Cat On Boat Plays With Dolphins - Slothster Comment by paulsoul100 great and wonderful, but like many, my concern is for the dolphin, they are free beings, with there own development in progress. they must not be used for our desires and will.. let them evolve in there own time in there own way. and let us not rape the oceans for our collective greed. Comment by d4dolphin Beautiful video to watch....showing people the gentleness of dolphins. Only sick or injured dolphins should be in captivity. thank you dolphinlover for your comments. Comment by cat_lover I don't think it is "fish breath" that is the attraction. Comment by dolphinlover I dont believe in keeping animals in captivity either but most dolphins or wild life that is in captivity is because they were hurt at one time. Comment by SkiBum4ever Both are mammals, The genetic engineers are attempting to cross breed the cat with the dolphins at this very moment. so look for the Furry dolphin or the very smooth cat at a pet shop near you.

Genius School by Nina Leen 1948 | LIFE Inside a ‘Genius School,’ 1948 The phrase “genius school” has been tossed around quite a bit over the past year or so, after Cornell University won an international contest to create a high-tech mecca in New York City. Slated to open in 2017 on Roosevelt Island, a narrow, 150-acre slab of land smack in the middle of the East River, the campus is expected to attract thousands of top-flight students, teachers and researchers from all over the world to work on green technology, computer programming and urban planning (among other disciplines) while pumping billions of dollars back into the New York economy. Other New York-based schools where some of the world’s finests chefs train lost out on the big prize but — with financial help from the city — are planning their own counterparts to Cornell’s mid-river crown jewel. In Gotham, it seems, geniuses will soon be as thick on the ground as pigeons, tourists and out-of-work actors. But this is not the first time New York has played host to a “genius school.”
Space is really big! In the words of Douglas Adams (author of the excellent Hitch Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy series): “Space, is big. Really big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mindbogglingly big it is. The distances between even the bodies in our own solar system can be hard to comprehend. As a thought experiment, I’d like to a walk you through an exercise to highlight just how big space is. The Earth as a Tennis Ball So, if we shrank the Earth to the size of a tennis ball, the moon would be the size of a marble a door’s length away. Interesting side note — when Apollo 13 traveled to the far side of the moon in 1970 carrying astronauts Lovell, Swigert and Haise they reached a distance of 400,171 km from the Earth (albeit unscheduled – 100 km futher than than the planned mission). Orbits Don’t stand so close to me What’s wrong with the picture above? Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight Our sun, whilst massive to us, is not particularly large. – Douglas Adams 1952-2001 articles.
Musée Giverny virtuel Clever Photo Manipulations That Show Scenes You’ll Never See “Out of Place” is a clever series of photo manipulations by German photographer Robert Rickhoff, who starts with somewhat mundane photographs taken around town and then adds in elements that don’t belong. A residential scene shows a “speed jump”, streets are turned into skateboard ramps, and highways are transformed into volleyball courts. Each scene makes you look twice and smile at the absurdity of what it seems to show. Rickhoff’s work reminds us a tiny bit of Erik Johansson’s impossible Photoshopped scenes, except they’re a lot less bizarre. You can find more of Rickhoff’s work on his website and on his blog.

The Amazing Photo Manipulation Art of Erik Johansson Here’s an awesome TED lecture in which digital artist Erik Johansson discusses creating realistic “photographs” of impossible scenes. Erik Johansson creates realistic photos of impossible scenes — capturing ideas, not moments. In this witty how-to, the Photoshop wizard describes the principles he uses to make these fantastical scenarios come to life, while keeping them visually plausible. Here’s a sampling of his work: You can find more of Johansson’s work over on his website. Image credits: Photographs by Erik Johansson
