Imme van der Haak - Beyond the Body (2012)
Artist’s statement:
“My work focuses on altering the human form by affecting its figure with just...
“Photographer helps boy in wheelchair do the impossible.”
For the second time in my life, I’ve pulled a muscle in my back just by eating.
Second time.
Good to know I can repeat my greatest achievement in...
Have a stinky hotel bathroom? Just unwrap one of those coffee bags and put it on the counter.
Sick of weak hotel room coffee? Try brewing it like tea in that silly packet!
Forget to use a coaster? You can remove water rings with whiskey.
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month!!!
Thus far, my sorors and I have been working hard to spread the word, from our “Teal Tuesdays” (teal is the official color for the commemorative month), to sharing statistics and facts with the student body, to our whiteboard campaign. It was great to see my peers willingly join in and express themselves, as we worked to raise awareness about SAAM. :)
This is just a few of the MANY photos we have taken, posted, and shared…and from what I’ve been informed, our movement has been picked up by the Deltas and our sorors at Bethune-Cookman University, as well.

Cheap hairspray will remove pen and marker stains. Spray, let sit, blot and repeat before washing.
Ladies, don’t wear that spangled shirt through security unless you want to get felt up. It sets off the full body scanner like a suit of chain mail.
You’re welcome mama.
IBM creates liquid-based transistors that can process data like the human brain
From VentureBeat:
For decades, the transistor has been the building block of electronic devices, from computers to smartphones. It has seen little change, but a team of researchers at IBM has given the transistor a major makeover, and it may enable the company to build computers that function more like the way the human brain works. If it pans out, IBM could use the technology to build chips that are highly efficient and use much less electrical power. That could lead to a revolution in mobile devices, which today are bound by short battery lives and electrical inefficiency. The whole process is not unlike the charged electrical fluids sloshing around in our brains. If the brain can do it, an artificially crafted material might be able to do it too.
In case you were wondering: We’re all one step closer to becoming part of the machine.
