For some, the perks of ping pong tables, free snacks and flexible hours are enough to convince early startup hires to sign on the dotted line. For others, the potential to make an impact on a growing business and have a hand in shaping an industry is the main allure. With new and promising startups popping up in locations everywhere from Silicon Valley and New York City to burgeoning tech hubs like Boston and Miami, it’s clear that startup culture has its advantages — and its hardships.

Throughout the course of our series The First 100, we’ve been talking to hires #1 through 100 at successful startups from around the country, asking their opinions on early growth, tough decisions and the ups and downs of startup life. This week, we’re talking to employees #71 through 80 from companies like Pinterest, Homejoy and Birchbox.

From who built it to what it was used for, Stonehenge is surrounded by many enduring mysteries — and researchers from the University of Buckingham in England now say they’ve solved one of them.

“For years people have been asking why is Stonehenge where it is, now at last, we have found the answers,” David Jacques, an archaeology research fellow at the university, said in a written statement.

Last October, Jacques led an archaeological dig at a site 1.5 miles from Stonehenge. His team unearthed flint tools and the bones of aurochs, extinct cow-like animals that were a food source for ancient people. Carbon dating of the bones showed that modern-day Amesbury, an area that includes the dig site and Stonehenge itself, has been continuously occupied since 8820 B.C. Amesbury has now been declared the oldest continually occupied area in Britain.

It’s been almost 3 weeks I haven’t updated my blog. So finally I had the time the to update my blog with another random post. I was having exams and it really is a difficult thing to maintain a blog. I used to think that people who write blogs, it’s pretty easy for them to maintain them. So I did realised that I was wrong when I opened my own travel blog and started posting stuff on it. But I’ll be more regular from now onwards,hopefully. I am just gonna write some very very random things today. Some about travel and I think some about life too. There are pro’s and con’s of everything in life. Nothing is ever gonna be perfect for you. Similarly, the same is the thing with travel. There are so many little things and every information has to be kept in mind. Sometimes people forget…

Scrotum Stares (Hungary)

Leave a comment

Writer & Director - Storytime with John's avatarApprentice Films

Hungary – Budapest ~ 2005

If you ever venture to Eastern Europe, then be prepared for one thing – the stares. They’re wonderful places, and they’re filled with just as wonderful people (I’m sure), but it seems, that wherever you go, the total sum of its inhabitants can’t help but stare you down with a look that says “I’m seriously going to murder you and harvest your organs”. But you know…different cultures, one love, live and let live. All that jazz.

Ermmm. Moving swiftly on!

Anyway, I’ve visited the city of Budapest, in Hungary, a couple of times – and apart from the vicious murderous stares that I’ve just mentioned, I find it to be a beautiful and culturally rich place, what with the elaborate architecture and historic monuments, I would probably recommend it to any would-be tourist! That is, if it wasn’t for the scrotums. You see no trip to…

Answer by Daniel Wetterstrom:

Here is a post from former MIT admissions counselor Ben Jones in 2006

50 Things | MIT Admissions

Dear Class of 2010,
This will be my last entry written specifically for you; beginning with the launch of our new site in early September, I’ll begin focusing on the future class of 2011. I hope that you guys won’t be strangers; stay in touch either in person (come visit us!) or online (please drop by the blogs from time to time and say hi).
As you begin your college experience, and I prepare for my 10-year college reunion, I thought I’d leave you with the things that, in retrospect, I think are important as you navigate the next four years. I hope that some of them are helpful.
Here goes…


  1. Your friends will change a lot over the next four years. Let them.
  2. Call someone you love…

Police have released new information regarding a car crash in South Florida that killed a young mother.

Amanda Notebaert, 31, died after a sedan driven by her 30-year-old husband, Matthew, plowed into a canal March 9. The couple had attended a concert that night, and police have now confirmed that they were intoxicated when the fatal crash occurred.

In an arrest affidavit obtained by the Sun-Sentinel, Palm Beach County Sheriff’s deputies say that Matthew Notebaert and his wife had THC and alcohol in their systems, and were both naked from the waist down when they crashed. They said Amanda was on her husband’s lap when he sped the car off a dead-end dirt road and into the far side of a canal.

RUNNER RUNNER (2013) – My rating: 7.5uu/10

RunnerRunnerA student loses all of his college tuition on a popular website playing  on-line poker.  He discovers that he was cheated so he sets out to confront the owner of the web site and finds himself working in a web of crooked high rolling cheats .  Richie Furst played by Justine Timberlake, thought he was dealing with a legitimate, up front guy named Ivan Block, played by Ben Affleck, but quickly found out differently.  This movie reminded me so much of “21” a movie starring Kevin Spacey as a teacher who teaches a special student how to win at gambling by counting cards so he could afford his college tuition.  I found Runner Runner to be very entertaining and well acted.  I could actually believe this kind of thing could happen.  There’s a lot of double crossing, deceit, action and drama in this movie.  I especially enjoyed Justin Timberlake’s performance as he has turned out to be a…

Mad pleasures

The tender movement of goosebumps
To the winking awakening of my flesh
The bad itch of I will not surrender yet
Funny how itchy chooses a place

An urgent sensation I never invented
Oh the thrill of mad mad gratification
Madness out in a perfect sneeze yes
For the next irrational swelling.

Ron Stallworth, Police Sergeant, Chronicles His Experience As Undercover KKK Member

Despite the Ku Klux Klan’s haunting history, one black police sergeant risked his life to go undercover as a “Black Klansman.”

In 1979, Colorado Springs police investigator Ron Stallworth called the number from KKK newspaper ad on a whim in the hopes of gathering information. What he didn’t expect was to be offered a membership, and eventually an invitation to lead the local KKK chapter for being perceived as a “loyal and dedicated” member of the notorious organization.
