My name's Josh and I'm in my third (last) year of Robotics & Automation (at college). I enjoy challenging my Critical Thinking skills and raising my social conciousness. I love intelligent conversations, especially the TED talks.
Of course I keep my sanity in check with a good sense of humour and mellow attitude. I have strong opinions on things like climate change and social responsibility, but I'm also very practical and realistic with my ideas and actions for improving society.
NASA releases its super duper sports drink to the public after 20 years in R&D... Now that's a drink I'd trust to work as advertised and I bet it tastes bad too (it should taste like sweat essentially).
Use of LED lights... They're brighter, more efficient and last longer. The only downside is they don't diffuse as well, but you'll just have to find a model you like.
From the page: "StudiVZ is a Facebook-style operation and itâ€s Germanyâ€s largest web-based social networking site. With the European Parliament elections in sight, the website recently opened up to established political parties for election campaigning. Not for all parties though, as they chose to ban the Pirate Party. "

I think there's two major kinds of piracy that I'm afraid are going to get one solution. There's the bad IP infringers that produce fake drugs/vitamins/toothpaste etc. which I agree Canada can do more about. But the US DMCA has done nothing to curtail online piracy and I think it's the wrong approach for Canada. We need strong fair-use policies and perhaps levies for artists paid through tax or on blank media which can be used to fund Canadian arts and media.
