There have been similar projects in the past, but none actually produced such a controlled flame or came with building instructions as detailed as Everett Bradford's Prometheus Device. And while I know that Pyro technically controls fire rather than actually making it, short of mutant genetics, this project is as close as we'll get. And it's damn awesome. [Prometheus via Make]

This is the bluetooth transmitter attached to my camera. No more irritating ear plucks whenever I move or put down my camera.

I'm squeezing a 15k maintenance at dealersip before work...can't confuse them with Speedy Lube for oil changes! I stopped in and didn't want to wait nearly an hour turnaround for am oil change, but when I drove away, I reconsidered and came back watching the staff smiling and chuckling. Hey, I needed the few minutes to make the best decision.
Maybe, next time, Speedy Lube during lunch.--

In my apartment, workers replaced all the windows. So, I setup the free Skype with two accounts, and at home, logged in and set it to auto-answer and turn on my webcam. I also turned off my monitors and speakers. At work, I just logged in with my other account and watched and listened to the room!

I pay my water bill through NPW Services Corp...My account has my old number. I click on “Update My Info”, and although my cursor (in Safari and Firefox...nope, I won’t check with IE) becomes an insert cursor in the field for my telephone number, I can’t modify the entry. At the bottom of the page, there is text stating “...contact your Community Manager to update the information...”. WHY?
