At first glance, Frozen 2 might seem to be a perfect movie. But when we look deeper into what we see and hear in the movie, we find that it has a lot of flaws in the songs, the animation, the storytelling, and even the two logos presented in the first 48 seconds of the film! CinemaSins lists the many things wrong about Frozen 2.

The dreaded coronavirus has already forced many of us to stay at our own respective homes. For weeks now, many places around the world have already been locked down, and physical contact with other people is highly discouraged, as we are to practice social distancing. With this being the case, many of us now take refuge in the Internet. It has, at least temporarily, now become our main method of communicating with each other. And, because of this, the Internet has seen much activity recently, and maybe this is a good thing.

… Twitter is more active, and judging by the number of inane fights I've read through in the past few days, Facebook is too. Reddit has reported a 20 to 50 percent surge in usage on some subreddits.

As we find ourselves more online—at the moment, less out of desire than out of actual, desperate need—there are upsides in the way we're using the internet to connect. In the past week, I've never seen so many of my friends making videos on Instagram, whether it's while cooking, dancing, doing makeup, or talking about whatever; I opened the app yesterday to an unprecedented number of people I follow doing Instagram Lives at once. People are even blogging again: the Blogger-hosted Indoor Voices is a new platform for posting just about anything and with its submissions open to anyone, and We Are Food Bloggers Now is reminiscent of food blogs before food blogs seemed like a launchpad to book deals.

Bettina Makalintal compares this recent surge of Internet activity to the days when the Internet was fun. Check out her article over at Vice.

The Chino Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) Choral Festival in San Bernardino County, California, was canceled, but the Chino Hills High School Chamber Singers still wanted to sing. So they coordinated a performance on YouTube, with each member singing from their homes. It's lovely.

This arrangement is the one made famous by the late Israel Kamakawiwoʻole. His version has been featured in many movies, TV shows, and ads, but the reason it always makes me tear up is because it accompanied the death of the ER character Mark Green.

When James Bedford died in 1967, his body became the first to be frozen in hopes of resurrection someday when medical science had advanced enough to save him. That was over 50 years ago, and the company that froze him eventually went bankrupt, as did other early cryonics firms.

As to what happened with these early companies, the big issue, beyond equipment failures and faulty procedures resulting in accidental thawing, was that they relied on friends and family of the deceased to make regular payments to keep the bodies nice and frozen. Should the deceased’s loved ones choose to cool on making such payments, which almost universally happened rather quickly, their “mostly dead” loved ones would then be allowed to warm and become all-dead. Although interestingly in at least one company’s case, they were found in 1979 to have thawed, some intentionally others accidentally, 17 of the 18 bodies they were storing without notifying anyone… Naturally, lawsuits ensued, but the company was bankrupt at that point.

In other cases, once the bodies were accidentally thawed or payments ceased, the companies simply notified the deceased’s next of kin, transferring the bodies to them for disposal like you would any other body.

Things have changed since then. Newer companies have financial setups that make them a little more stable. Read about the business of cryonics and what happened to James Bedford at Today I Found Out.

In a new issue of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, the five-issue comic from Ryan Parrott, Simone di Meo, Alessio Zono, Walter Baiamonte, Igor Monti and Ed Dukeshire, the medieval turtles have been transformed into the Turtle Rangers to aid the Power Rangers in fighting against Rita and Shredder. As Power Rangers, the turtles donned masks and medieval weapons to aid them in the war to come. CBR.com has more details: 

Effectively, both teams swap places with Leonardo as the Blue Ranger instead of Billy, Raphael taking on Jason's Red Ranger duties, Michelangelo replacing Trini as the Yellow Ranger, Donatello becoming the Black Ranger instead of Zack and April taking Kimberly's place as the Pink Ranger.

When they face off against Wyldfyre (a giant pyro-kitten sent by Rita to New York), the Turtle Rangers level up their weaponry as well with April wielding a Power Bow and Raph rocking Power Sais. Leo has got Power Blades instead of swords, Donnie has a Power Staff, and Mikey has Power Nunchucks. They combine them to form the iconic Power Blaster that saves the day, with the public adoring them for their bravery.

Luckily, the Ninja Rangers help Tommy and Tyler break free from Karai at the same time. When they all meet up again, they get ready for their final battle against an army of combined Putties and Foot soldiers and a giant-size Bepop and Rocksteady as the crossover marches to its conclusion.

Found in the westernmost part of Canada is the Canadian territory of Yukon. Out of all the provinces and territories in Canada, this place has the smallest population, with only a little over 40,000 people. Found in this territory is the Takhini Hot Springs, which lies just outside Whitehorse, the capital city of Yukon.

For most of the year, visitors spend hours relaxing in the mineral-rich and odorless waters, which are privately owned by the company Takhini Hot Pools.

But when the winter months come, the hot springs become a heated battleground for the Hair Freezing Contest, the world’s only frozen-hairdo competition. In this contest, …

Participants dunk their heads underwater, emerge into the frigid air, and style their locks into stiff, eye-catching sculptures. Depending on one’s creativity and luck with the elements, the results range from frosty, mop-like tangles to dramatically manicured spikes.

“All this rising steam collects on your hair and freezes really quickly when it meets the cold air,” says Andrew Umbrich, co-owner of Takhini Hot Pools. “You can get good results within 15 minutes if it’s cold enough.”

It’s worth splitting hairs when deciding on a final look: Winners for this year’s contest, which opened last December and closed earlier this month, earn $2,000 (in Canadian dollars), free soaks, and a 12-punch pass for a new facility set to open this fall. Hair must be completely frozen—a feat best achieved when the air is 40 below zero. Once coiffed, entrants ring a wireless doorbell to notify a staff member to photograph them.

Well, what do you think?

It was another rough day for Stormy Roce Bruce, and then she noticed that she received a text message from an unknown number. It was something that she was not expecting, but it was something that she badly needed. In fact, she considered it the “best wrong number text ever”.

Someone had texted her number by accident, and the text they sent her was a picture of their dog, Lyla, hanging out in a dryer.

“I was thoroughly excited,” Bruce told The Dodo. “It’s not every day you get such a beautiful wrong text.”

Very wholesome.

Thanks to the spread of the coronavirus, many places in various countries have now been locked down, and people from these places are discouraged, if not prohibited, from going outside their homes. With this in mind, how can our dogs, then, have their daily walks, which is essential to them? This man has an answer to that.

One man in Cyprus, though, has figured out a pretty ingenious way to ensure his fluffy four-legged friend still gets plenty of exercise and hit the town — by having his drone do all the “walking” for him.

By attaching his dog’s leash to the drone, Vakis Demetriou can still take his dog out remotely while practicing social distancing.

Creative!
