How to use your car by remote control

With the proper hardware it is not much more difficult to remote or computer control a full size car than it would a small model-car. The challenge with a large gas-powered vehicle is the force with which to activate some of these elements which far exceeds this of the heaviest-duty RC servos. This is particularly the case of the brake and steering activation.

Bonsai Potato

According to The Art of the Bonsai Potato, Bonsai Potato is "the art of nurturing the artistic vision of a potato through various forms of encouragement and manipulation." To me, a Bonsai Potato can be so much more.

I find that the 30 to 45 seconds that I spend trimming, whispering encouraging remarks or just admiring my Bonsai Potato are the most relaxing moments of my day. I get a sense of accomplishment and camaraderie when friends and family look at my potato and say "...um...wow," and I always have plausible evidence for an insanity plea, "just in case."

Operation TOFTC

"First, a military operation would not be a military operation unless we used an acronym, in this case, Op T.O.F.T.C., or as we say 'To-FutK'. Essentially we organize, discreetly, single girls to frequent bars and restaurants near military bases and, well, Take One for the Country, with members of the military, especially those about to go overseas". As McDonough describes it, TOFTC volunteers work in secrecy, "We're not out there with signs or badges. We are completely covert, you could not tell a TOFTC member from anyone else in the bar, and that is essential to the success of the Op".

Making Homemade Soda

The basic recipe that our family uses is to dissolve 1/8 teaspoon of yeast in a coffee cup of warm water for about 5 minutes. Yeast should be fresh and the water should be about baby bottle warm (98-110 degrees F). Too little yeast will not yield enough carbonation, too much will give the soda a "yeasty" taste and might burst your soda bottles.

So I was in Washington, DC, with Dennis after the Federal Webmasters Workshop in July 1995, and we checked out Union Station, and happened upon this cool display of Yugo Art. It was the product of an assignment to an art class at the School of Visual Arts in NYC, wherein they were asked to take a Yugo and transform it into something else. The professor in charge of the class was Kevin O'Callaghan.

Update on the Beatles and Mind Control

The phenomenon of the Beatles was not a spontaneous rebellion by youth against the old social system. Instead it was a carefully crafted plot to introduce by a conspiratorial body which could not be identified, a highly destructive and divisive element into a large population group targeted for change against its will. New words and new phrases--prepared by Tavistock(1)-- were introduced to America along with the Beatles. Words such as "rock" in relation to music sounds, "teenager," "cool," "discovered" and "pop music" were a lexicon of disguised code words signifying the acceptance of drugs and arrived with and accompanied the Beatles wherever they went, to be "discovered" by "teenagers." Incidentally, the word "teenagers" was never used until just before the Beatles arrived on the scene, courtesy of the Tavistock Institute for Human Relations.

The Deadly Follies of the Stick Figure Warning-Man

You know those warning signs you always see with the stick man falling down or being crushed or otherwise incurring bodily harm? That's me. I posed for those pictures. My entire purpose in life is getting hurt so we can put up signs to protect people who are stupid and/or illiterate. Is it really worth it to go through all this pain and humiliation just to ensure the safety of someone who doesn't realize that if they stand under a parking garage gate long enough it will eventually hit them in the head. Aren't we better off without these people?

Insultingly Stupid Movie Physics

Technonerds go to movies strictly for entertainment, and of course, the most entertaining part comes after the movie when they can dissect, criticize, and argue the merits of every detail. However, when supposedly serious scenes totally disregard the laws of physics in blatantly obvious ways it's enough to make us retch. The motion picture industry has failed to police itself against the evils of bad physics. This page is provided as a public service in hopes of improving this deplorable matter.

Medical Histories of the Presidents

On January 13, 2002, Bush lost consciousness while sitting on a couch in the White House, watching a football game. His head hit the floor, resulting in an abrasion on his left cheekbone and a small bruise on his lower lip. The incident was blamed on a combination of (a) Bush not feeling well in previous days, and (b) an improperly eaten pretzel. Their combined effect was to slow the President's heart. (The description suggests a vaso-vagal attack.) The period of unconsciousness was brief [12].

Eyewitness History

"As we stood upon those mighty bowlders, and looked down into the chasms between, we beheld the dead lying there just as they had fallen during the struggle. From the summit of Little Round Top, surrounded by the wrecks of battle, we gazed upon the valley of death beneath. The view there spread out before us was terrible to contemplate! It was an awful spectacle! Dead soldiers, bloated horses, shattered cannon and caissons, thousands of small arms. In fact everything belonging to army equipments, was there in one confused and indescribable mass."

Alfred Hitchcock Mosaics

Alfred Hitchcock was born at 517 High Road, Leytonstone, in the east of London on 13th August 1899. To mark 100 years since this event, and to commemorate the director's link with the area, 17 mosaics have been installed in the entrance corridors of Leytonstone tube station. They were made in vitreous glass tesserae, using the reverse method, by Greenwich Mural Workshop. The work required some 80,000 tiles, took seven months to complete, and the final installation took place during April 2001. Amongst the scenes from films, there are also images of Leytonstone, portraits of Hitchcock and even trademark cameo roles. Leytonstone is on the Central underground line, five stops east of Liverpool Street - go see them if you can! For everything you ever need to know about the man, go to "Alfred Hitchcock - The master of suspense"

Who is that with Jeremy?

Welcome to my Web Site. My name is Jeremy and I was born on March 30, 2002. When I was 3 months old, my mommy went back to work and my daddy became a stay-at-home dad. One day he took me to the opening of a store and we met the Barber Brothers, Tiki and Ronde, who play football. Daddy took a picture of me with them and that is how this all began.

Daddy figured it would be fun to take pictures of me with well-known people, and it has been fun! We have met lots of interesting people and they have been very nice to me (and to my dad).

An Amazing Car Commercial

Six hundred and six takes it took, and if they had been forced to do a 607th it is probable, if not downright certain, that one of the film crew would have snapped and gone mad.

On the first 605 occasions something small, usually infuriatingly minute, went just slightly awry and the whole delicate arrangement was wrecked. A drop too much oil there, or here maybe one ball-bearing too many giving a fraction too much impetus to the movement. Whirr, creak, crash, the entire, card-house of consequences was a write-off and they had to start again.

Honda's latest television advertisement, a two-minute film called "Cog", is like a fine-lubricated line of dominoes. It begins with a transmission bearing which rolls into a synchro hub which in turn rolls into a gear wheel cog and plummets off a table on to a camshaft and pulley wheel. All the parts are from the new Honda Accord - £16,495 to you, guv'nor, or £6 million if you want to pay for the advertising campaign. And what an amazing ad campaign it is, too.

Early Television Museum

As a teenager I worked in a television repair shop after school, and sometimes worked on 1940's sets such as the RCA 630. In 1999 I sold my cable television business, was looking for something to do with my time, and decided to collect early television receivers. At that time I was unaware that television existed before World War Two. However, shortly after deciding on my new hobby, a RCA TRK-12 appeared on Ebay. I bought it and restored it. Over the next year I met many of the collectors in the United States. Most were very willing to show me their collections, but their sets were in their basements or attics where they were difficult to see.

As my collection grew, I began to run out of space to display it. I then came up with the idea of start
