Jedi Mind

This amazing technology, developed by Jedi Mind, Inc., allows the user to interact with the computer and other machines through the power of the mind!



The technology involves the use of a wireless headset, which detects brainwaves on both the conscious and non-conscious level. This revolutionary neural processing technology makes it possible for computers to interact directly with the human brain.

Surely enough George Lucas has sued 'Jedi Mind' for $5 million for alleged trademark infringement.

Saw Guillaume watching this video in Le Monde's article "Pour George Lucas, la guerre des clones aura bien lieu", so kudos to him for reading it regularly.

Thanks to Aws for this "Awsome" "audibilization" ;)

Indian Pole Dancing

A very interesting pole dancing competition in India ...



The dance is called Mallakhamb (or Malkhamb) and is a traditional Indian sport in which a gymnast performs feats and poses while hanging from a vertical wooden pole or rope. Mallakhamb also refers to the pole used in the sport.
