If you’ve worked in a warehouse before (like I have), you will appreciate having at least a forklift to do the work for you but even better than that would be having these warehouse robots from Kiva Systems.

One thing missing though that I’d like added to this terrific warehouse robot system is ability to use it with higher racks to take advantage of high ceiling walls of a warehouse. Otherwise, you might actually lose space while implementing a more efficient warehouse system. – Unless they create a New Leveled Flooring system Parallel to the Racks.

Stay as safe as possible during an earthquake. Be aware that some earthquakes are actually foreshocks and a larger earthquake might occur. Minimize your movements to a few steps to a nearby safe place and if you are indoors, stay there until the shaking has stopped and you are sure exiting is safe.

If indoors

• <strong>DROP to the ground; take COVER by getting under a sturdy table or other piece of furniture; and HOLD ON until the shaking stops. If there isn’t a table or desk near you, cover your face and head with your arms and crouch in an inside corner of the building.
• Stay away from glass, windows, outside doors and walls, and anything that could fall, such as lighting fixtures or furniture.
• Stay in bed if you are there when the earthquake strikes. Hold on and protect your head with a pillow, unless you are under a heavy light fixture that could fall. In that case, move to the nearest safe place.
• Use a doorway for shelter only if it is in close proximity to you and if you know it is a strongly supported, loadbearing doorway.
• Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injuries occur when people inside buildings attempt to move to a different location inside the building or try to leave.
• Be aware that the electricity may go out or the sprinkler systems or fire alarms may turn on.
• do NOT use the elevators.

If outdoors

• Stay there.
• Move away from buildings, streetlights, and utility wires.
• Once in the open, stay there until the shaking stops. The greatest danger exists directly outside buildings, at exits and alongside exterior walls. Many of the 120 fatalities from the 1933 Long Beach earthquake occurred when people ran outside of buildings only to be killed by falling debris from collapsing walls. Ground movement during an earthquake is seldom the direct cause of death or injury. Most earthquake-related casualties result from collapsing walls, flying glass, and falling objects.

If in a moving vehicle

• Stop as quickly as safety permits and stay in the vehicle. Avoid stopping near or under buildings, trees, overpasses, and utility wires.
• Proceed cautiously once the earthquake has stopped. Avoid roads, bridges, or ramps that might have been damaged by the earthquake.

If trapped under debris

• Do not light a match.
• Do not move about or kick up dust.
• Cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing.
• Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can locate you. Use a whistle if one is available. Shout only as a last resort. Shouting can cause you to inhale dangerous amounts of dust.

News anchor licks iPad.

It’s one things to be stupid and it’s something else to be naive.  However, Fox News and its anchors tend to exude both of those qualities and what we have here is a clip to prove it.

Raoul Martinez, a San Diego Fox news anchor tricked his co-host, Shally Zomorodi, into licking her iPad by stating that Shock Top, a popular beer company, had produced technology that works with the iPad and iPhone to illicit taste and smell from their application.

Now most of you would cry poppycock at the first sign of something like this, but just like the running on water video we saw last year, if you want to believe it exists, it will.  Sadly, Shally ended up licking the iPad and walked off set, all be it with humility. But something tells us should we have been none the wiser if it weren’t for the app displaying a message of “happy April Fool’s day”.

Clips taken from the movie Les Chevaliers du Ciel, “Top Gun à la Francaise,” take us all back to our childhood dream.

Ever wonder what Seinfeld would be like as a dramatic thriller? Well wonder no more.
