Flying's a great way to go from A to Z, but it's not exactly good for your ears. Take-off and landing are a plane ride's loudest moments, pushing cabin noise levels up to 105 decibels (dB). At cruising altitudes, the noise drops to around 85 dB but can still cause hearing harm, especially on long trips.However, there are steps you can take to safeguard your hearing without causing too much discomfort. A 21st-century approach is to board with a pair of noise-canceling headphones, like the Paww WaveSound 3 Noise-Cancelling Bluetooth Headphones, which are on sale for $79.99.Combining a state-of-the-art CSR chipset with multiple microphones, the WaveSound 3's block out up to 20dB of unwanted ambient noise, independent of ANC function, sparing you from some of the ambient rackets when you're in the air. Plus, the speaker quality is nothing to scoff at, either. These headphones combine two 40mm Neodymium drivers to create a balanced, punchy sound, and they're specifically designed for higher comfort over your ears, making those flights across the pond much more bearable.The Paww WaveSound 3 Noise-Cancelling Bluetooth Headphones retail for $149.99, but you can order them today for $79.99, saving nearly half off the normal price.

Strava is a GPS-enabled mobile app for runners interested in seeing where and how far they ran. It also has a publically-accessible global map, which accidentally disclosed the whereabouts of secret military bases, and even the exercise activity and identities of individual soldiers. From The Guardian:While the heatmap only shows information in aggregate, Strava’s own website allows users to drill down into the tracked runs to find the names of individuals, as well as the dates they set their personal best times on particular runs.When applied to military bases, that information can be extremely sensitive. The leaderboard for one 600m stretch outside an airbase in Afghanistan, for instance, reveals the full names of more than 50 service members who were stationed there, and the date they ran that stretch. One of the runners set his personal best on 20 January this year, meaning he is almost certainly still stationed there.In Djibouti’s Chabelley Airport, used as a staging ground for US Air Force drones, three runners have completed a 7km loop of the runway – two in December 2014, and one two years later in August 2016. At least one of them is no longer based there: their running profile shows they were transferred to an air base in Germany in 2016.The Pentagon said on Monday it was reviewing whether it needed to bolster its security protocols. “The Department of Defense takes matters like these very seriously and is reviewing the situation to determine if any additional training or guidance is required,” the Pentagon said in a statement, without directly confirming that U.S. troops had used the fitness trackers.It just keeps getting deeper. You can also trivially scrape segments, to get a list of people who travelled a route, and trivially obtain a list of users. #Strava pic.twitter.com/U9DnPsyHUD— Paul D (@Paulmd199) January 28, 2018Strava is now suggesting that soldiers consider opting out of being added to the heat map.Image: Strava heat map

Game over: Todd Rogers, longtime holder of countless videogame speed-run records, is being removed from the record tables after "the body of evidence" weighed strongly against the credibility of his claimed times. Player Todd Rogers has been stripped of his world record for finishing the simple Atari 2600 racing game Dragster, after months of debate over his completion time. ...Yet Rogers never provided recorded or other proof of his 5.51 time in Dragster, a sticking point in the years that followed. His personal website offered a simple explanation of how he achieved his unbeatable time, while maintaining that Activision’s certification of his time — highlighted in one of the company’s newsletters — was enough to cement his place on the gaming leaderboards.Yet when Twin Galaxies introduced a new process for disputing scores in July 2017, Rogers’ time in Dragster was one of the first to be challenged. In August 2017, several community members submitted Rogers’ 5.51-second Dragster finish for review. A thread on the Twin Galaxies’ forum about how Rodgers’ Dragster time was technically impossible ran for nearly 300 pages and included almost 3,000 postsThe Dragster record imbroglio not only puts all of Rogers' times out of play, but implied that folks at Activision and Twin Galaxies responsible for verifying times were negligent or complicit. Rogers was also banned from the Twin Galaxies site.Previously: Video game record-setter accused of cheating

