This nifty little toy taps into the users brain waves to determine if he or she is focusing on the ball. If the uses is able to concentrate on the ball it will activate a fan in the games base and cause the ball to levitate.

What the Internet was made for…

It’s similar to how people interact with computers in Minority Report but not a movie.

God made mud.
God got lonesome.
So God said to some of the mud, “Sit up!”
“See all I’ve made,” said God, “the hills, the sea, the sky, the stars.”
And I was some of the mud that got to sit up and look around.
Lucky me, lucky mud.
I, mud, sat up and saw what a nice job God had done.
Nice going, God.
Nobody but you could have done it, God! I certainly couldn’t have.
I feel very unimportant compared to You.
The only way I can feel the least bit important is to think of all the mud that didn’t even get to sit up and look around.
I got so much, and most mud got so little.
Thank you for the honor!
Now mud lies down again and goes to sleep.
What memories for mud to have!
What interesting other kinds of sitting-up mud I met!
I loved everything I saw!

MIT grad student David Merrill demos Siftables — cookie-sized, computerized tiles you can stack and shuffle in your hands. These future-toys can do math, play music, and talk to their friends, too. Is this the next thing in hands-on learning?

An amazing fireworks show for the Atlantis Palm Island grand opening

It should be mentioned that the Palm island is roughly 3.5 miles in length.  The price tag on this show… $20 million big ones.

Worth every minute!

I don’t want to be “that guy” but I did not like this movie.  There is no reason to listen to me because, apparently, the movie is well received on IMDb, by critics, and other people I know (who told me to see it and I’ll never again take advice from).  I figured it would be okay but I just wanted it to be over.  I have a slightly different taste in movies so… maybe that’s the problem but I wouldn’t ever recommend someone see this and will never watch it again.  I feel like Mr. Ferrell needs to change it up a little.  He’s the same F-ing character in every film.  It’s old and not funny.  Anyway… If you see it and like it… you’re stupid… so there.

While we’re on the subject (see ludacris post), this is like watching Bush cut down a tree to appeal to working class southern men (and about as genuine); except strike working class southern men and replace it with middle class middle aged white women. I understand obama wants to win, so I can’t criticize him for playing the game. I can, however, criticize the American voters for not having enough respect for their country and forcing the candidates to do stupid, meaningless, “I could relate to that guy” crap.  On the bright side, he does punch like a champ.

P.S. If someone forced you to do this, how much respect could you have for them?  I can only imagine the derogatory thoughts going through his head keeping him smiling.
