Diebold Leaks 2008 Election Results 196

samzenpus writes "With all the scrutiny that Diebold has received in past few years you'd think that they would be more careful but apparently due to a malfunction in some machines, they have leaked the results to the 2008 presidential race early. Hopefully this will be the nail in Diebold's coffin. Surely we have another company in this country that can run a sham election better."

Build Your Own Neighborhood Vigilante 2

While an old meat smoker atop a three-wheel scooter covered in impact-resistant rubber with attached spotlight, infrared camera, loudspeaker and water cannon, may not be Iron Mans new sidekick, it is working for one neighborhood in Atlanta. Rufus Terrill, a bar owner, got sick of the drug dealers, petty thieves and vandals around his downtown location so he built the 4-foot-tall, 300 pound device to fight crime. The robot crime stopper looks imposing but Rufus says that it is quite harmless and that every criminal is given 20 seconds to comply.

If you're the kind of person who drives across the country a lot and needs to know exactly how far away you are from some naked breasts, tatas, melons, hooters, jugs, funbags, lady lumps, knockers, boobies, gazangas, mamma-jammas, coconuts or Honk Hogans at any given time. The NUDAR GPS system might just be the perfect thing for you. Boobs.

Kimchi in Space 270

rtknox00 writes "For astronauts spending months in space, the smallest touch of home can make a big difference. So when South Korea's first astronaut Ko San boards the International Space Station this April he'll be bringing along a hefty supply of kimchi, the national dish of his native country. While bringing a cherished food on a long journey might seem like a simple act, taking kimchi into space required millions of dollars in research and years of work." Science may never get Thorramatur in orbit.

Nicaraguan Children Get Perfect Season Shirts

Ever wonder what happens to all the 'winner' memorabilia that gets printed for losing teams? It turns out a lot of it is donated to help out poor children in Latin America and Africa. This year hundreds of children in the southern city of Diriamba, Nicaragua will be sporting Patriots perfect season jerseys and caps. Maurice Castillo, coach of the Diriamba city youth football league said, "This is a big deal to these kids. These jerseys mean more to them than you can imagine." Unfortunately this gratitude didn't extend to the scrimmage between the junior league team and the once powerful Pats, where the kids upset the Patriots 21-10.

"The rules were simple: Using no words or images, interpret your Ph.D. thesis in dance form."" The answer to the question is, that some of the brightest minds, have no shame and some of the most challenged feet.

Lickable Ads 4

In an attempt to transform billboards into the number one public health problem in the country, marketers have come up with the idea of lickable ads. Since scratch-n-sniff stickers were such a huge success it seems like the logical next step. Welch's has jumped on the bus and is taking out full-page print ads in People magazine this month that give readers a chance to sample its grape juice by licking the ad. Lawyers for Wonka Industries say they are looking into the ads for possible patent infringement issues and that the snozberries do indeed taste like snozberries.
