Cat Shit One Trailer From the recent TAF 2009 (Tokyo Anime Fair 2009) comes news of a new 3D anime called “Cat Shit One – The Animated Series” based on a manga by the same title. The Cat Shit One manga was about a group of American soldiers fighting in the Vietnam war during the 1970′s. Uninteresting? well, that’s because I didn’t tell you that all of the characters are cute furry little animals. In the manga, all of the Americans were bunnies while the Vietnamese were cats, not what you would normally picture when you think of war. If anyone is interested in reading the manga, it’s also known Read more »
Then try applying to the Liverpool Hope University. They are the first in the UK, and probably the world, to offer such an academic program. Talk about geeky: the formal title of the course is a Masters Degree in The Beatles, Popular Music, and Society. So what will you be in for if you decide to pursue higher studies? The course is divided into four modules of 12 weeks each. It will cover various topics such as the postwar music industry, subcultures, as well as the significance of authenticity and locality. I suppose The Beatles are all very much part of these topics, and they will certainly be placed under Read more »
I have never been a morning person, and waking up before noon has always been a feat for me. While I have been waking up before half of the day is over for quite some time now, it does not mean that I like it or that I have gotten used to it. In fact, every now and then, I get these spells wherein no matter what I do, no matter how many alarms I set, I just CANNOT get out of bed. This has led me to think that I need to take some drastic measures. Enter the Danger Bomb Clock. Read more »
Tough times today I know and by the time you read this, you may have already been thinking of how you can monitor the amount of electricity you use everyday.

You’re not alone, it’s happening worldwide. If you see your cashflow in the possible decline in the next few months, it IS wise to start monitoring money going out. A big chunk of your budget goes to home energy, and you’ve got to begin monitoring that area right Read more »
There are some angles that is best taken from an odd place. Candid shots come to life when you aren’t caught trying to take it. And the spy lens does help you take the shot that can be the good laugh of the party. Okay, okay… it can be used for “other” stuff too. Meant to fit the end of your SLR’s zoom lens, this guy has a secret cut-out on the side and a precision mirror assembly inside. In short, you can shoot left, right, up, or down (it swivels 360 degrees), all while appearing to shoot straight ahead. Price range is about US$85 for the lens and the Read more »

I wonder who woke up one morning and thought “I need to build a machine that can beat out rhythms really fast and really loud on that old drum I’ve got in the garage”? Troy Rogers, Steven Kemper and Scott Barton of Expressive Machines Musical Instruments, that’s who. They’ve created Madi (the Multi Mallet Automatic Drumming Instrument) which uses various brushes and sticks connected to a controller to beat out one heck of a cacophony of noise. Read more »