In the cosmology of bureacratic evil, United Airlines is the prince of Hell.Minutes before departure, already buckled into her seat, she was ordered to leave the plane. The gate agent told her that her reservation had been canceled. Traveler Help Desk, the online agency that sold the ticket, had rescinded it because the landlord made a change directly through United — even though United had assured the landlord that it was not a problem to do so.Unable to fly, Ms. Amrich drove through the night, not stopping even to use the bathroom. Her sister, in the hospital room, held a phone to their mother’s ear, and Ms. Amrich begged her to hold on.She was still driving when her cellphone rang again. Her mother was dead.I can just see the agent's smile when they told her that “nobody flies for free.” When she complained, United called her landord, to get her address, to send her flowers.Previously:• Watch bizarre video: United Airlines employee pushes 71-year-old to floor, leaves him motionless• Fecal rampage grounds international United flight• TSA says it doesn't know why United thought comics were banned from checked Comic-Con luggage

My dear friend Jenny Slater was in Nashville Wednesday. She dined with her new work team at SILO, an upscale eatery in the Germantown neighborhood.That's where they spotted an unusual offering on the dessert menu. They saw that, for an additional $20, they could "buy the cooks a round of beer." She wrote me, "I am lucky enough to eat in a lot of different restaurants, and this was a new one for me! (And yes, the food was amazing, and yes, we kicked in the $20!)"I had to know if the restaurant acknowledged it in some way. I mean, adding an extra $20 to your bill is not exactly chump change.We were chatting in real time, so at first she said there was "no acknowledgement yet, but they're busy." Then, a few minutes later, she exclaimed, "They cheered loudly!" and then "We're seated at a big table near the open kitchen, so it was a nice little celebratory moment!"I did a little digging around and apparently this is a thing. A 2011 article in Kansas City's alt-newspaper The Pitch describes the practice:Matt Hyde, the manager and co-owner of 715, says his business partner, executive chef Michael Beard, got the idea to add the option of tipping the kitchen crew with beer from the Publican in Chicago -- one of the several restaurants around the country featured in yesterday's Inc.com article by Clarissa Cruz on this very subject.There are some rules to the practice at 715, Hyde says: "The kitchen crew isn't allowed to drink while they're working, of course," he says, "and we have a policy that they can only have two beers after their shift in the restaurant. This way, the after-work beers accumulate."Hyde says as many as 10 customers a night will buy six-packs of Miller High Life (it's the only canned beer sold at 715) for the kitchen: "It prints up on the ticket that the servers turn in, so the cooks know right away when a customer has bought beer for them. It's a real morale booster and helps build a sense of community among staff and patrons. Sometimes the kitchen crew will come out and thank the customers."Cool, I'm glad this is still a practice, some seven years later.photo by Jenny Slater

Trump ordered that special investigator Robert Mueller be fired, but backed off when the White House's legal counsel threatened to resign.The West Wing confrontation marks the first time Mr. Trump is known to have tried to fire the special counsel. Mr. Mueller learned about the episode in recent months as his investigators interviewed current and former senior White House officials in his inquiry into whether the president obstructed justice.Amid the first wave of news media reports that Mr. Mueller was examining a possible obstruction case, the president began to argue that Mr. Mueller had three conflicts of interest that disqualified him from overseeing the investigation, two of the people said.The man who mastered Trump here is Donald F. McGahn II. There seems to be a knack for manipulating Trump, through sycophancy or triggering his fear of looking stupid. Some people just never get close -- GOP politicians -- but military men and rock guitarists instinctively have his number.

