Watchmen Movie
2009-03-10 03:09:00 Watched this today but wasn’t too impressed. It would have been better if I’d read the comics first I feel. Not much to say about it either, apart from it being a bit long and too fantasy based for my taste. Apart from that, the special effects impressed and the intimate scene placed to the song ...

Painful Looking Bike Concept
2008-09-01 01:56:00 Came accross a new concept for a folding commuting bike today. It looks pretty good, however I think the designer has overlooked a standard human issue… Genitals are not meant to be mushed! This does look nicely aerodynamic, and the folding part is a great idea. However, pretty much all the body weight appears to be ... More About: Bike , Concept

Happy Corner
2008-06-04 14:31:00 Came across an exciting new pastime today, don’t know why I hadn’t seen it before. Happy Corner , also known as Aluba (”hitting the tree” in Taiwan), or Pole-racking in Great Britain, is a practice in which a person’s groin is ‘cornered’ rudely against a pole-shaped solid object. Happy Corner is also a growing phenomenon in residence halls, ...

Large Flame Modified Lighter
2008-05-25 02:10:00 The other day, I got Matt to get a lighter so I could make paper rockets. Continuing on a pyromaniac theme, I set about modifying the same lighter to produce a large flame. It turns out that its very simple. Just remove the cap, lift the flame height adjuster, and then you can move ... More About: Lighter

Free Ice Cream at Hills Road
2008-05-15 01:36:00 This has to be one of the best ideas ever, send a mass email around the school advertising free ice cream from the van over only a one hour period.

Ducklings Going Through Hills Road
2008-05-15 01:26:00 On Monday, one mother duck and her many ducklings waddled through Hills Road . As most of the college were following them, I thought I’d join in and take a video.

End to End 2008 - Trial Run
2008-05-14 22:52:00 We figured that it would be a good idea to try some stuff out before we actually go and camp for 8 days (14 if you include each days either side). That’s why this weekend we drove to Thetford Forest and camped over night, then cycled near 70 miles to get back. The idea was ... More About: Charity , Cycling , Trial , 2008

Long Exposure Night Photos
2008-05-02 13:25:00 Whilst driving around one evening, I can’t remember quite how it came about but we started using phone back-lights to make patterns on long exposure photos. We were going to use them for some kind of fund-raising to do with End to End 2008, but it’s unlikely that that will happen now, so I thought ... More About: Photos , Night , Long , Exposure

Pumped Out the Pond
2008-04-26 01:15:00 Over the course of about 20 minutes and a o.4kW industrial drainage pump, we got the pond almost completely drained. Of course, all the fishes had been removed, even the last huge black koi carp that we had to drain 3/4 of the pond before we could see it. Unfortunately, I wasn’t expecting the pump to ...

Coffee Intake proportional to Coursework Load
More articles from this author:2008-03-06 18:03:00 I am going to find out whether the amount of coffee needed to keep me sane (or from falling asleep) is directly related to the amount of coursework that I’m doing.
