Fake or Foto?
Today we're presented with images in movies, on TV, and in the press that are of such good quality we don't even think to consider whether the picture is of something that exists in reality or if it was generated by computer software. Movies can be considered as being at the high-end of the range of uses for computer generated imagery that mimics real-life, but there are many more day-to-day examples that challenge our ability to tell what's real and what's not.
Spend a few minutes with our reality check and see if you can tell the difference...

Watersking World Speed Record Broken, with a Helicopter
A Mexican man Fernando Reina Iglesias recently set a new world record for barefoot water skiing. The bar is now set at a rather amazing 153mph, breaking the previous record set by an American, Scott Pellaton of 135mph in 1989.
Catch the video after the jump, this article was originally reported on by The Telegraph website. Good work sir, you crazy crazy man.

Film of the Week : The 6th Day
2000, what a year, and this is why. How many flims have had the same concept as this now, not one but two of our beloved Arnold Schwarzenegger. Can Arnie [Adam Gibson] stop maniacal clones taking over the world, I think we all know the answer. But it is great fun watching how he does stop them, you guessed it, diplomacy. Enjoy the trailer especially the very last quote of it, oh the declarative nature of things.

Rise of the Planet of the Apes
Today released in the UK one of the greatest all time Sci-Fi classics is rehashed. Hopefully the memory of Tim will leave us and be replaced with something fantastic. Yes there is risk that it may be terrible, however it is still potentially gonna brilliant, that’s what I'm holding out for.
Now a little short featuring, well Golum, Enjoy.

Film of the Week : Wall•e

Ive got to admit for a start i was not convinced by Wall•e. I was so wrong, this film is awesome. If you haven’t seen this film just go and watch it.
Pixar paint a bleak and dystopic future, in a lovely colourful way. Some what of a happy anomaly, also for the first half of the film there is almost no talking.

Homemade Atomic Reactor
Maybe it's because I have a hangover that feels like a bear is scooping out my brains and aliens are doing intrusive tests on what remains of me but this amuses me somewhat.
A Swedish man, Richard Handl has attempted to create his own nuclear reactor in his own home. He acquired the materials on the internet and said he had hoped he might split an atom. (See one of the images he posted on the web of his efforts below)
The authorities got onto his fiendish plot when he contacted the Swedish radiation authority to check if what he was doing was legal. What is clear is that the police have stopped a supervillain in the making. Holy Macceroni, maybe the police raid was accompanied by some crazy graphics of words like BAM!!! WHAM!!!! SMACK!!!! TWOOOH!!!
We will never know but the whole caper might just as well have involved Roger Moore aggressively seducing the nearest lady whilst making 1970's innuendo to a bald apparently headless man who strokes his bejewlled pussy...cat.

The Gerber Steady : As Advertised by Bear
The Gerber Steady its a tripod with a knife attached, or a knife with a tripod attached, or a ....
Either way despite the practicality and terrifying advertising in the form of Bear Grylls, check out the Gerber site. Frankly I'm amazed they have a "Essential" knives section.
Good idea it may work out, but I'm still scared by the fact someone joined these two items.

Da Feng's Flake

Now we are getting somewhere. Whilst this is essentially impossible it and the BMW GINA are a step in the right direction. Beautiful modular vehicles, my passion for this, TRON has a lot to answer for. Da Feng congratulations sir, a fantastic concept. Whilst the video render is not as good as the concept art, lovely idea, Enjoy.

A robot that can fly like a bird
Is this the beginning will razorbeak be here soon?
TED State "Plenty of robots can fly -- but none can fly like a real bird. That is, until Markus Fischer and his team at Festo built SmartBird, a large, lightweight robot, modeled on a seagull, that flies by flapping its wings."
