Emergency Shut Off?


Banana Wall

Stefan Sagmeister’s works are on display at Deitch in NYC, January 31, 2008 — February 23, 2008 @ 76 Grand Street, New York.
The bananas you see here are real, all 7,200 of them on a giant wall - it smelled like 7,200 bananas too, slightly rotting.

250 Pounds of Silly Putty

Google Associate Product Manager Clay Bavor was “curious to see what 250 pounds of Silly Putty would look like”.
The problem was that once together, Silly Putty doesn’t like to come apart, and none of us had any idea of how to deal with this effect. We tried everything: very strong people (didn’t work), scissors (stabbing worked, slicing didn’t), 28-gauge steel wire (broke), 22-gauge steel wire (broke), 16-gauge steel wire (too thick), and twisting and breaking (worked well for “smaller” pieces — under five pounds that is.)

That’s me alright I am to a point I can't hardly turn around in what I call my computer room. However there is an old fashion name for this "Pack Rat" you don't throw anything away because when you do you will need it. By the way this also applies to my computer.

New bride dies in her love's arms during their first dance

Kim Sjostrom wanted a real-life version of the film "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," which played in the background as friends fixed her hair and makeup before her own marriage ceremony.
But less than an hour after she and Teddy Efkarpides were wed, Sjostrom crumpled in her husband's arms during a Greek song that means "Love Me."At 36, Sjostrom was dead from heart disease.
Sjostrom carried blue and white flowers during the ceremony — the colors of the Greek flag — as she exchanged vows with Efkarpides, a 43-year-old carpenter and Navy veteran. They had met three years to the day before the Jan. 19 wedding.
During the couple's first dance, Sjostrom complained of being lightheaded. Efkarpides thought his wife, a diabetic, needed sugar, but she collapsed. Wedding guests, paramedics and doctors at a nearby hospital were unable to revive her.
