Neven Mrgan's tumbl: Today's High and Low

Neven Mrgan's tumbl: Today's High and Low:

mrgan:

Here’s a typical screenshot of Apple’s Weather app. It shows the current temperature and the forecast for today’s high and low temperatures. (Let’s ignore all the other data for the moment.)

Notice anything? Today’s “low” is predicted as 43º, and the high as 61º. Yet it is currently cooler…

Mixing physics, engineering, paper and what looks like some seriously rewarding folding, cutting and taping DIY, Andrew Gatt builds incredibly sturdy paper roller coasters out of heavy paper strips. Yes! Only paper and tape was used to make this paper roller coaster… and it almost reaches a two-story high ceiling!

I included just about every feature that I could think of when I designed this roller coaster. It has a switch, three funnels, a half pipe, track hidden inside the structural beams and columns, a jump, many spirals and loops, switchbacks, hill and valley sequences, and stairs. It’s 16’4” (4.97 meters) tall, yet its base is only 13” (33 cm) by 12.5” (31 cm). It’s free standing, so it does not lean against anything for support. It weighs 2 pounds and 10 ounces (1190 grams). Besides the cardboard base, it is made of only stiff paper and tape. Every marble takes between 90 and 115 seconds to reach the end.

Andrew has more videos of his roller coasters (one at the 2012 World Maker Faire where visitors helped built it), as well as templates for sale and a gallery of student-made projects at PaperRollerCoasters.com.

Thanks, Andrew.

This is HUGE!

Panoramas just got a big new view on Tumblr. Try it on your blog, the Dashboard, and the latest iPhone/iPad app too!

This works automatically for super-wide (3:1) high-res (1000px wide) photo uploads. And theme developers can now style panoramas in Tumblr themes with the {block:Panorama} tag.

“I never could have imagined that my life would end up this way. I didn’t think I’d end up having my own show, I didn’t think I’d end up being in movies, I didn’t think I’d have a talk show, I didn’t think that I would be a CoverGirl. I just thought I’d be a closeted gay comedian wearing parachute pants. I guess what I’m saying is- aim low.”

- Ellen DeGeneres

I couldn’t help but contrast Ellen’s experience and initial ambitions with the experience of fellow comedian, Jim Carey, who famously wrote himself a future check of $10M for “Acting Services Rendered”.

Two very different paths, very similar destination.

We often hear stories of people who start companies to change the world or make a dent in the universe. And that’s wonderful, and noble and it, occasionally, works according to that plan and that ambition.

Then there are others who start with no grand plan, no visions of world domination. Maybe they just hate having a boss, or have some itch to scratch.

Whether it’s Ellen or Jim or World Dominator or Boss Hater they all share something in common.

They started.
