The Unemployment Game Show: Are You *Really* Unemployed?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gramm%E2%80%93Leach%E2%80%93Bliley_Act
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), also known as the Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999, (Pub.L. 106-102, 113 Stat. 1338, enacted November 12, 1999) is an act of the 106th United States Congress (1999-2001) which repealed part of the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933, opening up the market among banking companies, securities companies and insurance companies. The Glass-Steagall Act prohibited any one institution from acting as any combination of an investment bank, a commercial bank, and/or an insurance company.

^Happened under Clinton. Democrats, Republicans, it doesn't really matter, they are all corrupted by lobbyists, campaign contributions or even bribes.

TED: Finding the supermassive blackhole in our galaxy
They didn't have the resolution of the schwarzschild radius, but that's not exactly necessary to make a super massive black hole likely. Because they do know that within the relatively small radius they do see there is a mass of millions of stars, and you would expect these to shine quite brightly or show other signs of being there. For example very massive stars have extreme solar winds which could be visible on these scales.

Make a Bottle Invisible with Science!
Explanation: Glass and glycerin have similar refractive indices. So when light moves from the glycerin through the glass it isn't bent differently, which is the way we normally see transparent glass in water.

Climate Change - Those Hacked E-mails
>> ^Winstonfield_Pennypacker:
I'm a statistician. I see this kind of crap every day, and it gives my profession a bad name. I've seen some of the AGW numbers. The original data is never in the dataset.


As a statistician you might be interested in this article

"In a blind test, the AP gave temperature data to four independent statisticians and asked them to look for trends, without telling them what the numbers represented. The experts found no true temperature declines over time."

Amazing and Unbeliavably Realistic Projections on Buildings
>> ^eric3579:
Reading the comments here, it does seem to have been a "simulation". You can view a live performance here.

The real live performance is still quite spectacular.
Must be quite a lot of work to make a 3D scan or model of the building and then tailor a lot of effects to that structure. Would seem like awesome work for a 3D modeler though.

A master bladesmith makes beautiful knives
Amazing how the mechanical properties of basic metals can transform when fused, stretched and hammered like this.

Rotating Kitchen Art Piece
Interesting, I wouldn't have mind to see a few more rotations. After a few rotations I think most stuff would have fallen out of the side. Would be nice if there was a webcam on this installation. Also a camera inside the kitchen would be awesome.

Could you please invoke?

In reply to this comment by gwiz665:
Yeah, it's a dupe of http://www.videosift.com/video/Stunning-Shuttle-Ascent-Video-Compilation, I'd say, since its the same video but with out the long (and pointless) intro.
