6 menacing towers fit for a supervillain
Work Safe: Yes
I thought I’d offer some assistance to any supervillains who may be looking for a menacing building to call headquarters. Admittedly they’re quite noticeable so unless you have the necessary means to defend the building or are managing to operate under the radar, you may want to look for something underground.

Work Safe: Yes

While America thinks it makes some useless shit, Japan, of course, has it own to a science—and a large convention, too. The 66th Annual Tokyo Gift Show took place over the course of last week out in the Tokyo Big Sight (the huge Odaiba convention center that’s impossibly shaped like an upside-down pyramid), and we’ve got the goods—to be precise, the ten best useless goods that you’d be somewhat pleased to not pay a dime for.

Work Safe: Yes
Five years after Toyota rolled out a hip, inexpensive and fuel-efficient brand called Scion, the Japanese automaker still sees it as a tool to attract young buyers. But slowing sales of Scion’s eye-catching vehicles indicate they may be losing some cachet.
