Ladies and gentlemen, it’s not often that ingenuity and comedy so perfectly produce a hilarious offspring such as this trailer. It’s a beautifully sweded take on the Iron Man 3 trailer.
I’m impressed at how close they matched the Marvel original:

Dr. John C. Mather & Dr. George F. Smoot’s 2006 Nobel Prize for Physics
I realize I’m 7 years late but I want to share this interesting medal I saw today. This is the 2006 Nobel Prize for Physics currently located in the lobby of NASA Headquarters in Washington, DC.
It’s not the camera that counts
Avanaut (aka Vesa Lehtimäki) is proof that creativity, ingenuity and photography know how, are the qualities that make an intriguing photo. With out a camera worth thousands of dollars or pencil thin models, Avanaut has turned out some dynamic shots, using primarily, Star Wars lego figures. His use of light, perspective and inexpensive props, produced some very cool dramatic scenes full of motion.

Returning from the Edge of Space, A Tribute to Felix Baumgartner
Felix Baumgartner is slated to do a 120,000 foot skydive from the edge of space on Sunday, through the Red Bull Stratos Program. An attempt on Tuesday was cancelled due to weather. It’s an inspiring feat– defying gravity to get to the edge of space and shirking common sense by jumping out of a perfectly good… balloon.
While Baumgartner is at it, he will be breaking the sound barrier, going mach speed– like Chuck Yeager without the X-1. Incidentally, Yeager broke the sound barrier October 14, 1947. Baumgartner may potentially be doing it again sans aircraft October 14, 2012. As Matt Scott puts it: “To infinity and beyond… and back again…”
The battle for jobs in the future will focus on creative problem solving. Robots get the rest of the jobs.
