Late last week, Academy Award-winning composer Hans Zimmer released a musical tribute to the victims of the Aurora massacre, and buying it is perhaps the perfect way to help a community affected by almost incomprehensible violence.

Zimmer, of course, is the man behind the powerful score to The Dark Knight Rises, the film now forever linked to the tragedy that claimed 12 lives and affected… Read More >>

How's this for emotional: BuddyMedia's founder, Mike Lazerow, takes a poignant retrospective of his life in this moving video. Often we stereotype high-level executives and CEOs as money hungry and greedy, but when you look at their life circumstances—like Lazerow's near-death experiences—you can see what helped shape their drive and determination to succeed… Read More >>

"Stranded at the drive-in" would be all the more dramatic if, instead of hopping into your souped-up roadster, you had to pedal your way home, alone and in tears.

Last summer, creative agency Manifold threw the first ever Bike-In-Theater on an abandoned river side street in Brooklyn, New York. The free event featured crowd-chosen movies like Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Caddyshack, with five different types of gourmet popcorn from Forking Tasty Supperto snack on. This year, there will be another Bike-In-Theater in New York; one in San…

All-star American swimmer Michael Phelps didn't have the best Saturday: He not only got trounced by rival Ryan Lochte in the 400-meter individual medley, but also placed outside of the top three altogether. Just four years ago, Phelps smashed the world record in the 400-meter medley relay, making his London failure all the more pronounced.

Writers Josh Levin and Justin Peters offer this humorous take on Slate.com: "The guy with the most gold medals in… Read More >>

The average person is a 20. All of my most social-network-savvy friends fall somewhere between 45 and 55, and Zuckerberg is a 53. Colbert is a 76, Oprah an 84, and Justin Bieber is allegedly the most influential person in the world, with a full 100 points.
