No Illusions Podcast #40 – Doug La Follette, Wisconsin Secretary of State
Posted on 25. Nov, 2011 by Cameron in Podcast, US politics
Doug La Follette (born June 6, 1940) is an American academic, environmental activist, and politician from the state of Wisconsin. A Democrat, he is the current Secretary of State of Wisconsin and has served in that role since 1983. He is also a Fulbright Distinguished American Scholar and the author of the 1991 book The Survival Handbook: A Strategy for Saving Planet Earth.
I had the chance to chat with Secretary La Follette this morning for an hour about the attempts to recall Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker, President Obama’s track record in his first term and the trend of U.S. politics since Reagan.
3D Printer Project Overshoots Fundraising by 600%
Posted on 25. Nov, 2011 by Cameron in technology
3D printing is an amazing phenomenon. So is Kickstarter.
Brook Drumm from printrbot.com designed a new, easy to build, inexpensive 3D printer for the home. To get it into production, he needed to raise $25,000. So he created a project on Kickstarter.
Instead of raising $25,000, he’s already raised $171,000! I can’t wait to have one of these machines!
Imagine – the next time a plastic doohickey on one of your kitchen devices breaks, instead of throwing the entire unit out because you can’t get a replacement doohickey, you just download or create a blueprint for the piece and make it yourself at home!
