Huge Spinning Blade POV Display is Not for Kids
1:00AM Jack Loftus | We’ve seen some cool POV display setups in the past, like this bicycle spoke Obama propaganda message, but I don’t recall one that could both amaze a person and take their limbs off at the same time. Called the “Display from Hell,” that’s pretty much what this thing does, all while projecting POV images using 100 blue SMD LEDs. The propeller, which spins at 225kph and is both huge and terrifying, was apparently rigged up for a party. A very dangerous party. From hell. [Hackaday, thanks Joao!] More »

U.K. Knife Amnesty Program Turns Up Klingon Bat’leth, No Sign of Worf
12:00AM Jack Loftus | The U.K. is looking to clean up its streets with a knife amnesty program, so you can imagine their surprise when a Klingon, er, excuse me, a Klingon fan, turned in a replica Bat’leth over the weekend. The 5-foot blade startled law enforcement officials, who were hoping the program would see youths turning in knives, blades and other more puny (but no less dangerous) weapons. “It is a particularly nasty weapon that can, literally, take someone’s head off. We are very glad it is off the streets and we want more weapons handed in,” said a Gloucester police spokesperson. To which we say “maybe,” but only if it’s being wielded by one Lt. Commander Worf. Plus, um, it’s a replica. If you want real knives we’ve covered a few here in the past. [Daily Mail via Boing Boing]
