theres literally hundreds of algorithms for good passwords which people never seem to use. this is an intriguing solution to a problem of bad user passwords. it worked for me in the first go. fairly impressive i must admit. passclicks is a new way to login to websites without users having to remember their old style textual password. just save your password by clicking on 5 points, then login by clicking on those same points with a 7px margin error. fairly ingenious. any developers out here who can explain to me what the limitations of distributing this form of authentication is?

500 simple home do-it-yourself experiments for the nerdy minds from San Francisco’s Museum of Science, Art, and Human Perception.

Their mission is best stated on their about page:

Our focus is on investigating the science behind the ordinary subjects and experiences of people’s lives. The topics themselves provide “hooks” that get people excited about science. Then, when we investigate these topics, we can also look at the historical and social issues surrounding them, thus providing a context for scientific exploration.

okay i have no clue what to say about this. not sure if i should be sarcastic or concerned or intrigued. this link points to some articles and a video about a family in Turkey that walks on all fours and communicates using a “primitive language.” it’s absolutely bizarre.

OoOOooOOoo….I want!!!

in light of a previous post about the banning of abortions in south dakota, a woman named Molly Blythe has posted an abortion manual for the women of south dakota.

In the 1960s and early 1970s, when abortions were illegal in many places and expensive to get, an organization called Jane stepped up to the plate in the Chicago area. Jane initially hired an abortion doctor, but later they did the abortions themselves. They lost only one patient in 13,000 — a lower death rate than that of giving live birth. The biggest obstacle they had, though, was the fact that until years into the operation, they thought of abortion as something only a doctor could do, something only the most trained specialist could perform without endangering the life of the woman.

They were deceived — much like you have probably been deceived. An abortion, especially for an early pregnancy, is a relatively easy procedure to perform. And while I know, women of South Dakota, that you never asked for this, now is the time to learn how it is done. There is no reason you should be beholden to doctors — especially in a state where doctors have been refusing to perform them, forcing the state’s only abortion clinic to fly doctors in from elsewhere.

No textbooks or guides existed at that time to help them, and the equipment was hard to find. This is no longer true. For under $2000, any person with the inclination to learn could create a fully functioning abortion setup allowing for both vacuum aspiration and dilation/curettage abortions. If you are careful and diligent, and have a good grasp of a woman’s anatomy you will not put anyone’s health or life in danger, even if you have not seen one of these procedures performed.
