LOOP!STATION was formed in July 2002 by Sam Bass and Robin Coomer almost by accident. Robin asked Sam if he would come and play some cello at her upcoming photography show. He convinced Robin to join him and his new favorite tool the loop station. After going to the music store and getting her own, they only had two rehearsals before the opening thinking they would only play one show. But after an overwhelming crowd response and sixty five new emails on a list, they decided to play again, and again... Their first c.d. 'conversations with water' was released in July 2003 with amazing response. Suddenly what had started out as an escape for these two classically trained musicians from their respective rock bands, (Deadweight and Birdsaw) and the pressures of writing the 'perfect' 3:30 second pop song, had turned into an escape for their listeners as well. LOOP!STATION sample themselves live and 'loop' the parts creating honest and unique compositions. The shows are intense and captivating. When you get the album home and it sounds just like the show you just saw, it becomes very apparent that LOOP!STATION is operating in a world all its own, a world that is really freaking awesome...Visit LOOP!STATION at MOLI.com

Watch this fail video as one after another, multiple drivers tried to make it around the city of Portland, Oregon. Snow on top of ice caused extremely slick roads, which brought about very hazardous conditions. There were approximately 30 vehicles involved in these crashes from driving in the snow with no injuries.

See what happens in this video when the pressure/energy of the water of a street pipe (during this particular storm) became high enough that the water in the drainage system, upon being given a vertical outlet, was pushed to an elevation that exceeded the ground (or street) elevation at the outlet location. In any case, the geiser causes a truck to crash & becomes quite a spectacle to see. If your still bored, check out/add my profile if you like 'fails' or are into that sort of thing.

http://bit.ly/SteveTheRobot Meet Steve the Robot. Steve is sad because he is made up of old technology. He is being replaced by the shiny new high definition technology of the i-Can Easy HD Freeview box. Steve is sad to be replaced by HD, but glad that he can enjoy his retirement watching more free-to-air channels, as well as the potential to add premium sport or movie channels.
Steve also hopes that if he tries really hard, one day he too could be as popular as the i-Can Easy HD. http://bit.ly/SteveTheRobot
