The Smart Drug, the Continually Worrisome Plant, the Brawl Bar, and Awesomeness in a Video

1. In Germany, there has been "encouraging results" from a new pill that's been dubbed the "anti-stupidity pill," which improves your short-term memory and your attention span. Finally, a pharm targeted to the neglected audience of anxious nerds. (Reuters)

2. Scientists have found some stressed out plants not only pass down their mutations to their children but their increased tendency to mutate. X-men, here we come--at least, flora-style. (Nature)

3. Fight club wrapped in a bar is what China brings us in the form of the Rising Sun Anger Release Bar in Nanjing, where you can break bottles, rant, and hit specially-trained workers. It's spurring some controversy though uh...sounds like any dive bar sans the "specially-trained," no? (BBC)

4. OK Go is awesome. You shouldn't watch any other music video but this. (YouTube, I love you.)
