Random Image: Record Shop Animation

This image is somewhat important to me — after seeing it, it came to my realization that I could actually preserve some highly valued images in this manner. I had taken a 3D camera on my trip to Kenya last March but discovered that the film winder (a manual turning pin) had broken so [...]

Uncombable Hair Syndrome?

Boing Boing has a nice little article about the wacky affliction known as Uncombable Hair Syndrome where the clustering of the hair growth makes it appear like “spun glass” and the shapes of the hairs themselves are odd enough to prevent combing as one might normally. Weird.

I was doing my regular rounds on the comics page features and such, coming across this entry for Ripley’s Believe It Or Not, featuring quite the small gal named Jyoti Amge who, per the panel, is 15 years old, but only 23 inches tall. Google time!
