The Real Mideast War
Ninja Tuesday III: Revenge of Monday
This film was created for the 2006 Filmerica Challenge.
We were given a genre (action/adventure), a prop (hammer), a character (Morgan Becker, unemployed), a line of dialog (“Things are not always what they seem.”), and 72 hours to make a short film …So naturally, we made a ninja movie.
Gangs + swords
Apparently Scottish gangs are now doin battle Braveheart style.
Personally, I think it would be better if all gang members carried swords instead of guns, it would make the brawls so much more interesting.
MS opens up Xbox development to the masses
Microsoft is looking to create a “YouTube for games” by distributing a
light version of its XNA development platform for free. Anyone with
some skill and desire will soon be able to create games that will run
on both Windows and Xbox.
This could be huge.

BODIES: The Exhibition
I while back I saw the Bodies exhibition, and man, was I blown away! I had examined cadavers once before while at college, but this was a far better experience.
The bodies are expertly dissected and preserved, and coupled with loads of relevant information and interesting facts. Most importantly, they didn’t stink. (All water is chemically replaced with a polymer that essentially makes the specimens rubber while completely preserving them.)
The result is an absolutely amazing show that is both beautiful and informative. (Just wait until you see the circulatory system room: incredible!)
If you have any interest whatsoever in learning about this amazing and beautiful machine that we all posess, be sure to go and check out the Bodies Exhibition.

Ready for a great time-suck? Check this game out. The page is in German, or some other language that I do not know, but that’s ok because the game is intuitive enough to figure out pretty quickly. After a few levels, it gets pretty hard, but remains engaging enough that you’ll continue playing despite your frustration… Ok then, just click the link and check it out already!
