Time Lapse Space Shuttle

allaboutduncan — Tue, 27 Jul 2010 16:06:01 +0000

This time lapse video of the Space Shuttle prep and launch is amazing. I’ve seen some of the hangars and equipment in Houston and I can’t even imagine how large the hangar is in the portion of the video when the shuttle is lifted into a vertical position and moved. There are only a two scheduled shuttle launches left, plan your trip of you want to see one.

My 3 Faces

Here’s something I saw on another site (don’t remember where). Take a photo of your face facing forward, split it down the middle, separate the left and rights sides into new images and the complete those images by flipping them.

You’ll wind up with three images: image one – your original face photo, image two – your face as it would look if your left side was mirrored to your right, image three – your face as it would look if your right side was mirrored to your left.

Interesting results and it makes you see the differences in the sides of your face. My “left face” definitely looks a little more plump than my right face.

TomTom Adds Darth Vader

allaboutduncan — Tue, 04 May 2010 15:26:05 +0000

Appropriately enough for May 4th, TomTom has announced that Star Wars voices for their GPS products will be available (only in Europe, right now). Yes, it’s as cool as it sounds. Just watch the video for Darth Vader recording his voice. It ends as you’d expect, but it’s still hilarious.

For Sale – 2009 Chevrolet Aveo 5 LT

2009 Aveo LS - Blue

We’re selling the 2009 Chevrolet Aveo 5 Hatchback just a few months after buying it. I simply need something a little bit bigger. I told Jill that in a few years it would be too small. We’ve got two boys, who are getting bigger every day, despite me wishing they wouldn’t.

Despite the size, it’s an almost perfect car for my needs. It gets great gas mileage – advertised is 32MPG and I actually average 29-30MPG. Yes, I’m a geek, so I track it. So, if you’re in the market for a great used – practically new – car, then get in touch. I’ve got all the paperwork on the car and it still has over 2 years left on the factory warranty and only about 15,000 miles (still driving it).

It also has:

Automatic Transmission
Tilt Wheel
Power Steering
Air Conditioning
On-Star
MP3 CD Player (perfect for ling trips)
6 Speaker Premium Sound System
AUX input for your iPod or iPhone (or other device)
30 MPG (true gas mileage)
Oil Change Sensor
Tire Pressure Sensor

We’re asking $11,499.

If interested, just contact me at phillip.duncan+aveo@gmail.com

Disney says farewell to Brave’s coach Bobby Cox before his last Spring Training game at ESPN Wide World of Sports.

I’m glad spring training is over. Just a few more days and I’ll be able to watch baseball just about every day.

Roger Ebert’s New Voice

If you read the Esquire interview with Ebert that I posted a week or so ago, this is the computer recreation of his voice that a company was working on. While it’s a little rough, there’s no denying it’s Ebert’s voice. Very amazing.

New Jeff Lemire project: The Underwater Wielder

Robot 6 has great news – aside from the amazing Sweet Tooth from DC’s Vertigo – writer/artist Jeff Lemire has a new OGN due from Top Shelf in 2011. Yes, that’s a long ways off – but I’m sure it will be worth the wait. Check CBR’s Robot 6 for the full scoop.
