Cylons are here! And they can fold towels!
Robot folds laundry
The robot begins by picking up a randomly dropped towel from a table, goes through a sequence of vision-based re-grasps and manipulations-- partially in the air, partially on the table--and finally stacks the folded towel in a target location. The reliability and robustness of our algorithm enables for the first time a robot with general purpose manipulators to reliably and fully-autonomously fold previously unseen towels, demonstrating success on all 50 out of 50 single-towel trials as well as on a pile of 5 towels.
It appears parts of the video are sped up. Plus the robot spends a lot of time looking at the towel while rotating it with its "hand". Still, creepy....
I seem to have been put in charge of organizing a scavenger hunt for Bring your Children to work day.
I read this as "Bring your Chicken to work day."
Welcome little Luna! I'm sorry that the delivery was so hard, but she is a thing of beauty.
I really love Aromaleigh too, but I find that as I get older, the redness from the rosacea gets harder and harder to tame, especially in photos. grrr.

Scavenger hunts aren't too bad if you can get away with just hiding clues instead of clues and toys in each spot. But yeah, they do take a while to set up.
Ooh, I may have to check that out, Tep. I'm very shiny, too, and I prefer powder foundations to any other, because they're so light and don't build up in my pores like other foundations.
I have been liking the Covergirl simply ageless foundation--the kind with Olay swirled in. Cheap, covers red and lasts the day without looking like I am wearing anything. I am still looking for something to wear under my eyes. I don't have dark circles, but I do have bags and some wrinkles. Everything I try just looks cakey and makes the lines look worse. Any suggestions?
okay buffistas, don't let me down... what do you all know about the google envelopes? [link]

Apply Olay Regenerist cream under your eyes about 10 minutes before you apply any concealer. When you apply concealer under your eyes, use the tiniest amount possible, and use your fingers to apply it. Cakey concealer/foundation under the eyes is usually due to that area not being moisturized enough, and too much product. (I use the Aromaleigh creme concealer, and I gently tap my finger on the surface of it once for each eye. If I use more, I look like I did a poor spackling job.)
Jilli, I meant to say in LJ a day or two ago, the picture you posted of the Vampire Ball, where you're looking at your friend's music-box hat, you look like a flawless china doll.
Okay, they have welded this IV to my foot. The procedure nurse is rather determined. Why isn't she in the ER when I need her?
Almost ready to go in....
