When I see things like these stop motion movies, it makes me want to go out and try them. It looks like it was fun to do. It's infectious.

We did this when I was a kid, with my father's super 8 movie camera.

I saw a dance performqnce like this. the stage was absolutely dark and you couldn't see anything. The dancer had a remote trigger for a strobe inher hand and as she ran around the stage leaping in the air, she'd click the trigger and fire the strobe. The effect was that she was floating motionless through the air.

I can't remember the company's name. Maybe Ellen Sinopoli?

DucksNuts 09-28-2006 06:20 AM

Corny but cute.

Wait for the entire screen to load up with all four horses and a fence in front of them. Then click on each horse. Make sure your sound is on. Re-click on any horse to make it turn off or turn it back on again. Somebody did some real wizardry of programming to coordinate this! Try clicking on the horses from left to right then right to left then just one or two at a time...

My friend has started a blog about the little village in which we live. I agreed to write a weekly blog called "Extreme Gardening"

You can read it here Also, there are some great photos by various contributors, and it gives you an idea of what our village is like.

A while back I linked to the WikiHow on How to Create a Duct Tape Wallet. Now, for those individuals nervous about RFID cards, here are instructions on How To Create an RFID Blocking Duct Tape Wallet. The author claims that 27 micron thick aluminum will block RFID signals.

So how about an aluminum foil wallet to go with your hat?:tinfoil:

Oh the Ho's! Thanks Bruce. I was wondering what my next piece would be about. I'll get right on it!

Gender Guesser
 
The Gender Guesser is a utility that takes writing samples (over 300 words works best) and attempts to guess the gender of the author.

I have been feeding it some posts from here, but except for TW, not many people consitently write posts that long.

Have fun.

Clodfobble 10-02-2006 10:52 PM

Hmm... a blatantly feminine email to my grandmother (covering topics such as cooking, house cleaning, my relationship with my parents, and repeatedly including the words "pregnant," "breastfeeding," and "baby") was classified as weak male. I think it needs work. :)

Well, it does say it's only %60-70 accurate, which is slightly better than flipping a coin. I think that it looks for passive versus active patterns and the use of more common words rather than subject.

'I bought the brown shoes' would be scored differently than 'The brown shoes were bought by me'. I'm assuming that the bigger the sample, the more accurate it gets.

BigV 10-03-2006 09:22 AM

and multiple samples, so says the info.

A buddy I used to work with (way before personal computers) and I had the idea that we could make action figures that look like individuals. Just mail us a pic and you will get a fully poseable action figure that looks like you!

Sigh.. a great idea before its time!

My ophthalmologist thinks I've stablized and don't need to go to the retinologist at the moment, but when I was going several years ago I was generally the only person in the waiting room under 70. (Or at least it seemed that way.)

It may have already been mentioned....but I just discovered googleearth.com and it's so cool! The view that you get when you change the satellite view from one address to another makes it feel like you're riding the satellite...flying across town, or across the country, way up there in the sky....I stayed on there for hours!

Griff 10-15-2006 01:12 PM

Be careful with that. It could cut into your cellar time! I flew from my ancestral home to here and gave some serious thought to them doing it by sailing ship and horse. impressive

This might be a repeat, sorry in advance if it is. But this is pretty cool. It's a painting that has 50 hidden movies (dark/horror) in it. So far i've only been able to guess 20 out of the 50. Play along and help me out!

17 out of 50 after 15 minutes.;)

22 in about half an hour. I'm stuck.

Nixon now.

Guess before clicking. Nope. Guess again. Nope.

More for the surprise factor than the great googly moogly factor. Here's a (non)clue: I gleaned the link from this month's Boy's Life magazine.
