Granted, it's only pennies, but every penny helps, right?
Life is too complicated...
A great pair of jeans for under $ 18.00 bucks?
And they're great pants, too. Go figure.
Rustler makes a great pair of pants for a ridiculously low price.
See for yourself - there's plenty of styles and sizes

WTF is an 'Oxygen Candle'...
A small starter charge heats the core to about 600°C (1112°F) to trigger the decomposition of sodium chlorate. The sodium chlorate breaks down into sodium chloride (table salt) and a steady stream of pure oxygen gas, while the iron powder burns to supply the ongoing heat needed to sustain the reaction.
A single compact unit can yield hundreds to thousands of liters of oxygen over a span of 20 to 90 minutes depending on its size. Employed as reliable emergency backups in confined or sealed environments like commercial airplanes (powering the drop-down passenger masks), submarines, and space stations.
Because they operate at extremely high temperatures and release pure oxygen, improper handling or accidental activation poses a severe fire hazard in enclosed spaces.

He gave so much away. I wonder who got the rest...
Andrew Carnegie was one of the wealthiest men in history. He had built a massive fortune in the American steel industry and sold his company to J.P. Morgan for $480 million in 1901, making him briefly the richest man in the world. But instead of keeping his fortune, he gave much of it away - and one of his biggest projects was building libraries. He spent his final years giving away about 90 percent of his wealth. Between 1883 and 1929, he funded 2,509 public libraries across the English‑speaking world, spending over $56 million.
The deal came with rules: towns had to provide the land, ensure the libraries remained free, and commit 10% of construction costs to annual maintenance. It was a partnership, not a handout. More than a century later, 911 of his U.S. libraries are still functioning as libraries. A legacy that still opens doors - and minds.

Different kinds of beach umbrellas...
Thessaloniki is the second-largest city in Greece and the main urban center in the north of the country. Influenced over the centuries by Greek, Ottoman, and Hebrew communities, it has become a destination for lovers of art and culture.
Along the beautiful seafront of Thessaloniki, and close to other attractions such as the White Tower, the statue of Alexander the Great, and the local museums, stands a curious sculpture that catches the eye of every visitor.
"The Umbrellas” was made by Greek sculptor Giorgios Zongolopoulos in 1997 when Thessaloniki was the European Capital of Culture. Each umbrella is about 42 feet (13 meters) tall and slightly tilted. Now one of the most photographed places in the entire city, it's sometimes illuminated with different lights making it even more magical.

It's a jungle out there. Well, it usta be...
Hippos, crocodiles, elephants, giraffes, and antelopes roamed the grassy plains. Early people fished, hunted, and left behind rock art depicting vibrant local animals. Lake Chad grew to the size of the modern Caspian Sea.
Changes in Earth's tilt and orientation to the sun reduced summer solar energy and weakened monsoons. Instead of fading over millennia, the lush ecosystem transitioned into an arid desert within just a few centuries. As the rains stopped, inland populations moved toward the Nile Valley, helping fuel the rise of ancient Egyptian civilizations.

They could tear it down, but why bother?
This abandoned house, nearly two hundred years old, has been in the same family since it was built. Descendants of the original owners still live on the property, overlooking the Gweebarra River in the tiny hamlet of Classy, just outside the smallish town of Doochary in Donegal County, Ireland. The Gweebarra is a tidal river with great salmon fishing year 'round...
