antidisestablishmentarianism

i know it's been nearly a week since the last update but i've been quite busy. last weekend i went on holiday to a place i've already forgotten the name of. and during the week i've been busy sorting out the csn animations forum and making toons for them lot.

but now i managed to get a half-hour to do something i've never done before. i got out a dictionary and set out to find the longest word that wasn't a proper-noun in the entire english language. and i found it. and it wasn't that long word at the top.

it turns out it's pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis an artificial name meaning a lung disease caused by inhaling fine ash and dust. 45 letters, whoda thunk?

it's the law

one day i decided to read up on my rights and was ultimately shocked to find that my school breached numerous human rights

when i reacted to this i was promptly given a detention and was forced to stand in the middle of the canteen (also against the human rights law - see article 3)

to try to pass the time and also try and cause an uprage i got out some paper and wrote on it "i'm here because i defended my human rights" and hung it in front of me. i didn't necessarily get a massive crowd of hundreds of believers rioting, but i did get a few dozen milling around agreeing with my views, and hell, that's a result for me

the teachers pretended not to notice

my highlight of the day was when an unnamed person claimed that "this place is like guantanamo bay". lovely!

my human rights

micro-art

some art is too small to see with the naked eye

this snazzy little number on the right is a giant panda, painted on a single human hair by japanese artist jing ying hua.

and what did he use for a paintbrush? a single rabbit hair

micro-art isn't restricted to painting either, willard wigan makes miniature scultures on pinheads and eyes of needles



this picture is of a girl with a balloon, taking a stroll on an eyelash

you would think they were going too far when they made some just 2mm in size - and that's the largest some of them have ever done.......


in other news
the number of visitors to the robomilk blog is currently 859

**** willard wigan ** bbc news ****

i'm in a magazine!

just when my life got that little bit lower i ended up getting shot out of a cannon into space

i was chuffed enough when i saw my name (robomilk) listed in the penny forum section

and then i was even more shocked/chocking on own brain matter when it (robomilk) appeared again in the site mechanics section, but this time it was referencing to the old robomilk website (http://www.robomilk2.bravehost.com/). but who cares! it's still my website, i just can't get over this. i did email them to appear in that section but that was nearly a year ago! i had long lost hope of actually appearing

you can get pictures from this site: http://www.robomilk2.bravehost.com/

rover's broken leg

well, they lasted a lot longer than anyone expected, but the mars rovers have finally started to bugger up

it probably the longest lasting thing sent to another planet, it's been there since landing on the 3rd january 2004 and it was inevitable they were eventually going to go kaput, and so it has

the mars rover spirit's front-right wheel has stopped moving and the rest of the rover's wheels are just dragging it along

that wheel has previously stopped working but that was because of some lubrication issue, but this time it's a bit more serious - the entire motor has stopped moving, although it is most likely to be some sort of severance in the motors wiring

it is quite possible that the rover will have to be shut down as it usefulness capabilities have been slowly degrading as the vehicles "rock abrasion" tools are too worn to be used

the rover is currently travelling around the planet's sothern hemisphere and is going to remain unoperational throughout the planet's winter months

life on titan?

I have a new name! It's a cool anagram of Shaun Hargreaves:
Vaughans Shearer

in other news - scientists have discovered that an event that might have happened millions of years ago could possibly have sent life from earth to saturn's moon of titan

could the asteroid that possibly killed the dinosaurs sent debris flying into space to the moon of a planet 821,190,000 miles (1,321,416,800 kilometers) from earth, bypassing the massive gravitational pull from jupiter and land safely in the moon's freezing temperatures?

seems astronomically unlikely

and yet scientists in Houston USA have said it could happen.

unusual.......

this is going by quite fast

i still don't have a new computer, so don't look out for any big updates any time soon

but on a lighter note, we passed the 700 visitor mark today, the amount of visitors peaked weeks ago (over 100 in a day!) and are currently hovering around the 20 a day mark

you can check out and verify my claims by checking our statistics here

it's been a while

it's been a few days since i last updated, and i still don't have a new computer -- so i've occupied myself by typing piles of code for the csn site


hope to be back up soon


shaun, the mourning moaner

as said in this post, my computer's been bonking out on me, and it was in the last hour that i got word, the motherboard was dead.

my computer is now a dismantled piece of scrap, i've salvaged all i could, the sound cards, video card, some drives... but the rest is dead

rust in pieces, old friend

thanks to all you guys out there who keep coming back and also to those new guys who are here.

wiki-history

i just started a Robomilk entry on wikipedia, although it's quite likely to be deleted because This article provides no meaningful content or history, and/or the text is unsalvageably incoherent. It is patent nonsense (CSD G1).

so i thought i would post it here because it probably is gone by now, but if it isn't then go here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shaun_hargreaves)

Robomilk is a small non-profit website started by Shaun Hargreaves when he was about 11. It originally started under the name of Shaun Hargreaves Inc. This changed to Hargreaves Inc about a year later.

