Redesign
Big thanks to the hubby for working his magic and updating the look of the site for me. You definitely deserve the AWESOME glass I bought you the other day (I need to take a pic and post it–a fantastically hilarious find from the Village Store). It is literally a huge glass with the word AWESOME printed on it in black letters.
You may have noticed a new column at the right. Those are my Tumblr posts…where I post interesting photos, video and other bits of inspiration I find online.

Tumblrbum
Thanks to Derek, I discovered Tumblr, and have since been horribly addicted. Go here to see my collection of creative inspiration and humor from around the internet. If you have an account, add me to blogs you follow and I’ll do the same for yours!
Link day
Here are some fun science/anatomy-themed links I found the other day, y’all, y’all…
- The Visible Body, a free online 3-D interactive human body model

- Street Anatomy, a blog about medicine, art and design
- Radiology Picture of the Day, displays a photo and corresponding history
- Posemaniacs, featuring free downloadable illustrations of the male and female human body, useful in creating perspective drawings
- Health Education Assets Library, features free downloadable educational resources for the human body
- Nervous System, makers of beautiful nervous system-inspired jewelry
Thanks to Street Anatomy for displaying many of these links.
Stuff I like
I want:

It reminds me of the many many hours I used to spend in the darkroom at school (remember the days before digital?). We had timers attached to the enlargers that looked quite a bit like this. Found here. I’m amazed how reasonably everything is priced. I’m going to have to order some things soon.
Unrelated links day!
As seen on DIYlife.com: Evil Laughter for Beginners. Gives advice on attitude, stance and pitch of the perfect maniacal laugh.
As seen on Notcot.com: The Nomad Yurt by EcoShack. A very cool-looking tent that makes me actually want to go camping…but $8000! Yikes!
Choose a series of photos you like better by clicking on them at LikeBetter.com. “When the brain turns pink, it knows something about you.”
An interesting photo essay: Running from Camera. The photographer set the self timer for two seconds and ran like hell.

A hero for all seasons
Feeling like you have no one to look up to? No mentor? No personal superhero? Well, get off your duff and do something about it! Make your own! Here’s what I made, using the HeroMachine 2.5:

I was mesmerized by the recolor-able fanny pack and molded the rest around that. The other one I made probably shouldn’t be posted here. My friend Chris’ comment was, “That’s a whole lot of guy and not a lot of mini-skirt.” Needless to say, it wasn’t very pretty. If you make one, post a link. I’d love to see what other deranged things can come out of that bit of code.
