Secret games 3 Customer Review: Secret games 3
This so-called unrated version should be rated PG. I have the version taped from cinemax, and it is much better. I bought this DVD thinking it was that version. Boy, was I wrong. If you want hot & steamy, don’t buy this one. It’s not even luke warm.

Paul Badger, creator of the Arduino-compatible Bare Bones Board, is speaking at tonight’s Providence Geek Dinner. Come early (4:30pm), build a Bare Bones Board (kits will be available for $15, and we’ll have soldering stations on hand and knowledgeable people around to help you if you’re new to this), and get a chance to win a copy of Making Things Talk (winner drawn at random from among the people who build a kit). We’ll be shutting the soldering irons off at 5:30pm sharp, so give yourself plenty of time to come by and make one.

The Best of MAKE (review @ Amazon)
The Best of MAKE is now shipping and we have our first review up on Amazon, Curt writes - I have to let you in on a secret - I’m a secret Make fan. Make is a newish, magazine published by O’Reilly Press with an oddly punctuated title. It is good, clean, geeky fun! Each issue is full of projects you can make yourself. Some are simple and some are wildly complex, but all are fun and absorbing - in a Science Guy/Mr. Wizard kind of way. Remember Erector sets when you were small or later, huge Lego sets? If these interested you then, Make continues this fascination updated for today. Some recent projects for which there are thorough instructions are: a Solar Powered Xylophone , a Blimp Bot or a speaker made from a Styrofoam plate. In case you’re not a subscriber, a compilation book has just been released - The Best of Make published by Make Books, a division of O’Reilly Media. It contains seventy-five projects (a whopping 380 pages) covering everything from Robots and Microcontrollers to toys, games and flying machines. Discover how to build an ornithopter or a blimp. Be amazed by a two-can Stirling engine or a hacked Roomba. Get out your tools and your imagination - you’re going to have fun! In fact, you don’t really need to actually make any of these; just reading about them will provide hours of enjoyment. The best of MAKE (review @ Amazon) - Link & The Best of MAKE at the Maker store.
