Headline Tag: Terminator Rating: Ok Hits: 259 Comments: 0 'Terminator' Arm is world's Most Advanced Prosthetic Limb 'Terminator' Arm is world's Most Advanced Prosthetic Limb More info about this amazing prosthetic can be found here http://bebionic.com A father who lost his arm in an accident six years ago has been given a new lease of life by a hi-tech bionic hand which is so precise he can type again. Nigel Ackland, 53, has been fitted with the Terminator-like carbon fibre mechanical hand which he can control with movements in his upper arm. The new bebionic3 myoelectric hand, which is also made from aluminium and alloy knuckles, moves like a real human limb by responding to Nigel's muscle twitches. Incredibly, the robotic arm is so sensitive it means the father-of-one can touch type on a computer keyboard, peel vegetables, and even dress himself for the first time in six years.

But you don't have to, because Colin Legg took this awesome time-lapse video of the sunrise annular solar eclipse over Pilbara in Western Australia last Friday. Cameras were recording from three different locations. Undoubtedly the strangest sunrise ever seen. User: spam_vigilante May 16, 2013 5:26 PM

Headline Tag: Big Business Rating: Amazing Hits: 1149 Comments: 2 David Foster Wallace: This is Water, Commencement Speech David Foster Wallace: This is Water, Commencement Speech In 2005, author David Foster Wallace was asked to give the commencement address to the 2005 graduating class of Kenyon College. However, the resulting speech didn't become widely known until 3 years later, after his tragic death. It is, without a doubt, some of the best life advice we've ever come across, and perhaps the most simple and elegant explanation of the real value of education. We made this video, built around an abridged version of the original audio recording, with the hopes that the core message of the speech could reach a wider audience who might not have otherwise been interested. However, we encourage everyone to seek out the full speech (because, in this case, the book is definitely better than the movie). May 14, 2013 8:11 PM

Headline Tag: Animals Rating: Good Hits: 634 Comments: 0 THE CICADAS ARE COMING! THE CICADAS ARE COMING! Cicadas have developed an amazing strategy for growth, survival, reproduction, and overcoming predation by...doing nothing. They do nothing for years (except sip at the juice excreted from root structures) before emerging in huge, simultaneous swarms. The swarm is so huge that predators can't consume even a fraction of it, but so rare that predator populations can't sustain themselves between emergence events. Clever little things!

Headline Tag: Automobile Rating: Good Hits: 654 Comments: 1 Corvettes From North Carolina Collector Corvettes From North Carolina Collector The first Corvette Bill Mullis bought many years ago, was black. He liked the way it looked and soon realized that in some cases, black Corvettes were few and far between. So, he accepted a personal challenge: Acquire as many black Corvettes covering the formative years of the brand, as possible. Regrettably, the heart of the collection, 23 Corvettes from 1954 through 1969, was sold off during a Mecum Auction at Bloomington Gold in June of 2011. User: spam_vigilante May 13, 2013 4:11 PM
