Apparently the Nostalgia Critic and the Angry Video Game Nerd have enough of a Japanese following to cameo in this anime.

Actual screengrab from the anime Zettai Karen Children: The Unlimited, as found by OGIUE MANIAX.

Sometimes homage cameos appear in the strangest of places…

Lightning Ridge Black Opal - Twin Galaxy Gem Stones

Aside from Grey and White, Black Opal is the most precious and is at least 50 times more rare than diamond, yet these beautiful gems are also much more fragile than diamond.

The brilliant colors within the gems are iridescent,  meaning that they will change color or flash as you rotate them. Deep down within the opal are silica spheres arranged in arrays and both the size and organized arrangement of the spheres will determine the color produced. The Twin Galaxy Stones will flash like lightning as you rotate them, hence the name Lightning Ridge in Australia.

The fact it’s my birthstone just makes this gem even more awesome than just the awesomeness of its properties.

Just a reminder that on Sunday, SDA is broadcasting a charity marathon live: Awesome Games Done Quick 2013. This is their seventh charity marathon, and they raise money for good causes: Cancer prevention, autism research, disaster relief, and more. This marathon (Jan 6-12) is again raising money…

KIDS, DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME. ONLY ATTEMPT WITH A TRAINED CHEMIST OR A SCIENTIFIC PROFESSIONAL AND PLENTY OF BALLS.

At Chemistry Club of Phillps Exeter Academy, we fire bend. No big deal.

Here are the procedures:

1. Mix an ample amount of soap and water.
2. Make methane bubbles with this mixture.
3. Take off anything on your arms (including watches, bracelets, long sleeves, etc.)
4. Soak your hands completely
5. Scoop up bubbles.
6. place hand vertically over but slightly to the side of a lighted candle, so the bubble overhanging from your palm is directly over the candle.
7. Do not panic.
8. The fire will form upwards so do not face your palm downwards. Always face it upwards.
9. WATCH IT BURN

raaaaaaaaaaaaad

I’ve done this! It’s really cool to see up close :D

SCIENCE

FireBending 

//WHY CAN YOU FIREBEND IN REAL LIFE AND I CAN’T???

I’VE DONE THIS!!

it’s starting.

I have to try this sometime.

Daaaaaaaamn. o_o

So, I found these while out shopping today. Cotton candy muffins. They’re actually pretty good!

Tee hee hee.

Oh. My. Gog. I was just playing the Dreamcast version again yesterday, and then I see this on my Twitter. Kyaaa, I don’t care if it’s just an enhanced port, I still want this bad boy. Nostalgia for a great cult classic and for being one of my first fandoms online? Yes, man.

And hey, if it does okay maybe just maybe we’ll see JSRF ported (which I never played) and/or the return of that sequel that got cancelled (which, from seeing some of the dev stuff looked sweet).
