To show my support, I thought really hard about going on strike.

Longmont Potion Castle (LPC)
These are just a few videos, but the albums are much better. The best prank / crank caller I've ever heard.

This video will probably be down soon, so if you can't view it try searching for it on YouTube.
Alter the News Monopoly
The news has always been the one thing I could change in this world if I could. It exists to serve as a digest of important issues to people that don't have the time to do the research themselves. If a service like that functions corruptly and imbalanced, then the people watching become puppets in their hands. For example, we may not still be at war if it wasn't for the news.
Almost every news network is pressured by the 'government' and 'corporate sponsors' to push or color specific stories. If your going to get the news, get it from: www.TheRealNews.com because they are one of the few sources that has a business model that can actually function without 'corporate funding'.

Fake Video Game Prank
GRRF - Gaming Response Research Foundation
He pretends to be giving a LAN game demo, but every moment of game footage being shown was crafted & pre-recorded in advance, and everything he does is entirely scripted -- but looks as though he is d ... emonstrating the game live. The audience, of course, is totally unaware of the fakery . . . and are slowly dragged through game demo hell. The original performance is over twenty minutes long; these are the highlights.
9 minutes in is priceless.

Type I, II, and III Civilizations
Michio Kaku, professor of theoretical physics at City University of New York, has a pretty mindblowing article in the latest issue of Cosmos on how super-advanced civilizations across the universe might be able to harness the power of stars and galaxies and survive indefinitely. Using the basic laws of physics as a guide, he posits that there are three levels of advanced civilizations possible based on how they harness their energy: I, II, and III. The bad news: we're not even a I. He generously calls us a 0.7 civilization. Bummer.
While we're stuck burning fossil fuels for energy, a type I civilization would be able to harness all of the energy of their planet in a balance. "Global pollution is a mortal threat for a Type 0 civilization, but not a Type I civilization, which has lived for several millennia as a global force and necessarily achieved ecological balance with its home planet."

- Perhaps the only serious threat to a Type II civilisation would be a nearby supernova explosion, whose sudden eruption could scorch their planet in a withering blast of X-rays, destroying all life. Thus, perhaps the most interesting civilisation is a Type III civilisation, for it is truly immortal. It has exhausted the power of a single star, and has reached out to other star systems. No natural catastrophe known to science has the capacity to destroy a Type III civilisation.
- Faced with a neighbouring supernova, it would have several alternatives, for example altering the evolution of a dying red giant star which is about to explode, or leaving this particular star system and terraforming a nearby planetary system.

Do speed walkers run?
If attacked by a gang of sword wielding ninjas would the worlds fastest speed walker walk or run away? The Japanese, having solved all the worlds other problems, are there to find out.
