The Weeknd with Daft Punk
The 2017 Grammy Awards had some top-flight highs — Beyoncé — and ridiculous lows — technical difficulties on Adele's George Michael tribute and Metallica and Lady Gaga's duet. Sadly, they can't get it right even for the biggest night in music. But all that could almost be forgiven when the Weeknd and Daft Punk took the stage for a medley of "Starboy" and "I Feel It Coming". From the epic sci-fi set design to the Weeknd's perfect performance, they nearly stole the show.
Ghost in the Shell
In a distant future, the counter-terrorist network Public Security Section 9 is hunting the elusive cyborg Kuze. The Major, leader of Section 9, is told by Kuze that her past might not be the story she's been told — and the hunt for the truth becomes as important as taking down the villain. Scarlett Johansson stars as Motoko Kusanagi in the first live-action adaptation of Ghost in the Shell, coming to theaters March 31, 2017.

The Jerry Maguire Video Store
America: land of the free, home of the strange. Americans are good at lots of things, but nothing can beat our love of bizarre collections. Topping that list is the Jerry Maguire Video Store in Los Angeles. It's a store that doesn't sell anything and stocks only one product: Over 14,000 copies of Tom Cruise's 1996 film Jerry Maguire. The brainchild of the creators of Everything is Terrible!, the final goal of the project is to build a shining pyramid in the Nevada desert to house their collection for future generations.
Mercedes-Benz Pre-Safe Pink Noise
It's been available on production vehicles since mid-2015, yet Mercedes-Benz Pre-Safe Pink Noise is no less interesting today. Tapping into your body's natural reflexes, it plays a short blast of "pink noise" when it detects an imminent, high-volume collision. This causes the stapedius muscle in your ears to contract, protecting them against loud noises and reducing any potential hearing damage. Yet another safety feature that you hope you'll never have to use.

Happiness and the Lottery
A funny thing happens when a lot of money falls into your lap — you don't stay happy for very long. Termed the Hedonic Treadmill, it describes the tendency for people to return to a baseline of happiness after major positive or negative events. This TED talk uses studies of lottery winners — and a cutthroat game of Monopoly — to show that you really can't buy happiness. At least not for very long.

Tyler, The Creator Interviews Seth Rogen

North Carolina's Can-Opener Bridge
In Durham, North Carolina, there's a bridge that eats trucks by the hundreds. Located at the corner of Gregson and Peabody streets, the railroad overpass was built over one hundred years ago, at a height of 11 feet 8 inches. With modern overpasses built at 15 feet, this means serious trouble for truckers who aren't paying attention — and Jürgen Henn has made a little business capturing the crashes over the last eight years. Watch a compilation here and visit his website, 11foot8.com.
