http://aliensgrin.com/2014/04/24/because-you
A tour around my mind. Excuse the mess. High Court Challenge to the National School Chaplaincy Program (again). Ok, this Chaplaincy Program in schools has been a nagging irritation to me for years.

A tour around my mind. Excuse the mess. Magnetically Actuated Micro-Robots for Advanced Manipulation. These creepy little buggers are fascinating to watch.
