(Note: This article is best enjoyed with the Battle Hymn of the Republic playing in the background.) Does anything stir your inner-patriotism than seeing the old red, white, and blue blowing in the wind? Obviously not, so a couple of guys invented a flag frame that simulates that effect in your living room.
To maximize its patriotic effect you’ll definitely want to use the InMotion Frame with Old Glory, but since it will be available in two different sizes—2×3 feet and 3×5 feet—you can actually swap in any flag you’d like. Whether it’s from your favorite college team, your branch of the military, or even the Jolly Roger for those who’ve ever dreamed of the pirate life.
Using a built-in fan hidden under the left side of the frame, you can adjust the intensity of your waving flag from a slight breeze, to an intense gust as if the Blue Angels have just just flown past. You will need to hang the frame somewhere close to an outlet so you can plug it in, but otherwise you can hang it anywhere in your home or office—because that’s what freedom’s all about.
The inventors of the InMotion Frame, Angelo Fruci and Adam Mallek, have chosen the crowdfunding route to help bring their creation to other patriotic Americans, and their Kickstarter campaign is very close to reaching its $10,000 funding goal.
If you want to help the pair out, and pre-order an InMotion Frame for your own home, a donation of $400 will secure you one of the 2×3-foot models. But for an extra $75 the $475 3×5-foot model will really tell people how much you love your country—or your favorite NFL team.
Both are expected to ship closer to the end of the year, barring any production catastrophes. Which is perfect, because when it’s cold and snowy outside, it means you can still proudly fly your flag indoors.

It’s no mystery that Hillary Clinton often acts as if she is above the law, and when accused will follow her hubby’s example of playing dumb. And when asked pointed questions, her responses (“What difference does it make?”) fall flat and fail to inspire confidence. But one of her recent snarky comments was actually inspiring[…..]

I’ve often lamented that the iPhone is a beautifully-crafted object that we must hide inside a protective case. But Structures Engineer Nathan Cobb refuses to cover his up, presumably because he appreciates structures. So how does he manage to keep a grip on his slippery phone? Well, like this:
Okay, so the product is somewhat silly, but it’s only a dollar for two pairs. (Edit: At press time, the Early Birds have run out and it’s now $3 for two pairs.) Cobb needs your help!
The Lil Grits that you see in my pictures and the ones in my video were all handmade. I laminated the silicone film and the adhesive with a spoon and cut the Lil Grits by hand with a hobby knife. That’s fine for making a few sets here and there but producing larger quantities is going to require a much larger spoon and custom tooling.
This one may or may not make it; though the target’s just eight large, it had barely cracked $2,000 at press time. There are, however, still 18 days left to make Lil Grits happen.

Republican Debate Bad Lip Reading
Nerf’s new Apollo and Zeus Rival blasters are some of the most innovative additions to the toy line in decades. And while they can fire foam rounds at an impressive 70 MPH, there’s still room for custom upgrades as YouTuber LordDraconical demonstrates by making the Zeus fully automatic.
Just pull the trigger and less than a second later all 12 foam balls in the Zeus’ magazine will be unloaded on your opponents. It makes for a devastating attack, but it also means you’ll want to carry a few extra magazines with you into battle.
This mod isn’t for beginners, though. In this video LordDraconical walks you through every step, but his upgrades include everything from swapping in new trigger switches, to replacing all of the Zeus’ internal wiring, to upgrading the blaster’s batteries to a lithium polymer alternative that gives the flywheel motors a lot more kick.
There’s always the risk you could damage your new toy in the process, but the payoff seems totally worth it in this case. Your co-workers will love living in terror while working in range of your cubicle—trust us.
