The ‘Invisible‘ videos zoom in on matter and show you what is actually there, although invisible to the naked eye.

The Main Page has a nice Periodic Table of the Elements.

I wanted to go see The World’s Fastest Indian today (opening day). I’ve been seeing the ads, and reading articles about it and it looks great. Problem – it’s not showing in Iowa. Grrrr. Guess I’ll just read about old motorcycles.

My dad had an Indian when he was young. I remember him talking about it having a foot operated clutch, so you had to lean the same direction every time you stopped.

It takes those images and text and then algorithmically lays them out using the rule of thirds and so on.

The default is toilet art.

Here’s a fantastic idea for a brand new computer game. Firstly, there’s this yellow blob (with a mouth) which has to roam round a maze swallowing little pills. Meanwhile, four ghosts (named Blinky, Pinky, Inkey, and of course, Clyde) are chasing you as you listen to a high-pitched wailing noise.

Ask a Republican – by Richard Martin (R-Ohio)

“How fat is the dollar? And is a weak dollar really good?” Thats a very good question! The short answer is “I dunno.” The longer answer is “I really do not know.”

Calorie for calorie, leafy green vegetables like spinach with its delicate texture and jade green color provide more nutrients than any other food.

Nuggets

For the first time, MIT researchers have incorporated a plant’s ability to convert sunlight to energy into a solid-state electronic “spinach sandwich” device that may one day power laptops and cell phones.
