Scientific Bean Review
Image by floongle
I am performing a series of glucose-based experiments. Harnessing the power of Science I plan to provide a comprehensive review of Jelly Belly’s box of jellybeans.
Wave your mouse over the image to see the results. Due to Australian Maximum Sugar Intake laws, I cannot test the entire gamut of beans in one sitting. Having reviewed 9 so far, the world has already become a brighter and spinnier place! More reviews will be added after recovery from the imminent sugar crash.
Update 2008-03-03: Added "Juicy Pear", "Very Cherry", "Cappuccino", "Orange Sherbet", "Raspberry" and "Kiwi".
Update 2008-03-04: Added "Candy Floss", "Piña Colada", "Buttered Popcorn" and "Bubble Gum".
Update 2008-03-07: Added "Red Apple", "Peach", "Coconut" and "Crushed Pineapple".
Update 2008-03-10: Added "Cantaloupe Melon", "Strawberry Daiquiri", "Chocolate Pudding", "Plum", "Berry Blue" and "Orange".
Update 2008-03-12: Added "Watermelon", "Pink Grapefruit", "Strawberry Cheesecake", "Tutti-Fruitti", "Caramel Apple" and "Toasted Marshmallow".
Update 2008-03-12: Added "Jalapeño", "Sizzling Cinnamon", "Tangerine" and "Licorice".
All done!
Chocolate and Garnets

This is my home made version of the cranberry-orange chocolate biscotti, done as a taste test against Epicure Selections’ mix. I liked how this dough handled better, but the review will be up shortly!
After shaping the log I added some cocoa to the remaining batter for some mini biscotti
iOS6 vs iOS7
Image by frankrolf
Observations:
Top Bar:
– The time is different. Almost 1.5 hours later.
– The alarm clock now can “ring”. (bells added on either side – an example of iOS7 actually containing more detail than iOS6)
– Better WiFi reception; however the signal waves seem to be smaller.
– Electricity is applied to the battery now by its positive pole, no longer in the center (which makes sense).
Apps:
Safari: The cardinal direction stays the same
Contacts: Stronger focus on Mr. ‘Anonymous’; I suspect inspiration coming from the new Starbuck’s logo. 33% less letters. No spiral binding (loose leaf, I assume)
App Store: Now slower than light speed; flat brush has been replaced by pointed brush.
Calendar: curve complexity of figure ‘1’ increased.
Photos: now up to 8 colors!
Maps: The driver no longer takes the suicidal route off the bridge straight on 280; prefers to take the on-ramp. (Also, departs from different location.)
Settings: More fine-grained control possible. However, the gears don’t seem to hook into each other; so I doubt the effectiveness.
Clock: The time did not stop at 10:15 today!
Camera: A paradox. iOS6 – a lens without a camera. iOS7 – a camera without a lens.
Calculator: Still no division
Notes: no longer using recycled paper; it seems the notepad now has a better perforation.
Podcasts: seemingly the same icon; but I am sure it has been redesigned.
Messages: slightly more content possible
☏: “WHITE TELEPHONE” glyph redesigned. FaceTime now needs own app.
Weather: Stormy times ahead!
Bottom bar:
Bottom platform seems to have been tilted an approximate 60° toward the screen. This is why it now seems ‘flat’.
Phone: more ergonomic design, probably easier to hold.
Mail: the rounded corner at the bottom of the envelope adds an uncomfortable, unnecessary detail not present in iOS6.
Music: Interesting visualization of two beamed eighth-notes dipped in chocolate.
