Red Bull Formula Race: The racing game to play with yourt head movements

Red Bull Formula Face, an online racing game  that allows you  to control race cars with your head.  Turn your head  left, the car goes left. Turn your head  right, the car goes right. 

No joystick.  No keyboard. Just a webcam.  And your face . 


Before you play the game here,  go though  the  video  to see all manner of facial gyrations that control the race car as it makes its way around the track.


You have been Horoscoped

Do horoscopes really all just say the same thing? Data  of 22,000  horoscopes was scraped and analyzed.   See the visualization and make up your  own mind.  


Horoscoped



This statistical analysis appears to reveal something. The bulk of the words in horoscopes (at least 90%) are the same.  When it comes to India ,  I notice that most horoscopes on the  Web  use about the same words - “someone”, “really”, “quite” – were just qualifiers and not really revealing. 


The brilliant  thing is, once you’ve isolated the most common words, you can actually write a generic, meta prediction that would apply to all star signs, every day of the year.








Here is as another I generated from a basic program :

2011: Horoscopes For All Zodiac Signs



 Compared with 2010 next year promises to be more tolerant and it will bring us less unpleasant surprises. Should say that after the last year it will be also much harder to surprise somebody with ecological disaster or financial crash.

Having spent couple of weeks on the wave of philanthropy, already at the end of January we will be totally determined to cope with our lives. Till the beginning of June energetic, courageous action, achievement-oriented spirit will be appreciated.

In March for Aries the planet of fortune Jupiter will be joined by Uranus, the patron of progressive and original ideas, sciences and discoveries (last year both were expressing in the same position the hostile aspects with the other planets, but this year  the Good ones“ will have stronger cards and the Bad ones“ will attack one by one, and because of that the horses should be managed to be saddled up on the run, especially in the business area, as we know, only the ones who have managed to get on the merry-go-round, will have a seat there).

For a moment also Neptune drops in to the Pisces sign, reminding about the ideals and taking care that there will not be stepping over the corpse in the fight for competition.
 
Everything that will be planned or started in the spring, claims for proper grounding in reality, and starting from June we will be given such a possibility. The planet of fortune and development Jupiter will stay till the end of the year under the sign of hardworking and in all matters profoundness loving Taurus, by the way to whom also the topics of passion and money are not unknown. Use this energy of the fertile ground in your life and let it be a productive year!


Here is my horoscope  generated from Molluskan Zodiac by Keith Bradnam :


The Molluskan Zodiac (sometimes known as the Mariners Zodiac).  I am The Octopus:

 Today for The Octopus: 

"Take a second look at what you are wearing. Your friends think that it is time that you burn your wardrobe. Maybe they are right? The current problems with your job are partially due to the monotony that surrounds you. Kick start your career by doing something to shock your colleagues and show them your inner beast. Tick tock, someone will be running late for a meeting with you. They are lazy fools. "

The Octopus :

The wisest of all mollusks. Famed for their abilities to deceive and for their skills in map-reading. Always treat an octopus with a mixture of respect, fear, indifference, and loathing.



Likes:  Everything and nothing
Dislikes: Vulgarity and profanity
Lucky numbers: 38°32, and 121°44
Unlucky numbers: 53°33, and 1°28


Just to clarify, Sunil, the Octopus is  not related to Paul, The Octopus.  The  cephalopod mollusk who  correctly predicted the winner of each of the Germany national football team's seven matches in the 2010 FIFA World Cup, as well as the outcome of the final.  RIP Paul, The Octopus.


I would get all hyped up over these realizations if it weren’t for today’s horoscope for Librans:

“Just keep coasting. In matters of love, reason, statistics or facts may not add up to happiness and they could mean a cold heart.  Allow yourself to be healed by the efforts of someone who wants to shower you with love and affection . You need to experience things for a while and be passive. Take care of  yourself.  ”

Muthalik as Ravana: How to really fight the moral police



I am getting endless invites to join the pink chaddi campaign. The pink chaddi campaign is utterly juvenile. It is generating a lot of PR and buzz for some fringe organization which will revel in it (and so will the pink chaddi brigade).
These do-gooders need to get a clue. Spare me these space cadets who lack the courage to carry out their campaign in Kashmir, where the jehadis have warned that those who celebrate Hallmark Card Day (14th February) will be shot.
What would I do? Here's a thought:
Since Ram Sena names itself after Lord Ram, why not use their ideology to defeat them?
Ergo, only asuras like Ravana harassed women. So Muthalik is like Ravana.
I am carrying out a word of mouth campaign to all the folks I know so it hopefully filters down to the most remote part of Karnataka ( and the rest of India).
You can do the same. If you have anymore workable ideas, please feel free to share them.
Pink chaddi is an elitist and silly idea which is limited to Facebook and some blogs.
For high resolution images, please feel free to email me.
Thank you.
