Sweating through your pitch: Forget meeting clients for lunch or a drink. Social saunas are the new networking hotspots.

I hope you’re ready for Zuck’s “Get Low” cover. Heads-up: The lyrics are pretty explicit. In case you love it, they also dropped it on Spotify under the artist name “Z-Pain.” Does anyone have a Tylenol? I need a Z-Painkiller after listening to that.

A Utah couple tied the knot after a skiing accident. Amazing story: Mitchell forgot Jenna broke up with him the day before the accident.

Current bid for the ruby slippers worn by Judy Garland in “The Wizard of Oz” (1939). The shoes were stolen in 2005 by a thief who thought they were decorated with real jewels.
