Ach! The wee pintlings!!!


So the folks over at Ardman studios...
Who you say?

Wallace and Grommet,, Chicken Run,, those guys,

"Oh"

yes them,

Well, they're wishing you a happy halloween with beer.
Go to this site, bring your quicktime, and enjoy!

Oh, and I hope you're lucky enough to be a Guiness Believer!!
Those who know, smile, those who don't, be a bit more sad.

Mother in law jokes (she sent)


Yesterday I was having some work done at the Ford dealer. A woman, blonde no less, came in and asked for a seven-hundred-ten. We all looked at each other and the mechanic asked, "What is a seven-hundred-ten?" She replied, "You know, the little piece in the middle of the engine, I lost it and need a new one. It had always been there." The mechanic gave the women a piece of paper and a pen and asked her to draw what the piece looked like. She drew a circle and in the middle of it wrote 710. He then took her over to another car which had the hood up and asked, "Is there a 710 on this car?" She pointed and said, "Of course, it's right here."

Two quickies

First, hey! What about me?!

Here's my portfolio linked at coroflot, where us industrial designers can be found.

Second, Kevin Kelly's cool tools. If you're unaware, you're out of excuses now!

Have a great today!

Go SOX!!! (white this year, red last)

High,,,,


5ives!!! is a great site of, well, 5ives. (not Burl ives!)

It's just fun

Also, here's a great link for Erik's trains!!

Flock You!! (did I post this already?)

Flock

It's where we're going. (with the whole web thing)

oh yeah and 43 folders is cool too.

mix thouroghly and help me make it all work too! (special awards for big help!)

I have no time for paranoia!!! (do I?!)

So, I'm tired of the general web paranioa. Too much of ourselves is online, but that is a small price to pay for the access to the wealth of knowledge that is out there. Sometimes, it just blows me away.

Just surprised that's all.

also, any of you industrial designers out there, what do you think of current advanced learning things online, and do you know of more than designboom and gnomon.

Thanks!

Great Human Factors Links (for me, not U)


Here we go

Usernomics

Human Factors and Ergonomics Society

Bad Human Factors and designs

Ergoweb

Every once in a while, we need these things!

And just in case you forgot, worth1000 rules!!

Too Much Monday Morning Goodness!!!

First, I found that the great Renault engineering team that won the F1 world championship this year played we are the champions with their engine (Dyno #8)

Here's the link to it, (it's the Mp3) GET IT!!!

I spent friday night trying to find it, whew! Thanks Jalopnik!

We make money not art! Umm just go there! Today is filled with too much goodness to blog!

Also there's a wonderful photographer with some mesmerising stuff, the three gorges damn and some cool marble quarries, and,, just go there, you're welcome!

Last, this one about trends, kinda new and interesting, gotta look into this!

Friday, October 21, 2005

I don't even know what to say


Just click on the link.

I'm speechless and still laughing.

Happy Friday!

By and by,, is this Neti's girl from the beastie boyz?
(see link, it's slightly more comical as a pun then)
Now I shall explain another joke in a droll manner unless my editor doesn't let me publish it right here.

Space,,, Balls,,,,,


Umm, I know that by the title of this posting, and me, you're thinking,, Mel Brooks.

Well you're wrong!!! (this time)

First, I've got a great site about MIT's developments for new martian terrestrial suits. Pretty damn cool!

Second, Jacob sent me a great link for meatballs!!! (which is what happens when you're in space without a suit) what a coincidence!! Check out the Waikiki Meatballs!

Read This book!!!


Umm, ok, it's not a book, but if you either want to hide what you're reading, or just want to mess with people. Here's a great site that you can buy book covers you always wanted, er ok, that you can use to mess with people.

Oh yeah, and if you don't believe I'm a real person blogging.

Penis!

hah!! (thanks Kent)

Do Not Move to Taun Taun!!


Ummm, Do not move to Tauntaun, apparently their damn sucks!!

(hint, it's the city below the damn that's about to burst in Massachusetts)

The Saturn V is now a wuss

Umm they're making a new big rockety thingy over at NASA.
By all accounts, it kicks ass!
I bet you want one!

Just don't strap it to a car in the desert and light it.
I'm just saying.

