New form of punishment for sex offenders being pioneered in Houghton

This guy was standing on the sidewalk of the lift bridge in an easter rabbit costume just waving at traffic for hours. Blew off class to get these shots. He's also been spotted dressed up as Santa during the winter (also standing out there for hours).

Toroidal Electromagnet: Mark I

We haven't gotten a chance to test it yet, but we will first thing tomorrow morning. This baby packs a fuckin' punch with its 771 turns of magnet wire. Took me more than 3 hours to wind it. We're hoping for a force output on the order of 30 Newtons, but we're using an unverified theoretical model so we're not quite sure what it will do. Hopefully it won't give us 1 N with like 15 Amps running through it lol.

Our next revision will have something like 1600 turns. That will give us a force output thats almost 4 times greater than what this one will give. So, now the hard part begins.... testing and validation... if we get the whole thing up and running tomorrow I'll post a picture. Theres a pretty serious design review going on tomorrow where some prof. who knows nothing of your project basically will grade you on how well you know your stuff and how well your project is turning out. We best get moving if we want it to work by 5pm tomorrow (thats when our review is schedule).

Russian April Fools

Some pranksters planted an explosive on this statue of Lenin in the middle of St. Petersburg. I like the picture of the guy with his head sticking out of Lenin's ass.

Puddin' Pops

God... I'm bored, its a Friday night, and I have no money. So here it is, the reason I made this post. Some may say hes a big stupid doo doo head, but I think Bill Cosby is fuckin funny. Ok, maybe hes just crazy, but srsly... that shit is funny.

Also, wtf is with the guy in that picture? Srsly.

EDIT: Heres the remix. I'm gonna cut the first half and make it my ringtone lol.
