Amazon is now expanding its distribution centers to San Francisco, Los Angeles, Indiana, New Jersey, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. Unfortunately for the expansion, consumers in the area will likely have to pay sales tax accordingly as Amazon had to come to an agreement to lawmakers.
Local business owners for the areas are not very excited for Amazons expansion since the competition and has increased majorly.

Toothbrush to the Rescue!
Have you ever been threatened that your toothbrush would be used to clean the toilet? Well, an astronaut on the International Space Station used his to clean a bolt. The bolt was sticking and was not cooperating with the astronauts, so they decided to improvise and tie a toothbrush to a metal pole to clean the pole with.
The standard EVA takes about eight hours with only six hours in space, but since the bolt wasn't cooperating, the astronauts had to stay in the suits for ten hours! The worst part is there is no bathroom and no food!