Captain, we need some transparent aluminum,,, DONE.

So umm, you may remember Scotty making transparent aluminum right here in the bay area, (you know, before taking the monteray bay aquarium's whales). Well, anyway, umm it's ready, (I bet they used voice activated computers too!)


Next up, a really nice replicator, finally I can get that Corellian ale I,,, oop! Right, that's star wars,, you're a dork too!

Neat things, ya know, for the kids

Check the New Nissan Skyline site here.

Ahh you folks over there, know what's up don't ya!

Check out the gallery, it's, well, freaking cool.

I actually like it, and would drive one,,

if it came to that.

Auugh!! Stop blog o' spamming me!

So that Mark Cuban guy (blog hero, money hero, pro sports team owner, all around neato guy) is up in arms, (as am I) about all the blog o crap that has been out there.

It's not fair, even when I, a lowly blogger, who likely, will never be read by humans, no matter how many times I tell them to, continue to get spam comments (rather than actual readers who find the things I find out mildly interesting).

Anyway, STOP the spam!!

Also, I's gots some new ideas!! Look out world! (umm, but I have to keep em secret ya know)

Tuesday, October 18, 2005

Fred's users guide (hints on what'll make this more useful for you)

Remember, you need to think through my little statements, AND, most of all, click on the links and see what's behind them! It's usually about 100% more interesting than my postings anyway! I'm just helping you out (plus I can come back and find em any day!)

Cheers!

File this under "E" for EVERYTHING

The library of congress has a website.

I'm just saying.

Craniage a` Treo- On your intelligence!


So, Jeff Hawkins is a badass brain. He made a few little things like the Treo Phone, the Palm Pilot, and started the companies that sold these things. He's a multi-thousandaire who knows his neural pathways.

Check out his book (I've been dying to read it, but I'm kinda lazy) Here's the link to the website about the book (and the systems therein)

Also, a fun MIT Tech review interview with him as well.

He's just some brilliant guy you should know about. (kinda like me?)

A lot of info, in a tiny little space!


How do you slam as much data into one all encompassing picture to identify hidden trends? Why Visual Complexity of course, well, that's the name of a site with some of the coolest datasets there are!!!

Check the site out through this link.

Oh, and have a nice complex day!

old school, is now new school (do ya feel smarter?)

Thanks to Jeff for this great link.
This is a cool shoe site to buy all the best old school kicks you can think of! Tigers! Kangaroos! And MORE!!!

(ok, so I want some of the sweet driving shoes!)

Just until I get my own car to drive ok

This is a great article about the different personalities needed for innovation. It's from the folks at fast company, who do some really great stuff!!

As you probably know, I'm an innovation nut, and showing how to improve it will ALWAYS interest me. Got any great ideas or questions? Slap em in the comments! (unless they're ads!!)

Cheers!

These guys are.




(click here for link)

You think you've got the luck?! What about this guy!?


So umm, there were two important runs in Houston yesterday.
Well you know how people dream about catching even a fly ball?

Well this guy caught the grand slam that sent it to extra innings,
AND
the homer that ended the longest playoff game at 18 innings!

So, ya still think you're lucky?

This place is a DUMP!!!! (for boats)


There's a great gallery of amazing pics of rusty old abandoned boats. It's just super neato!

So much coolness today!!! Wow!!


So there's a great link here (click on here!) to show you some great new info on the Chronicles of Narnia movie coming out! So very cool!

Next, our friends over at NASA are doing a great new sailplane that can find it's own thermals and learn on it's own to stay up for Looong periods of time.
They do such cool stuff!!

Oh, and in the world of "kick ass things you can do to wine" There is this great article for an AMAZING device to age wine! A truly astounding and wonderful development.


Have a great week kiddies!!

Friday, October 07, 2005

Finally I can patch my clothes correctly!!! 501s? No 501st!

Well maybe you suck!

Help me find the folding spacecraft!! Hint, it's Russian!

Itas Tass is reporting that a Russian "fold up" spaceship, was launched, (hint, it's a prototype).

So far the info I have so far is this link only.

I wanna see what it looks like people!

Itty bitty twister?!

