Dean Kamen redeems himself

Here’s a video of Dean Kamen (of segway (in)fame(y)). I’m kidding about redeeming himself of course – the segway is pretty dumb, but he made his money designing hospital equipement and aritficial hearts and stuff, so he can make a kind of dumb scooter if he wants to. And a really great arm also apparently.

Lost parrot tells veterinarian his address

“I’m Mr. Yosuke Nakamura,” the bird told the veterinarian, according to Uemura. The parrot also provided his full home address, down to the street number, and even entertained the hospital staff by singing songs.
The Nakamura family told police they had been teaching the bird its name and address for about two years.
But Yosuke apparently wasn’t keen on opening up to police officials.
“I tried to be friendly and talked to him, but he completely ignored me,” Uemura said.

“We checked the address, and what do you know, a Nakamura family really lived there. So we told them we’ve found Yosuke,” Uemura said.
