Sword-billed Hummingbird
The Sword-billed Hummingbird is the only bird in the world which has a bill that is actually longer than its body. As such it is unable to preen itself and has to use its feet. This is universally acknowledged as one of nature’s stranger, funnier sights. The length of its bill is so it can feed on plants with long corollas. As you might expect its tongue is also unusually long.
Nissan Nuvu EV
Electric vehicles are the future. There’s no denying it. But if this is what the future is gonna look like, I want no part of it…
Project Orion
AKA the worst rocket idea EVAR.
Project Orion was a NASA “Nucular” rocket propulsion system from the 1950s. Except that nuclear powered, in this instance means nuclear BOMB powered.
The Orion rocket was essentially a nuclear pulse rocket designed to use a series of controlled/directed nuclear detonations for propulsion.
Nuclear reactions are some of the most energetic for any given mass of fuel, and could technically be an ideal energy source for high endurance, long range, space flight applications.
However, used in this fashion, it comes at the cost of some rather horrific radiation related side effects. The movie on the sauce page, give a little humorous insight about the problems, crew member radiation levels, eyeburn etc…
And that doesn’t even cover the environmental effects that a number of sequential, high yield nuclear explosions might occur at ground level after the fact… *shiver* But I suppose it would be better than the entire planet getting destroyed…

Plant Bot
If a plant had legs and could move around, it would probably do what this thing does…

Waianapanapa Sands – Maui
I thought this pic in particular showed me a beach where I want to be at this very moment.
GTA SA snapshots
Since the max file size for uploads is 1mb, I couldn’t send the good ones, which are 6mb~they consist of an entire map compliled of aerial shots of San Andreas, along with ones taken directly from the game.
Its all there
–alcohol………..Check
–McCain stickers…Check
–gas sucking car…Check
All he needs now is a sticker of Obama with a turban and a “Raped: Tough Shit” sticker and hes the quintessential douche bag.
And all those G Tech stickers aren’t winning him any points parked in Clemson on game day either.
What kind of fruit tree is this?
I know you can graft fruit bearing trees and get lemons and limes growing on the same tree, but this seems excessive, though cool.
Sorry but this was the only size: www.flickr.com/photos/19895520@N08/2950734462
Haeckel: Arachnida
66th plate from Kunstformen der Natur by Ernst Haeckel.
This is what you get when you’re a naturalist/biologist and can draw. It’s magnificent. You can find a brief description and wallpaper size here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Haeckel_Arachnida.jpg

Groovy Sun
From DRB:
“This is a composite image from three wavelengths (171Ã , 195Ã and 284Ã ) – revealing solar features unique to each wavelength. (corresponding to temperatures from 1 to 10 million degrees C).”
IE Our sun on some really psychedelic stuff…

My tattoo. The kanji means determination. And 5 internets to whoever can guess which band is on my shirt.
Brudelli Leanster
Another Crazy Trike with a name that sounds like that of a college frat buddy. I’m also beginning to wonder what’s with the recent rash of trike and quad designs…

Octocube
An extremely efficient fractal based radiator design inspired by the Peano space filling curve. While the design is probably very efficient in terms of transferring heat to the surrounding air via conduction, compared to traditional radiator designs, I get the feeling it may not be quite as effective at providing radiant heat, as the vast majority of it’s surface area is obscured by it’s own convolutions…

Most of my snacks from my freshman year. I kept all the chips in the next drawer. Having a high metabolism is GREAT.
