GLOBAL WARMING

Remember back in April, when there was the whole huge thing about Earth Hour? Basically it was a set time in the evening one night that would try and get everyone in the whole world to turn off anything running on electricity for one hour, in hopes of conserving energy and preventing global warming, by causing awareness.


Well, sometime after that, in Ryerson's parody newspaper, "The Eyeopener," there was this article about Africa. It's so wrong, but at the same time very humorous.

"I'D RATHER BE DEAD!!" - HIGHSTRUNG, 1991

If you know me, you'd know I praise this one movie, Highstrung, which was never a widely known movie, and incredibly difficult to locate and get a copy. I had one, but somehow lost it lending it to a friend. Anyway, its basically about a man, Thane Furrows, who is in his apartment all day complaining about life. It's humorous as the main character is played by Steve Odekerk, who is a comedian, actor and writer, for movies such as The Nutty Professor, Ace Ventura, and Bruce Almighty. Anyways, its an extremely funny film for the time period it was in, and though not many people I know that have seen it have given it good ratings, they just probably don't have a sense of humor.


Enjoy this video of a few clips from the movie.

ROCK STEADY


It's pretty evident that USB's and other external hard drives are becoming the most common types of media and/or file storage. And although i've seen a couple interesting USB design concepts, more recently, a wooden laundry clip (interestingly enough, still fully functional as one...would be a pain to misplace don't you think?). This concept comes in form of a 4 gb mass media storage, designed to look and feel as a rock. Yes a rock. Just make sure you don't keep this thing lying around, in case someone decides to try break a window with it?


Look on the bright side, at least no one will be itching to steal it from you...

LIGHT BRIGHT


Not a bad idea, especially for designers and artists using big open spaces for their projects... The “Turn I” and “Split I” light by Joel Hesselgren.

The piece is called, "Muto" by graf artist Blu.


Check it out, it's absolutely amazing.

SWITCHBLADE SCOOTER


I'm not sure how they plan to make this work...cause it almost seems unreal. Automotive manufacturer BMW is creating a prototype folding scooter, that folds to the size of a beer bottle, and unfolds similar to an umbrella, and snaps out. Love to see this in action.

THE BOLDEST


The newest edition to the RIM family of Blackberry's, the Blackberry "Bold"/9000. Looking sleek as ever...

CAUGHT RED HANDED


18 officers beat up on 3 shooting suspects in Philly.....caught on tape. Now there's some evidence to all those people who are naive enough to believe the police are innocent of vicious brutality.

INFLATION FOR REAL


The picture above might recall some memories in....2003; when gas prices kinda averaged that...


If you drive, you already know the pain and suffering the increased gas prices are causing everyone. Right now the price is sitting on average about $1.18/litre and fluctuating around ±$0.02 cents every day. It's estimated at the current pace, it will reach $1.50 by the summer.


However, if you were one of the luckier people who got up early and watch breakfast television, you would have known that they sponsored an event at Canadian Tire in Mississauga, at the corner of Mavis and Britannia, where for a few hours until 9am, they were selling gas for half price. Yes, the lucky ones who got to fill up at $0.68/litre were probably filled with joy, as the wait time was probably close to an hour.


Traffic was madness, and backed up anywhere within a 4 km radius of the area.
