Technion Lecturers are bored

Technion Lecturers are really bored. They have so much time doing nothing they begin to do astonishing usless things.
According to THIS news site "Technion Israel Institute of Technology researchers announced they have successfully put the full version of the Hebrew Bible, with vowel points, on a region measuring 0.5mm², an area smaller than the size of a pinhead."
Dudes our studying program goes to toilet and you do this.. duh..

Warm picture at cold winter

The Great Technion Security

Technion installed security gates.In which they invested a lot of money and our time (gate was closed for half a year). Just watch how easily it was breached. All you need is finger.

Evil vending machine

Photos were taken in Mechanical Engeneering faculty. Where no food sources are left except for one in the pictures. The only pity snackbar that existed between Lady Davis and Blumfield was completly destroyed. So this is all that starving students can swallow... sure if they can get it. An Evil Fucking Vending Machine doesnt want to separate from its preciouse chips.

and I almost forgot - See that waffles near the stuck chips on top photos, BEWARE - they tastes like shit.

Something cool you didnt know

According to CNET
"The architect of the Technion's Yitzhak Rabin Environmental Science building chose to emphasize natural contours for the design. To help air condition the building, a large block of ice is made each night--when electricity is cheaper--in an underground chamber. The melting ice then cools the building."

Sounds SciFi. I cant believe it is true

TCC fucked up again

So, I guess pretty much everyone on campus has reached the annoying screen telling you that in order to surf the net you must install this program. Many might have thought that it's some kind of virus but apparently it's for real. TCC is trying to tag us and bag us.

I believe that forcing us to install a piece of software that we know nothing about in our computers in order to use the Technion's internet is outrageous. Have any of you talked to someone in TCC? I tried but as usual, nobody picks up the phone there.

Technion Security - an answer

I decided not to post picture with all the entrances, But I'll post name of the places instead.

Well to my count there are 6 entrances to Technion !
2 - Main gates, 1 - at Mizrah Hadash, 1 - Canada Gate, 1 - hole in the fence in Canada dorms, 1 - entrance through the forest above Avironautics : 6 entrances

Well to be honest.. there another possible entrance for those who in fond of rock climbing. Somewhere between Science Park and Canada Dorms.

Technion Security

All we know that there are 2 main guarded entrances into the Technion. And in Mizrah Hadash turnstile was installed, so that everyone who posses Student card could enter.
But do you know any other entrances , those that anyone anytime can enter ? I bet you dont.
So I made up a little poll to test you knowledge. I will post the right answer with an edited picture on Asat forum in Technoblog in about one week. And of course feel free to wright in comments.

Oh and one more thing. Whole Mizrah Hadash lousy, easy to climb up fence counts as 1.



For your help I uploaded a photo of the Technion. Though it is little bit outdated...

New Big Statue

Technion will never stop wasting money on dumb statues instead of investing in our studies.
This one is existing for a month at least, but I doubt many of you saw it.

(click to enlarge)
oh... Every photo is about 400k. Since Technion new policy to internet is 6 Gb per month, I think you might need to know it before watching such a big pictures.
(Are they really too big ?)



If I got it right this piece of art should symbolise the brain of average EE student. Two things confused me though. Why some of the symbols are flipped like mirror reflected. And on the last 2 pictures - what is that broken cross is doing there ?


P.s On my way back I stepped on some goddamned mushroom that exploded and sprinkled on my leg its disgusting spores. It looked like brown sugar powder and it covered my whole left foot. The destroyed mushroom was like half meter height. I hope it wasnt some human parasite mushroom that will it me alive.... oooohh...god help me ! :(

Big Scary Snake

Remember hero-cat with tiny little snake. Forget it.
This one is really big ans scary. It was found between New Mizrach and Denzinger Lab. Watch out where you step.



P.s Snake Identity is in the comments

Funny depressing song from EE

Erotic Science

This nice lady was discovered on Image Processing and Analysis Course.
According to Wiki her image was repeatedly used in image proccessing researches.
But I think course could be twice as popular should they used uncensored picture.

Science and Playboy gal. What a mix...

If someone asks why you staring on her naked picture you can always say- "I am doing science, I am in the middle of processing image, he-he"



I am adding a little nice addon. link to pictures of all Playboy girls of the month ever.

P.s Waiting for Video processing and analysis course to appear !

Fair jobs

Yesterday a lot of companies came to Technion to employ students to work
A lot of students came too.
(click on pictures to enlarge)

Some of them searched for job

But most of them looked for free stuff

It was hot day with a lot of hot girls

But for some of them heat and crowdness was so hard that they began to climb walls !!

DC reborn !

New HuB arised from the ashes

Blog mourning DC hubs

Yesterday 2 biggest DC hubs went down. It is still unclear why this happend and who is responsible, but TCC notified HuB admins that they have to shut servers down.
Still it is pretty sure that someone turn us in to TCC.

If Tcc fools enough to close our comunity - we hit them hard. Now that we dont have ability to share LaN connection, each one of us will turn to Rapidshare, MegaUpload and other servicies. They will pay a lot for their mistake !
Though I am sure they cant bound the freedom. For one closed hub two more would be created.

New statue in Tech

New statue was established near the Phishbah (Faculty of Electriciy)


Just after the last Student day. As it was 2 years ago with "Man and cat named Yitz"



It appears that it was made in memory of some student that graduated from Technion with honours and was killed in accident in Alaska.




I am naturally not against good art. And statues which are well made is plesure to see , especially when they come with new benches... but is it right to put statue in memory of the guy who wasn't famouse and didnt do something significant ?
I am kinda afraid of tendency. In a couple of years we could turn in to mausoleum.

And for dessert. Statue coming along with some puzzle. Which I dont quite get due to lack of my hebro. Enjoy solving it.
And if you do - post a solution :)



Very large version of puzzle