2018 marked the 75th year for the Golden Globes, and people are still talking about it, mainly due to the rousing speech Oprah gave during her acceptance of the Cecil B. DeMille Award for lifetime achievement. But that wasn't the only memorable moment.In particular, James Franco gave the industry a shock when he beat out big names, like Steve Carrell, Hugh Jackman, and Ansel Elgort, for his role as Tommy Wiseau in The Disaster Artist, taking home the Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy.For the uninitiated, The Disaster Artist is based on a book of the same name that follows the making of Tommy Wiseau's 2003 film The Room, which is often considered one of the worst movies ever made. For many today, The Disaster Artist was their first introduction to Wiseau's cult classic, but it's long served as a clear example of how not to write a movie. That said, we'd like to propose a question:Would The Room have been better if it was written with Final Draft 10? While we’re not here to criticize Tommy Wiseau’s creative genius, sometimes a good movie can be decided by the very software you use to write it. And, had more attention been paid to story-mapping and collaboration, The Room may not have needed James Franco’s involvement to reach mainstream audiences.This takes us to Final Draft 10, which is the world’s number one screenwriting tool. Utilized by studios like Disney and Warner Brothers, this program has helped draft countless successful, big-name screenplays. And, with licenses on sale for half off their usual price, we thought now would be a good time to highlight three reasons why you should be using it to draft your next motion picture. Take a look at its features and decide for yourself if this Hollywood-approved tool could have changed The Room's fate.1. Story MappingA story without a roadmap is a like a roller coaster without brakes: It’s a chaotic and scary mess that’s sure to end in disaster. Final Draft 10 boasts two new features that allow you to plan your stories and make sure your ideas line up from start to finish. First, Story Map™ lets you outline acts, scenes, and sequences more efficiently.With Story Map™, you can keep track of your narrative arc by marking Structure Points, which allow you to plan and track tentpole moments of your screenplay. Combine this with Beat Board™, and you have a reliable way of keeping your plot and character arcs coordinated. Say you need to deduce where a character is emotionally in your piece, just add a beat at a pivotal moment, and you have a clear indicator of his or her development.2. Template SelectionIn case you weren't already aware, drafting content is a long and often tedious process, so it pays to shave off as much time as you can during the writing process. Final Draft 10 helps you do this by providing you with more than 100 templates for screenplays, teleplays, and stage plays.Each template includes industry standard title pages, which are streamlined and simple to modify, save, and print. When combined with Final Draft 10's other quality-of-life improvements, like automatic Hollywood-standard pagination and backups, you can grind through your next piece at a much faster rate.3. CollaborationAs the old saying goes, "Two heads are better than one," and this rings true when it comes to drafting a screenplay. Whether you're looking for ideas on how to improve a particular scene or just have someone peer-review your work, Final Draft 10 affords you the ability to do so from anywhere.With Final Draft 10, you can work on your script remotely and in real time with your writing partners, allowing you to share ideas and talk business without having to hassle with phone calls or meeting in person. That way, you can focus more on producing quality content in the environment that's right for you — even if that just means wearing pajamas in the comfort of your own home.In case you're curious about what else makes Final Draft 10 the top choice for studios, here are some more handy features:Global Name Changing: Sweet Christmas, how miserable a time it is when you need to edit a character's name late in the game. Final Draft 10 lets you edit a character’s name in script elements like dialogue and action and keep the appropriate casing without using "find and replace."Dictionary and Spell-checking: Part of what made The Room such a beautiful disaster was its questionable use of the English language. Thankfully, you can keep your film from going down the same path with Final Draft 10's included dictionary and spell-checking tools. Dictionaries are available for 12 languages and even offer country-specific spell-checks.Alternate Dialogue: Writing natural, convincing dialogue is tricky, and often you'll find yourself drafting multiple lines for the same scene. Final Draft 10 lets you store alternate lines of dialogue within the script itself. That way, you don't have to flip between pages or navigate through cluttered lines to see which options are available for a given scene.Revision Improvements: Finishing a script is but one part of the movie-making process. When it comes to bringing your story from page to screen, you still need to revise your script. Final Draft 10's revision mode allows you to track and review the changes you make at every step. Plus, you can set your revision colors to keep things coordinated and merge pages even when your script is locked.Watermarking: If you're going to spend hundreds of hours working on a screenplay, you'd best make sure you protect it, too. That's why watermarking your work is a must, and with Final Draft 10, you can secure your script by identifying each recipient with a custom watermark.2003 happened, and The Room will remain a cult-classic and clear indicator of how drastically the screenwriting process can spiral out of control. However, it's a new year, and you can start yours off right by taking the appropriate measures to ensure your screenplay is organized, streamlined, and polished to near perfection. Final Draft 10 usually retails for $249.99, but you can get it on sale today for $124.99, saving half off the usual price. Plus, take an additional 15% off with FD15 at checkout.

