I can see Belichick's master plan now; field an offense with NO wide receivers, just tight ends and converted linebackers. - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

Went to see this yesterday. Some pretty amazing footage of a pack of wolves that was studied up close for 6 years. Also, heartbreaking. The government is about to totally cave on wolf protection based on the ignorance, deliberate misinformation and special interest money put forth by ranchers. - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

Maybe I should Kickstarter this idea. Have wolf watching trips as the payout... - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

"Google Inc has deployed lobbyists to persuade elected officials in Illinois, Delaware and Missouri that it is not necessary to restrict use of Google Glass behind the wheel, according to state lobbying disclosure records and interviews conducted by Reuters." - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

This is so f-ing awesome. - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

"For better or worse, the first interactions people have with Google Glass are through members of the Glass Explorer program who are wearing the device out in public. When those people are determined to act like idiots, that creates a problem for Glass. To head that off, Google has issued a few handy dos and don’ts for Explorers looking to take Glass with them out into public." - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

The only really useful places I have found for them is live sporting events or solo activities. They are kind of antisocial unless you enjoy talking about them to others that ask about them. - Eric Logan

This is how my nephew's college announces a snow day. College sure has changed since I was a student. - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

Given the rumors of the upcoming AppleTV set top including TWC live content, the conspiracy theorist in me wonders if TWC dangled the threat of an Apple deal to drive the price up for Comcast. After all, the cable industry as a whole probably fears Apple more than any other potential competitor and Comcast might see $44 billion as a small price to pay to prevent Apple from getting a foothold in the live content distribution business. - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

I'm disappointed by the lack of traction this is getting. What is WRONG with you people?! - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

"Scientists with the National Ignition Facility (NIF) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory announced today that they have achieved a critical step in fusion research: For the first time, their hydrogen fuel has given off more energy than it took in." - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

Since FF is basically LibrarianFeed these days, enjoy! - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

I'm going to guess not. Librarianship seems to have more navel gazing that most other professions, at least on this level. Usually when I see similar things in other professions the emphasis is on gender or racial diversity, not age, hairstyle, and sartorial choices. The last might be the natural result of having such a vast array of dress codes across the profession? Maybe? - Soup in a TARDIS

"...a better formulation for both sexes would be 211 minus 64 percent of age. " - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

Curtiss, now THAT'S a stress test. :) - That's So CAJ!

"[...]while Sinofsky had the maniacal power and force of will of a Steve Jobs, he lacked Jobs' best gift: An innate understanding of good design. Windows 8 is not well-designed. It's a mess. But Windows 8 is a bigger problem than that. Windows 8 is a disaster in every sense of the word." - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

Just don't expect a harmonious UI experience on Android either, especially on a tablet. - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

Raise your hand if you were hoping he got et. - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

You must watch the video. You. Must. Watch. - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

This is what happens when you hire a "social media expert" by randomly picking one of the gazillion self-titled "experts" that follow you on Twitter. - April Russo (FForever!)

"Federal prosecutors Thursday announced they will seek the death penalty against 20-year-old Dzhokhar Tsarnaev in the Boston Marathon bombing, accusing him of betraying his adopted country by ruthlessly carrying out a terrorist attack calculated to cause maximum carnage." - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

"It’s not the guys who don’t talk that bother me. It’s the guys who have no respect for the jobs of other people. In my world, the bad guys are the athletes who make reporters and camera crews wait, then bail out a back door; guys who get thrills by inconveniencing other people; guys who waste other folks’ time. The true frauds compound this transgression by joining the media as soon as their playing careers end. Lynch didn’t do that. He just made it clear he did not want to participate." - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

"TechCrunch has confirmed reports that Lenovo is buying Motorola Mobility from Google. This is the division within Google that the company purchased in 2011 for $12.5 billion. The terms of the deal have yet to be revealed but we’re hearing the price was near $3 billion." - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

"Google will maintain ownership of the vast majority of the Motorola Mobility patent portfolio, including current patent applications and invention disclosures. As part of its ongoing relationship with Google, Lenovo will receive a license to this rich portfolio of patents and other intellectual property. Additionally Lenovo will receive over 2,000 patent assets, as well as the Motorola Mobility brand and trademark portfolio." http://investor.google.com/release... - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

Russian opposition member Alexei Navalny created a website to document the rampant corruption at the Sochi Olympics. The site is a map with clickable regions showing how illegal dumping, graft, inside dealing, and general sleaze caused billions of dollars to disappear into the pockets of Russian political elites and their mafiyeh buddies. - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

"Building permits are a wonderful thing: They protect us from slum conditions and scammers. They make money for our local governments. But they're also a major financial hurdle for independent home builders—and rules are meant to be broken, man. There's a rich, if somewhat under-the-radar, tradition of architectural loopholes out there, and it ranges from Spain to the backwoods of the United States." - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)

I really, really want to build some kind of modern utility building in my back yard... - Kevin (aka ThreadKilla)
