Beauty of Paper Cutting and Effects

This is really nice. Paper Cutting at its best.

Wind Powered Machines

This is rather fantastic. This person seems to be an artist, creating sculptures,... innovative ones that can move by themselves simply by harnessing the wind. No man-made energy power needed.



Great. I wonder will he be able to craft out a real machine or vehicle for this purpose. I guess it takes a huge amount of wind to power the invention, hence it explains why he choose to demonstate his machine at the beach. But then again, I guess a small servo motor is all he needs to power his robotic vehicle.

Truly brillant.

If you can loop faster than your opponent ...

I always feel that Rabbits are not quite the smart kind of animals. They spent most of their waking hours nibbling on grasses and hiding in their smelly little burrow. In most documentaries, almost any encounter between the rabbit and other creatures or predators, will normally see the helpless rabbits ending up as the losers. One can almost expect and predict the typical documentary scene of the rabbits, fleeing away at high speed, at the slightest disturbance of the scene by a probable predator, and sometimes losing their life after a short chase. I mean rabbits seems to be born losers. They look cartoonish and don't even utter a single roar, growl, or at least, a meow, to protray or at least, try to disguise themselves as a mean creature of the wild.

However, it seems that not all rabbits will prefer to be on the receiving, and losing end. This rabbit seems to be fed-up with being a loser in a conflict relationship, and goes on the offensive. And boy, when it attacks, it really attacks. Never mind if the opponent is dangerous, and extermely venomous, seems cunning, a probable experienced veteran hunter. The cute little bunny is hell bent on raising his point and protecting its turf.


This rabbit seems to bring to us, a couple of points worth our consideration in any conflict realtionship.

It doesn't really matter if one looked stupid and passive; sterotyped to be the nice, tamed, obedient and quiet guy next door, bounded by contstraints and people's expectations to live with the invisible behaviour markers, etc, etc. It seems that the actual creature, the true self, is really powered by what goes on the inside... and most people (or in this case, creature) had their insides in a constant whirlpool of emotions, which affects and changes their perception and outlook of the current situation. In other words, in a showdown, a sparring partner may exhibit the same physical appearance, or even body language; but within the body, the mind probably is a few step ahead, and the previous state of emotions that is associated with the current physical appearance and body language, may had been refined and changed. This may appear to the spectator as some kind of a rare occasion where the person or creature seems to experience some kind of snap in their brain, and suddenly takes on another mental and emotion posture, exhibiting characteristics and capabilities that one will never think possible.

When the time comes for one to go on the offensive. Simply be dumb and just attack. Upon hitting sufficient considerations and reaching a comfortable consense within one's decision making system, why continue to worry and be burden into a endless cycle of analysing, considering, and brainstorming on the old decision again? Simply carry out the execution of the task at hand and analyse, consider, and perceive the next step. Note, the next step, and not the previous, executed step. In other words, don't worry about what was executed, and how well it fits into society's and people's perceived expectations of your previous and current step. Simply look at the situation, the target, the opponent, and react to it. React to his counterattack, analyse his train of thoughts, and extrapolate on what he will do in the next step. Then refined your position, your posture, your chain of thoughts, your energies and center of gravity, and throw your attack again. If one is above to perform the above cycle much faster than the opponent, pretty soon the opponent will be forced to react to your directed attacks, like a losing tennis player running left and right of the court just to catch the ball. One will be able to bleed the opponent dry of energies, resources, and the will to fight.

This seems to be what was happenning in the Vietnam war, and is happening in the current Iraq invasion and occupation by the US. In both situations, we see a giant constantly reacting and losing resources and enegries. Rushing around and bombing empty jungles and civilian buildings. Making mistakes as it rumbles around. Depleting the armory, treasury, and the emotions to fight. It will be just a matter of time before the towel is thrown in.

Huh, the little rabbit certainly summarises the way of the world.

Inflatable Privates - The Japanese are crazy as ever.

This is such a crazy product. So crazy that I got to buy a box to inspect closer. It is sold at the Daiso at Vivocity. Hmmm... not sure if they got it in the IMM branch.

Apparently, it is some sort of inflatable "penis" that is shaped and look like a swan's head. There is an sticky double sided tape at one end, for one to position it errr.... on one crotch. (Ok you dont like to place it on your crotch as in the pictures? There is no stopping you if you want to place it on your forehead like a unicorn.)

Upon pasting the product in the desired position, all you need to do is to squeeze somewhere near the balls position (please take care to squeeze the correct ball). And the next thing you know, the swan inflates by itself! And gets erected in no time! Good for those who are desperate or ladies who are in need of such experience. Hmmm....

Besides this innovative product, there is also another equally cute product as well. A set of inflatable breasts! Yes. The instructions at the back of the box has a couple of drawings of a smiling man putting two egg like pad on to his breast. And when he is in the midst of his colleagues, he just squeezed them, and walah! They inflate, and he surprise his colleagues with his newly "implanted", air bag breast.

Not bad for those ladies who wants to "show off" for a short duration, eg, party, that D&D, etc...
