From the “faith in humanity restored” department, we bring you the tale of retired barber Anthony Cymerys or Joe the Barber as he is better known! Joe, 82, has been giving out haircuts to the homeless in Hartford, Connecticut, in exchange for hugs for the last 25 years!!

A sick and despicable scam has been exposed, suggesting that there is a group of privileged 1 percenters who have been hiring disabled tour guides so that their children can cut the often huge queues at Disney World.
According to the exposé, the “black-market Disney guides” cost $130 an hour or $1040 for an 8-hour day. Disney World allows up to 6 guests with a disabled person using a motorized scooter or wheelchair to cut the queue and use a “more convenient entrance”. Continue Reading
Those campaigning for justice for the late internet activist Aaron Swartz as well as general reform to the outdated and archaic CFAA were dealt a bitter blow this week as the U.S. District Court judge handling the prosecution aligned with the wishes of the DoJ, MIT and JSTOR and refused to unseal integral case information.
