This is crazy, an Israeli inventor has come up with a skyscraper escape pod. Jonathan “Yoni” Shimshoni and a team of aspiring inventors in Israel watched a television documentary about victims trapped on the upper floors of the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.
The Office of emergency management in New York City has said no to the plan so far because of other safety related issues.
Cory over at boingboing.net got an interesting email from somebody claiming to be a lawyer. Very strange…. You have to wonder if the people responsible for the camera theft are going to pop out of the Internet woodwork somewhere and totally open themselves up to all sorts of vigilante justice.
A woman’s trip to Hawaii goes sour when she loses her Digital Camera with over 500 photos on her Memory Card. Luckily, somebody finds the camera, reports it to a park ranger, and even leaves their contact info. So when this lady calls them, they tell her how much their kid likes the camera, but they will send her the memory card with her pictures. But they don’t even do that!!! Wow cheap, rude, criminal, and they live somewhere in Canada. Now if only this lady would post the address of these low life scum so things could get more interesting…

Google called the Bush administration’s request for data on Web searches as “so uninformed as to be nonsensical” in papers filed in San Jose federal court Friday, arguing that turning over the information would expose its trade secrets and violate the privacy of its users.

Well, we all knew about the Bush administration being nonsensical. 
I was just cruising through the program guide on Express Vu, and noticed that CBC is carrying the olympics in HD! I had heard so much about NBC carrying the games in High Definition that I didn’t hear or notice that CBC would be doing the same.
So far the coverage has been excellent, I just saw a Canadian win the womens freestyle skiing mogul gold medal. The CBC truely has some of the best sports casters in the world. They have plenty to say about the atheletes without trying to make every athlete’s story into an under dog story (cough cough NBC ). Its nice to have two networks, with different view points and coverage, both in HDTV.
I’m looking forward to the hockey final in HD!
This is insane, somebody made a Rube Goldberg device in the popular PC game Half Life 2. You can watch it via Google Video. It is quite elaborate, and must have taken some time to build.
