Ah double jumping, what would we do without it, especially in video games? Double jumping is a common game mechanic that allows players to jump for a second time whilst still in mid air.
But what about double jumping in real life? You might think being able to jump twice might be a useful skill, but this video from the folks over at Nukazooka indicates otherwise.

A comic by George Rottkamp and Andrew Bridgman from Dorkly that takes a look at some of the differences between the schools in the world of Harry Potter and the ones in our world. Unfortunately, Hogwarts isn’t real, because I’m fairly sure that the highschool experiene there would be a lot more interesting than the one I went through when I was young. Well, at least I did the next best thing to actually attending Hogwarts last summer: I went to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Orlando, which was pretty darn amazing.

Youtuber Alex Luthor took some footage of various Hulk and Superman movies, and mashed them together to create a video that simulates an epic battle between the two superheroes. Check it out!
For people who say that the trailer is Fake, well, obviously. I didn’t make this trailer to fool or scam anyone, it’s just a fan trailer. This is just a concept fan trailer for a Hulk vs Superman movie. This was made for fun.

Pokemon is one of those phenomenon that I really didn’t think would have the legs it did. Keep in mind, I am a child of the 90’s, so I was there for its uprising. I also wrote for a site that helped spread the love of these little beasts for years. But had you told me back in those days that in 2016, Pokemon would be even more popular, I would of thought you a liar. Yet here we are, 2016 and Pokemon is on the tongues of more people than it was almost 20 years ago. Hell, Maroon 5 just made a music video about it, for crying out loud.
That said, here are the top ten Pokemon boss fights across the various games and platforms for you fans of Pocket Monsters. See, told you I was an O.G. (original gym leader).

How does Fusion Energy work and is it a good idea?
Fusion power is energy generated by nuclear fusion. Fusion reactions fuse two lighter atomic nuclei to form a heavier nucleus. It is a major area of plasma physics research that attempts to harness such reactions as a source of large scale sustainable energy. Fusion reactions are how stars transmute matter into energy.
