| Posted: 09 Aug 2011 07:32 PM PDT Glass Beach is a beach in MacKerricher State Park near Fort Bragg, California that is abundant in sea glass created from years of dumping garbage into an area of coastline near the northern part of the town. In the early 20th century, Fort Bragg residents threw their household garbage over the cliffs above what is now Glass Beach. They discarded glass, appliances, and even cars. The land was owned at that time by the Union Lumber Company, and locals referred to it as "The Dumps." Sometimes fires were lit to reduce the size of the trash pile. In 1967, the North Coast Water Quality Board and city leaders closed the area. Various cleanup programs were undertaken through the years to correct the damage. Over the next several decades the pounding waves cleansed the beach, wearing down the discarded glass into the small, smooth, colored trinkets that cover the beach today. In 2002, the California State Park system purchased the 38-acre (150,000 m2) Glass Beach property, and after cleanup it was incorporated into MacKerricher State Park. (Wikipedia)

| 10 Actors Who Turned Down James Bond Role Posted: 09 Aug 2011 02:51 PM PDT Most of us would take the opportunity to be James Bond in a heartbeat but not these men. For these actors the name's…well…not Bond. Cary Grant - 1961 Reason For Decline: Cary felt he was too old at 58 to play the role.  Richard Burton - 1959, 1961, 1968 Reason For Decline: Wanted more than the producers were willing to pay.  Burt Reynolds - 1968 Reason For Decline: Burt felt as if Bond should be British.  Adam West - 1970 Reason For Decline: Like Burt Reynolds, Adam thought that Bond should be British.  Clint Eastwood - 1971 Reason For Decline: Also thought Bond should be British. We clearly need an American spy that lives up to Bond.  Liam Neeson - 1994 Reason For Decline: At the time, Liam wasn't interested in starring in action movies.  Colin Farrell - 2004 Reason For Decline: Colin didn't think audiences would want him to be James Bond.  Hugh Jackman - 2005 Reason For Decline: A busy schedule as well as Hugh's fear of being typecast.  Ewan McGregor - 2005 Reason For Decline: Ewan also had a fear of being typecast after taking on the iconic role.  Gerard Butler - 2009 Reason For Decline: Gerard thought that becoming Bond would ruin his career.  Source: wikipedia

| Boost Your WiFi Signal With A Beer Can Posted: 09 Aug 2011 11:44 AM PDT WikiHow has the complete instructions, but basically what you do is cut the bottom off a beer can, slice down the middle of the side, then cut between the top and the sides almost all the way but leaving an inch so the side is still connected to the top. Then you pry open the sides of the can into a radar shape. Stick the antennae through the hole and point the wings so they open out into the room and boom, more wifi signal.

The piece includes over 30,000 random messages left by the visitors to the Galeria Melissa in appreciation of the museum.
