White robber nabbed wearing African-American ‘Hollywood’ mask.

“The suspect seen in the surveillance photographs and that we were looking for, we believed to be an African-American male. The suspect was actually a male, white, who was wearing an elaborate disguise,” Springdale, Ohio, Police Lt. Michael Mathis told WFTS.

They should let him go just cause it was a good idea. It would’ve been way cooler if he robbed banks dressed like Nosferatu though.

Samurai Wars – custom-made samurai style Star Wars figures. Han Solo looks awesome.

Literally, a web log– tracking the overuse of the word “literally.” My favorite pet peeve. Literally gets thrown around literally way too much. Ok, Mark Twain, we get it, you’re not exaggerating.

Related to an earlier post: Saul Bass-style Tron posters. I like the Master Control Program one, very tiki.

Someone built an actual Turing Machine using a dry erase marker and 1000′ of film. Very cool. A Turing Machine is a theoretical device proposed by Alan Turing in 1936. Theoretically, with an infinite amount of memory (in this case the 1000′ of film), a Turing Machine could compute anything that is computable.

This is pretty cool. The Tron title sequence done in a 60s Saul Bass style. Love that music.
