A Gun Rack?

Payback says...

He breaks up with Lara Flynn Boyle, and almost loses Tia Carrere to Rob Lowe. Rob Lowe people! Didn't he get caught doing some 16 year old and her mother in a video?

Oh wait, that was Gabriel Byrne in End of Days. My bad.

Cop Slams Special Needs Student To The Ground For Dress Code

A Canadian, Willard S. Boyle, was yesterday awarded a share of the 2009 Nobel prize in Physics for his part in the invention of the CCD image sensor. I heard him yesterday talking about the significance of his invention, saying its most important use was the fact that those "in authority" have to know that their every action can now be captured and recorded. i couldn't agree more- the more abuses of power like this one are exposed, the the more freedom we will all enjoy.

Sixty Symbols: Find out how the Drinking Bird works.

Esoog says...

When I was in the 10th grade (1989), I was in a high school science class, and the professor had a drinking bird. He offered some form of extra credit if we could explain how it worked. I quickly went out and bought my own drinking bird, studied it, and had no freaking clue. So I pulled out some encyclopedias (remember those? yes kids, we used to have books of information), did some reading at the library, and 3 months later figured it had to have something to do with Boyle's Law.

I proposed my weakly formed solution completely missing out on the thermodynamics part, and never did get that extra credit.

If only I had google: Heat will not naturally flow from a body of lower temperature to one of higher. It will however, flow in the other direction. So what does all this have to do with our classic drinking bird? The answer: plenty. Couple this law of thermodynamics with Boyle’s law stating the inversely proportional relationship of temperature and pressure relating to volume and you can begin to understand how this magical little bird can seemingly bob up and down forever.
