It employs a cellular automaton type logic I’ve devised to produce sound events. Each alive cell has 4 states: Up, right, down, left. at each cycle, the cells move themselves in the direction of their internal states.

This set of rules produces chaotic results in some settings, therefore you can end up with never repeating, gradually evolving sequences.

Eight great gadgets for college dorms | Latest gadgets from the Gadget Guy | tampabay.com & the St. Petersburg Times. It's almost time for college students to begin fall classes, so I thought it would be good to compile a list of gadgets for college dorms and apartments.

The obvious ones, like smartphones, laptops, iPads and calculators aren't listed here because I went for the fun and unique gadgets instead. Take a look and let me know if you've found something cool that should be included. (Scroll to the bottom to see a video that demonstrates the gadgets.) 1.

The enormous room on the ground floor faced towards the north. Cold for all the summer beyond the panes, for all the tropical heat of the room itself, a harsh thin light glared through the windows, hungrily seeking some draped lay figure, some pallid shape of academic goose-flesh, but finding only the glass and nickel and bleakly shining porcelain of a laboratory.

Get Ready for Guests in 30 Minutes or Less. Many of us have experienced an embarrassing moment when a visitor dropped by with little warning, but my friend's story tops them all. She was spending a lazy Sunday at home in New York City, when a friend called to say she'd be stopping by shortly with one of the town's most prestigious interior decorators. My friend thought the right amount of notice for such a visit would have been about 12 months (by then she could have had the place completely renovated), but instead she had about 30 minutes to whip her home into shape. Apparently she pulled it off well enough—she never got a visit from the housekeeping police—but she asked what I'd have done in similar circumstances. I'd have done the following, and gone as far down the list as possible until the doorbell rang. 1.

Top 10 Best Ghost Photographs. While trying to decide which ghost photos are the “best” is largely an exercise in subjectivity, it’s difficult to know which ones are the best with any degree of objectivity. These are the photos I consider the most authentic “captures” of ghosts ever caught on film, but I leave it to you to decide for yourself how real they may be. Of course, I realize that almost any photo can be hoaxed, but many of these were taken many years or even decades before digital cameras and the advent of Photoshop and other photo manipulation software came on the scene, making them somewhat more difficult to fake than it would be today. 10.

Rocksmith | Ubisoft | Home. Rolling Bridge ? Heatherwick Studio. London, UK The studio was commissioned to design a pedestrian bridge to span an inlet of the Grand Union Canal at Paddington Basin, London, and provide an access route for workers and residents.

Crucially, the bridge needed to open to allow access for the boat moored in the inlet. The aim was to make the movement the extraordinary aspect of the bridge. A common approach to designing opening bridges is to have a single rigid element that fractures and lifts out of the way. The structure opens using a series of hydraulic rams integrated into the balustrade. The whole structure was constructed at Littlehampton Welding on the Sussex coast and then floated up the Grand Union Canal, before being lifted into position and attached to the hydraulic system which powers its movement.

The Rolling Bridge won a number of awards including a Structural Steel Award, and an Emerging Architecture Award. Go to images. How to Build the CMoy Pocket Amplifier. *rana june ?

If you’re one of those people who likes to ponder things while looking out a frosty window on a cold winter day, these pictures will clear up one of those long standing wonders: each snowflake really IS unique.

Some look like roman columns, others circuit boards or spaceships. Taken under high magnification using a microscope, these images bring a fragile and beautiful world into view. See Also HARMFUL VIRUSES MADE OF BEAUTIFUL GLASS They say that every snowflake is different. If that were true, how could the world go on? How could we ever get up off our knees? How could we ever recover from the wonder of it?

Beaver | Omegle Conversations. Looking for someone you can chat with. Hang on. You’re now chatting with a random stranger. Say hi! A word of advice: “asl” is boring. You: You see a beaver in the distance lumbering towards you, a menacing glare on its face. Stranger: Give me a moment, Sir or Ma’am. Stranger: This is a pondersom question! You: The beaver is getting closer with each passing second, but luckily it appears to have a broken foot You: This slows it down somewhat Stranger: First!

