Finks Links #67

Another week is over...and I am off on my mini-holiday, so this is an autopost, written yesterday... ;)

Meet the ultimate lock picker (great article from Wired)...

Time lapse videos of NASA satellite footage showing deforestation, urbanization and drought...

The worlds most pointless machine (you probably saw it already, but if not it's worth a look)...

Heaven and Hell...

Meet Nick Pope, the ex-head of the UK "X-Files" team...

Fancy a Tactical defence pen (designed for stabbing people more than writing things)... ;)

10 rather funny signs...

A retro-look USB Vacuum cleaner (to get those stubborn buscuit crumbs out of your keyboard)...

Scientist Chunli (yes, really) Guo modifies metal so it pulls water uphill! Next stop infinite power via self feeding water wheel? Watch this space!

...and finally a hilarious trousers fail...

More next week!

I'll be real nice not to comment on the "Heaven and Hell" here, but it made me giggle. Aaah what the heck, the Swiss aren't good at anything, hee hee! It just makes my day to have a GO at them!!
Have a great mini holiday, and may you both return home refreshed and revitalized !!!!
