You are viewing the most recent 20 entries April 30th, 2008: Owner of Apparitions Comics shot in robbery :( Still alive though. http://blog.mlive.com/grpress/2008/04/c Current Mood:  sadApril 15th, 2008: Star Wars RPG Anyone interested in a tabletop Star Wars game? Running it in place of Scion (every other Friday), starting late May. Email me or leave a comment. December 18th, 2007: Blargh Can't get to LJ from work any longer, so my only point of contact with the outside world is through any of my phones, my personal email, or my work email. I'm pretty sure personal email will be shut off soon since to be anywhere close to secure and prevent data from being sent outside the company, they really do have to disable that. Le sigh. Current Mood: devious July 31st, 2007: The New Psychology of Leadership Fascinating read. Didn't know this was a new way of looking at leadership. That is to say, I didn't know Bush was using cutting edge tactics and like most people thought he was just a bumbling buffoon. Sheds some new light on things. http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?ch July 19th, 2007July 3rd, 2007: Thank you for loitering, please come again! http://us.cnn.com/2007/SHOWBIZ/Movies/0 Some 7-11's are being turned into Kwik-E-Marts to hype up the Simpsons movie. They'll be selling Buzz Cola, KrustyOs, and Squishees. Now if only they had one around here! ...oh wait. I don't care all that much. But it's still fun to see what hoops advertisers are going through these days. June 25th, 2007: Game: Crush http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udEywtrj It's amazing. It's a 3d platform game, sure, but if you set it up right you can turn the world into a 2d world for a moment. I think you have to see it to understand it. June 21st, 2007: Why the brain tells tall tales http://www.newscientist.com/channel/bei My interests are pretty varied, but this article hits some of the more tricky ones: neurology, perception, and the fairness of legal systems. Good read. Current Mood:  workin w/free cookieJune 6th, 2007: Asperger Syndrome I'd like to hear from anyone who has experience with Asperger Syndrome. Comments are screened. Current Mood:  curiousJune 1st, 2007May 12th, 2007: Yeah baby http://www.kerberos-productions.com/i Me = Glacialis Current Mood:  bouncyMay 10th, 2007: Ancient Greek computer You might have heard about this. Divers in the early 1900's recovered bits from a 2,000 year old shipwreck. Turns out there was a device with intricate gears and of unknown purpose in there. Can't scrape off the sea gunk for fear of damaging it, and now they finally have the technology to look at it. The 7 page article in the new Yorker explains it all, but there's two other links with additional information. The world's first "computer", depending on what you consider a computer. It's still a lot more sophisticated than anyone thought any civilization was for that time. Article: http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2 Extra stuff: http://www.antikythera-mechanism.gr/ More stuff: http://www.xtekxray.com/antikythera_rad Current Mood: Neat!May 7th, 2007May 4th, 2007May 3rd, 2007: Tim Kring and Masi Oka http://www.wired.com/entertainment/holl Okay, it's a few days old, but it's still good. May 1st, 2007April 27th, 2007April 19th, 2007: FUNNY! If you've seen 300, click here. If you haven't, it won't be nearly as funny and I advise you to wait so you'll get the full impact. No really, wait! |