Whilst using these names, Shaun started a number of the Sims related websites, including The Sims on the Web, The Sims on the Web 2.0, Sim Spawn (later changed to Sim Search), Sim Search 2 and Sim Search 3.

Many of these sites lasted no longer than 6 months and were distinct faliures. After the general collapse of Hargreaves Inc, Shaun stood away from websites and avoided the subject whenever possible. A few months later, Shaun returned and started RoboMilk. Until now all of Shaun's websites were hosted on free servers, but now he ws getting out the big guns. During his break Shaun had decided to learn HTML, the language of websites and RoboMilk was to be his first full HTML site; although not very good by his standards today, this was a turning point in Shaun's web building career.

The first reincarnation of the site was just called RoboMilk (preview). But many versions were also released including RMR RoboMilk Regeneration (preview), RoboMilk Flash (preview)and RoboMilk Flash v2 (preview). There have also been many other versions that never made it online including RoboMilk Globe, Robomilk XP, Robomilk Interactive, Robomilk.co.uk, and most recently a version known under the codename of ForestFloor.

After deciding that his dream of a good Robomilk site wasn't going to happen anythime soon, he stopped building and started blogging. He started the Robomilk Blog and has updated it every few days since.

Since the beginning of March 2006, Shaun has been a regular contributor on CSN Animations and was promoted to site manager on the 5th of March 2006. Shaun still partakes in web design with the design of the Robomilk Blog (his first using XHTML) and of CSN Animations.

i'm swearing like flippin crazy!

as said in both of these posts - csn 2 and csn animations - i have done up the csn animations website (at http://www.csnanimations.bravehost.com/)

as this provider isn't really the best, i went a searching for a new one, still free - but better. the challange was tough and just weeks after i gave up, i find one, atspace.com

this provider seemed perfect, no ads and more than enough webspace, i tried signing up, but even though it was perfectly correct, i get an error saying the securit code was wrong, i tried again, this time successful. i was told i would soon recieve an email with my information and temporary password

i didn't.

nearly 5 days later i hadn't recieved anything, so i checked out their forums, which were splattered with messages about ddos attacks and large amounts of hacker activity

now i know.

during that time i was driven crazy by the fact they hadn't sent me a single email. and now i feel fine about it.

i'm just completely pissed off that they have nothing of the problems on their homepage, no warning until you actually try and find out what the hell is going on

and i don't like that, i've wasted quite a lot of my time trying to find out why they haven't sent me anything. and now i hardly care about signing up to their service

well done adspace

yay! the big 4-00!

today we reached a landmark. today, at around noontime GMT, the robomilk blog had it's 400th visitor!

of cource this is only since we started counting on February 22 this year, so we probably passed the mark a few weeks ago

and doesn't that make us (to my standards) a

?

philosophies, forums and funky stuff

everyone should have a rule that describes their entire look on life. i do. and mine is

he who lives by the rules,
dies by the rules

you should also check out the forums, they've been around for months but i've only just reorganised everything. check it out here - http://www.createforum.com/phpbb/index.php?mforum=robomilk


and, in case you haven't looked in a while, we have a brand spankin' new toolbar for Internet explorer and firefox. get that here - http://RobomilkBlog.ourtoolbar.com/

csn 2

as mentioned in this post, i am currently doing a redesign of the CSN animations website, thus i have not updated as often as i could

the site should be fully up and running in just over a week, but for now you can see the skeleton at www.csnanimations.bravehost.com

but for now i bring you news...

Is interest in politics declining?
by Sir I.M. Borrin, Political Reporter

A recent survey of the British youth has shown that only 1 in every 10 people have even a mild interest in politics.

When asked the question "What do you think of politics?", 7 out of every 10 people replied with the phrase "I don't care". The remaining 3 people either didn't understand the question, nodded politely or gave long lectures about how the government are idiots.

Many celebrities were asked the same question, with similarly disappointing results with only 7/20 of celebrities giving any signs of actual talent.

The uptake of jobs in politics have been decreasing rapidly since the boom in 1302 BC; in which over two jobs were taken every 3 years. This has now decreased to only a fifth of a person every 10 years.

Of those actually taking an interest, most have grown up in sleep-deprived families who live on the streets scrounging off pigeons and training chickens to play chess for a living.

In this reporters opinion, I think it's time to crack open a bottle of bubbly and wait for all of our problems to scurry away and hide in a bush.

csn animations

our affiliate, csn animations, has got me redesigning their website. but i couldn't do that without giving you my loyal readers a sneak preview while i'm doing it! so here you go!
