how To Kill A Mockingbird

http://www.albinoblacksheep.com/flash/mockingbird, Loading awesome, ready, run. It starts off kinda like a regular bad book report. Then it turns into pure hardcore awesome pilled on awesome explosions of death and flying sky pirates riding flying burning sharks with the aid of ninja and robot scout. Hardcore, with time traveling castle sauce. There was lens flare, and motion blur. Also as it turns out ninja and pirates are in fact literary techniques. Making me wish I had spent more time learning literary techniques. Alas poor army of the undead mockingbird/helicopters of spacey death, I knew you not well enough.

Another Awesome Jacket

Apparently Vash the Stampede is ready for action. This company seems to get by fairly well reproducing movie prop outfits in the real world.

Motorcycles

I now have a reason to ride one. I mean come on. Why else would I have a legit excuse to wear an honest to goodness batman costume during my regular day life. Also sweet ninja spikes. The question that comes immediately to mind is "What happens if you can only get part of the set?"

We Choose the Moon

http://www.wechoosethemoon.org/ It's been crazy busy so I missed the 40th anniversary celebration. For shame. Anyways this site spent the time to give a real time replay of the first moon mission. Now should you so choose, you can go there and watch the entire mission from any point to any other point.

Most Alien Landscapes on Earth

This is a photo essay of the strangest looking areas on the surface of our own world.

Monster?

Charlie Brown drawn in watercolour by one Tim OBrien. I haven't a lot to say on this one. Chuck there kinda speaks for himself. Maybe also Cthulhu or some other eldritch creature of the unknown cosmos. A strange twist on the human face distorted as per the view of some ancient indescribable horror in its unimaginable efforts to communicate with our lost race. Or maybe it's just because cartoon people look weird.

Cthulu Gone Even More Wrong

Pinocchio: Vampire Slayer

Yes indeed. He lies, his nose grows, he stab vampires through the heart with it. That's right Pinocchio kills vampires with his stake making face.

In Honour of the Great Nikola Tesla

A writer by the name of Samantha Hunt has created a fictional novel in the form of a biography for everyone's favourite real life mad scientist. As per most such attempts there is in fact very little fiction required. Telsa was so incredibly strange that it is borderline impossible to make anything up that sounds half as unbelievable as the things he actually did. Here are some excerpts from Telsa's life. Be sure to listen to the bit about death rays.

A Use for Twitter

The most awesome villain from Freakazoid, I'm not going to say his name, is on Twitter. Making him a twit. Which is awesome. The best part is from his episode. The part where we learn he doesn't have a plan he just kidnaps people drags them around tied to a rope for a bit. Then nothing really happens, I guess he lets them go or something. He gets distracted by some pie in a steel cage. I just didn't want to have a ten word entry here. Twitter. Get roped.

Economic Theory

This paper, by Paul Krugman of Yale University, seeks to explore the concept of interstellar trade. An interesting conundrum in that we have no idea how much it should actually cost or how to compensate for time dilation in cargo fees. At present for instance we could ship a freighter full of say, ruby, to the nearest star. At a cost of all the money, time, items of value and effort of every single human being who ever lived working for the next thousand years. Which would end up, should we encounter any aliens who would like to trade. So very expensive they would tell us to go home they'll dig up their own rocks. This happens regardless of the item we would wish to trade. In other words Han Solo would lose approximately one million trillion dollars in operating costs for every trip the Falcon took to sell cargo. Except in the Star Wars universe it only takes, at most, the better part of an afternoon to travel from one end of the galaxy to the other and doesn't seem to cost anything in terms of fuel.

Because Kill All Humans is Beyond Them

Current robots settle for kill all mice or kill all flies. This story about robots with biofuel power supplies. Except, by biofuel, they mean animals not the usual forms of hydrocarbon. No fermenting into ethanol variants with and simple burning like the biofuel found in a car. There's an idea, imagine a car powered by scooping up roadkill. Just kinda gives you the willies don't it. I'm gonna let the exterminators keep this idea. Machines designed to kill somehow come across as more palatable than ones that kill as a secondary function.

Transformers in a Nutshell

Also why explosions aren't the only awesome thing in a good movie. As opposed to say a Bay flick.

Boy Hit By Meteorite

The original story: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/scienceandtechnology/science/space/5511619/14-year-old-hit-by-30000-mph-space-meteorite.html

My own commentary: The meteorite was not traveling at 30000 mph when it hit his hand. The impact on ones hand and the ground from a rock the size of a bullet moving at roughly mach 30 will make a crater a little larger than a foot. No, the rock may have started it's descent at such a speed but by the time it hit the ground it is unlikely it was even approaching the speed of sound.

The Girls of Doctor Who

Just what it says on the tin. Cartoonish, and well done, versions of all the companions The Doctor has had over the decades. The idea appears to be to emphasis how strange the relationship Rose has with The Doctor compared to all the rest. I just think it's interesting with the one chick calling him Professor. Also there is something fantastic about the black and white versions.

Awesome Band Saw Skills

Link. Watch this guy carve with his band saw. It's amazing. Also it gives less then a second to look at the finished product what's up with that. You spend two minutes watching the dude carve out a 2 by 6 then bam a website address. I've seen lots and lots of urls before I wanted to look at the whatever it is that he is making.
