X-Ray Vision

May 27th, 2005 corey No comments

So apparently a security company named Qinetiq has developed millimeter wave technology which allows specialized X-Ray scanners to see through clothes. While this is an interesting story from a privacy and security perspective, it is overshadowed by the pictures used to demonstrate the technology. Apparently this technology has been tuned and specialized to call out passengers with unwieldy erections. This just goes to show that sex always sells…. “is that a huge knife in your newspaper, or are you just happy to see me.”

The Carbonater!

May 26th, 2005 aaron No comments

So I finally broke down and bought my own homebrew kegging system. That alone is wicked cool, but to add to the celebration I got this cool little thing called the Carbonater. It attaches to any standard 2 litter bottle, and can carbonate any liquid. With carbonated cool-aid live up to expectations? Is carbonated milk as bad as it sounds? Only time will tell….

google maps

I know you probably all use this by now, but for those who don’t, you really should. Not only are the normal maps clearer than yahoo or mapquest, but the map is scrollable.

On top of that, you can switch the view and see the picture in satellite view. I cant wait until brainsearch.google.com is out next month……

Store Wars

This is a hilarious flash parody of star wars with a nice organic message. This action packed pesticide free ride contains some of the greatest characters to bless the silver screen, such as Obiwan-Canoelli, Chew- Broccoli, and Princess Lettuce. It really is much better then it sounds!

funny crash

if any of you guys has a smaller mountain bike from your childhood in the garage you want to part with but wonder, can I really guarantee this bike will have a good safe home? You should give…..or sell it to me. I’m looking at making a trials bike, and since my current bike is a little big for it I need a smaller mountain bike to start with. What’s trials? Check out these links…good stuff
