Here are 5 of the 6 Alkali metals reacting to air and water. When reacting to air, the metals seem to simply change color, but when they touch water, each one becomes a small explosive. [via]

Japanese fan-girl meets the stars of Harry Potter
July 22, 2009 @ 5:13 pm
Meeting Rupert Grint (Ron Weasley)
/Film reports on the very peculiar (and very funny) Japanese fan girl interviews that came from one of Japan’s comedy television shows, Sanma Akashiya’s “Karakuri Terebi”, running a contest to pick one lucky viewer to tour the set of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.
The winner of course, is a huge fan — obsessed even — and her reactions to seeing the actual stars of the film in person are priceless. These videos are a must-see, even if you’re not a big Harry Potter fan.
Meeting Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter)
Meeting Emma Watson (Hermione Granger)
My life in sneakers and shoes
February 14, 2009 @ 3:39 pm
I just photographed all of the pairs of sneakers that I own on my hardwood floor and the result is somewhat mesmerizing. I realize now that I have enough pairs of footwear to last more than half a month without ever wearing a pair twice. If there’s one thing I don’t need any more of, it’s sneakers.
Photographed in total here are 22 pairs of sneakers and shoes consisting of the following brands:
- PUMA
- Adidas
- ASICS
- New Balance
- Kenneth Cole
- Dunlop Volleys/Mooks
I left several pairs out of this collection of photographs simply because I don’t really wear them. I decided to only photograph the shoes that I really wear on rotation.
I’ve included each image on its own page so you can comment on individual shoes if you want. So comment away. Tell me which ones you don’t like, tell me which ones you think are alright, and ask me things about each pair and I’ll try to answer them. Click inside to see ‘em!
