Occupy Wall Street movement supporters were outraged by the bank bailout. Now they want to start a bailout that people can actually get behind.
Dubbed the Rolling Jubilee, Occupiers have created a program to buy distressed consumer debt and then erase it. That will “liberate debtors at random through a campaign of mutual support, good will, and collective refusal,” the Jubilee’s website said.

Occupy Wall Street is launching a new movement to buy back consumer debt and erase it.

After Hostess Brands announced it’s going out of business following a labor dispute, panicked consumers have rushed to stores to stock up on their favorite heart-clogging treats.
While it will be possible to buy Hostess treats from stores for “a few more days” until already baked products run out, the inevitable — and wildly inflated — “black market” of Hostess products has already reared its costly head on the Interwebs in preparation for the impending Twinkie-pocalypse.

Twenty-three years after retiring from the NBA, Marques Johnson clearly still has game — and he has video evidence to prove it.

Remember when we shared the behind-the-scenes video of Olympic gold medalist Gabby Douglas getting glam for ESSENCE’s December issue? Well, we finally have a look at the lovely cover.
America’s new sweetheart shines in a Notte by Marchesa black-and-gold frock with a head full of flowing locks (no bad hair day here) and one of her two gold medals for the glossy’s annual “Women Of The Year” issue.

One of the ingredients in Coca Cola is sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), which is an alkaline substance that can help clean your belongings and take care of your body. This soda pop can be purchased on the cheap if you don’t already have some laying around the house. You’re going to be surprised at some of the unusual ways that Coke can help out around your home.

Businessweek continued its streak of attention-getting covers on Wednesday by portraying President Obama as a much older man for its next issue.
“The opposition remains considerable, and no matter how successful he is, the hardest job in the world will take its toll,” the editors wrote about the cover, which shows a wrinkled, white-haired Obama with the headline “The Next Four Years.”

Between listeria-tainted cantaloupes and salmonella in grape tomatoes, the produce aisle has become quite a scary place. How can we be sure that what we’re eating is actually safe? I usually give fruits and vegetables a brief rinse or a quick spin in the salad spinner but given all the recent food recalls, I’m starting to rethink this laid-back approach. Is regular old water really enough?

The Internet’s so-called “front page,” otherwise known as Reddit, has been getting some bad press of late due to the recent unmasking of its notorious troll, Violentacrez.
In the hubbub, the fact that the site is also a clearinghouse for small acts of random kindness has been overshadowed. In the midst of a dark news cycle, the story of a simple act– replacing a man’s worn tires–is a simple reminder of the power of unsolicited generosity.
