Pretty light show thanks to radiation.

We’ve Angered the Sun God!

No Gravatar

After being pretty quite during one of the longest solar minimums on record, early on Sunday the sun decided to unleash its pent up fury in a huge eruption of plasma and radiation. That also just so happens to be heading toward the Earth. But no need to worry, or go running for cover. The Earths magnetic field will shield our squishy selves from death and turn it into a pretty light show for the people up north. More >

Cedric noted the warmness of the trash fire burning in the barrel in front of him. He moved to get his hands near without the flames touching, just hovering them over absorbing the heat into his cold hands. It was a particularly cold night tonight, the sky black with clouds. More >

Just Because its Natural Doesn’t Mean it Won’t Kill You!

My opinion of natural health supplements has always been that they might actually help and are natural so if they don’t they’re probably harmless. The most harm I could imagine them doing was for people to delay treatment taking useless stuff and having their condition get much worse. You know kind of like the nutters that have cancer, but instead of going to the doctor they try homeopathy, weird berries, and or praying. Then they die from something that probably could have been treated. You’re never going to get away from that kind of stupid even if they didn’t have health supplement stores people would just wonder into the woods to munch on mandrake root to cure their cancer or whatever.

When Jenny McCarthy set out on her foolish and unholy crusade to stop people from vaccinating they’re kids most people could understand where she was coming from. After all her son was diagnosed with autism shortly after he got his vaccines. More >

Homeopathy Loses Funding in the UK’s National Health System.

For those of you that don’t know what Homeopathy is let me enlighten you. Homeopathy is when you take medicine and dilute it so much that the medicine is no longer present but the remaining water “remembers” the medicine was there and can heal people. Ok ok stop laughing some people will believe anything.

Personnel Heads Up Displays When?

No Gravatar

Unlike most things you see in Sci-Fi movies one intriguing and very useful piece of tech might be closer than I previously thought. No I’m not talking about flying cars or killer robots. I’m talking about a personal heads up display.  Something you wear as a pair of glasses or contacts that can display things like a GPS map or text messages. The University of Washington has made several contact lens style HUD’s that they’ve been testing and will hopefully develop into something that can be commercially made.
