Ontario bookkeeper with an art hobby accidentally paints image of Jesus

A retired Kingsville, Ont., bookkeeper with a painting hobby has created a canvas that appears to be a landscape up close, and an image of Jesus Christ from about three metres back. Jackqueline Whitson did it without even trying. The 64-year-old had been working on the painting on and off for months, but it was not until Dec. 7 -- a Sunday -- when her husband, Harold, discovered the face of Jesus. It was the first time he had caught a glimpse of the painting from a distance. "He literally jumped out of his seat," Ms. Whitson said. The couple refrained from telling anyone about the phenomenon at first, for fear they might appear crazy.

World of WarCraft player soliciting at Craigslist

Some World of Warcraft players may be taking their hobby a bit to the extreme. A WoW player in the Los Angeles area submitted an ad for Craigslist wanting a "partner" while she's playing Arena. Rather or not this is an actual ad or just a prank is still unknown at the moment. However there is something truly hypnotic about the depth of detail if this is indeed a prank. I must warn that in the original post there is a heavy use of strong language.

Technocrat.net Shut Down

twitter writes "Bruce Perens has pulled the plug on Technocrat.net. 'The technocrat.net public discussion site is shut down. This has happened because the site never achieved the ability to financially sustain its editorial staff and system expenses with its revenues. When it became evident that Technocrat was un-viable as a business, I found that I did not wish to keep supporting the site as a hobby. Certain elements of the community that developed here, unfortunately, creep me out. At the end I faced the decision of asking for donations to keep the site running, or letting it die, and it became clear to me that I'd feel better if it would just die. I am very busy building a new software business, with some great new (and yet unannounced) Open Source software in development.

Robot will recognize a face, shake hands

Trung Le, 33, sits with his robot, named Aiko, at his parents house in Brampton, Ont., on Thursday, December, 11, 2008. Aiko _ quite possibly Canadaís first android _ has a 13,000-word vocabulary, can recognize your face, shake how-do-you-do, read you a story, add sums and deliver the current weather. Costing $25,000 so far in parts _ including a sex doll from Japan for a body, sensors on her head, arms, face and breasts, oodles of bone-structure mechanics, a camera in her neck and computer processors _ the project has moved from hobby to full-fledged passion.
