3 Drinks a Day Keeps the Doctor Away
Nzimmer911 writes "Heavy drinkers outlive non-drinkers according to a 20 years study following 1,824 people. From the article: 'But a new paper in the journal Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research suggests that - for reasons that aren't entirely clear - abstaining from alcohol does actually tend to increase one's risk of dying even when you exclude former drinkers. The most shocking part? Abstainers' mortality rates are higher than those of heavy drinkers.'"

Phoneballs Case Protects iPhone In Hairy Situations
iPhone, balls, case. Phoneballs case. They come in blue and peach. They are just $15—and 10% of all proceeds go to testicular cancer research. I don't see any drawbacks in this product, really.

4GB USB flash drive cufflinks: wear your nerdery on your sleeve, literally
We've seen plenty of novelty cufflinks in the past, but these ones -- well, they're actually kind of useful, in addition to being cool and weird.
