		<description><![CDATA[Hang up the phone. The sooner, the better. I am a web designer and got an email from a guy about a website asking me to call him the next day. He didn&#8217;t provide a phone number in the email, and stated that his budget is $250,000. Sounds pretty bogus, right? Well, I give him a break and email him back to say that he didn&#8217;t leave a number in the email. So he emails back with a number, and I think ok, well maybe this is a legitimate person who just pushed the zero key too hard when entering his budget. After all he forgot to list a phone number, so it&#8217;s not to much of a stretch. So, I call him back the next day. And this paranoid person answers the phone, &#8220;Hello&#8221;? I say, &#8220;Hello, I&#8217;m looking for A***L&#8221;. &#8220;Who&#8217;s calling&#8221;, the voice asks. &#8220;My name is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hideyuki Nakayama&#8217;s &#8220;A Room in the Glass Globe&#8221;, developed in conjunction with LEVER, is essentially a door knob that allows a viewer to peer into a room with a closed door. The view is a bit clouded, and fish-eye distorted, not a perfect clear view. Although it clearly defeats the purpose of a door, I find it interesting. It reminds me of some of a possible future society, where nothing is private and the government can invade your life anyway and anytime. Sort of like in Minority Report, where you are eye-scanned every 10 seconds, the police can aggressively interrupt your private life at anytime, and personal data is displayed for everyone to see. It&#8217;s currently on display at the Plain People store in Aoyama, Tokyo. Source: Gizmodo]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am happy to say that I liked Serenity: The Shepherd&#8217;s Tale a lot more than Serenity, Vol 1: Those Left Behind. The Shepherd&#8217;s Tale seemed to have a more solid storyline, as if it were always meant for the series but never got the chance to come to fruition. All browncoats have an idea of Shepherd&#8217;s past, having worked with The Alliance, but the surprise for me came with the realization that Shepherd Book&#8217;s childhood was riddled with abuse and abandonment. Which led him to a life of murder, crime, and complete lack of remorse, before his quest for redemption. Also surprising to me was how he came about to be in The Alliance. I always assumed he was a conservative type born on a central planet, sort of like the Doc, who joined The Alliance with the belief that he was contributing to the greater good. And after [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, Halloween may have already past this year, but anytime is the right time for a Tron Suit! Designer Syuzi Pakhchyan has created this awesome Tron: Quorra costume, complete with luminescent striping and &#8220;identity disc&#8221;.  I think this is my all time favorite Halloween costume. Not only is it a great character to mimic, the simplicity behind the design makes it especially appealing to me. According to the article, Syuzi will be posting diy instructions in the next weeks to make your own Quorra suit. So, if you&#8217;re interested, check back at FashioningTechnology for updates. Syuzi says: The costume is made from faux leather and EL Film strips. The luminescent panels are removable, velcored onto the leather vest in order to make the top washable. To be frank, the cutting and re-soldering the EL film was quite tricky to work with but I think I managed to the tame the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t know, but if it can, these would probably be a few inches over the threshold. They&#8217;re called &#8220;Zero Footprint Shirt&#8221;, by designer/artist Dave Rittinger. Although, I don&#8217;t see how they can be &#8220;zero footprint&#8221; since they use glue. Anyway, they do have a certain visual appeal, but definitely too costume-ish for my realistic taste. Maybe a nice leaf-print shirt on organic cotton, from an environmentally conscious facility would be more practical. But, of course, I doubt practicality was the intention here. I like the brownish/purple one the best. Visit Dave Rittinger]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Eye-Fi Pro X2 tethers dslr camera to ipad The Eye-Fi Pro X2 is a great device that allows a photographer to read a DSLR memory card into an iPad wirelessly. That&#8217;s right, no wired connections. The Eye-Fi Pro X2 replaces your standard memory card and allows an interface with your iPad. This is great for live demos, fast quality checks, etc. The Eye-Fi Pro X2 ($130) makes the transfer through any available wireless internet connection. It is also possible for it to directly transfer from the camera to the iPad using the less expensive Eye-Fi Connect X2 ($45), but to do so requires you to &#8220;jailbreak&#8221; your iPad. Additionally, the direct method requires a $20 app from the &#8220;Cydia&#8221; store, and an $8 app from the standard app store. So, you could purchase the Eye-Fi Pro X2 and use it through wi-fi connections on the go, or you could use [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Serenity, Those Left Behind Warning: there are spoilers ahead, if you&#8217;ve not read the comic yet. I am a huge fan of Serenity/Firefly, particularly the series. Although I am not as fanatic as most, I particularly enjoy the storyline and the high level of detail that went into its inception. So, I purchased the comic Serenity, Vol 1: Those Left Behind recently, hoping to find a little treasure of unexplored Serenity/Firefly plot. Well, I&#8217;m sad to say that I am more than a little disappointed in the book. In summary, it&#8217;s like reading a fans fantasy of what the character&#8217;s should have been, rather than what they were. Every personality is over-exaggerated to the point where they are only reminiscent of the series and movie. The lingo is fairly accurate to that of the series, if overly-simplistic most of the time. But the actions and behavior of the crew are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I love cats, I really do. But lets face it, most of them don&#8217;t love us back. These disgusting, yet true to life, nesting dolls really illustrate the most &#8220;endearing&#8221; things about living with cats. And by endearing, I mean barf-inducing daily tribulations my bat-shit crazy cat-lady neighbor would like to immortalize in the form of artsy nesting dolls. The creator says, Do you know a crazy cat lady? Buy her this solid wood set of nesting dolls, and make her day. I’ve painted each by hand, and hand stamped the words “lick everywhere, cough up, ignore, shred, poop” on the back of each doll. I then sealed the dolls with a top coat for protection. Although the creator obviously crafted these with love and intent, I can&#8217;t bring myself to putting them in the &#8220;artwork&#8221; category&#8230; Source Craftastrophe]]></description>
