I am searching around the net and checking some good site for some review from a blogging forum when I saw this site. The Blogthings, it is a site with lots of different quizzes on it.I tried it and answer a question Are you a Brainiac? and that's what I got!..You're a Part Time BrainiacNo doubt about it, you have the potential for big brain power.But potential doesn't get you to genius. It's goin
I had to post this photo of the brain dead artist who put flags on the ground for students to walk on at the University of Maine. Isn't she something to be proud of? My guess is that the University of Maine said, 'we need to do something to let people know we're up here... hmmm... what to do?'What a smart girl. She should go to China and try that crap. Susan Crane - go to hell - mmm k?--Jimmy Z
Sometimes you just need energy for your mind and you don’t care about your body’s energy. When that’s the case there are a few drinks out there that fit your needs including Brain Toniq, Airforce Focus and NERD. Some people don’t want a carbonated drink that will boost their mental faculties so that’s where Function Brainiac Carambola Punch comes in. Function Brainiac is similar to Vitamin Water
You're a Part Time BrainiacNo doubt about it, you have the potential for big brain power.But potential doesn't get you to genius. It's going to take some work.Like most smart people, you enjoy a good intellectual challenge every now and then.But you do tend to shy away from anything difficult, frustrating, or complex.Push yourself to think, learn, and explore more... even when it feels bad.You have the capacity to solve amazingly difficult problems. You just need to let yourself do it.Are You a Brainiac?

One of the greatest shows we have missed out on must be Brainiac: Science Abuse, or usually known as Brainiac for short.This British show is an entertainment show where scientists perform experiments that wouldn't be done in your ordinary chemistry lab.What makes the show so exciting is that it isn't another science lesson, but a rather interesting show that usually involves explosions.These involve blowing up a car full of eight gallons of petrol, dropping a few grams of caesium into a bathtub, or blowing up a safe with a Challenger II tank.Sometimes they take in Physics to the mix, such as potential energy which is when a lump of concrete is swung from a side to land just below another scientists face.It is aired in Britian on Sky One, and if you want to get it here in Jordan, you can on
Brainiac is a great TV show, which unfortunately only lasted one season over here in Australia. Richard Hammond is also very cool, even though my girlfriend has a crush on him, and he almost died in a car accident.Here is their take on chemistry - I did my honours in chemistry, so this appealed to me. I liked the torching of the "Boring Science Video" using a Bunsen burner, and the quote, "These next two alkaline metals are the dog's nuts of the periodic table." Not to mention the fact that, like my own abilities in chemistry experiments, they tend to blow things up, and the Kenny Loggins "Danger Zone" music in the background is also rather special....(PS Sorry for the reduced activity on the podcast - I'm moving house, country actually, and its a little stressful!)
Again, Brainiac is back answering the really big life changing questions… only joking, they’re racing a massive firework rocket against a motorbike, and a golf ball.
A brainiac hits the golfball, Richard Hammond is on a motorbike, but rather unsurprisingly the rocket beats them both to the finish line, being clocked at about 195 miles an hour.
As Hammond concluded at the end “Next time you’re late for work, keep the bike at home, and instead stick a rocket up your arse“. Just be careful and watch for the friction burns.

This is a collection of experiments done by and for the UK Sky One TV programme ‘Brainiac’. It’s a great show presented by Richard Hammond (he of Top Gear and famous for that crash) and Jon Tickle from Big Brother.
These are the best of the Thermite experiments they did on the show, including putting it up against liquid nitrogen and using it to burn through a car (a French one at that).
Thermite is basically aluminum mixed with iron oxide, a simple enough mix you might think, but one which when combined produces an incredible amount of heat, as you can see from the clips above. It’s usually used for such things as welding train tracks together but obviously the bods at Brainiac had some better uses for it!
I’ll be sharing some more Brainiac clips in future so keep me bookmarked.

Whether you believe it or not, in most cases I think the selections for each week's edition of Outloud are pretty obvious. I am pretty sure I have not surprised anyone by writing about bands like The Dead Milkmen, Husker Du and Devo. These are all ba...