Stranger: Then I proceed to throw the lace-less shoes at the beaver, one by one, to distract it Stranger: Next, I use the laces and duct tape to attach the balloon to my head. You: The beavier is angrier and more determined to attack Stranger: As it is a good sized balloon with helium, the loss of weight of the extra shoes lifts me off of the ground. You: The beaver jump at your rising figure, snapping at your toes, but luckily you are high enough to avoid its rabid attack Stranger: I use the nail clippers to snip the balloon string.

SHEET MUSIC. It's All About Perspective. Hendrix portrait with 5000 guitar picks. Hack Apart a Highlighter to Create UV-Reactive Flowers [Science] - How-To Geek ETC. College students have long been hacking apart highlighters to create glowing bottles of booze to line their dorm room walls. Far more interesting, however, is the application of the hack to flowers. Many of you may remember a science class experiment from years gone by where in you put food coloring in a beaker and then some freshly cut white flowers; returning to the experiment a day later yielded flowers colored to match the dye you added.

This little experiment relies on the same technique, only instead of blue food coloring the flowers suck up UV-reactive highlighter dye.

Simply start by clicking on the Play button on the left. Reading is that one activity that we do every day but we don't really practice. Most people learn the basics of reading in kindergarten and never graduate to the next levels. You are probably using the same basic rudimental tools and techniques that you learned when you were 6. The average American person reads at an average speed of 180 to 240 words per minute and has done so since he was 16 years old. Does it make sense that we hit our best performance at age 16 and that we don't improve much after that?

Keep in mind less than 10% read at 400 words per minute and less than 1% faster than 600. Have you ever wished you could take one of those costly speed reading courses? The problem with those courses is that you have to keep practicing those techniques until they become second nature. That's the goal of this site. We are here to keep you focused and to help you improve your speed reading everyday. What is sub-vocalization?

Rube Goldberg Machine Breaks Cadbury Cream Egg - CollegeHumor video. Smack Nightclub - LED Room. Codefetch{ Beginning Game Development: Part I – Introduction | Coding4Fun Articles. Part I – Introduction Welcome to the first article of an introductory series on game programming using the Microsoft .NET Framework and managed DirectX 9.0. This series as aimed at beginning programmers who are interested in developing a game for their own use with the .NET Framework and DirectX. The goal of this series is to have fun creating a game and learn game development and DirectX along the way. Game programming and DirectX have their own terms and definitions that can be difficult to understand, but after awhile, you’ll crack the code and be able to explore a new world of possibilities.

I will keep things as straightforward as possible and decode terms as they appear. Another part of the learning curve comes from the math you’ll need to deal with DirectX. In this series, we are going to build a simple game to illustrate the various components of a commercial game. Tools: Before we start writing our first game we need to talk about the tools we will use. Our Game idea: Visual C# Genius Test 3. HR Interviews. Double-Sided Design Solves Painfully Universal USB Problem. Sometimes something begs for a simple solution. The nearly-ubiquitous USB port is perhaps the technological poster child for an obvious failure to work both ways (right-side-up or upside-down) despite looking perfectly symmetrical on both sides.

Thankfully, and finally, this has been tackled from two directions (appropriately enough): one more idealistic, one more realistic, but both ingenious. Ma Yi Xuan is a student designer who has solved the problem in theory, and in reality by UltraTek‘s new Flipper. These answers have been a long time coming. This author, for example, has bend more than one USB plug (and port), though fortunately only destroyed one to date. In the student version, there is a piece on either side of the interior that slides out of the way to reveal a data connection – which half moves depends on what way the plug is placed into the accepting slot. Simple, but vital for making this work both ways. The Antikythera Mechanism in Lego. CrimethInc. Ex-Workers’ Collective : Home. Brief Answers to Cosmic Questions. Learn to draw.
