Accused Florida man says his cat downloaded child porn, not him. - Boing BoingAccused Florida man says his cat downloaded child porn, not him.
Florida law enforcement agents have charged 48-year-old Keith R. Griffin (shown at left) with 10 counts of possession of child pornography after a detective found over a thousand such images on his computer.
In his defense, Mr. Griffin told detectives "he would leave his computer on and his cat would jump on the keyboard. And when he returned there will be strange material downloaded."
He is jail, with bail set at a quarter million dollars. His cat roams free.

Amazing Light Paintings | Abduzeedo | Graphic Design Inspiration and Photoshop Tutorials
Amazing Light Paintings | Abduzeedo | Graphic Design Inspiration and Photoshop TutorialsLight paintings, also known as light drawing or light graffiti, is a photography technique in which exposures are usually made at night or in a darkened room. The images we are featuring here are from Jan Wöllert and Jörg Miedza, the guys behind LAPP-PRO. The light art performance photography (briefly LAPP) is a one-shot, long time bulb exposure photography, performed additionally with movement of light. LAPP originates on a real-time basis directly in front of the camera, created between opening and closing the shutter.
The work from Jan Wöllert and Jörg Miedza was suggested by one of our readers, longo, who mentioned these guys and asked us for a post about them. As they have some really amazing photos, we made this selection to show you here. Long exposure photography involving light effects are really awesome. We also featured a post about it a while ago, Awesome Light Graffiti Pictures, and here we are again showing nice 'light paintings' to inspire you! In writing this post, I remembered the statement, "In photography, it's all about light." I would say that it all depends on the effect that you want to produce - the correct light, the right amount of light, extra light, 'moving' light and maybe no light! Personally, I really liked LAPP-PRO's photos. They are pure art! And thanks to longo for the great suggestion! Enjoy. :)

MARS LAKE PICTURE: First Proof of Ancient Shores Found
MARS LAKE PICTURE: First Proof of Ancient Shores Found
Email to a Friend
June 18, 2009—The first-ever shoreline discovered on Mars would be a prime place to try and dig up proof of past microbial life on the red planet, researchers have announced.
The newfound shore (seen above as it would have looked filled with water in an artist's rendering) lies along what was once a body of water about the size of North America's Lake Champlain (see map), said the University of Colorado at Boulder team that spotted the feature.
Although most ancient deltas on Mars have been badly eroded by winds, the new lakeshores have been sheltered within a valley just north of the equator called Shalbatana Vallis.
Planetary geologist and lead author Gaetano Di Achille said he and his colleagues first spotted hints of the ancient lake in 2007 in sediment data from European Space Agency's Infrared Imaging Surveyor.
Now the scientists say they have "unambiguous evidence" of the well-maintained shoreline, thanks to high-resolution pictures of the region from NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter.
The now dry lake is thought to be just three billion years old—which would mean the region was watery 300 million years after Mars's warm, wet period is thought to have ended, the team says.

Despite the lake's scientific attractiveness, it might be a while before robotic probes can make the trek.
"It wouldn't be that easy to land in the lake," Di Achille said. But "in the future, it will definitely be one of the best places for looking at the presence of life."

Faux Wood Memo Block | Cute design @ jars of cute
A cute block of post-it notes designed to look a block of wood, which is actually 1200 pages of memo notes. Considering the relationship of wood and paper, the design of this Kakuzai memo block can’t be more apt. I love the pretty woodgrain on each post-it note. {via swissmiss}
