I’m always amazed at people’s choice of work shoes or lack of—- Cool Video though

Wonder what would you could do or build with those large slabs?
There is a lawn service guy in my neighborhood that operates his mowers and weed-eater while barefooted too.
Wow, that guy gets paid good money to do very little!
That's impressive.
(I don't think that his job would go over very well in the U.S., but it seems to be working well in Japan.) 
Raised crosswalks? Jay-walking legal everywhere?
These concepts are alien to the American mind!
Oh, I looooove the SLC crossing flag idea.
’Though I’d be worried for being taken as a pumpkinsexural waving one-a those around.
“driver compliance”.
it’s a Dutch thing.
not around here.
drivers hit speed bumps at high speed
to video how far they “grab air”.
cars AND bikes.
There are some cool clips called the "Speed Bump Olympics" that show up occasionally in car-crash videos.This one road has back-to-back to bumps, and if you don't slow down, you're guaranteed get some air, and hit hard—with a significant possibility of damage!—on the landing.
And then you hit the second speed bump...
Whee!
Charging Ahead: Batteries of the Future by Yi Cui
Public lecture at SLAC (Stanford Linear Accelerator)
Live right now! Available for restreams later.

The lecture is a bit nerdy, but it is not one of those that promises new tech that will be ready to market in only 5 years. Yi is a leading scientist, but he is not particularly charismatic, at least, when he speaks English.
The Biggest Ideas in the Universe: Space, Time, and Motion
By Sean Carroll
Finally, a popular science book that is not afraid to use equations!
Astrophysicist Sean Carroll, who is definitely charismatic, gives a layman's introduction to the the field equations of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. This lecture was presented to the Commonwealth Club of California earlier this month.

Not the blacked-out Charger, but a (semi-)blacked-out Charger.
Best ASP chase I’ve seen in a while.
That was scary—is that what law enforcement is taught or encouraged to do?
It sure seems totally reckless and stupid to make an ultra high speed pursuit thru heavy traffic at night. The risk to innocent citizens on the road was extreme.
i had a coworker whose wife was hit by a high speed police car in pursuit in broad daylight. She survived but was injured and disabled for the rest of her life. A huge price that she had to pay every day.
The consequences of a mistake seem to far outweigh any benefit of arresting a speeder in those circumstances. There are other smarter ways using technology to find the car/guy and impound and make an arrest in a safer setting.
Watch some of the “blacked out Charger” and/or “ghost-mode Charger” vids.
ASP is apparently notorious for PITting anyone’n’everyone, even pregnant grandmas who have no place to safely pull over for a traffic stop, and will chase ghost-mode Chargers at 150mph on highways, local streets, etc., for 10min straight, even though they lost sight of the car barely 30sec into it.
That Charger is either a Hellcat or at least modded Scatpack (taillights? ain’t familiar), but that guy takes off and 15sec later is barely visible, at 30sec is long gone, but The Chase goes on for, yeah, 10min straight. Might as well be chasing air.
BOC/GMC usually leaves the blinker on for a while, too, just as a taunt. 
And yeah, lots of people call out ASP for being reckless, putting countless lives in danger blowing through neighborhoods like that so fast, etc. One almost took out a pickup flying off an exit.
High-speed chases are a real problem. If you have a policy never to chase, then you will get more reckless drivers trying to run. But if you chase, you often become a reckless driver yourself.
When an innocent third party suffers property damage or personal injury, the cops always blame the runner. This is true even when it is the cops who hit something. Our laws put the liability on the runner, so the cops don't have to pay. And since a lot of the speeders are turnips, you may be SOL if you don't have good insurance yourself.
But even when the bad guy crashes into someone, it is usually the chase that caused the accident. If the cops had not been chasing, in most cases, there would have been no crash.
If the only crime, therefore, is speeding/reckless driving, I tend to favor letting a runner go, especially if you have captured their license plate on video. But when armed robbery, kidnapping, murder, etc. is involved, chasing is almost certainly warranted.
As for the Arkansas police, they scare the hell out me, much more than 99.9% of the speeders out there. In this case, it appeared to me that both the cop and the bad guy were out-of-control reckless, running through a business district at well over 100 mph.
Incidentally, this officer had several good, close-up looks at the plate, two of which can be seen at the 3:11 mark and 4:00 mark. He could have called off the pursuit right there.
Rick Gore is a retired cop who critiques the good and bad behavior he sees in cop videos. Sometimes he supports the cops. Other times, not.
Here is his take on one Arkansas State Police pursuit.
Here is another one where he has some "criticisms" of a cop's pursuit.
Another spectacular fail by the Arkansas State Police.
Or so I think. The guy was stopped, however, so perhaps the troopers consider this to be a success.
The original offense was running red lights. The driver was killed after police performed a PIT maneuver at 109 mph. As seen in the video, the cop got some "big air," and afterwards, a trip to the hospital.
Holy Crap! I never saw that one.
Sooooo, if we have a shooter picking off kids trapped in a school, they all stand around like a bunch of dills bEcAuSe sAfEtY, but someone runs a red light they put countless innocent lives in jeopardy to “get their man”?
Yeah, we’re living in Clown World… 
This scene is sheer brilliance. I keep coming back to this clip and have rewatched it probably dozens of times, and still get goosebumps.
Nb: the facial expressions, music and changes in the music as the tone of the scene changes, pretty much everything in it.
I haven’t watched much of the Matt Smith years, and really should, I know.
Classic scene, along with the Weeping Angels, “Would you like me to repeat the question?”, the Dalek/Cybermen trash-talking each other, “Anyone for dodge’ems?”, the Time Lord Victorious, and a few others I just can’t get enough of.