The tiniest motor you've never seen? Yes, a new, awesome little nano-motor.
just hit the link and check it. Some day, you too will have medicine that you can turn on by an rfid chip! (or maybe not)

DARPA racing,, catch the fever!!!

So yes, the DARPA grand challenge is on for tomorrow (10/8/2005)
You can watch it here (webcast)
10 hours of riveting, edge of your seat, race-bot action.

Sadly, the Cal entry ghostrider, (a robotic motorcycle that is waaaayyy too cool for it's own good (you may remember I noted it a few pages back)) didn't make it. But best of all the "Spirit of Christianity" didn't get in either! Hah!! Fundies make me laugh! Especially when they use the power of prayer to solder their circuits for them!

Anyway, I don't preach here I just shows ya cool, so go there, and check out Terramax!!! It's AWESOME!! Imagine a HUGE machine that's all robot and can drive over everything, then autonomously drive it from LA to VEGAS!!!! Yeeehaaaw!! Go Terramax! Beat Stanford!! (just because!)

F=MA G=9.81 m/s2 *M =Fun!


So the fancy pinewood derby went on today, and kicked ass even though no one asked me to drive!! (can you believe it!?) So like I'm posting one pic because you HAVE to click the link just to see them all!

This link goes to the gizmag article

this link goes to the pics of all the cool cars

And this little piggy goes to market!!

Today's microarray

Ok, so I'm a wee bit peeved, but here is the link to Chewbacca throwing out the first pitch at Fenway. Like usual.

Here is great link of the most recent great science shots. I love salt and pepper!

And a final quick note, we're all screwed for good by self assembling robots. Wheee!!!

Just so ya know.

Wednesday, September 28, 2005

Chris is up and blogging!! Go read it!!!


My deer friend Chris has his blog up! Go and read it!!

He's smart and interesting! And if you don't believe that, then,, you're the dumb one!

Plus it's really hard for him to typ with hooves!

The odds of peeing myself are highly increased!

Dane Cook funny!!

Go to his site.

watch videos!

Be near a toilet so you can pee!

(or just view outside)

Sweet Jumps


UC Berkeley is competing in the DARPA challenge (without me!)

Go CAL!!!!


Oh yeah, and check their cool videos. Especially sweet jumps!!
(and if you haven't seen Napolean dynamite, well, then you suck.)

Oh don't you worry, he's a VERY well trained bear,, probably.


Yes, you too can kiss a bear in Canada. Our floppy headed neighbors to the north have invented yet another fun (read "stupid, possibly deadly, and definitely smelly") activity to join in when visiting our canuckian friends in the higher latitudes (unles of course you live in Alaska, then, they're kinda like easterners I guess).

Yeah, well click the link, laugh, and then be glad that you live in a city where bears are wisely kept in spacious cages that we're not encouraged to enter into unless you're going to tell them about jesus, and then, if that's what you're going to do, I'll pay your way into the zoo.

Can you tell I've had coffee today? Well I have !!!

Commander, these retro rockets SUCK!!!

So you may remember our very own little cluster @#$#@ when we tried to free the hostages in Iran back in 1980. Well, here's a really cool way that it almost worked, without the horrible unfortunate crashing and death of our wonderful boys in green.

This was an experiment to land C-130's in a soccer field, and well, "stop on a dime"

It turned out to be more expensive than that. (everybody was fine, one person bit their toungue and another had a bruise, after you watch the video, all you can say, is, wow!) Oh and four of the people in the rear of the plane were "blown out the back hatch" still all were fine.

Secret stuff is so cool!

Thursday, September 22, 2005

I can find you in 3 quick clicks! (they finally made it!)


So there's a new "cheap" GPS tracker out. Seems like some decent work. I'm not overly impressed by the ID. Simpler and cleaner (or a lot more tech look) would've been a better choice, and don't even ask me about the color! But overall, it's a great piece of function! So go ahead, fall off a glacier, get trapped in a shipping container, they'll find you!! (or at least your bloated corpse!) Unless of course you're just being held hostage or something.

Cheers!

Tuesday, September 20, 2005

oOOOH! pRETTY!!!!


Thanks to our friends at NASA (Bill, this means you!)

There are these wonderful pictures of solar flares and the like. They're just so beautiful!!

