Celebrate April Fools' Day with These Harmless Geek Pranks My favorite April Fool's prank is one I pulled just 3 months after being hired as the first-ever IT person at a company with 25 people. Essentially, I set up all computers to play "Peanut Butter Jelly Time" by the Buckwheat Boys every time a new e-mail arrived. People were freaking out — they thought they were going crazy! Best part was, many of them were too embarrassed that they might have done something to mess up their computer that they didn't tell me! They just dealt with it all day long…priceless! Here's how I did it: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. As each person reported the problem to me, I ran another script to restore their original notification sound. ~Jason @JasonJames122

R U Smarter than an 8th Grader? from Joe Burton What it took to get an 8th grade education in 1895... Remember when grandparents and great-grandparents stated that they only had an 8th grade education? Well, check this out. Could any of us have passed the 8th grade in 1895? This is the eighth-grade final exam from 1895 in Salina, Kansas, USA. 8th Grade Final Exam: Salina, KS - 1895 Grammar (Time, one hour)1. Arithmetic (Time,1 hour 15 minutes)1. U.S. Orthography (Time, one hour) [Do we even know what this is??] Geography (Time, one hour)1 What is climate? Notice that the exam took FIVE HOURS to complete. Gives the saying 'he only had an 8th grade education' a whole new meaning, doesn't it?!
How to Win at Rock, Paper, Scissors LiveScience By: Natalie Wolchover, LiveScience.com In the game Rock, Paper, Scissors, two opponents randomly toss out hand gestures, and each one wins, loses or draws with equal probability. It's supposed to be a game of pure luck, not skill — and indeed, if humans were able to be perfectly random, no one could gain an upper hand over anyone else. There's one problem with that reasoning: Humans are terrible at being random. Our pathetic attempts to appear uncalculating are, in fact, highly predictable. According to Graham Walker, veteran player and five time organizer of the Rock, Paper Scissors World Championships, there are two paths to victory in RPS: Eliminating one of your opponent's options — for example, influencing her not to play Paper — and forcing her to make a predictable move. Rookies rock Those two overarching strategies can be translated into executable moves, starting with the opening one. "Rock is for rookies" should be kept in mind against more experienced players, too.
TATTOOS Abandoned Six Flags New Orleans Hurricane Katrina killed this clown. According to the photographer, “An abandoned Six Flags amusement park, someone spray painted ‘Six Flags 2012 coming soon’ on the wall above the downed head. But they were clownin.’ Welcome to Zombie Land kids! Chained dreams of fun at Six Flags New Orleans, abandoned Jazzland – that’s what Six Flags opened as “Jazzland” in 2000. Some photographers can see past the lifeless amusement park’s decay and desolation, showing us that there is still a chance the place could be cheery and not cheerless. Like a Bad Dream. Just in case you don’t know the scoop on what Hurricane Katrina did to New Orleans and Six Flags, this photo is of New Orleans, LA, on Sept. 14, 2005. Unlike the bleak amusement-less park above, some photographers can still see and share with us the echo of magic in the abandoned theme park Six Flags – even 6 years later in 2011. Once upon a time, Six Flags was filled with children’s laughter – but now it’s sad, silent, and surreal.
Stunning Self-Portraits Like Valerie Chiang or Kalie Garrett, Alex Stoddard is one of those talented teenage photographers who knows how to express themselves. His self-portraits are all incredibly unique and after viewing them you're left wondering where he's going to take you next. What I enjoy most is that you can almost feel his passion come through. His commitment to not only executing on an idea but doing it well, is apparent to anyone who sees his photos. I got in touch with Alex to ask him a few questions, including how his style evolved while taking on the 365 project. What have you learned from your 365 project? Your photos are all beautifully artistic. I see that you're friends with Rosie Hardy. How has Flickr helped you develop your style? Are there any quotes you live by? Thanks for the interview, Alex. Check out more of Alex's incredible photos on his Flickr page.
