The title says this guy failed the breathalyzer… I don’t see him ever take it. I’m thinking this is one way to get out of taking it. OK, maybe it kind of defeats the purpose, but c’mon, maybe he isn’t really drunk.
Have you ever wondered how small a human egg is, or mitochondria, or a cold virus? This brilliant site has a slider that let’s you go from a coffee bean down to the size of a carbon atom. Pretty freaking brilliant. Thanks Wang!
Mookee sent a pretty cool, animated link showing the assembly of the International Space Station. While I wish it went a little slower and had more detail, it’s pretty cool to see the thing coming together.
Wow. I suddenly feel like I was thrown back in time.
A Louisiana justice of the peace said he refused to issue a marriage license to an interracial couple out of concern for any children the couple might have.Keith Bardwell, justice of the peace in Tangipahoa Parish, says it is his experience that most interracial marriages do not last long.
Someone should make this fellow read out loud the Loving v. Virginia case.
Cute octopi saving each other from becoming sushi.
Ricardo Autobahn has mashed together a danceable video and song based on clips from a variety of movie and TV shows called The Golden Age of Video. While I wish the audio was a bit clearer in parts, it’s a pretty stunning video to see. How many references can you get?
Thanks to Redge for the link!
A long time ago in a galaxy pretty familiar to us, someone made a parody of Shakespeare in Love called George Lucas in Love. If you haven’t seen it do a search for the video; hopefully you’ll still find one posted out there. Anyways, now someone has made a parody of the parody called Darth Vader in Love. While not quite as witty and clever or, even, much of a parody, it’s fun and shows a softer side of Darth Vader not expressed in the movies.
Serge Brunier has taken an amazing picture of the night sky. Each of the 1200 pictures, capturing 300 fields, were made with a Nikon D3 camera with a 50mm lens at f5.6 for six minute exposures. You can view the picture here, and can zoom and pan (Mac users should use the shift and z keys to zoom) and view just how many stars and galaxies there are up there. It’s humbling.
