Chinese moon plants

China became the first nation to land a spacecraft on the far side of the moon.

Turns out, the experiment back in January was more successful than initially thought. It marks the first time a plant has been grown on the moon.

It’s only October, so what’s with all these bushfires? New research explains it
Chris Lucas, Australian Bureau of Meteorology; Sarah Harris

Bureau of Meteorology researchers painstakingly analysed more than 40 years of data to work out exactly what is causing Australia's spring bushfire phenomenon.

The Coalition has been promoting its $7 billion drought relief package, but critics say what’s needed is a more effective national drought policy. Dan Peled/AAP
A national drought policy should be an easy, bipartisan fix. So why has it taken so long to enact a new one?
Linda Botterill, University of Canberra

Australia's initial drought policy was plagued with problems and gutted in 2009. Since then, there has been no further attempt at developing a comprehensive national approach to the problem.

Finland's answer to food waste

If you have a sad bunch of spinach wilting away in your fridge — you're not alone. Food waste is a huge problem around the globe. The United Nations estimates that about one-third of all food produced is lost or wasted. One supermarket chain in Finland has an idea to address food waste. S-market has started holding "happy hours" at its stores. But instead of getting a cheap beer, shoppers get a discount on, say, a pound of shrimp or a pork tenderloin nearing its expiration date.

"[W]e ended up fond of this idea of a 'happy hour' that would help our customers also to realize that it's OK to buy products which are close [to] their expiry date and they are still good to use. We tested the concept in some stores and it actually worked fine and it's now being used in all our stores throughout Finland,” S-market division manager Sari Ristaniemi told The World.

Secret to happiness ‘is to ignore everyone and everything’
1st November 2015

PURE contentment can be attained by paying no attention to anything around you, experts have confirmed.

The Institute for Studies found that the happiest members of society are those who have as little to do with society as possible.

Professor Henry Brubaker said: “The happiest man we found lived in the woods.

“He had installed razor wire around the perimeter of his tree house so that nobody could get near him.”

Professor Brubaker stressed that living in a city was ‘obviously insane’, but warned against moving to a cottage in the country in the hope of escaping other humans.

He added: “People in anoraks will walk past your house and you’ll probably be near a village full of weirdos.

“Just live in a tree. Or a hot air balloon.”

Fresh air/outdoors smell better without having a screen separating me and said air. Might be in my head, but I swear I can tell a difference.

I hate circle jerk (not in the literal sense) posts.
Like great you want to tag people to feel better about yourself, get comments, likes, and feel like a part of the crowd or you are a part of the crowd and want to start said circle jerk. Do it on your own page.
That shit is so belittling, wrong, insulting, and only goes to outcast people who don't get noticed or aren't included.
Stop with the exclusivity shit.

How Friendships Change When You Become an Adult

"Friendships are unique relationships because unlike family relationships, we choose to enter into them. And unlike other voluntary bonds, like marriages and romantic relationships, they lack a formal structure. You wouldn’t go months without speaking to or seeing your significant other (hopefully), but you might go that long without contacting a friend."

"The voluntary nature of friendship makes it subject to life’s whims in a way more formal relationships aren’t. In adulthood, as people grow up and go away, friendships are the relationships most likely to take a hit. You’re stuck with your family, and you’ll prioritize your spouse. But where once you could run over to Jonny’s house at a moment’s notice and see if he could come out to play, now you have to ask Jonny if he has a couple hours to get a drink in two weeks."

If you start a thread to tag people for not being very likeable I can be in that list too .

Not being named on a list that was started for the sake of random appreciation isn't exclusion, though. And if you're talking about the thread I think you are, I believe anyone is welcome to add to the list with anyone they think gives good post for whatever reason. Seems pretty inclusive to me? Btw, I would put you on that list. I like a lot of what you have to say here. I just don't see you as frequently, so didn't think of ya in time.

If I never see my name on another "cool peeps of the site" thread I wouldn't take it as an insult or as an attempt to exclude me from the place all together...

I dunno. I guess it pisses me off to see people shit on other people when they're just trying to spread some positivity on a forum randomly for the sake of trying to share some happiness.
