High Speed Robotic Hand

Cool video of a robotic hand that can do some pretty tricky stuff, like bouncing a ball, twirling a pen, and tying a knot. Now if only those genius scientists would teach it how to do shiatsu massage and send it over to my place, hehe.

A Motley Crew


A motley crew is a clich'e for a roughly-organized assembly of characters. Typical examples of motley crews are pirates, Western posses, rag-tag mercenary bands or freedom fighters. They may align with, be (as a group), or include either the protagonist or the antagonist of the story.
Motley crews are, by definition, non-uniform and undisciplined as a group. They are characterised by containing characters of conflicting personality, varying backgrounds, and, usually to the benefit of the group, a wide array of methods for overcoming adversity. Traditionally, a motley crew who in the course of a story comes into conflict with an organised, uniform group of characters, will prevail. This is generally achieved through the narrative utilising the various specialties, traits and other personal advantages of each member to counterbalance the (often sole) specialty of a formal group of adversaries.
