Google Maps Now Lets You Explore Mars And The Moon, If You Know Where To Click

http://techcrunch.com/2014/08/05/google-maps-now-lets-you-explore-mars-and-the-moon-if-you-know-where-to-click/

Hey, you! Want to explore the surface of Mars?

No problem! All we need is a few billion dollars, a couple hundred of the world’s brightest minds, and for someone to get around to solving that pesky “massive levels of radiation” problem.

On second thought, that might take a while. Until then, Google Maps will have to do.

Just in time for the 2nd anniversary of the Curiosity rover touching down on Martian soil, Google has tucked 3D, explorable versions of Mars and the Moon right into Maps. Shootin’ across the galaxy in Google Maps is pretty easy, as long as you know where to click.

Forget Coffee: Kick Off Your Day With a 7 a.m. Rave

http://www.bloomberg.com/video/forget-coffee-kick-off-your-day-with-a-7-a-m-rave-tT626A7sRL~t8Z~yIv7oJQ.html



Aug. 5 (Bloomberg) –- At first glance, Daybreaker is a puzzling new party movement: intense raves, with no drugs or alcohol, taking place at 7 a.m. on weekday mornings. Founders Radha Agrawal and Matt Brimer started the party in New York in 2013 as an experiment, but it has caught on so quickly that they're already planning events in Berlin, Amsterdam, and Tel Aviv.

The 18 Most Innovative Cities On Earth

http://www.businessinsider.com/the-18-most-innovative-cities-on-earth-2014-8


Cape Town, South Africa.



Cities might be humanity's greatest invention — if you listen to Harvard economist Ed Glaeser, author of "Triumph of the City."

"So much of what humankind has achieved over the past three millennia has come out of the remarkable collaborative creations that come out of cities," he said in an interview. "We are a social species. We come out of the womb with the ability to sop up information from people around us. It's almost our defining characteristic as creatures. And cities play to that strength."

Indeed, many modern metros are pushing the limits of industry, design, and urban planning, while rethinking the way people live and work.

With that in mind, we assembled a list of the 18 most innovative cities in the world, using a range of metrics from patents per capita to skyscraper height.

Does it ever go away or get better ? I have a very mild case of it. I notice if I sit quietly for several hours, it seems to get a tad better. Thanks.
