HOLY S%$T this is the best thing since the powerbook!

go check out MILK for details.

Lil show im in this week, come check it out!

Sarah Taylor, Much Music VJ and Toronto Party Celebrity had to have emergency brain surgery on Wednesday in Las Vegas. She was there covering all-star weekend ( and I assume Magic) when she fell, and was hospitalized. There was a pressure on her brain, but the reasons are unknown.

From all of us at the schemes, get well hun. We’ll see you soon cat-walking Queen West  !

Found this on myspace, if anyone in Toronto / Chicago / or San Fran is dying to see 300, add BLACK CURTAIN to your myspace top friends, print out your home page and go see the movie Feb21st. The Toronto show is John / Richmond at the paramount.
Get there early as im sure there will be a line, but hey… its free. Doors open at 6:30pm

I love toys. Electronics, cars, motorcycles, and of course plush and vinyl. I just picked up a new toy yesterday, a 19″ widescreen monitor for my lil computer. Check it ( and whats coming from HX4 in the near future) below…

Saw a new type of fan onliine that caught my attention:

Its based on the principle of a hovering hummingbird ! The device has 2 wings which oscillate at around 10 bits/sec. During the oscillation the wings are rotated 2 times to generate a smooth breeze. Very low energy consumption.

I currently work for Virgin Mobile, a Branson owned company, so I found this interesting. Anybody up for the challenge?

LONDON (Reuters) – Airline tycoon Richard Branson announced on Friday a $25 million prize for the first person to come up with a way of scrubbing greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere in the battle to beat global warming.

“Unless we can devise a way of removing CO2 (carbon dioxide) from the earth’s atmosphere we will lose half of all species on earth, all the coral reefs, 100 million people will be displaced, farmlands will become deserts and rain forests wastelands.”

Gore, whose campaign film “An Inconvenient Truth” has helped spread the message, said all science showed something was drastically wrong but that Armageddon was not inevitable.

“We are now facing a planetary emergency. The planet has a fever,” he said. “This is an initiative to stimulate someone to do something that no one knows how to do. This is right at the cutting edge.”

The prize will initially only be open for five years, with ideas assessed by a panel of judges including Branson, Gore and Tickell as well as U.S. climate scientist James Hansen, Briton James Lovelock and Australian environmentalist Tim Flannery.

The winner will have to come up with a way of removing one billion metric tons of carbon gases a year from the atmosphere for 10 years — with $5 million of the prize being paid at the start and the remaining $20 million at the end.

f no winner is identified after five years the judges can decide to extend the period.

“This is the world’s first deliberate attempt at planetary engineering,” Flannery said via videolink from Sydney. “We are at the last moment. Once we reach the tipping point it will have been taken out of our hands.

He said 200 metric gigatons of carbon had accumulated in the atmosphere since the industrial revolution, raising concentrations by 100 parts per million. The challenge was to find ways of bringing that back down again.

Branson rejected suggestions that he, as an airline owner, was being hypocritical in announcing the prize.

“I could ground my airline today, but British Airways would simply take its place,” he said, noting that he was investing heavily in cleaner engines and fuels.
