    ASUS has always been known for making some of the best gaming computers in the world. Now they can also be known for making some of the coolest: ASUS now has two notebooks that are built using bamboo - and selling for under $1,000. The ASUS U6V and U2E Bamboo Series Notebook computers use industrial-strength two-year-old Moso bamboo for virtually the entire casing of the product. "We spent the last couple of years perfecting and working with bamboo," said Jonney Shih, Chairmen of ASUSTeK Computer Incorporated. "It is trendy yet responsible." Pound-for-pound, bamboo also has a regeneration rate that is simply unmatched in nature. It has been known to grow two feet in just 24 hours and using less energy in to manufacture than those made out of metal alloys from refined petroleum.

I have a failing memory and I remembered in one of our Twine conversations that somehow I got the impression that that's your web site. I love the site, but I'll put it somewhere else, if it's not yours.

Observations: Music to the (ringing) ears: New therapy targets tinnitus - 3 views

    "Loud, persistent ringing in the ears, known as tinnitus, can be vexing for its millions of sufferers. This perceived noise can be symptomatic of many different ills-from earwax to aging-but the most common cause is from noise-induced hearing loss, such as extended exposure to construction or loud music, and treating many of its underlying neural causes has proven difficult. But many people with tinnitus might soon be able to find refuge in the very indulgence that often started the ringing in the first place: music. "
  • Jack Logan on 02 Jan 10
     
    Thanks for this post, fish man, (wow! I'm really liking diigo!!); as I experience tinnitus, and, I've only had it for a year or so, music DOES help, because, like so many other audio phenomenon, it distracts the mind from 'listening' to the tinnitus sound (frequency, in my case) and, thus, I don't really hear it, if I'm not paying attention to it - a wonderful ailment, really, because, if you don't pay attention to it, you really don't have it!!
  • fishead ...*∞º˙ on 02 Jan 10
     
    (agreed!!!) and I too have been dealing with the incessant ringing just quite recently. (I think it's because of my cold) but it is worrysome, as there does not seem to be any real cure. perhaps it has something to do with playing a brass instrument too loudly?

Today, Evri is announcing that it will be acquiring Radar Networks, along with its core technical team and its main product, Twine. Rumors surfaced yesterday on ReadWriteWeb that Evri was being acquired, but that is not the case. Evri is the acquirer."

    I read the article as well. Very interesting as well! It's hard to tell if anything in T1 will be maintained, so I guess we'll have to wait to hear an announcement from Evri on that. I've been a member of Evri - I'll take a look over there next!

  • I love dirty martinis, but thank god (little “g” on purpose because I’m not fond of  strict rules of behavior and BS dogma regarding a point source deity with a beard who looks like us). I only drink them on weekends – fer now (hee hee!). I used to hate the taste of DMs along with other hoytee- -toytee bourgeoisie (I’m not a communist – I swear!) drinks (e.g. manhattans, cosmos, rusty nails, etc), but a dear friend of mine for over twenty five years introduced them to me a coupla years ago. Did this post have too many parentheses in it? If it did, it’s cuz I’m on my second dirty martini. If U check the date on this post, it’s a Sunday :^).

  • Imagine someone rolling out what looks like a blueprint … only the buildings begin to literally pop off the page, showing you like never before what the structure will look like before it is even built. There is no way to describe how amazing this architectural innovation is – you have to see it to believe it (video below)! Forget the physical: you can now generate high-speed, life-like, visually three-dimensional and fully-automated holographic models of buildings cheaper, faster and more accurately than its ‘real life’ equivalents.

Astonishing Rube Goldberg music video by OK Go | DVICE - 2 views

  • Never mind that Chicago power pop group OK Go pleaded for weeks to get their greedy record company EMI to allow this unique video to be embeddable — it is now, and just look! The group's Rube Goldberg masterpiece is here for all to see. "This Too Shall Pass" might be the most elaborate setup ever, and beyond that, it's got to be the most tasteful and colorful. That's what you get when you assemble a brilliant team consisting of wizards from Syyn Labs, Caltech, and MIT Medialab. They created this magnificent machine inside a 10,000-square-foot abandoned warehouse, and Flying Box Productions shot it all with brilliant skill and artistry. Why were all those people clapping at the end? Was the video successfully shot in one take? That huge warehouse full of paraphernalia couldn't have been easy to set up. Want to see how this was done? Four videos with a few hints:
