Dropping coins into the piggy bank can be quite uninspiring. So a different kind of piggy banks are emerging, the face kind where you literally feed it with coins.
Not only do you save but you also entertain yourself. It’s like having a pet that feeds on money. The eyes acts as sensors to which it will detect your presence before gulping up the money you leave on its mouth. Neat eh?
This is definitely a game that sparks the otaku in you. I understand otaku is used particularly in manga and anime but hey, if you’re crazy about something else it’s otaku too right?
Anyway you need to check out this handmade Japanese Marble Maze, it looks damn fun :P
You guys, I need to get myself one of these. It’s better than spending $15 million on an ugly house in the woods - I’ll buy $15million worth of these and pass about for people to use. That’ll make a better statement, no?
This is an eco-house that is made in a such a way that it generates more energy than it uses. It is an eco-house that is suppose resemble a flower of a certain orchid species. From this angle, it looks like a mutated lobster - but that’s okay the money spent on it makes it the most sensational monument ever build in the country side of UK.
I am not surprised that the anonymous buyer wanted to remain anonymous but rumors have it that the person is from the entertainment industry. I am putting my money on one of England’s knights.
Seriously, why would anyone in their right mind would spend $15 million on a house like that? So what if it generates more energy than it uses? If the purpose is to set an example then the target for such setting aims at the higher echelon of society only. Sure, like I have $15million in my drawers right now hidden under a pile of underwear. How about feeding some poor nation or sponsor 1,000 children from poor countries with that money?
A perfect camera for the memorable moments in life. This Sony’s camcorder pretty much the no.1 choice if I am looking for a camcorder camera that shoots in HD.
The shell is made out of titanium as well, so that means the camera is light but not cheap-plastic light. A compilation of its specs:
* Records to Memory Stick PRO Duo media
* Sony’s ClearVid CMOS Sensor (with Exmor derived technology)
* BIONZ image processor
* 4.0 MP still images
* Sony Face Detection technology
The camera is going to be released on May 30, 2008. You can pre-order yours from Amazon today.
I was wondering if there were such a thing as “Hottest Tech Babes” because I was watching G4 TV and I KNOW I have seen some good looking ladies yakking away about technology, gaming and gadgets. So I googled “Hottest Tech Babes” and found AskMen.com has already covered that. Duh. They’d cover anything about hot babes. Olivia in her Princess Leia outfit when the princess was kept hostage by Jabba the Hut.
But, one thing…in their list of Top 10 hottest babes, they didn’t include Olivia Munn of Attack of the Show. WTF? She’s hotness even without geek drool. What I can’t believe is Layla Kayleigh made it to the Top 10 list, i mean she isn’t hot at all and so unnatural when she does The Feed. You can see her reading off the chalkboard or whatever while Olivia does it ever so naturally, you could almost swear she grew up in Attack of the Show.
Check out the Hottest Tech Babes from AskMen.com, but I still think Olivia should have been No. 1. Take that woman vice president of Google out of there, mien gott.
Mute the video as I find the music to be corny. But the robots presented here are pretty cool. We’ve definitely come a long way in respects to AI and it won’t be long before we have a robotic nanny.
Hey, they have a robotic donkey already, who balances really well even though you gave it a kick in the ass. :P
Come May 13, 2008, the ASIMO robot, lovable mascot of Honda, will conduct the Detroit Orchestra to perform “Impossible Dream” in hopes attracting people to their DSO music education programs. Read the press release here:
DETROIT, U.S.A., April 23, 2008– ASIMO will focus attention on the Detroit Symphony Orchestra’s (DSO) nationally acclaimed music programs for young people in Detroit by conducting the orchestra as it performs “Impossible Dream” to open a special concert performance with renowned cellist Yo-Yo Ma at 8 p.m, Tuesday, May 13. Honda hopes ASIMO’s appearance will draw attention to the DSO’s music education programs, and particularly the DSO’s effort to encourage and support involvement of children in Detroit.
n addition, ASIMO will demonstrate its unique capabilities for hundreds of area school children at 10:45 a.m, May 14 prior to a specially arranged master class in Orchestra Hall, where a select group of music students will receive personal music instruction from Yo-Yo Ma. In attendance will be students from the Detroit School of Arts (DSA), Detroit Renaissance and Cass Technical high schools, as well as from schools across metro Detroit and Windsor, Canada.
ASIMO, which stands for Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility, is designed to help people and will someday assist the elderly and disabled in their homes. But while Honda continues to develop and enhance ASIMO’s capabilities, ASIMO is being used today to encourage and inspire young students to consider studies in math and science. The addition of music education to ASIMO’s repertoire is a natural extension of these efforts.
As recently announced, Honda is providing the DSO with a gift of more than $1 million to create The Power of Dreams Music Education Fund. With the Detroit Public Schools drastically reducing or eliminating music programs due to financial constraints, many students are denied the opportunity to learn to play instruments, read music, and participate in bands or orchestras. Honda has partnered with the DSO to develop an innovative, multi-faceted program to promote and support music education as well as to promote diversity in the field of classical music. In addition to sponsorship of the YoYo Ma performance and Master’s Class for students in May, over the next five years the Honda partnership with DSO will include:
· Launch of a new initiative called The Power of Dreams String Project to provide introductory music education/string training to children in metro-Detroit communities where opportunities are non-existent or unaffordable.
· Establishment of The Power of Dreams Music Scholar program to provide private lessons to aspiring students with financial need in the String Project, DSO Civic Ensembles and/or DSA, enabling them to fully develop their musical capabilities.
· Support of DSO Civic Youth Ensemble performances; the DSO’s educational partnership activities with the DSA; and the DSO’s spring Educational Concert Series for metro area school children in Orchestra Hall at the Max M. Fisher Music Center.
· Support of the 2008 Classical Roots Gala which raises funds for programs such as the DSO’s African-American Fellowship Program.
This really cool light pole is basically a play on infractions of light rays that you can see using a microscope on fiber optics. Designer Paul Cocksedge wanted to create an illusion of a bending light so what’s better than utilizing a bit of children’s science and make a light rod that reflects light to make it seem like a bending light? All you need is a bulb at the base and long glass rode slightly bend at the top and voila, bended light!
