I love my laptop. It goes wherever I go. Unfortunately, that means that it also gets pretty grubby after a while. The screen gets dusty. The frame gets smudgy. The spaces between the keys fill up with crumbs of questionable origins. And my desktop? That thing is a dust bunny magnet.

When choosing a security system for the office, Billy Chasen decided to ditch the traditional lock & key barricade for something a little more 21st century. He hacked together a device that uses a web server, servo motor and some parts from Home Depot to enable locking & unlocking via text message. Chasen maintains a list which gives access to green lit office workers, who enter by simply texting "lock" or "unlock"... and voilà, open sesame.

A scorpion sting won't kill you, but who the hell wants to get stung by a scorpion? Knox can then look on in laughter as they try to get their valuable out of the box.

Meg White is often not fully respected as a drummer and just seen as more of a background to Jack Whites stage act. But i really respect what shes doing and her style.

Here is the final results. These same guys are now pushing i...
Bill, Bobbie, and Drew present information on a circle. The presentation defines the key points of a circle. The area of a circle is Pi (3.14) x radius x radius. The diameter of a circle is the line drawn from one end to another inside the circle. The radius is the center of the circle to the edge. To find Pi, one simply takes the circumference/diameter. Circumference/diameter will always equal Pi (3.14) no matter the circle’s size. The final point is “what makes a circle a circle”? It is a b...
