Some fascinating looks at futuristic projects, a searchable database.

Listening to the Motley Fool Radio Show today, I can't help the excitement I feel for iRobot (a more than interesting reference to Asimov), with their interesting household robots...

For those who love insects, good news. A museum is opening in Tokyo.

虫が大好き人で、いいニューズがあります。　東京にはくじつ官が開けます。

Not sure why this fascinates me so, perhaps because Japan is reevaluating its place in the world. Otokotachi no Yamato, a film about the famous battleship. Seems like a lot of shots with cherry blossoms...

興味があるんですが、しりません。　日本のたいどは世界でまだ見るかもしれません。。。　男たちの大和, 有名な戦艦（せんかん）映画です。　たくさん桜を入れました。

Yes, I know it's academic, but...
Robotic Programs are just amazing.

You just forget how crazy people can be.

Then, pulling your head up from your book, it all plays out in front of you. Levels of insanity and tension too much for any movie. Last night, Red Line to North Hollywood - who would it be that took the confrontation to blows?
The hardcore gangmember, a little too fresh from lockup?
The Polliannish self proclaimed "Dutch girl" that wore an outfit that suggested "for the prostitute who's looking for comfort?"
The mismatched African-American man toting a large pink Igloo, who handed out Valentines and made a remark about the ample chest of the "Dutch girl?"
The stuttering and furious rascist, spouting sexual insult and eager for action?
The Latino man standing next to him that gave a cagey negative to the gangbangers questioning about gang affiliation?

It could be any of us, really, but luck of the draw that only psyches were injured, neh?

Another blog, another day. Seriously, though, some amazing things can be seen at Drawn, where illustrators line up...
