1991 National Beard and Mustache Competition [video]
The video below is from the 1991 National Beard and Moustache Championship. You probably wouldn't expect a crowd to go completely wild at facial hair competition, but you'll get way more than you expected if you stick around for the 2nd guy [video].So is the video real? From the beginning, we had our suspicions. The clip's grainy video noise is almost too perfect. So we contacted an expert.
"I suspect it's not real," said Phil Olsen, founder of the website Beard Team USA.
"The first time I saw the video was today... I don't recognize any of the people in the video. Nor had I ever heard of the National Beard and Moustache Championship held in Tacoma in 1991 until now. If there was such an event in Tacoma in 1991, I am surprised I had not heard of it before."
Alas, the beard cage is most likely a fake. But just in case you get some hairy inspiration, here's a menu of moustache styles:

NASA App for iPhone
Good news space nerds. NASA just released an app for the iPhone and iPod Touch. The application is available free of charge in the iTunes App Store.
Here's a quote from the official press released posted on the U.S. Air Force's website:
"Making NASA more accessible to the public is a high priority for the agency," said Gale Allen, director of Strategic Integration and Management for NASA's Exploration Systems Mission Directorate in Washington. "Tools like this allow us to provide users easy access to NASA information and progress at a fast pace."
The NASA App also allows users to track the current positions of the International Space Station and other spacecraft currently orbiting Earth in three views: a map with borders and labels, visible satellite imagery, or satellite overlaid with country borders and labels.
For more information about NASA's iPhone application, visit: http://www.nasa.gov/iphone or you can download the app from the iTunes Store here.
