There's a high-quality scan of this sculpture. First thought: great way to back-up history. Second: wonder how well the Solidoodle can print it. Third thought: are you licenced to be able to remix it? Pull it into AutoDesk and put the missing posts back on?

Snacking doesn't actually increase your metabolism. But most "diet experts" still tell you to graze on several small meals per day to keep that metabolic fire stoked.



I've got another 'diet myth news flash' for you: eating less does not cause fat loss.



Yes, you heard me right.

I like cheap hacks.



Got new headphones for work, but the cord was too short. So I found a 5' 1/8" extender cable in my drawers, and then the cable was too long, and too heavy. So, I started putting the point where one jacked into the other into my pocket, and more than once, I would walk away with it still in the pocket and pull my headphones off my desk.



So, I took this magnet clip which I received from Purdue's College of Liberal Arts at TEDx, clipped it to the cable and connected it to my oldest tool, a hook I made in shop class in middle school (as seen in the Make email newsletter). The hold between the magnet and metal hook is light enough that it fails before the cable fails, but it holds most of the weight of my headphones.
