So according to computer scientists, the election results might have been hacked in 3 important swing states. x x 

“The scientists, among them J. Alex Halderman, the director of the University of Michigan Center for Computer Security and Society, told the Clinton campaign they believe there is a questionable trend of Clinton performing worse in counties that relied on electronic voting machines compared to paper ballots and optical scanners”

Bad News: Our boss locked the keys inside the building.

Good News: We didn’t have to wait around for a locksmith.

Bad News: My boss finds it very concerning that I know how to pick locks, and tried to unlock my Tragic Backstory™. I was too embarrassed to admit that the reason I learned was because, at thirteen, I figured that was the kind of skill that would impress cute girls.

Good News: A cute girl saw me do it.

Bad News: It was Maggie, and since she’s already seen me fall out of several trees, cry because I saw a fawn that was just too damn small, and knows I can ride a unicycle, she’ll never think I’m cool no matter what I do. It’s too late. She knows.

a little comic about kisses and curses. happy halloween!

Fire

Okay, so. It’s late at night and I kinda wanna play a game with you all.

The one where a person says a word, and you have to make a new word by changing only one letter, I’ll start.

Solar System: Things to Know This Week

From images to virtual reality and interactive simulations, NASA offers plenty of ways to explore our solar system – and beyond – in 3-D.

1. Step One: Get the Glasses

Many of the images and interactive features require special glasses with red and blue lenses.

Make regular 3-D glasses: http://go.nasa.gov/2lwQOoP

Make fancy Mars rover 3-D glasses: http://go.nasa.gov/2lwEmWe

2. Breaking News (Virtual Reality Edition)

Big news from 40 light-years away (235 trillion miles). Our Spitzer Space Telescope revealed the first known system of seven Earth-size planets around a single star. Three of these planets are firmly located in the habitable zone, all of them have the potential for water on their surfaces.

No glasses required.

Get to know one of those planets, TRAPPIST-1d in virtual reality: http://go.nasa.gov/2ldaGKY

Try the virtual reality panorama (especially great for a phone or tablet):

This image was created by combining two images from STEREO B (Feb. 24, 2008) taken about 12 hours apart, during which the sun’s rotation provides sufficient perspective to create a nice 3-D effect.

3. Free-Range 3-D Exploration

Our Eyes on the Solar System app allows free exploration of Earth, our Solar System and thousands of worlds discovered orbiting distant stars. And, you also can explore it all in 3-D!

Under visual controls just check 3-D, pop on your glasses and explore.

4. Your Star in 3-D

The STEREO (Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory) mission studied the sun in 3-D with twin satellites.

5. National Parks in 3-D

The Earth-orbiting Terra satellite’s Multiangle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) instrument provides 3-D views while orbiting Earth, including some great shots of our National Parks.

Go to the parks: http://go.nasa.gov/2bk5XHP

6. Get in the Pilot’s Seat

Take a look inside the cockpit of our high altitude ER-2 aircraft as it descends for landing at Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii. This month, scientists used used the aircraft to collect data on coral reef health and volcanic emissions and eruptions. Flying at 65,000 feet, above 95 percent of Earth’s atmosphere, the ER-2 has a unique ability to replicate the data a future satellite could collect. Data from this mission will help in developing a planned NASA satellite mission to study natural hazards and ecosystems called Hyperspectral Infrared Imager, or HyspIRI.

7. Moon Views

The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter creates 3-D images from orbit by taking an image of the moon from one angle on one orbit and a different angle on a separate orbit.

See the results: http://go.nasa.gov/2lvooeZ

This stereo scene looking back at where Curiosity crossed a dune at “Dingo Gap” combines several exposures taken by the Navigation Camera (Navcam) high on the rover’s mast.

8. Martian 3D

Our Mars fleet of rovers and orbiters captures the Red Planet from all angles - often in 3-D.

Suit up and start exploring: http://go.nasa.gov/2lddjN4

9. Saturn in 3-D

The Cassini spacecraft’s mission to Saturn is well-known for its stunning images of the planet and its complex system of rings and moons. Now you can see some of them in 3-D.

See Saturn: http://go.nasa.gov/2mCQhiZ

10. Want More? Do It Yourself!

Put a new dimension to your vacation photos. Our Mars team created this handy how-to guide to making your own eye-popping 3-D images.

Get started: http://go.nasa.gov/2lddc46

BONUS: Printer-Friendly

Why stop with images? The Ames Research Center hosts a vast collection of 3-D printable models ranging from the moon craters to spacecraft.

♡ how to make lavender milk ♡

happy full moon in aries! today i am showing you guys how to make lavender milk ♡ lavender has been prized for centuries for its gentle healing properties & soothing fragrance. as most of you already know, every year i grow lavender in my garden. throughout the season i harvest the plant (when the purple flowers are bright and young), tie the branches together, and hang in a cool dark place to dry. the dried lavender can be used in beauty products, aromatherapy, baking, tea, herbal remedies, spiritual rituals, and in drinks! when ingested, lavender can help promote relaxation and sleep. 

lavender milk is floral, pretty, and comforting. the flavour is at once fragrant and light from the flowers, but full, warm, and sweet from the milk and honey. i use nut milk (almond or cashew), because i think the nuttiness pairs well with the slightly bitter lavender, complimented by the addition of raw honey and pure vanilla extract. raw honey, ideally ethically and locally produced, still carries a range of health benefits that processed honey does not. it is antibacterial, antiviral, and soothing. give this recipe a try & experience the healing powers of drinking lavender ♡

ingredients: 

♡ 1 cup nut milk (cashew or almond tastes best. if you’re allergic, you can use soy, rice, flax, or oat milk. you could also use a flavoured alternative milk- try vanilla!)

♡ 2-3 tablespoons of lavender, more or less depending on how strong you want the lavender flavour to be. 

♡ 1 tsp of raw honey or more to taste 

♡ ¼ tsp vanilla extract 

directions:

in a small pot, combine milk and dried lavender. let simmer on low heat for about 10 minutes (do not boil- the goal is to achieve a nice infusion of lavender, which involves a longer, slower heating process. you don’t want to scorch the milk or flowers!), longer if you desire a stronger flavour. you’ll notice the lavender beginning to lose its colour. remove pot from heat, strain, and compost the flowers. while it’s still hot, dissolve a teaspoon or more of raw honey to taste, and add the ¼ teaspoon of vanilla extract. and there you have it, your own lavender milk! fragrant, soft, and delicate. let it lull you to sleep or incorporate it into your relaxation routine. you can try this recipe with a variety of other edible flowers, like rose, chamomile or borage, or a blend of flowers! nothing will make you feel more like a princess ♡
