Origami hang glider

Surf an Origami Hang Glider on a Wave of Air

Very cool – “When learning to fly—before you use your hands to create the air wave— finding something small that can be held with one hand, like a breakfast cereal box, works better than something big and bulky.”

japan wave pool

Surfing – Wave Pool Japan

“Water is sucked up into vertical storage tanks and then dropped, somewhat like a toilet flushing, to form a downward surge. The released water compresses and rebounds off the bottom of the pool, surging upwards and forwards. When coupled with the abrupt bottom contours of the pool, this surge forms a jacking 6-foot wave with groundswell-like strength. Surfable waves up to 8 feet and a 10-foot closeout are possible, although surfing quality suffers beyond the optimum 6-foot size.” Found Via Kim Gee-wing.

GASLAND Trailer 2010

GASLAND Trailer 2010

“It is happening all across America and now in Europe and Africa as well – rural landowners wake up one day to find a lucrative offer from a multinational energy conglomerate wanting to lease their property. The Reason? In America, the company hopes to tap into a huge natural gas reservoir dubbed the Saudi Arabia of natural gas. Halliburton developed a way to get the gas out of the ground—a hydraulic drilling process called fracking—and suddenly America finds itself on the precipice of becoming an energy superpower.”

“But what comes out of the ground with that natural gas? How does it affect our air and drinking water? GASLAND is a powerful personal documentary that confronts these questions with spirit, strength, and a sense of humor. When filmmaker Josh Fox receives his cash offer in the mail, he travels across 32 states to meet other rural residents on the front lines of fracking. He discovers toxic streams, ruined aquifers, dying livestock, brutal illnesses, and kitchen sinks that burst into flame. He learns that all water is connected and perhaps some things are more valuable than money.” – Quoted from the Youtube Page.

Verdun shell shock

Verdun – Shell Shock

“In World War I, shell shock was considered a psychiatric illness resulting from injury to the nerves during combat. The horrors of WWI trench warfare meant that about 10% of the fighting soldiers were killed (compared to 4.5% during World War II) and the total proportion of troops who became casualties (killed or wounded) was 56%. Whether a shell-shock sufferer was considered “wounded” or “sick” depended on the circumstances.”

“The large proportion of WWI veterans in the European population meant that the symptoms were common to the culture, although it may not have become popularly known in the US. Many generals considered those who suffered shell shock to be cowards, and a large number were executed.” More info here Here and an alternate video Here.
