Loving Breakbot’s newest single, Baby I’m Yours, featuring Irfane. But I'm even more impressed by the music video. Created by Irina Dakeva (of Wizz Design), the rotoscope animation was tediously made with over 2,000 watercolor paintings. Check out motionographer's interview with Irina on her process. Previously, Björk Rides Magnificent Waves of Clay.
What's your training about? Would any of it matter if your life depended upon it? If not, what is your training providing you with?
New buildings, decorations, wasabi crop and asian pear tree. Inside the mystery box we have:
Finally out of the beta-only invites, Google Voice is now officially out for the USA. Google Voice can link multiple numbers together and customize the way calls are received and sent to.
Did you ever, as a know-nothing kid, push against your closed eyelids for the pleasure of the resultant light show? LCD bending takes the low-tech fun of physical retinal stimulation and updates it for the 21st century. And, as the title suggests, the end result looks very much like a sort of angelic, fractal-based fingerpainting.
When I tried to send a free gift back to my friend, I got this popup I clicked skip the first time, and it came up twice more. So I logged in, it imported my contacts...
So our GUY has traded wallets with a gangster, met a beautiful Grocery Store cashier, and used the Gangsters credit card.
Posted with permission via HereComeTheYanks.com Ok, so my prediction of a 3-1 USA victory didn't come true. But I can honestly say that I am extremely happy with a 1-1 draw!! There were times where we looked shaky (first 15 minutes). But there were also times when we were taking it to them (Jozy's great run down the flank only to be denied by the woodwork).
Happy UK vs US World Cup Day! Says Metafilter:
French Canadian filmmaker Patrick Boivin's Iron Man parody, featuring his own baby daughter, is absolutely impeccably done. The special effects look FANTASTIC.
You'd think a Hummer couldn't get any more over-the-top (unless you're talking a horse-drawn Hummer or remote-controlled Hummer, of course), but Japanese tuner Calwing’s US division, 213 Motoring has come out with a Hummer boasting a whole extra set of wheels. I'm not quite sure why this is necessary, but nonetheless, Bornrich reports:
Recently I've become fascinated by vertical gardens. They're cropping up all over the place, whether it's in my neighborhood's newest hair salon or in San Diego as the beginnings of a new company. Vertical gardens have several cool advantages over horizontal ones:
Alter Evo on Flickr has created this amazing starfighter and service unit vehicle. This is what he says about it:

I've seen lots of cool case mods, but this FIFA 10 PC case mod with an integrated working BBQ grill pretty much blows all the others right out of the water.
This is a pic-by-pic preview of Issue 13 from Hamburger Eyes! This 150 page zine is stellar! Issue 13 features beautiful photography from the following:
Pretty impressive, as far as LEGO portraiture goes. Via The Telegraph:
It's only a patent, so don't get too excited (though I have to admit, I'm already pretty excited). Via PatentlyApple,
Congrats to MuscleNerd, the first to jailbreak the almighty iPad. Via DVICE:
A random article from India claims that Johnny Depp is actually more a funderwhacker than just as Alice in Wonderland's Mad Hatter.
The end of Alice in Wonderland features a bit of an obtuse dance by Mad Hatter Johnny Depp, deftly termed a Funderwhack.
I bought a canon 7D and used it for an entire weekend. I noticed it dropped frames much more than my Canon 5D. There were many more aliasing problems with fine detail in the background. The camera is just plain awful in low light situations. Anything above 400 ISO I was getting too much noise to deal with. The only thing it was great at was taking lots of stills at a high rate of speed. This feature is great for certain types of sports photography. Overall I was very unhappy with the ...
Flavorwire has compiled an incredible collection of dance videos, featuring all the Hollywood greats, from Fred Astaire to John Travolta to the cast of Slumdog Millionaire.

Says Metafilter, "YouTube has launched Disco. From TestTube - the GoogleLabs of YouTube - it's like Pandora lite with videos. Create and share playlists, or just search for an artist and see what it comes up with."
Ikea Hacker features a nice Ikea mod: Romain turns the Ivar side unit into a camera dolly. "A few days ago, I found out that the Ivar 'wooden ladder' was perfect to use it as rails for my cinema dolly! I can now make some nice sequence shots with this 18€ accessory from Ikea."
Finally, what appears to be a fair and worthy competitor to the iPhone: Google's Nexus One. Unfortunately, not much competition concerning the price- runs exactly the same amount as the iPhone.
That's right, cars aren't the only mode of transportation worth customizing. Dekochari, the Japanese art of pimping your bicycle:
California Redwoods are some of the oldest and tallest trees on Earth, so snapping a single photograph couldn't possibly capture their majestic entirety.
A brand new Japanese prototype offers users the ability to manipulate real 3D forms, employing a touch interface with a squeezy, rubbery feel.
Sorry Nissan Land Glider, the BMW Simple makes you look like a Granny car. This prototype truly feels like a car and motorcycle combined (plus it bears an amazing resemblance to the Tron light cycle).
Scotland's Danny MacAskill first came to the world's attention in April 2009 when his roommate uploaded a video of his insane mountain bike stunts. The video amassed more than 350,000 views in the first forty hours it was uploaded.
Believe it or not, yes, Youtube is getting ready for high definition. But, because (me thinks) of the cost structure involved, they ain't advertising the hell out of this feature, yet.
Even if you aren't sure what a water feature is, don't you think you should have one by now? Come on--get with the times! Take it from a girl who curates instructional videos, like me. Why not go ahead and use the old urn that happens to be laying around? Select a water feature or fountain.
So I have Followed since the first CKY, I love the work you guys have created over these many years, I have wanted to meet and kick it with the crew and just have a good time and here is my opportunity.
Ok, so this one is going to be a prank on people in a public place of your choosing. Two old guys and one of their wives are going to be sitting somewhere or something and then the two guys are going to start arguing over whos car is better and its gonna lead to a drag race outside. The old guys will be two guys from Jackass. It will go something like this....The three old people will be talking and out of no where the old guys will start to argue really loud and it could start off like..1st ...
Large, sweaty men are usually the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word football, but for this video, we're not talking about the guys on the playing field, we're talking about the guys in the fishing boat, the kind of guys who like to use a "football jig".
