Lightning Storm
Last night there was a lightning storm over the Tampa Bay area. I had never been in one with so many lightnings before. It was like there's a strobe light outside!

Sky Diving!
For Christmas bonus this year, my job sent us sky diving at www.SkyDiveCity.com today. There were eight of us who jumped. It was an incredible experience.
I wasn't really nervous until the door opened and other people started disappearing. By the time I got to the door and looked out, my body instinctively screamed (inside my head, of course) at me that this situation is definitely not normal!
The first few seconds was extreme, feeling the fall, and going out into the open. But after I reached my terminal velocity, I couldn't feel "the falling" anymore. It was just lots of wind after that.
When the parachute opened, we slowed down so much that it didn't even feel like we were descending. The ground didn't look like it was getting any closer. But the view was awesome.
My tandem person (Tom) did a great job, and we had a nice soft landing. Overall, it was an experience of a life time =)

Anybots
This past summer I had the chance to visit Anybots. There were two robots there. One was focused on the upper body anatomy (second picture). The other was on the lower body (third picture). The video shows the upper body robot being able to balance itself after being pushed.
