From Jeff Jacoby of the Boston Globe begins the the story of Rabbi David Wolpe, a former atheist who turned to faith, and wrote a book called Why Faith Matters. It is interesting to experience, in the same week, both Wolpe’s book and Religulous, Bill Maher’s cinematic assault on organized religion. Maher, a caustic comedian and TV host, also turned his back on religion in his teens. “I hated church; it scared me,” he says ...

Filed under: Software, iPhone, App Store, iPod touch, First LookAs a gadget hound and productivity freak, I've tried just about everything over the past 10+ years, both hardware and software. My gadgets have included a Palm IIIe, two Handspring Visors, a Newton 2100, a Newton eMate and a Palm Tungsten E2. They were all nice (some more than others), but each shared deficits of one type or another. Graffiti and easily-lost styluses were two biggies.As ...

合利华引进了一条香皂包装生产线 结果发现这条生产线有个缺陷:常常会有盒子里没装入香皂。 总不能把空盒子卖给顾客啊 他们只好请了一个学自动化的博士后设计一个方案来分拣空的香皂盒。博士后拉起了一个十几人的科研攻关小组,综合采用了机械、微电子、自动化、X射线探测等技术,花了几十万, 成功解决了问题。每当生产线上有空香皂盒通过,两旁的探测器会检测到,并且驱动一只机械手把空皂盒推走。 中国南方有个乡镇企业也买了同样的生产线 老板发现这个问题后大为发火 找了个小工来说“你他妈给我把这个搞定”。小工果然想出了办法:他在生产线旁边放了台风扇,空皂盒都被风吹走了…… _______________________________________________________________________________________________直接访问豆瓣我们爱讲冷笑话小组和miniblog:叽歪冷笑话快来订阅每日三条短小冷笑话吧 : )

Úgy tűnik, egyre gyakrabban fogunk az utcán politikába botlani. Érdemes képben lenni, mert látszólag mindenki ugyanazt akarja! Zöld tudatosság, új politikusok, nyugodt élet. Ki kicsoda? A Lehet Más a Politika nevű civil kezdeményezés (tehát még nem párt) néhány hónapja azzal írta be magát a köztudatba, hogy lézerrel az Országház falára vetítették: LEHET MÁS A POLITIKA. [...]

Say what you will about Ashton Kutcher — What Happens In Vegas, Guess Who, and the list goes on — but it's nice to see the guy's on the side of gay folk, and willing to drill down the entire notion of Proposition 8 so succinctly: That in a country founded on the separation of church and state, we refuse to separate church and state. (Oh, and the religious guy in the beginning is hell-a ...

Download | Play Download | Play After listening to Joe Queenan chide him about the need to "let it go" with harping on Sarah Palin, Bill responds with his "clip" of how Fox News reacted to Obama's victory on election night. I'm still waiting for this to happen on Hannity's show before the next four years are over.

Nakon višečasovnog većanja došao sam do jednoglasne odluke da nešto na blogu mora da se promeni, tj. da se doda. Predstavljam Vam novu kategoriju: Varijacije u kojoj ćete moći da čitate malkice izmenjene tekstove nekih od bisera ex-yu folk muzike. Deskriptivni naziv bi bio “Šta bi bilo da su još više nenormalni”. Za početak jedna pesma koja me je pre par dana oduševila svojom jedinstvenošću (da ne upotrebim neku reč koju bi možda bezobraznici shvatili ...

I had dinner tonight at the Defrag pre-conference "Future of Email" gathering. It was a great crowd that included a bunch of smart people working on interesting email / communication / collaboration stuff. Around dessert, I got into a deeper conversation about features. We were talking about one of the greatest challenges of any software company - how to decide what features to leave out of the next release of your product. We immediately went ...

© EPA/ScanpixКаждый год фотографии из пакистанского Мултана удивляют. В четырехмиллионом городе, одном из старейших религиозных центров в Азии, проходит трехдневный фестиваль мусульман-суннитов, считающийся второй по количеству паломников встречей правоверных (после посещения Мекки во время рамадана). После окончания фестиваля его организаторы предоставляют паломникам несколько бесплатных поездов в разные города Пакистана. © AFP/ScanpixГлавное, настроение у всех хорошее, обратите внимание. Хотя сидеть на крыше или висеть на подножке придется не час и не два, а куда больше.© Scanpix

Translating battle raps from street into suburbian has almost become something like an own Youtube category. Take for example the great Bill Maher’s performance as he translates “Rap into White” (with titles such as “I’m fucking you tonight” (among others). Just recently this wonderful footage has appeared. It shows the pretty agressive (well, it’s battle rap, isn’t it? Ey?) encounter between two guys named Dose and Math or Hydrogen and Boost (no clue, give me ...
