Did you say... Moar at La Loc ?
Yes, I did say Moar's back at La Locandiera on Sunday 16th...
with Fono and Daveed.
- Did you ask who's that guy ?
- You just read Groove's Interview...
or ask Moar... or YouVox Urban... or NovaPlanet.

Charlie Todd on a Frozen Prank !
This guy Charlie just invented
the WebSize Candid Camera
Improv Everywhere causes scenes of chaos and joy in public places.
Created in August of 2001 by Charlie Todd, Improv Everywhere
has executed over 70 missions involving thousands of undercover
agents. The group is based in New York City.
Hey, take a look at the other (more than 70) Happenings, or Missions...
or, even better, think about it and do it yourself !

Let's Fractalize Now
Everybody knows what fractals are... you just think to broccoli - you take the whole or the infinitesimal part, the structure won't change. Behind broccoli you find mathematics.

Legendary Camel Spider !
well, today is 'Spider Day' because I've just found this...
As we just can't talk on and again about presidential love stories, fractals, UFOs, markets
evolution, mafiosi under arrest, Berlusco's devotion to money, hip hop, chaos theory, sacred
geometry, nightclubbers, popes, dahus, sashimis, or american elections... let's dedicate a few
line to these God's solifugae creatures...
They actually aren't spiders at all, they're solifugae. Along with spiders, they are members
of the class Arachnida and are called 'camel spiders' because they live in the desert. They
are somewhat of an urban legend and currently one of the most searched items on the
internet.
The camel spider stories began to spread during the 1990-91 Gulf War. Now, with the continued presence of U.S. forces in the Middle East, the stories are becoming legendary but most of them are completely untrue. These creatures are (usually) not dangerous to humans... (more)... except for their bites - I dare to say !
(by exspree).
A Matt Walker BBC article [on July 2010] explains, in a video, their hunting technique :
"Camel spiders have evolved a unique way to capture their insect prey."