Thursday, September 15, 2005

Mad physics are fun!! finally a great way to remove those annoying eyebrows!


So umm,, watch the video, it's AWESOME!!

Best part is, they teach you how to make kick ass fireballs!!!

Waaay better than those atomic fireballs!!!

Wednesday, September 14, 2005

umbarrased much?

At the big U.N. conference, our president has to go #1.
Can you help?

Best part, he had to ask Condi,

write what you think Condi wrote back to him in the comments.

1. You should've gone earlier like I told you!

2. Pee on Gerhard Schroeder, he's numb from the waist down.

3. Didn't we get you that freedom leg bag?

4. Remember, you're wearing your "special meeting big boy pants" so you can pee and talk at the same time! (which consequently is why he makes those faces!)

5. Umm, you have to write me that note BEFORE you go!

Wow!! I think I'm faster than me!, no,, wait,,,


So check this out! Forza motorsport and those brain boys over at Microsquish have developed a far more interesting AI system for their game check here (thanks we make money not art) It's rather remarkable, and with my insane interest in driving, I'm all the more impressed. you should be too.

Increase your self worth! Feel better about you!! Only about a thousand bucks worth of books!

Great Blogger Josh Kaufman has a PMBA Persnoal MBA project and reading list. Josh you rock!

Check it out!! (I've already got and read about 10 of the books!) Thanks to Chucky Lienbach for keeping me interested in getting learnded through the yiers. Thanx tu him I'm smarturd.

Stop Spamming my comments!!

If you have a real comment, great, but don't put your silly ads on my blog please, this is for my infotainment, and for people interested in my general silliness.

If people want escorts or life insurance, there's plenty of ways they can get that elsewhere and you know it.

Thanks,
-the proprietor

Today's magic brought to you by the letter Schwa!



So I've found a few fun things today.
First, the SFBC site (San Francisco Bicycling Coalition) good people, great cause (help Katrina people first stupid!) They've got a great Map reference site!

Also, a really cool article about using old flying reptile designs to develop fighter planes, waaay cool! (hint, it the picture farthest right)

Anyway, that's today's coolest stuff so far.

Tune in later when flying rodent man says,
"Do I look fat in these tights?"

Thursday, September 08, 2005

Shazbat! Proof weirdos are better!!!!!

Finally I have proof as to why my being a weirdo is ok in my profession!
See this great article about a study into, well, brilliant weirdos, (ok, that's not how the story goes, but go with me on that!

Also, on the same site, a GREAT hydrogen storage breakthrough!!

here we go H car!


Ummm,, Mr. Zissou, your Shark is ready!

This is so wild, this shark (found at national geographic news.com which can be fun!

It was found just before the hurricane, looks surprisingly like the Jaguar shark designed for the Steve Zissou movie with Bill murray(awesome soundtrack especially if you love Bowie!), hysterical!! (it's just smaller) (umm the one on the right is the one from the movie, the one on the left is real).

Only reality as usual is stranger than fiction, since the one above actually flouresces too!!!

Nature is so freaking cool!!!

Wednesday, September 07, 2005

Audio,, you've been posted! sniiffff

Yeah, I don't know why, but Jacob said bloodhound gang,,

Mmmmmm, Kindred Spirit or, whatever is Tom Greene doing?


So like umm,,
I can tend to get distracted,, (does anything ever get tracted? Tractors could get tracted I guess. I've been attracted. Sometimes I don't even finish parenthesis.

Sometimes when I whisper I'm in parenthesis, it doesn't seem like thats something that could be loud, no one ever says like "PARENTHESIS!!" really really loud,

I find that odd.

watch this.
It's Tom Greene talking about ADD or ADHD or that thing where,, oh look chrome!!!

sometimes I like to prescribe medicine to flowers.
Paxil kills pretty plants,
so does pee.

I once put a cactus on the cocktail.
It didn't go so well,
then again, it didn't ever get syphilus!!

I'm going to make a phone call!!!
this picture is in my neato file!
I have a neato file!

Friday, August 26, 2005

Time for blobby fun!!

Go here, smile:)

Passion!!!! (umm that's what the blog is about)

This is a cool post about rapid development,, of anything!
Looks fun!
Try it! So build something already!

