Tech and Stuff shared by my FB friends.

It seems that the weekend is ripe for sharing interesting things on Facebook, judging from what I've seen from my FB friends.  These are just a few that came my way:


This picture below is from the World is Beautiful FB page. Where?  The  Igloo Village of Hotel Kakslauttanen, in Finland.  The igloos are made of glass, and according to the description, provide views of the Aurora Borealis:



In case you missed this--- at about 1:45 the dolphins appear.  Beautiful!

My comment:
"It doesn't hurt to take a few self-defense classes.  I took kickboxing for the exercise and I do not feel defenseless.  As adults, we encounter criminals who are beyond the bully stage, who don'e care if they hurt (or kill) when they want to engage in illegal activities.  It makes sense to do the things that make us strong, healthy, fit, and safe.  This means having the strength to help others during a crisis, such as the shootings at the movie theater and other seemingly "random" acts of local terrorism."

I shared the following picture on Facebook:  
I set up the XBox 360 and the Kinect in the Activities of Daily Living room (it is also the music room), and when I went to take a picture of my rafting adventure, the system took a picture of me!
Photo: We got the Kinect working at school, here I'd a picture of me  taking a picture of the screen when the in-game camera took a picture of me trying to ride the rapids...
