Posted 11/19/2009 6:00 am by Ron HoganYou know, it’s got to be pretty embarrassing if you get stuck in a wall.

Posted 11/18/2009 10:30 am by Ron HoganNeatorama calls it bomb-proof wallpaper. No matter what you call it, the X-Flex Blast Protection System is quite possibly the world’s most indestructible sheet of paper.

Fruit and vegetables are the core of a good diet, to be sure, but there’s nothing fun about asparagus or celery or melons. That’s why he turned to Carl Warner and a team of designers […]

Posted 11/13/2009 10:00 am by Ron HoganYou know, for a guy that’s written about the Large Hadron Collider so much, I’m not really sure I understand. I mean, I vaguely get what it’s supposed to do, but the actualities of the thing? Not so much. All I know is that it’s expensive and fragile. The geniuses at CERN need to dumb […]

Posted 11/12/2009 6:00 am by Ron HoganJuan Carlos Roldan and five of his friends were out one beautiful night in their town of Clodomira, Santiago del Estero in Argentina. They were singing and dancing, having a good time, when suddenly it struck. Well, it didn’t strike so much as it came crab-running towards them. They captured the infamous petido orejudo, or […]

The subway conductor for the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) was pulling into the station when she saw frantic waving from the platform. That’s when she saw the face pop up in front of her window. […]

Posted 11/10/2009 6:00 am by Ron HoganThere have been Roomba Pac-Mans before, but never one quite like this. Using five Roombas, special software codes, and a whole lot of time, three students have designed a live-action, 3-D version of Pac-Man. The ghosts chase Pac-Roomba, which is controlled by joystick. When the Pac-Roomba hits one of the power pellets that allows him […]