You might even like it!!

Tune in a bit more than Tokyo

Check out this micromotor surgical system, I am especially impressed by the use of frequencies to activate different systems within the micromachines.

Speaking of micromachines, I wonder what ever happened to the micromachine man!!!
(he did some fedex work too)

Special Alert! Bad web design still runs amok! (and this thing is COOL!)

This is an awesome climbing ascender. It's a rather radical and interesting design. Do click through, but there is a special bonus, ultra sucky web design. Sorry Elserpento!

Take THAT stupid!!

An interesting article about sea anenomes and how they maintain territor and space (from MSNBC) . It's pretty odd, and well, just take a look!

Wednesday, August 24, 2005

If I drank milk, little bubbles would shoot out of my nose!!!


El Serpento,
is STOOPIDDD (But really really funny!)

Just laugh a lot, then go to the link below and laugh more.

Thank you Fark (go to fark a lot, it rocks).

That is all,
all the rest is commentary,,
go and learn it.

Oh nanotubes, I love you so!

A rather mundane post (discovery channel news) with some new data, but the nano revoloution is almost here!
Yes, we've been hearing about it for years, but now, things are starting to be actually made in labs, which of course means, that production is 3 to 5 years away of some amazing, and strange things that will seem to defy our known strengths and operation modes of our current existence.
A bike that stores energy and then can power itself, with full suspension that weighs only 5 pounds. A racecar that weighs a mere 500 pounds, yet can sustain impacts unfathomable today.
SUPERLIGHT sattelites that are more complex and successful than ever.

Just think strong, lightweight, and odd powers. Even the whole van der whal's forces of gecko's foot adhesion has been improved.

I can't wait!!!

Powered Morphing Wing, cooolness in a drone!

This project is simply cool (also reference the previous post with the itty bitty plane! (just scroll down).

Here is the project, and here is the video of the wings.

Thanks to we make money not art for pointing this out.

Out of this world? nahh, just Lunar


Lets take a listen to Lunar's ID podcast.

Thanks engadet and core 77 and everyone else that saw this.

Look What I helped make!!!

Yayyyy!!! Proof I've worked at Sharper Image!!
So yes, I did actually do work on this (earlier work, yet, approved actual work). Some of it is still barely visible!
The ipulse and isphere were done around when I was there and I worked on similar projects, but they will not see the light of the day.

Glad I have some proof for the portfolio!! Cheers!

Stupid,, ow, make it stop, (and get me one!)


Ok, so my running joke is that we have to get helmets when we eventually have kids, just for safety (hopefully they will ride the full size bus, but we will love them either way (if they ride the short bus they can go to work with daddy!))

but, ummm,, click the link.
oh, and it's called THUDGUARD.

buh,,,,,,

Can We PLEASE Make STUPID HURT!!!

Pat Robertson

(just click on the link, let the stupid seep in just a little)

Come on, watch Aeon Flux,, or you're just not interested

Aeon, nuff said.

Evil inside (hint, NO intel)


This is a great link from wemakemoneynotart about evil interiors (3d models)

Anyway, just cool and weird, and interesting.
I'm weird, we've gone over this.

Look to the right, you might see,,,,

JOHNNYY!!!!!

Mad props to Jeff!!!

Ok, so I'm a huge dork (haven't figured that out yet? THEN YOU'RE NOT PAYING ATTENTION!)

This is the Wiffle ball site (official y'all)

Jeff, (a kind clever fellow I work with)
Was generous enough to hook me up with the cap on the right. It rocks and I look mildly handsome in it! Thanks Jeff!!!

(I don't have to report this on my taxes do I?)

Now it's time to rock in Wiffle, (before I go home and my wife strikes me out with her 70 MPH knuckleball!!! She can pitch!!)

Anyway, my sports occasional ineptitude aside, wiffle rocks, go out and play!

Serenity NOW!!!!!

YAYYY!!!!!!!
Dear Everyone!!! You can now make reasonably sushi-like
looking foodstuffs on a daily basis now!
Not that I know anyone who craves sushi daily and nightly.
oh,, wait,, yep, that's everyone but Fresnans!!!
Hopefully these people will get clever and make a reasonably priced version of this.

