This week: Blizzards. Ice. Snow drifts. Rather sunny and warm. Wait, what?
Yup, we've seen it all this week folks. All that's left is for delicious pastries to start falling from the skies, and we can check off the last item on our home-made "meteorological phenomena" list. And boy, you have no idea how long it took to cross "raining clear pomegranate juice" from the list. I think we've all licked more than our share of puddles, trying to not let a single freakishly fruity storm cloud pass us by undetected.
So, while we sit here pondering pastries, have a look at some of the stuff online that's been distracting us from licking whatever drops out of the sky:

1967 Toyota 2000GT Solar Electric Vehicle We've seen our fair share of electric and solar-powered vehicles, but I hereby declare this as the SEXIEST ONE EVER. Classic Japanese hot rod mixed with modern electronics? Yes please. |
Although, we're all a little bit more wary about hail ever since that crystallized dog food hail the other week. We thought for sure it was chocolate. It wasn't.
Although Ruby (the shop dog) had the time of her life.

It was hosted by Endeavor Arts Gallery located in the downtown Calgary. In preparation to the show we have donated a bunch of electronics and glowy […]
We've got in an inventory of Grand Wing Servo S03N standard servos. These pack quite a bit of power, and prove to be pretty good for standard servo applications. We're sorry to say that the RM1 is no-more. The RM1 is dead; long live the RM1. (I never understood that phrase...) All hail the RM1a! […]
What's worse than having to wait nine months? Having to wait a year and nine months. That's where we're finding ourselves, with Beakerhead here in Calgary aiming to land in September of 2013. Luckily, though, this festival of art fused with technology (think MakerFaire) will have a few smaller events between now and then. We […]
