I think I can speak the mind of most people tied into the world economy and say things are a bit on edge right now. As I wrote about earlier, most of this debacle was heralded by the situation with Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. This maelstrom, however, has been brewing for years. One of my [...] The progress of the Large Hadron Collider, the world’s largest particle accelerator, has been an interesting one. An air of cautious and excited attitudes have followed the project as it’s evolved through phases of development. There’s been some controversy surrounding the construction of the device, and with a recent breach of helium containment, it will [...]  September 20th, 2008 | Category: personalI’ve never seen hot air balloons launch in real life before. I guess it’s because I’m not an early rise person. I’m glad I went against my nature to see them take off yesterday morning at 6:30am from a mist covered field. My favorite balloon of the entire show was the dragon one. The happy dragon [...] September 17th, 2008 | Category: televisionThere are only a handful of TV shows that I can watch for a while, and continue watching. I would have to put Cesar Millan’s show Dog Whisperer at the top of that list. It’s awesome. That guy really knows how animals think, from the inside out. What is clear to anyone [...] I’ve run into a wall recently, and it’s 32 bit. The setup I currently have is good enough for most everything else (low to mid-stress games, artwork, etc), but 1080p HD playback and editing required a re-think to what hardware I was running everything on. I never upgrade hardware unless it limits my software’s work [...] What is one of the largest pinch-points of the current economy in the United States? Mortgage loans and the housing bubble, of course. This is only one corner of the multi-faceted tower that comprises the country’s stability as a whole, and its syncopation into the world system. The government acquisition of the lending giants [...] September 8th, 2008 | Category: scienceOne thing that is brought to the forefront by this event is the significance of the sun’s effect on our solar system, and the abnormal stall of an 11 year cycle. It is also noted that there is a constant fluctuation between warming and cooling cycles of the sun, which in turn contribute to the [...] September 4th, 2008 | Category: gamesYou will probably do a double-take after watching the trailer below, thinking it’s an old game for the NES. It tricked me too. This is going to be the new Megaman 9 game released by Capcom! They got back to the basics, and even put in the screen flicker that was a [...] September 3rd, 2008 | Category: paranormalWhen it comes to information that is out of my skill set, I enjoy hearing lectures by experts in those particular fields. What if hundreds of them were officially documented to being witness to unexplainable and curious events? Science logically accounts for roughly 1% of the known universe, and we have explored less than [...] |
