energy. Hydrogen is the lightest and most abundant element in the world and it's potential for energy use is unparalleled. Alas, there are many obstacles, ugly truths, and a hard road ahead before it can succeed. Year 2049
