Kucinich presents Bush Impeachment Articles - June 9, 2008
About bloody time.
Solar Tower
Wow, this has got to be the most annoying documentary ever made. The subject is of vital importance and I had to fight my way through the shitty music and the cheap action movie announcer to find the 30 seconds of real informaiton hidden in this 4 minutes of poorly produced trash.
See magnetic fields courtesy of NASA
One of my dreams is to be able to see magentic fields (radio waves too). This was amazing.
Chick Gets Revenge On Construction Workers
Brilliant.
Greg Palast from the BBC on Bush's Election Fraud Mechanics
When my dad asks me why I won't visit him in the US I direct him to videos like this one.
Reconfigurable basket from Turkey
Wow, that looks useful. I want one. I don't supposed anyone here could translate this guy's sales pitch. It sounds interesting.
Hitchens discusses "The Portable Atheist" on morning joe

SNL Digital Short: Japanese Office
Not sure if anyone else here cares, but all the Japanese language used in this skit is technically correct, though badly pronounced. Well done SNL!

TED: Paul Stamets: 6 ways mushrooms can save the world
Fantastic post.
RevoPower, AMAZING new motor that fits inside your bike tire
Here in Tokyo I see electric versions of this device every day. There's no way I'd buy a petrol powered one if there's an electric version available. In fact (for the US market) -

I appreciate the intellectual excersize that travel to a continent sized asylum can provide. However I have found that with most institutions that are run by the inmates once you get in it's really hard to convince anyone to let you back out again.
TYT: Teacher gets fired for "witchcraft"
My American dad keeps asking me why I don't want to visit him in the US. All I do is point him to stories like this.
Gymnastic Lightsabers
The choice of the Disco version of the Star Wars theme was perfect.
