Two more days

Two more days then it comes. The race. Now just any race, the sunburst, the race I've been training for 2 years when I was first introduced to this fine sport. The pain, the agony, the sunburn, the 11 and 12 pm nights when I was running, the time I spent running on the 4th of July and other vacations, IT WILL PAY OFF NOW. I've been training hard for the last year, I've run 35 miles during spring break to enhance my form and condition. I am ready. I am ready to win. Rejoice not against me O my enemy, for when I fall I will arise.

Come celebrate with me. The adventure begins today.

If you can not run a marathon, run a half, if you can't run a half run a 10 k if you can't run a 10 k do a 5k, if you can't run a 5k walk it, You'll be glad you did. I am. Thats how it started for me, a simple 5 k walk (That
I ran). Maybe I always have loved running, but never knew it.

As Sam says "You do not like them. So you say. Try them! Try them! And you may. Try them and you may, I say." So it is with running. Warning you might get hooked--- by a bull.





Strategy is everything. Mind versus body. The ultimate test. The marathon.

Very funny MEN IN COATS

Enjoy the weekend!

So I'm really busy this summer, but I'll try to keep the site interesting and entertaining. Happy memorial Day to all of our troops both at home and abroad. Have to go to work but I thought this cartoon was funny and maybe you'll like it too.

The Ultimate How to Guide

I started a new blog entitled The Ultimate How to Guide. I will answer ANY How do I? question. Free answers to the worlds toughest questions.

To kick it off I will use some of my own random scenarios.
The first four will cover: How to invade planet Earth with a spaceship, a swiss army knife, and a playstation 2; How to cook food in the jungle using magnets; How to fight a bear using only sticks; and How to swim under water indefiantely.

You can visit the site through this link: Ultimate Guide

or through my profile: The Videoist

Sumbitions welcome.


This is the story of why I started it.
It all began when I took a chemistry class where I learned that acetone can dissolve styrofoam. From there I decided that my video blog needed an exciting video promoting it, and something that still would be fun to watch 10 years in the future.
See "http://runalot.blogspot.com/2007/05/styrofoam-versus-wind-wwater-and-fire.html"

So then I realized that information is only one piece of the puzzle. The internet is chock full of information, yet something or someone needs to make it usefull, such as google. The organization of information is the next step to facilitating dramatic change. Next is extrapolation of the data, interperting into something usefull.Most times we do this automatically. For instance when we look up a certain word in google such as fashion and are directed to a more specific site such as forever21 then we say hey that shirt looks spectacular because... using previous information.... I'd certainly look amazing in it, so I'll buy it.

Does the automatic integration of information destroy great ideas? We are limited by what we know. Stoping to review first we have the collection of information, then the organization which enables a precise selection, then integration with other information leading to a decision to combine ideas.

Collect
Eliminate
Integrate
Decide

The last step is where the how-to idea fits in. How do you combine the data? and in what ways? So you want to build a new ultra-efficent engine. What is the first step? The 23rd?

This site will investigate The Mechanics of How-To create a 6 cycle engine that runs on water and gets 40 percent more power. Through this we will understand how the assembling of information takes place. For interest we will also examine another engine that runs on very explosive hydrogen gas (prototypes made), and a thrid engine that runs on pure air. (in testing phase, it invovles cosmic rays being transferred into energy through the absorbtion of radiation.)

The infamous pic

Okay Take a look at this pic. What do you think? How about thinking that is supports underage drinking?



You should know that she is 27. Now what do you think? How about after you find out she wasn't able to graduate from college because she posted this pic on myspace.com?

Now you can fully believe that idiots control the university system. The same system that tries to tell the world who is important and valuable because they have been taught by a professor.

we OWN the internet, goodbye copyright laws

In case you don't know the story behind this. I'll give you a breif synopsis rather then making you work to find it. Which isn't hard. Here are the numbers=

It all goes back to digg.com

By using special software, this code disables the encryption in HD-DVD's so they can be played on any machine. The protection known as the Advanced Access Content System (AACS). That code disables "protection", certain people don't like that fact and told digg.com to remove it. So digg.com tried to remove every digg post with those numbers. They found out they couldn't and then decided they wouldn't. Digg.com SUPPORTS FREEDOM! God Bless them! You can't stop the internet. Specifically the transfer of information through the internet. Unless your google that is, but that wouldn't happen right??

Today we win.

Styrofoam Versus Wind, Water and Fire

Heel Strike Pressure Sensor

I am looking for a machine that can measure how hard different parts of your feet hit the ground (how much enegry they are having to absorb) and can display it in a color graph in the shape of the foot in question. If you see something like that be sure to let me know. I think it would provide invaluable information on how to design a custom shoe. Basically it would be conducting a footprint analysis of the gait motion.
