Like It's 2001 All Over Again
After playing their "last show" back in 2003, somewhat under the radar indie rockers Gods Reflex (sic) have found themselves together and making music again. Despite the grammar nazi in me disliking the absence of an apostrophe in their name, I couldn't be happier about a band reuniting. I suppose my own personal history leaves a soft spot for mid-west indie rock but ...

The CharmingBurka
The CharmingBurka is a burka that comes equipped with a Bluetooth antenna & micro-controller. This lets the wearer send a self-defined photo to nearby phones with Bluetooth enabled--all without breaking any rules of the Koran! I guess the target audience for such a device are those who are strictly religions and don't wish to deviate from that, but still wanna let ...

Barack Obama Has A Posse
Shepard Fairey, well-known artist and somewhat social subvert has produced a rather striking print in a style similar to his OBEY series of work to promote 2008 presidental hopeful, Barack Obama. Apperently, prints sold out very quickly. From Fairey's own... keyboard: I believe with great conviction that Barack Obama should be the next President. I have been payin ...

US Navy Blows Up Shit
Seems the Navy has developed a railgun firing system that pretty much ruins anyone's day that's on the receiving end. Turns out it breaks records, as well as anything else near it. In the demonstration Thursday, engineers fired the electromagnetic railgun at what they said was a record power level: 10 megajoules. The previous railgun power-use record was about 9 me ...

Rock Band > Lost
To avoid last nights television cult meeting known as Lost, I purchased Rock Band (beware of resized browser window), and spent the evening in. Mark had to pick me up from Target because the box was way to big to get home on my bike with it (I probably could have made it by balancing on my handlebar, but I didn't want to take the chance). The Dude (Mike Stein's ca ...

Russia Brings Sexy Back To Military Uniforms
It looks as though the Russian Army has recently redesigned some of their uniforms. All I can say is, if the average Russian Army recruit looks anything like this, I'm looking forward to Cold War 2: Electric Boogaloo.
