False Alarm of the Day: FBI Questions Saudi Student for Possession of a Pressure Cooker
Last Friday, the FBI surrounded the home of Saudi student Talal al Rouki after his neighbor tipped off the authorities that he has been seen around the residential area with a pressure cooker, a household kitchenware that recently made the headlines after it was used by the Boston Marathon terrorists to set their deadly bombs off in April.

Following last Friday’s viral takeoff of a hostile e-mail sent by one of the University of Maryland Delta Gamma sorority members, who threatened sisters with violent repercussions for being “boring” and “awkward,” celebrities are jumping on the viral bandwagon with their dramatic readings of the now-infamous e-mail transcript: actress Alison Haislip kicked it off last week with an impassioned, potty-mouthedmonologue, followed by today’s Funny or Die rendition starring the stone-faced actor Michael Shannon.

That feeling when your crush walks into the room

humansofnewyork:

Found this young man leaning against a tree in Boston Commons, writing in a notebook: “It’s sort of hip hop, sort of poetry,” he said.
I asked him if I could photograph a page.



I pray for peace, I search for love,I hope you hear me out cuz no one ever does;we gotta stick together all we got is us;we can’t stop the negative unless wespread the peace and love;
Step outside of self, step into the world; noticehow everything we do affects the future boys and girls;hate crimes happen every damn day;got my momz scared my sister can’t go out to play,because her fear is that some psycho feels like snatching kids todayall these damn police but people still ain’t feeling safe;
Why does it take a tragedy to bring peopletogether; we know its bound to happen,we should try to stay that way forever;now this is not to say I’m better;but at a young age I learned that birds fly together;it’s a survival tactic and I suggest we use itlet’s come together, as we spread the peaceand love music
