OMGMCFRONTALOT!
We’ve made a ripple on the gentle wave of counter-culture that is Nerdcore HipHop. A few days ago we got a shoutout from BlakLotus, the bassist for one particular MCFrontalot, seen by many as the group of individuals that pioneered the Nerdcore movement. How epic is that? Here’s a little bit of NCL trivia for […]

Dan Alpers, over at CCGamers, brought to our attention the solid work that is going on over there. Yet another example of folks getting together, gaming together and supporting a worthy cause.

Ok, so while tripping along the intertubes today, we heard about this dude who somehow managed to snag a lifetime ban from Apple, because he chose to grab a few iPads for his mates outside of the US. Hmmm, sounds a lot like the time I grabbed a few gen one playstations for friends of […]

Gotta love this – a plastic surgeon named Hank Chien just beat the world record in Donkey Kong. For those of you in the know, there is a subculture of retro-gaming that permeates the land, with its trials and tribulations highlighted in the outstanding documentary, “King of Kong.” If you haven’t seen it, we highly […]

Scrubs and shoes – there’s really not much a guy or gal can say about style on the medical floors. In ‘The Hospitalist Manual’, I talk about how ‘scrub culture’ is invading the last vestiges of decency within medicine, and that, in terms of style, we’re all just become one homogenized assembly line of teal […]

From using gmail and gchat to run meetings, gdocs and wave to develop concept and collaborate on content creation, we can effectively say that we really wouldn’t be were we are without the free and powerful tools that have been made available to […]

OK – saw Avatar. Not on IMAX, as originally planned, but definitely got the 3d experience. Hats off to James Cameron – another epic film with all the JC tropes in place. Groundbreaking visuals – check. Space Marines – check (he basically invented the concept with Aliens). Alien lifeforms – check. Awesome mech action – […]

It’s a bird. It’s a plane. No… it’s a scientific paper explaining Superman’s Super Powers! Okay not really. The paper by Ben Tippet makes a few blatant suppositions and then using them builds a rather a strong hypothesis. Now I don’t claim to understand all of it. However, this is the gist in the author’s […]
