  1. taken from grand illusions dot com Dr Angry and Mr Calm Do you remember the story of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde? Dr Jekyll, the famous scientist, is not all he seems, and the other side of his character - Mr Hyde - is, you will recall, a distinctly nasty piece of work. Continuing the idea of the two sides of the human character, have a look at the picture above. On the left is Dr Angry, and on the right is Mr Calm. Now, back away from your computer screen. This effect will work at different distances for different people, but you should see the two characters swap over...! As you come closer to the screen again, they revert to their original characters. Spooky or what! As optical illusions go, we think this is pretty impressive. A short explanation goes something like this. When we look at an object, we can normally see both fine detail and coarse detail. However when we are close, the fine detail will dominate, and when we are further away, we lose the fine detail, and see more of the coarse detail. Both of the faces you see above are hybrids - each face is actually a combination of two faces. The left hand face shows an angry man in fine detail, but within the picture there is also coarse detail of the calm face. Move away, and you lose the fine (angry) detail, and just see the coarse (calm) detail. The right hand face shows the calm face in fine detail, and the angry face in coarse detail. This is based on work by Dr Aude Oliva (MIT) and Dr Philippe Schyns (University of Glasgow). You can read the original paper here.

  5. Your talking about "The Graffiti Artist". I watched it one night around 4:00am when I couldn't sleep. It is a pretty slow movie.
  6. Yeah, he yells his mother's name, but what is his mother's name?!?
  7. Someone please answer this for me: At the end of the movie when the Empress is telling Bastion to give her a new name he runs up to the window, opens it and screams out a name (while getting rained on etc.) WHAT THE FUCK DOES HE YELL OUT? I watched the movie with captions and all it said was "yelling!"

  9. Over the past 2 years or so I have noticed a lot of people wearing these sandals. A couple people I play soccer with wear them and swear the are the best shoes they have ever had. They look pretty ugly - but who knows, they could be all that. Do any of you freaks own a pair? If so - whats the hype? http://www.thecrocsstore.com/

  11. At my previous home my backyard went right up to a highway way and I would hear that kind of thing all the time. This house was also about 100 yards away from the train tracks so when I laid in bed at night I would always hear the weird noises a semi makes, motorcycle races, etc and then the trains off and on. I kinda miss it.
  12. Opera was doing tabbed browsing was before Firefox. Did you all even watch the movies? The audio is from Bill Gates describing new features in Windows Vista - taken from the CES conference earlier this week. Some mac guy made a video with all the same feature that already exsist in tiger.
  13. This is meant to be humorous so please don't start some big opinionated OS debate. Taken from MacLive.net Windows Vista: First of a Kind Features? Earlier this week, Bill Gates gave the Keynote Address at CES. In an effort to gear people up for the gadget wizardry they were about to experience on the show floor, Bill touted the revolutionary new features of the upcoming Windows Vista. Baring any further setbacks, Vista is scheduled to be released near the end of 2006. Any Mac users who watched the Keynote were likely unimpressed. This must have been the case with the user who created the following video. Is Vista unique in all of its first of a kind features? You decide. WATCH EPISODE ONE Windows Vista: A Revolution in Information Access? Here's another video to help put Bill Gates and the gang at Microsoft back where they belong. Windows Vista has been designed from the ground up to make information more accessible. It has been designed around the concept of parental control. Windows Vista has been delayed time after time. Now we know where the software engineers have been spending their time. They are trying to put the finishing touches on these revolutionary concepts in personal computing. I am counting down the days until Vista ships... sometime near the end of 2006. How will we pass the time? WATCH EPISODE TWO
  14. Played out - but still a classic Russian football hooligans I love this one Dumb white girls fighting - watch for the girl who gets stabbed in the leg There are SO MANY fight clips on http://www.youtube.com but you got to search for them
  15. People spend money on dumb shit because they can. I find bearbricks, kubricks, qees etc aestheticlly pleasing - especially when there is a good artist designing them. I just couldn't keep up and wanted to spend my money on other things - like a new mac and shoes. If anything the trend is getting more popular - esp. in our little graffiti sub culture with all the dalek, kaws, ewok, haze, jest, etc. <!--QuoteBegin-sect ebc@Jan 7 2006, 10:05 AM fliks of the kaws
  16. It's true - it was made with the help and assistance of the Special Oylmpics. Here's an article about the premiere
  17. Also - the Bearbrick series 8 and Aesthetic Apparatus Poopdog auctions are over. Te lot auction ends in 11 hours - as of 11:03 am, 01/02/06
  18. Bearbricks are blind assortment. When you purchase blind assortment figures they come packaged in identical boxes. The boxes are the same in every way and you can not see what is inside! On the side of the boxes will be a list of different possible figures. One of these figures awaits inside the box. The chances of you getting particular figures are listed as percentage rates. The percentages are based on a box of 24 figures. As you can see, you have a better chance of getting the BASIC figure as opposed to the ARTIST figure. You sometimes have a chance of getting one of more than 12 different figures. When you open the boxes the figure will be wrapped in foil. At this point you STILL cannot tell which figure you got! Foil is used to wrap the figure so people dont open the box and peek inside! It is also used so people don't scan the boxes under X-ray machines. (Believe it or not, it DOES happen!) If by chance you get a figure that is not listed on the side of the box, Congratulations! You have found a rare 'chase' figure! Some of these figures are so rare and limited that people pay BIG $$ for them (We're talking hundreds here!). <!--QuoteBegin-merk or be merked@Dec 30 2005, 04:24 PM do you have any of the kaws bus stop sets?

    RACKING TODAY

    I thought for a second that someone started a magazine called "Racking Today"
  20. No promotion here, but I got a 14% raise - holla!
  21. It depends on how rare they are. The bearbricks you can buy indiviually for like $6-$8 but if you get one of the super rare ones you can sell it on eBay for like $100-$200.
