Il pallone Super Tele
Non c'è giovane nato negli anni Settanta che non abbia mai provato l'ebbrezza di tenere uno di questi miti sferici tra le mani. Solitamente venduto dai tabaccai e dai negozi di giocattoli di second'ordine il pallone da calcio Super Tele rappresenta il coraggio dell'onestà ed è un meraviglioso trionfo dell'arte di arrangiarsi.Questo oggetto merita un tributo.
La prima versione del Jabulani...

Athabasca University Press - Bricks to Brains: The Embodied Cognitive Science of LEGO Robots
About the Book
From Bricks to Brains introduces embodied cognitive science, and illustrates its foundational ideas through the construction and observation of LEGO Mindstorms robots.
Discussing the characteristics that distinguish embodied cognitive science from classical cognitive science, From Bricks to Brains places a renewed emphasis on sensing and acting, the importance of embodiment, the exploration of distributed notions of control, and the development of theories by synthesizing simple systems and exploring their behaviour. Numerous examples are used to illustrate a key theme: the importance of an agent’s environment. Even simple agents, such as LEGO robots, are capable of exhibiting complex behaviour when they can sense and affect the world around them.
About the Author
Michael Dawson is a professor of psychology at the University of Alberta. He is the author of numerous scientific papers as well as the books Understanding Cognitive Science (1998), Minds and Machines (2004), and Connectionism: A Hands-on Approach (2005).
Brian Dupuis is a research assistant in psychology at the University of Alberta.

ThinkGeek :: 25th Anniversary Voltron
Robeasts Beware
Everyone knows that this is the real Voltron, but we don't envy Commander Keith. After all, being the CEO of Defender of the Universe, Inc. is a demanding job. You have to keep the Blazing Sword sharpened at all times. You have to manage the environmental impact of destroying toxic Robeasts on your own planet. You have to wonder when Sven is going to show up and steal the Blue Lion or say something mystical or philosophical that you can't even begin to understand. Why didn't Sven just die like he did in the Japanese version?!? Really, it's not like Command Keith doesn't have enough trouble with Lance always cracking wise and Hunk eating all the Fruit Loops. He can barely get Pidge to focus long enough to get in the Green Lion let alone fly the thing in a straight line...
Alright... Fine! Sven is ten times the pilot that Princess Allura will ever be, but it doesn't really matter. Allura pilots the Blue Lion and she wears a pink jumpsuit, because she's the ruler of the Kingdom of Altair and she pays the bills. Are you happy now?
In any case, we're sure that Prince Lotor would like to get his hands on this gorgeous 25th Anniversary Voltron set. Sadly for the son of Zarkon, Princess Allura is not included. However, all five transformable lions are in the set and when you assemble them to form Voltron he'll stand an 12" tall with Blazing Sword and Shield in hand/paw/mouth. Actually, this brings up a good question: Why doesn't Voltron have a thumb? How can you be Defender of the Universe without a thumb?
Put this 1:197 scale replica on your desk and take bets on who says "FORM FEET AND LEGS" vs. "I'll FORM THE HEAD". Use the questions above to continue the conversation until you get to the inevitable debate of Lion Force vs. Vehicle Team.
