The FLIZ: a pedal-less bike concept based on the 19th century Dandy Horse.

The rider propels the bike by running, then hanging from a harness having gathered speed.

Ooh.

Car On Fire (2013).

Directed By KomandantLuskene who sez:

A parked car went on fire [Ashbourne, Co Meath], then seconds after the fire brigade arrived the handbrake finally went, and it rolls down the road nearly hitting a Garda car and the bus I was on. Fair play to the firemen running in front of it to stop it, I could feel the heat from inside the bus.

(Thanks Andy Saul)

Pants.

On fire.

But that’s not all. He [Paul Ryan, Republican Vice Presidential candidate] attacked Obama for failing to keep open a Janesville GM plant that closed under Bush in 2008. He hit him for a credit-rating downgrade that S&P essentially blamed on GOP intransigence. He claimed that all taxpayers got from the 2009 stimulus was “more debt,” when most got a tax cut (and the stimulus is known to have saved between 1.4 and 3.3 million jobs). He derided the president for walking away from the Simpson Bowles commission deficit-cutting recommendations when Ryan himself, a commission member, voted against those recommendations.

…Other than that, it was a great speech.

Trippy.

By Grace McEvoy who sez:

I think things that give us a sense of unreality lends us to question that which is around us. Our fascination with the potential in technology and its unexplained power drives our desire to envision the future. Arthur C. Clarke’s famous words seem relevant when he says: “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic”.
