Injured horses huddle together near 149th and Drexel after the tornado hit Moore, Okla., on Monday, May 20.

I really need to stop looking at these pictures. :(

3D Coffee Art

I've been seeing Kazuki Yamamoto's coffee art for some time now, but now he's added a new dimension. His 3D coffee art is beyond amazing. It'd be hard to drink and ruin one of his creations.

and it has been repeated.
It is a measure of the man that his failures have often proved more fruitful than most people’s successes.  Einstein’s experiment was carried out at IBM Labs in 1993 and resulted in the first quantum teleportation of matter.  The event would finally resolve the 1927 debates in Bohr’s favor and eventually give rise to the project announced last week.

JUST. SAY. "THANK YOU." :)

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?' Actually, who are you not to be? ...Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. ...as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

~ Marianne Williamson

Just say "thank you." :)

I don't know all the facts in this case, but according to this article it seems like a very sad ruling.

That must be tough on that family

Richmond Sunlight is a non-partisan website that aggregates information about the General Assembly, the lawmaking body that governs the state of Virginia. It is an independent, volunteer-run website that is in no way affiliated with the Virginia General Assembly or the state government.

Virginia Decoded provides the Code of Virginia on one friendly website. Court decisions, legislation past and present, inline definitions, a modern API, and all of the niceties of modern website design. It’s like the expensive software lawyers use, but free and wonderful.

I had been kicking around the idea of a Yubikey for a while, but I'm pretty glad I waited now. BlurPort looks like a way better option for me.

The fast-charging device is a so-called supercapacitor, a gizmo that can pack a lot of energy into a tiny space, charges quickly and holds its charge for a long time.

What's more, it can last for 10,000 charge-recharge cycles, compared with 1,000 cycles for conventional rechargeable batteries, according to Eesha Khare of Saratoga, Calif.

"My cellphone battery always dies," she told NBC News when asked what inspired her to work on the energy-storage technology. Supercapacitors also allowed her to focus on her interest in nanochemistry — "really working at the nanoscale to make significant advances in many different fields."

To date, she has used the supercapacitor to power a light-emitting diode, or LED. The invention's future is evenb... more »

“Every person needs to take one day away. A day in which one consciously separates the past from the future. Jobs, family, employers, and friends can exist one day without any one of us, and if our egos permit us to confess, they could exist eternally in our absence. Each person deserves a day away in which no problems are confronted, no solutions searched for. Each of us needs to withdraw from the cares which will not withdraw from us.”

This is incredible. Scientists have created synthetic DNA, called XNA, which uses the same building blocks. The most amazing part is that XNA can replicate and transfer information just like DNA!

Last week, for the first time, the federal government released the list of prices (http://goo.gl/tWE8N) that more than 3,000 hospitals (http://goo.gl/8I7MN) across the country charged for 100 common procedures in 2011, plus the actual amount Medicare paid, which is a rough proxy for what those procedures cost an efficient hospital to perform. This is a major step forward for medical price transparency, which is crucial to holding prices down.
