Students from grade school to grad school participated in a community challenge by Larry Smith at SMITH Magazine. The challenge was, "How would you tell your life's story if you could only use six words?"

Inspired by the urban myth that Ernest Hemingway was once challenged to such a task, but with a novel.The small experiment soon became a global phenomenon, producing a series of books and inspiring millions of people to contemplate the deepest complexities of existence through the simplicity of short-form minimalism. The latest addition to the series, Things Don’t Have To Be Complicated: Illustrated Six-Word Memoirs by Students Making Sense of the World, comes from TEDBooks and collects dozens of visual six-word autobiographies from students between the ages of 8 and 35.

"All it cost me were pens and time," says Shantell Martin of her Brooklyn home and studio. From the baseboards to the ceiling, the space is inhabited with a hand-drawn mural by Martin herself. The best part is that his Brooklyn home and studio is actually rented! Martin says that her landlords are supportive of her scribbling habit, as long as it is limited to the top floor. And it's not just the walls -- vases, shirts, shoes, toys, and more are covered in the intricate designs. 

Paris-based Parrot takes a step off the beaten path with Flower Power, a sensor-driven gardening gadget that aims to help thumbs stay green on the go. Shaped like a plastic plant stock, the small indoor/outdoor device gathers soil information and uses Bluetooth 4.0 to transmit it to your phone or tablet. It measures the amount of sunlight the plant receives, environment temperature, humidity and soil salinity—a measure of how well nourished the soil itself is at any given moment.

So if you're having trouble growing those indoor vegetables in this dreary weather, this just might be your big solution.

Who would ever put a huge celebrity head tatoo on their body permanently?! Well guess these people got what they asked for. Hah

Now that everybody knows Lindsay Lohan is broke, it's only natural to accuse her of stealing Liz Taylor's missing bracelet from the set of "Liz & Dick." It's been said that Lindsay has gotten close with Tayor's long time nurse, to which the said bracelet was gifted. “Elizabeth had given the nurse an expensive bracelet that was very meaningful to her and the nurse absolutely cherished it. Lindsay immediately fell in love with the bracelet the minute she saw it and was very vocal about how much she admired it. A short time later, the bracelet disappeared from the nurse’s house … on the very same day Lindsay had been to visit," tells a source.

I don't get why people put all their lives on Facebook to begin with, but these are just beyond ridiculous! Nobody Cares! Really.

It's sad that some countries are in such poor condition. But meanwhile the governments aren't doing their jobs, and the communities are in chaos, you're well advised to NOT ever visit these places if you want to stay well and alive!
