Click on the picture above to go to the video. 8 years worth of digital photos of the designer’s face, stitched together into a video montage. Wow! Sure, it may not be a first-of-a-kind, but it’s the first that I have seen properly. Also, I like this guy’s design work, in general, so this is my small way of giving a thumbs-up.

New Great Game Revisited
Part 1 – Iran and Russia, scorpions in a bottle

Things get curiouser and curiouser in the Iranian wonderland. Imagine what happened last week during Friday prayers in Tehran, personally conducted by former president Ayatollah Hashemi Rafsanjani, aka “The Shark”, Iran’s wealthiest man, who made his fortune partly because of Irangate – the 1980s’ secret weapons contracts with Israel and the US.
As is well known, Rafsanjani is behind the Mir-Hossein Mousavi-Mohammad Khatami pragmatic conservative faction that lost the most recent battle at the top – rather than a presidential election – to the ultra-hardline faction of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei-Mahmud Ahmadinejad-Iran Revolutionary Guard Corps. During prayers, partisans of the hegemonic faction yelled the usual “Death to America!” – while the pragmatic conservatives came up, for the first time, with “Death to Russia!” and “Death to China!”
Solar Storms and You – Activity 9: A Soda Bottle Magnetometer
Introduction
Solar storms can affect the Earth’s magnetic field causing small changes in its direction at the surface which are called ‘magnetic storms’. A magnetometer operates like a sensitive compass and senses these slight changes. The soda bottle magnetometer is a simple device that can be built for under $5.00 which will let students monitor these changes in the magnetic field that occur inside the classroom. When magnetic storms occur, you will see the direction that the magnet points change by several degrees within a few hours, and then return to its normal orientation pointing towards the magnetic north pole.
