Creating Invisible Folder in XP

If you have folders on your computer that you want to keep private, this trick will work for you, you just need to remember where you placed them. This hidden folder can be made; however, it is necessary to show all the folders whenever it is required. How can you make an invisible folder? You have to follow these simple steps and your unmentionables will stay hidden away.
1. Decide where you want the invisible folder to be located, right click on that location and select the option “Create a new folder.”

2. Select the folder, right click on it and click on rename option.
3. If you attempt to end here, windows will say that you must provide a name. Here are the instructions to solve this problem. With the number lock on and the field name still active, press and hold ALT and press 0160 on the number pad - then release ALT. A folder should appear with a blank name next to it. 4. Right click on the folder without a name. Choose Properties.

5. Click on the Customize tab.

6. Click on the Change Icon button. Browse through your icons until you find the one that has no image.
7. Click on OK and your folder becomes invisible!
It will allow you to hide things that you don’t want readily available to anyone else. You will be able to hide anything from video games at your workplace, to family pictures or anything else you can think of. If you place it on your desktop, the folder will appear briefly. Due to this, it would be a wise idea to put it inside of a folder, or to hide it amongst a group of folders where it would be less likely to be seen. Enjoy hiding!

Crater Calculator

This is a very nice, fun, interesting, and overall destructive little interactive flash Meteor Impact Calculator.

I’ve spent the better part of an hour making various sizes, and speeds, and angles, and types of rock to see what happens, and, so far in all of them, I am dead. Oh well, the world’s gonna end anyway, at least I’ll have a front row seat!

Here’s an example i went through:

3300m wide, 27 degree angle, 30km/s, rock hitting rock.

That’s a decent sized crater, 770meters deep, and a 9 on the Richter scale, not bad i’d say.

Deeper then The Empire State Building though, that’s tough.

I’d wager that I probably wouldn’t have survived, i mean, I’m mostly covered in 3rd degree burns and whatnot. Oh well, at least it only happens ever 18 million years or so.

The LEGO computer (case)

Even before I got truly into computers, I wanted to make a LEGO computer case. Eventually, price moved me away from actually making one, as it would have cost well more then the cheapest case went to make one, and being the poor student I am, I decided maybe next time. This kid Luke on the other hand decided to just go ahead and spend all his money on the bragging rights (I don’t actually know if he spent all his money on this). But, you’re earned them my good friend.

Here’s a time lapse video of him putting it together, he says it took 2 hours to put together at 1039 total pieces, that’s not bad at all.

When I make my LEGO computer, it will house a full ATX motherboard, and at least 2 hds, and some other stuff. It will also be made of random colored pieces put together however i grab them.
