Powerful Video: First World Problems [Cool Stuff]
Washington DC – Many of us do it, we complain about how our phones’ internet connection is too slow or how your iPhone case doesn’t match your shoes, but we forget that many people throughout the world cannot say such things. These are first world problems, the video above makes a good point — these problems are not problems at all.
The video is part of a campaign to bring clean water to people in impoverished countries of the world where clean water is scarse. WATERisLIFE.com is giving out “straws” or personal filters to people who live in these countries so that can have access to their own clean water through filtration. Each straw costs about $10.00 USD, but it is for a good cause. Share the video with your friends and join the effort. To donate please visit Water Is Life’s website, here.

NASA Curiosity Rover Finds Evidence of an Ancient Stream on Mars [Cool Stuff]
Los Angeles, California — Scientists say NASA’s newest Mars rover has found signs that a stream once flowed across the surface near the site where it landed.
Curiosity touched down in a crater near the Martian equator last month. The red planet today is dusty and dry but scientists think it was once warmer and wetter.Evidence of an ancient stream came from analyzing the size and shapes of pebbles and gravel near Gale Crater. Mission scientists said Thursday it appeared the water was fast-moving and deep.
Images from space have provided hints of a watery past at Curiosity’s landing site. The latest discovery on the ground confirms that.
Curiosity is headed toward a spot where three types of terrain meet. Its ultimate destination is a mountain rising from the center of the crater.
