Put the finishing touch on that awesome zombie costume this Halloween by EATING HUMAN BRAINS. But first, find out what might happen if you do. Besides being a delectable, fatty snack, brains can also transmit diseases like kuru — a variant of Mad Cow Disease — that causes uncontrollable laughter, tremors, and death. Oh, and it can lay dormant for decades. So while you might want to rethink just how authentic you want to get this Halloween, keep in mind that eating the rest of a person isn't too dangerous, so long as you cook everything thoroughly.

Oxford Hill Panache Santal Fragrance Oil

Sandalwood plays a key role in many men's fragrances. Panache Santal from Oxford Hill honors this tradition. While the top note is floral, with scents of lilies and rose, the base is a masculine mix of sandalwood, cedar, and vetiver.

3D Printing in Space

At around $10,000 per pound, shipping anything into space is extremely expensive. Most of the brain power in the new space race has focused on more efficient, multi-use rockets. But a small company called Made In Space has turned that idea on its head: Instead of designing and building better vehicles to get things into orbit, why not just build those things in space? In March 2016, Made In Space sent their second 3D printer to the International Space Station, giving interplanetary travel a huge boost in the process.
