Are you a recovering high school geek who still can’t get the girl? Are
you always the last person picked for your company’s softball team?
When you watched Office Space, did you feel a special kinship to the
stapler-obsessed Milton Waddams? If you answered yes to any of these
questions, do not despair. Researchers at Johns Hopkins and Cornell have
recently found that the socially rejected might also be society’s most
creatively powerful people.

I have a confession to make. My resume isn’t completely accurate. I
mean, everything on there is completely legit—but I may have left off a
few things. O.K. so it was one job, and when I accepted it, I thought it
was going to be the job. It wasn’t. In fact, it was the first of only
two times in my career when I absolutely knew, with complete certainty,
that I needed to quit. And that’s exactly what I did.

Lady Gaga has introduced one of the newest inventions from the Haus of
Gaga, a handmade wig by Frederic Aspiras that they’ve been working on

fiber optics, and was inspired by the idea of a Disney Princess going
to a rave.

Contrary to popular belief, sleeping in on the weekends doesn’t help
you catch up on sleep lost during the week, but rather makes you
sleepier come Monday morning. “A great myth of sleep deprivation is that

on an hour-by-hour basis on the weekend,” says Dr. Gregory Carter, a
sleep medicine specialist at UT Southwestern Medical Center.
Fast Company:
There are two sides to every story: it was the best of times, it was
the worst of times; you take the bitter with the sweet; every rose has
its thorn. However, in leadership, we often miss out on half the story.
Most discussions focus on what leaders "should do" rather than on what
they "should avoid." The result? We talk about success, but seldom talk
about failure.

Giant 3D video displays can be pretty cool, but it's hard for a virtual
3D effect to compete with an actually moving 3D display. This crazy
wall design built for the Hyundai Motor Group's Exhibition Pavilion is a
great example, with giant walls of moving blocks creating patterns that
wow a bunch of visiting school kids.
