waterproof books | science

"waterproof books, used mainly by skin divers and foul-weather hikers, are finding a new audience among people who simply enjoy a nice warm bath. the new dunkable books are made not from trees, but from plastic resins and inorganic fibers. melcher media, a new york-based publisher, is promoting books that are manufactured using a technology it calls durabooks. The books' pages don't absorb water, and they stretch instead of tearing. other companies make waterproof books with standard wood-based paper that is heavily laminated in the printing process."

twenty one dollars and forty three cents | auction

"I THOUGHT YOU MIGHT NEED SOME MONEY TO PUT IN YOUR MONEY CLIP? THATS WHY I LISTED THIS UNDER MONEY CLIPS. I ALSO FIGURED IF YOU NEED A MONEY CLIP THEN YOU MUST HAVE MONEY TO SPEND. I HAVE BEEN WANTING TO DO AN AUCTION LIKE THIS FOR A WHILE. IM COURIOUS AS TO WHAT SOMEONE WOULD PAY FOR TWENTY ONE DOLLARS AND 43 CENTS. IT MIGHT GO FOR .99 CENTS BUT I DOUBT IT. ID ALSO LIKE TO SEE HOW MANY PEOPLE LOOK AT IT. BUT I REALLY HOPE A MILLIONAIRE BUYS IT FOR A WHOLE LOT MORE THAN ITS WORTH. IF HE DOES I WILL THROUGH IN A MONEY CLIP. IT WOULD WORK OUT GOOD FOR BOTH OF US. THEY WOULD BE TALKING ABOUT US ON THE NEWS AND WE MIGHT EVEN GET INVITED TO THE TONIGHT SHOW WITH JAY LENO OR MABYE THE DAVID LETTERMAN SHOW. THEN WE BOTH WOULD BE INSTANT CLEBS AND HAVE LOTS OF MONEY TOO! SO WHAT DO YOU THINK, SOUND LIKE A PLAN?"

catch me if you can | film

watched catch me if you can last night, interesting story, good movie. catch me if you can is story inspired by the true story of frank abagnale jr., a con artist who took over four millions dollars from the national banks by using fraud checks. steven spielberg is a really great filmmaker, i almost lost faith in him after minority report, he did a very good job here by just not trying to be clever like minority report, phew. by all mean he's still the one to watch if you want to watch a entertaining movie. leonardo dicaprio is awesome here, i liked him since basketball diary, disliked him for a while after titanic. christopher walken is just shining in this movie, loves his acting. tom hanks, is just like usual tom hanks, i started getting bored seeing him already. the score! john williams did a fantastic job for all the music in the movie, all the jazzy songs just suit this movie perfect. finally the opening credit.. don't go in late to the theatre, catch me if you can has one of the best opening credits in years! don't miss it! overall this is a pretty good movie, worth the ticket.

house gymnastics | funny

"House Gymnastics originated from the endeavors of Harrison and Ford in a joint and convoluted attempt to put up a bedroom blind. It could be argued that boredom was the real catalyst for House Gymnastics to take on a more tangible form. The first moves were busted during a house discussion about boredom in the upstairs hallway, a natural meeting place and crossroads within the house."

mathematics of monkeys and shakespeare | science

an interesting study on the possibility of how monkeys can type out "to be or not to be, that is the question" from shakespeare's hamlet.

"I don't know who it was that first talked about the possibility of monkeys typing randomly on typewriters producing Hamlet entirely by chance, but it is an argument that I have often heard. "Sure it's unlikely," I'm told, "but given enough time and enough monkeys, it would happen.""

jesus new face | science

a group of israeli and british forensic anthropologists and computer programmers created a new face for the jesus by the information from the bible, how jewish people look like at the time period. give us different view point to see jesus.

"What did Jesus look like?" the article asks. "An answer has emerged from an exciting new field of science: forensic anthropology. The same science has been used to create artists' depictions of dozens of famous faces, including the father of Alexander the Great and King Midas of Phrygia. This new conceptualization of Jesus is based in large part on the work of Richard Neave, a medical artist retired from the University of Manchester in England."

"My Humping vision is to fail, because who in their right mind is going to look at this site and say, "Damn what a good idea, we should give this guy some money to do this!" I want a web site where people will look and say, "What the Fuck is this all about?" In my opinion, we seem to take this world a little too seriously and forget that it's ok to laugh at things we know our society may find inappropriate. And there is no way my web site should ever be taken seriously. All this web site is here to do is make people laugh by displaying these random rude acts."