Los Angeles-based artist Veronica Moonhill thought it was crazy that she and her girlfriends were celebrating dicks at her bachelorette party.She writes:There we were, a bunch of fabulous women speaking our truths and drinking wine, when I looked up and realized we were surrounded by dicks: penis straws, penis lollipops, pin the junk on the hunk and of course penis confetti. I thought, "Why are a bunch of powerful ladies sitting around celebrating dicks? That’s insane! It's time we started celebrating VAGINA's!"I Googled it and was astonished. There was pretty much no vagina confetti, or vagina paraphernalia of any kind. So that night, surrounded by plastic penises and my favorite women, the idea for Clitter was born.She describes her shiny little breasts, vulvas, and ovaries as "pussy powered confetti." Clitter is available on Kickstarter (where it's already gone well past its goal). (RED)

Ursula K. Le Guin died today at 88. The author of the Earthsea novels, The Left Hand of Darkness and many others, she was and remains among the brightest stars in the sky of fantasy literature.Ursula K. Le Guin, the immensely popular author who brought literary depth and a tough-minded feminist sensibility to science fiction and fantasy with books like “The Left Hand of Darkness” and the Earthsea series, died on Monday at her home in Portland, Ore. She was 88. Her son, Theo Downes-Le Guin, confirmed the death. He did not specify a cause but said she had been in poor health for several months.Ms. Le Guin embraced the standard themes of her chosen genres: sorcery and dragons, spaceships and planetary conflict. But even when her protagonists are male, they avoid the macho posturing of so many science fiction and fantasy heroes. The conflicts they face are typically rooted in a clash of cultures and resolved more by conciliation and self-sacrifice than by swordplay or space battles.Photo: Oregon State University / Marian Wood Kolich (CC)

Enjoy this fantastic, titular, trippy video from one half of HONEYHONEY, Bejamin Jaffe's new solo album Dominator.Baeble blog had this to say:At this point, it's no secret that we are absolutely obsessed with anything HONEYHONEY-related. It all started back in 2012 when we filmed a concert with the duo in Austin, TX. Then just last month, we welcomed one half of HONEYHONEY, Suzanne Santo, to our studio for a powerful session filled with lots of laughter. Naturally, now it's time to let the other half of the duo, Benjamin Jaffe, shine.It's safe to say we were pretty excited to receive "Dominator," the video for the lead single off of Jaffe's upcoming solo debut Oh, Wild Ocean of Love (out March 30th on Diamond Family Records). In the minimalistic visual, we see Jaffe sing against a white backdrop as graphics of drum kits flash, synchronized with the glitchy beat. Jaffe's vocal is smooth as butter and serves up spine-tingling harmonies reminiscent of Father John Misty. This gorgeous arrangement just goes to show that, while we will forever love HONEYHONEY, Jaffe stepping into the spotlight and showing off his musical chops might just be a really great move.Jaffe sent Baeble this quirky statement on the video: "We made this video with a little budget and a big dream of me eating the shrunken heads of politicians. Without (co-director) Sage Atwood, it never would have happened. See, without friends, dreams are just silly little stories to wile away the time. I hope you like the video, I know it likes you."(Thanks, Jim Turner!)
