This video shows you how to save spoiled wine in less than 1 minute for literally one cent.
Enjoy!
Have you ever opened a bottle of wine, been so pumped to drink it, thought it smelled a little weird, but needed the wine and drank it anyway? (You have.) (We all have.) Don’t do that! Never do that again! This mind-blowing wine trick from Reactions shows you how to fix your spoiled wine … with a penny.
The video explains you seriously just need to put a penny (a clean one. Clean your penny very thoroughly.) into a glass of your spoiled wine, stir it around briefly with a spoon, and pull it back out. The reason your wine will immediately taste different is because the copper from the penny reacts with the sulfur molecules the wine has developed from overexposure to oxygen. This causes odorless copper sulfide crystals to form, making your favorite drank drankable again.
You totally have spoiled wine. You totally have a penny. You totally have no excuse to drink spoiled wine anymore. Though who am I to judge your wine habits? “Desperate times call for desperate measures” was actually first said by a penniless man with a spoiled bottle of wine, so go ahead and do what you must.

“How To get to Mars” is a clip from the IMAX documentary “Roving Mars” from 2006. This is an edited short version.
From Wiki : Spirit, MER-A (Mars Exploration Rover — A), is a robotic rover on Mars, active from 2004 to 2010. It was one of two rovers of NASA’s ongoing Mars Exploration Rover Mission. It landed successfully on Mars at 04:35 Ground UTC on January 4, 2004, three weeks before its twin, Opportunity (MER-B), landed on the other side of the planet. Its name was chosen through a NASA-sponsored student essay competition. The rover became stuck in late 2009, and its last communication with Earth was sent on March 22, 2010.
The rover completed its planned 90-sol mission. Aided by cleaning events that resulted in higher power from its solar panels, Spirit went on to function effectively over twenty times longer than NASA planners expected following mission completion. Spirit also logged 7.73 km (4.8 mi) of driving instead of the planned 600 m (0.4 mi), allowing more extensive geological analysis of Martian rocks and planetary surface features. Initial scientific results from the first phase of the mission (the 90-sol prime mission) were published in a special issue of the journal Science.
On May 1, 2009 (5 years, 3 months, 27 Earth days after landing; 21.6 times the planned mission duration), Spirit became stuck in soft soil. This was not the first of the mission’s “embedding events” and for the following eight months NASA carefully analyzed the situation, running Earth-based theoretical and practical simulations, and finally programming the rover to make extrication drives in an attempt to free itself. These efforts continued until January 26, 2010 when NASA officials announced that the rover was likely irrecoverably obstructed by its location in soft soil, though it continued to perform scientific research from its current location.
The rover continued in a stationary science platform role until communication with Spirit stopped on sol 2210 (March 22, 2010). JPL continued to attempt to regain contact until May 24, 2011, when NASA announced that efforts to communicate with the unresponsive rover had ended. A formal farewell was planned at NASA headquarters after the Memorial Day holiday and was televised on NASA TV.

The holidays are over and you likely have gifts you need to write thank you cards for. Here’s how to do it with class.
Enjoy!
A great thank you note is a lot more than a piece of paper with “thank you” written on it, however. This primer will have you writing thank you notes so good, people will want to give you presents just to receive one.
Thank you notes are a terrific way to show your gratitude, and this video from the Art of Manliness YouTube channel covers all the ins and outs of writing the best thank you note possible. You’ll learn things like:
- When it’s appropriate to write a thank you note.
- What stationery is best to use.
- You should always use a euphemism when referring to a gift of money (like generosity, kindness, or gift).
- Ways to show your appreciation for gifts and hosted events by describing what you liked about the event, or how you plan to use an item.
If your note is for someone you don’t see very often, adding a little news about your life can make your thank you note even more appreciated. With the holidays coming to a close, don’t delay, and get those thank you notes sent out as soon as possible.
