Wii Theremin
It’s not actually a Theremin, as he uses LEDs attached to his gloves, but it’s still cool. Interestingly enough, Web Cam Theremin is still one of the ‘long tail’ hits I still get regularly on my blog. I love you, Internets.

Comics under legal assault
If you own any copies of the Sandman series, you should take a look at this right away. Might want to donate to the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund also.
Excellent analogy

“Put bluntly, it’s like this. If my four fingers are animals and my thumb is a plant, man is at the tip of the middle finger, furthest away from the heart. The lower you are on the hand, the more primitive you become. If you trace them, the veins all converge around the wrist. Bacteria and microbes are halfway up the arm; at this point it’s hard to distinguish between plants and animals. But there are things even lower than that. Up the arm, past the shoulder. Here are the mushi, the midorimono, the green things. Close to being mere essences of life, their shapes and essences are vague. Some can see them, some can’t. A lot of so-called “ghosts” are actually mushi.”

“In all, with Barack Obama’s promises to cut taxes, merit pay for public school teachers, and renewed offshore drilling, I would say he simply ran the most successful moderate Republican presidential campaign since Dwight Eisenhower.”
- Mike Duncan, Chairman of the Republican National Committee
It’s not entirely true, of course, but it’s a stark contrast to the wing-bat socialist accusations of just a few days ago.
Woohoo!

“At one point, a group goes on a tour of Mt. Everest to attempt to exorcise the ‘Queen of Heaven, who prevents the prayers of Catholics and Moslems from reaching God’ (the Queen of Heaven is a title of the Holy Virgin Mary–claiming the ‘Queen of Heaven’ is a demon is about as anti-Catholic as you can get, and directly equates Catholicism with Satanism), and at another, it’s claimed they essentially assassinated Mother Theresa via imprecatory prayers; in another ‘spiritual mapping’ trip, the Knesset in Israel is declared to be the ‘mind of Satan on earth.’ The US, alas, is also not alone–anti-Masonic imagery is brought up (due to the Founding Fathers having been Freemasons) and ‘exorcisms’ have been performed on the city of Washington, DC under the claim the US–and Constitutional rule respecting the freedom of religion–was founded via a ‘false covenant made to Baal.’”

Wow. How could she justify taking an oath to defend a false covenant made to Ba’al? Incidentally, Joel’s Army, the group being discussed (to whom Palin has connections going way back), was also the group seen earlier this week praying over the golden Bull statue on Wall Street.
