Made to entertain
Mar 13th
Probabil ca sunt ultimul care alfa de miscarea celor de la Heineken dar cred ca e o campanie care merita tinuta minte si data ca exemplu.
1136 de barbati “au pus botul” fiind pacaliti de sotii, profesori, sefi sa asiste la un concert de muzica clasica exact in ziua si la ora de incepere a unui meci extrem de important Real Madrid – AC Milan (nu sunt microbist deloc). Toate bune si frumoase – concertul incepe, dar dupa 15min incep sa apara pe ecran diferite mesaje de genul “Greu sa il refuzi pe sefu, nu?”, “Pe prietena ta?”. Va las sa vedeti continuarea:

Birds on the wires

Jarbas Agnelli a vazut intr-un ziar o poza cu niste pasari pe cablurile de curent si s-a hotarat sa ia cablurile ca reper pentru un portativ si a pus note muzicale pe locurile unde stateau pasarile. Iata ce a iesit:

Atentie – clipul este foarte explicit. Nu dati click daca va stiti mai slabi cu duhul.
Momentul nasterii este cat se poate de dramatic: puiul cade inert la podea. Alertata cand vede ca nu respira, mama incepe sa-l…resusciteze. Il loveste disperata cu picioarele, exact cum fac medicii cu nou-nascutii care nu vor sa planga.
Zdruncinat bine, puiul deschide, in cele din urma, ochii. Respira greu, la inceput, nesatul parca. In final, insa, reuseste sa se ridice in picioare.

Poveste de pe strada mea
Jun 22nd
De vreo 2 zile aud o gramada de frane bruste pe strada mea. Azi am auzit si o bufnitura ![]()
Baiatul a patit-o destul de nasol; nu vreau sa stiu cum este sa indoi tabla unui Logan si sa spargi un geam cu propriul trup. Au preluat materialul si fostii colegi de le Apropo.ro – Accident filmat de un user Apropo.ro.

Super Tuesday powered by Google & Twitter
Feb 6th
Super Tuesday refers to the Tuesday in early February or March of a presidential election year when the greatest number of states hold primary elections to select delegates to national conventions at which each party’s presidential candidates are officially nominated.
Google teamed up with Twitter and they offer a mashup of GoogleMaps + Twitter Updates so you can see live all the reaction from across the states.
Tachygraphy: How would you like to take a picture from the future?
Jan 9th
Scientists from EniTech Research Labs have come up with a remarkable device (The Gardner device) – a camera that apparently is able to capture images from the future. I shit you not. This device does work like a regular camera but instead of using light to generate the photograph (= writing with light) they use tachyon particles – which are faster then light. At first I thought that this is just another spoof but reading through their website and watching pictures taken with this device leads me to think that this could be the breakthrough of our century. Here’s a small excerpt from they FAQ – which i hope will make things a little clearer:
Q: What is the Gardner Project?
A: The Gardner Project is an effort to develop a device that processes imagery based on faster-than-light particles (tachyon particles). Unlike a camera which processes light, thus depicting the present, this device should theoretically detect the particles originating from a point in time farther ahead than the present. Since faster than light particles move backward in time the particle imagery that is developed should theoretically depict what we would call “future” time.Q: But how can you see into time that different than the one we exist in? Isn’t that impossible?
A: Well actually no. In fact you probably already own a camera that can photograph the past. It’s so trivial we take it for granted. Simply walk outside and take a picture of the night sky. The stars you’re seeing are thousands of years in the past. In fact some of the stars you’re watching don’t even exist anymore and have long since died yet the light continues to take its long journey across the universe on toward our world. If someone on a distant planet (but still in the same galaxy) were watching Earth through a telescope right now, they would see perhaps the early Mesopotamians struggling to rise into civilization or the collapse of the Roman empire but not our current time.Our device is based on a series of carefully calibrated predictions that the particles we detect should be exactly 1,191 days ahead of the time that the image is processed. We have been unable to date to adjust that amount or look farther ahead than that. And the device cannot look into the past since tachyon particles only move backwards, never forward. A good simple example is like this: [Us] <—[tachyon particles]—— [future time]
and here are some example images taken with a normal digital camera and their special device. Attention – both images from each set where taken at the same time. The 3rd set is the most mind blowing – it shows an empty land and then the 2nd image shows a massive construction.
and here is the EniTech Research Labs team presenting the device:

What’s your opinion?
