Google Maps and Video of The Trans-Siberian Railway

February 17th, 2010 by james in Film, Me, Web fodder

You have to have a look at this google site. I caught it via the Guardian

It is the “virtual journey“ marriage of 150 hours of video and mapping the Trans-Siberian Rails.

Going to have to get a nice bottle of vodka, some black bread, dill and cheese and reminisce.

There is no doubt about it. Danny Malone will be famous. Check out his sites, listen to and buy his music to help him along. I know I will be. Haunting lyrics, great singer and knows how to capture difficult emotions with his voice and guitar playing.

Have a look for yourself:

Ok, I may be late to the party… but this kid makes my day every time I watch him play. Check out at least a couple of his vids before you make up your mind if you dig or do not.

Check him out on his site too. The image on his front page shows him in the studio with Papa Roach. This kid is going places. Go internets!

Here is a video piece on him from Paste magazine. Please buy this kids music, I know I am.

(P.S. I’m thinking I should have continued on with the piano lessons.)


Brain Cloud™

Looks like the Brain Cloud™ (not to be confused with The Human Brain Cloud) from Joe vs. The Volcano wasn’t so far-fetched—or have to be terminal.

It is put forth by russian scientist Oleg Shumilov of the Institute of North Industrial Ecology Problems that during periods of heightened geomagnetism people commit experience higher rates of depression and commit suicide more frequently. It sounds reasonable enough.

If what he and other studies have noticed holds up to the scrutiny of the scientific method, the knowledge that human’s internal clocks etc. could be affected by magnetic fluctuations from solar flares could be the difference between being depressed with hope that a change is in sight versus becoming progressively more depressed and eventually suicidal. It is definitely reason enough to warrant more study.
