Artic Laser
How would you like to own the most powerful handheld laser in the world?
Using Diodes harvested from high end A/V equipment, this blue wonder is no joke. Any exposure to an eye would immediately cause significant irreversible damage. Shoot it in the sky and hit inadvertently hit an aircraft - you ARE going to jail.
Swap it for your office mate's laser pointer before his big TPS report presentation, and chuckle until you soil yourself. (no, seriously, don't do that. Though it would be funny. Until you were caught and fired...at best)
MaximumPC did a really good review of the Artic check it out. If you have one, be sure to COMMENT BELOW on your blue light shenanigans.
An make sure you buy 'laser proof' safety goggles too...not like they are going to help.

Disturbingly Cool "Big Head" Papercraft Halloween Costume - 3D Face Costume - Gizmodo
Disturbingly Cool "Big Head" Papercraft Halloween Costume - 3D Face Costume - Gizmodo
Inspired by the big head mode in retro video games, Eric Testroete created this trippy papercraft self portrait for Halloween last weekend. The geometric look uses 370 individual paper triangles, and here's how he did it:
The first step was to model his face in 3D Studio Max. After overlaying a wireframe, he added textures in Mudbox 2010 and Photoshop CS3, before using software called Pepakura to break the model up into printable sections. The effect is genuinely impressive, and he's posted a full run-down on the process:

Christini AWD250X AWD Motorcycle finished the Dirt Rider 24 hour torture test Flawlessly
Christini AWD Motorcycles Continue to Dominate
The 24 Hour torture test is an annual event hosted by Dirt Rider Magazine in which entrants run their machines over a closed course for a continuous 24 hour period, stopping only for routine maintenance, fuel, and to change riders. This years event was a test of 250 4-stroke machines. Each manufacturer was allowed to enter one stock and one modified bike. The Christini was run as a class by itself.
The Christini Team included Joe Giordano, Ben Smith, P.J. Cossman, Evan Yarnall, Scott Wynn and was anchored by company President Steve Christini. The event took place at the Hungry Valley SVRA in Gorman, CA January 20-21. The course consisted of a 23 mile loop (or a 16 mile cut-off) through the mountains and valleys of Southern California. The weather was cold and sunny most of the day, and the rain the previous weekend made for some spectacular conditions.
A cold rain fell during most of the night leaving much of the trails a greasy, muddy mess...the perfect conditions to show off the unique capabilities of the Christini AWD System. Editors from Dirt Rider Magazine each got to ride and evaluate the machines through a variety of terrain. The Christini was a huge hit with everyone who rode it.
Shortly after 10:00am Wednesday morning, the Christini AWD250X crossed the line completing a grueling 24 hour test without mechanical incident.

UnitedNuclear.com: Buy your GEEK Supplies.
United Nuclear - Scientific Supplies
www.unitednuclear.com
Read the WIRED article about how the pinko, left-wing, anti-science, over-regulate, ba$tards are trying to shut down bastions of hope for the science education of our children such as UnitedNuclear.com. No wonder the US now ranks 13th in the world for science education (behind Tibet).
So what if you want to buy 37 lbs of potassium perchlorate for 'personal use'? Besides, this is the only site I've found to buy Radioactive Uranium Marbles.
The article also talks about two Geek Movement Founding Fathers: Mr. Wizard and Bill Nye the Science Guy.
Enjoy
