The human clock

Here’s a cool little flash application that shows the current time with the help of small human characters.

This is Russian Federal highway Moscow city - Yakutsk City, named “Lena”, nowadays.

The road doesn’t have asfalt surface, though it is a Federal, vital highway.

Everytime it rains the road gets paralized, these shots are made a few days before the traffic jam for 600 cars got stuck there. Hunger and lack of the fuel followed, according to the witnesses. One woman gave a born to a child right in the public bus she was riding.

Construction team afraids to appear on site because during their previous visit it was beaten by people who stuck in the jam for a few days. People breaking the locks on the trucks, in a search of food and warm cloths.

Fuel, food, firearms and steel tow-line are the things that are needed most these days on this Federal highway.

BEIJING - China has come up with an earthquake prediction system which relies on the behavior of snakes, state media said Thursday, two days after two quakes struck off neighboring Taiwan.

Experts at the bureau monitor snakes at local snake farms via video cameras linked to a broadband Internet connection. The video feed runs 24 hours per day.

Aluna - A Proposal For The World's First Tidal Powered Moon Clock.

This beautifully monumental public art work is a proposal for a lunar clock which will track the 'the phase and position of the Moon, and the height of the tides'. A group of British designers and engineers have grouped together under the name of The Aluna Project to create this forty metre wide, five storey high structure which will be situated in both the UK and Australia, making it a dual-hemisphere installation. The design team say Aluna is designed to incorporate science, technology and sustainability into public art. Aluna is described as 'a journey of rediscovery of the natural science between the Moon, the tides and a planet dominated by water. Aluna makes the link between ourselves, the Earth and the Moon. Aluna leaves an awareness of our place in the Universe and encourages a sustainable future. Aluna demonstrates one of the world’s most reliable renewable energy sources. As long as the Moon circles the Earth, the Earth keeps turning and the oceans don’t freeze, the tides will keep ebbing and flowing.'

Wooden computer

We've seen wooden keyboards and mice before, but a new company, Wood Contour, is making a custom built desktop computer made from a single piece of hardwood. You don't have to worry about deforestation, as the company says the lumber comes from forests that are responsibly managed. or so they say. It'll cost you though....for a 17" monitor, expect to pay $395. The solid wood wireless mouse is $149 and you pick from several types of wood, such as cherry or maple.
The set of dusty library books and smoking jacket is extra.

Mousepad Couch

Remember the mouse pad? Just like Vanilla Ice, they peaked in the 90s, but now just sort of take up space. That was, until Man had a Vision.
The Mousepad Couch is made up of over...a bunch...of mousepads. It looks extremely comfortable, could be even better in a multicolor or photo pad version.