Just think, you could put other things in there too!
Rice Crispies and Peeps!! (that's candy sushi!)
or Wheat germ and tofu (for you vegan hippie weirdos).

Anyway, this is just too cool!

Monday, August 22, 2005

Lincoln would love this,, as he too lived in a log cabin

Yeah, I think this looks great in a log cabin, and wholly wrong,, you know, anywhere else but near a woodpile. However, I do like the use of natural materials, and well, If you put it on the hearth, next to the wood you're going to burn in the fire, (and remember not to ever toss it into the fire). It could be really nice. But what do I know?

Friday, August 19, 2005

How do I get a new favorite site this quickly?! (check the monkey motion!)


So I've always wanted a neato little site that shows the majesty of neato motion. Well, my wish has finally been granted!

Videos and pictures, AND CAD files!!! That's amazing, I can just click and scale and shove them in mechanisms!! It's so cool!

Feel free to watch them all till your eyes cross!! Have a nice day!

Go through this site heavily, there is so much to learn, and you have very little time!!!

Totally Tooobular!!!



OK, dumb article name I know, but,,, Carbon Nanotubes are finally coming of age!!

Check out this article in Nature (oh my gosh, is this a technically valid news source,,, well wait! Yes it is!)

Also check the neat video link following! It's great, amazing, and mildly confusing, but altogether,, wow!

I can't wait to see nanotubes used in F1 cars!! Imagine cars with all the same strength and half the weight again!!! Super thing wing elements! Helmets that weigh half as much! Bike frames that weigh mere ounces and nearly indestructible wheels! All from a material that we'll never run out of! Oh yeah, and brake rotors with higher abrasion, and heat resistance, while weighing half as much! (note, lighter rotational weight means energy savings!! Hello carbon wheels on regular cars!)

It's just so cool!

Michigan state and San Jose state Suck,, but "This Spartan Life" !!!


ok, so this is abosoloutely wonderful!! I love making technology do what you want to do. The video blog? This Spartan Life, is so amazing, watch the Bob Stein interview for a start. I'm hooked! Now I want to go find them online! (yes I xbox live occasionally, freds4hb you know, it's me for everything)

It's such a wonderful piece of work! I wonder if there's a way to carry a sponsor's banner in game! (did I take the multiverse too far?)

Now we can get a sweet plane at home!


Thanks engadget! This is a sweet little plane that works indoors and is fully functional!! I worked on something simple years ago (and was told I was nuts, what's new?)

Oh it's just so sweet!!!

Also, check out the centennial challenges from our buds at NASA!!! Let's make some crazy stuff!!

Monday, August 08, 2005

Today there are cool things!



So I've been a fan of Seth Godin's writing for a while, he had a pretty neat piece today. However his #2 issue (flipping people to Macs) I've always had a problem with. Of course its cause I'm an industrial designer, and they don't make great ID software that runs on a Mac. Its just frustrating whenever you say you're a designer and they ask if you have a mac, I gladly would (even though it would cause me anguish (thank God they made a multi button mouse finally!)

Second, this is just shockingly cool! (click the link!)

Monday, August 01, 2005

I've been a bad boy and written nothing

So here's a quick update.

1. The wedding was awesome!! I'm now a Mr.! (ok, well I'm not a Mrs. but she is, so what am I supposed to say!?)

2. The honeymoon rocked! Literally! Rock climbing, mountain biking, road biking, and off road driving in Moab utah!

3. The Apartment is coming together! Our place is now looking interestingish (as will be cemented this weekend once the new couch gets here!) Plus new pots and pans and such!

4. So, I'm almost done with the dreaded thank yous, then free thinking all over the place! wahoo!!!

Here's something fun to check out today. It's Squid labs in Emeryville, these guys are pretty stinking interesting!

This kid is AMAZING!!!!

So like, umm, go to this site, download the movies, and be AMAZED!!! This kid does some of the most amazing things with a helicopter (remote control) that I've EVER seen!

Someone needs to go pro shortly after potty training!!!

The hand eye coordination and lack of attention to what people "should" do with a helicopter are what really make this kid something!


Thanks boing boing!
