Scarface A Cilds Play
Here's an idea, let's have a bunch of children re-enact one of the most violent and drug-filled movies ever filmed and put it on as a school play. This is either the greatest idea ever, or the greatest idea ever. Whatever the case, I want my children to go to this school if for no other reason than it may help them learn how to turn a bitch out.

The Alfa Romeo Pandion is a 2+2 sports coupe, and like the eagle it is named after, this concept car folds up its scissor doors like wings. How high? Try 12 ft. Why? “Glamour,” stated Bertone design director, Mike Robinson. The 53-year-old U.S.-born Robinson, who previously worked for Fiat, just stepped into his new position last autumn. He motivated his young and talented team to create a true Bertone concept for Alfa Romeo in less than five months. And not only does this concept look fabulous, but it also incorporates some remarkable details.
The Pandion’s mission is to shift Alfa Romeo into the future as the brand celebrates its 100th birthday this summer. For as beautiful (and dynamically superb) as the Alfa 8C sports car might be, stylistically it’s old fashioned, as it refers back to the Giulietta Sprint that Bertone once produced. With the Pandion, the typical Alfa face gets an LED shape of the future. The rear, on the other hand, which is made up of hundreds of blades, is for show only.
Styling is one thing, new technologies another. While the Pandion uses a shortened Maserati GT chassis and its 444-bhp V-8 drivetrain as its backbone, many of the body parts are made out of carbon-fiber. With the Pandion’s claimed curb weight of less than 2645 lb., it’s easy to imagine the performance improvement, along with fuel mileage and emissions.
The Pandion’s cabin is spacious, with ultra-thin bucket seats and no dashboard—all controls are arranged around the long steering column, while only the infotainment touch screen is placed between driver and passenger.
Will the Pandion become a reality like the Alfa Romeo Montreal, which transformed from study to production car? Robinson uses a metaphor: “One can lead a horse to the water. But it needs to drink itself.”

10 Weird Miniature Versions of Normal Animals
Americans like things big; we like big cars, big portions of food, big screen TVs… You get the idea. These animals are proof that Mother Nature is probably European, because these animals display the kind of forward thinking efficiency that many European manufacturers employ. They are also really, really small.

Baby-Making is Tougher in Space
A paper published in this week's Public Library of Science ONE examined the obstacles to mammalian reproduction in space. While frogs, salamanders, and sea urchins all have proven records of extraplanetary fertility, mammals sent to space have not fared so well in the breeding department.
The team of Japanese biologists decided to investigate the impact of low gravity on mammalian embryonic development. They stored mouse eggs and sperm inside a three-dimensional clinostat, a device that mimics the effects of weightlessness, and then fertilized the eggs, allowing some to develop inside the clinostat and others to develop in normal gravity.
They found that, while fertilization occurred normally in the simulated microgravity, embryos that continued to develop in the clinostat had more difficulty dividing and maturing than those developing in normal gravity. Some of the embryos did survive and were implanted in mice, but they survived in much lower numbers than the embryos that were fertilized in the clinostat but developed outside it (no word on the relative health of the mice that were ultimately born). And the experiment suggests that mammalian embryos are especially sensitive to changes in gravity, and that it might be difficult for humans to reproduce in places where the gravity does not resemble Earth's.

Corey Haim Dies At 38
Ed Winter, LA County Coroner's Office Assistant Chief, told reporters that Haim's mother had called paramedics when her son collapsed in the early morning hours.
"This morning at about 1:30...Corey Haim's mom found him. He got up out of bed and had been feeling ill for the last couple of days. As he got out of bed, he felt a little weak and went down to the floor on his knees. He's had flu-like symptoms. She called paramedics. They responded and transported him to the hospital where he was pronounced [dead] at 2:15 this morning," Winter said.
Authorities found four prescription drug bottles inside the apartment he shared with his mother, but no illegal drugs, according to Winter.

Topeka 'renames' itself 'Google, Kansas'
In a formal proclamation Monday, Bunten announced his city will be known as "Google" -- Google, Kansas.
"Kansas is what it is, but I was trying to explain to you down in Atlanta that Topeka is not on the prairie. Our rainfall here runs about 32 inches a year. If you get out to Manhattan [Kansas], where Kansas State University is, well, it gets flatter. The wheat fields go as far as you can see. But here it's not. There's lots of trees and lots of water and we're going to develop this riverfront into something very, very nice," he said.
Origin of state's name: From the Sioux Indian for "south wind people"....
In Other words Kansas, still down wind from Omaha Farts.. and that's not saying much.
Chile Earthquake May Have Shortened Days on Earth
The quake, the seventh strongest earthquake in recorded history, hit Chile Saturday and should have shortened the length of an Earth day by 1.26 milliseconds, according to research scientist Richard Gross at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif.
"Perhaps more impressive is how much the quake shifted Earth's axis," NASA officials said in a Monday update.
The computer model used by Gross and his colleagues to determine the effects of the Chile earthquake effect also found that it should have moved Earth's figure axis by about 3 inches (8 cm or 27 milliarcseconds).
The Earth's figure axis is not the same as its north-south axis, which it spins around once every day at a speed of about 1,000 mph (1,604 kph).
