We recently created a wrap for this PowerGenix Prius.  Check out the photos--and no, your eyes do not deceive you, it runs on D Batteries.  A whole lot of them.  NiZn is such a superior technology to NiMH that these Ds give it considerably more range than a standard Prius.

After we wrapped it we had to, in a couple of days, design something to build around the battery pack in the back for car shows.  Without exact dimensions we put together this display that could be scaled to fit the trunk, and the outcome is pretty nice IMHO.

Over here at the Enemy of Good Enough we seem to be finding ourselves working on a new type of project every week.  Soundproofing a room for audio recording?  Check.  Building a light stage for video shoots?  Check.  This week?  I found myself needing some high quality shots of some small drill battery packs (for PowerGenix Battery Corp.) without a decent camera or lighting setup on hand.  Shots will only be as good as the camera, and our usual DSLR was out of the shop so I had to use the dinosaur (Nikon CoolPix E990).

So what is the best solution?  Build a lighting box that can deal with the shortfallings of the camera.  I'd found some instructions for a light box online months ago (unfortunately I couldn't find and reproduce them here) so I recreated it from memory.

I had the distinct pleasure of designing the new Sport Science Lab Tshirts last week.  Terry was driving to work and happened to see a truck with a "Warning: Explosives" sign on the side of it, and thought it was a terriffic symbol to associate with Sport Science Lab.  I agreed wholeheartedly, and gave him some designs to look at. Most of them looked about like the one to the right. A pretty sweet shirt, in my humble opinion.  In fact, this is the one I cast a vote for (in a variety of colors).

I went ahead and made a grungy version, however, just for kicks.  Whenever I'm comping up something for someone I usually try to make seven or eight version that I think they will like then one more that sticks out like a sore thumb, in this case, it was a grungy version.  Lo and behold, when Terry passed around a sheet of options the grungy one was picked three or four times as much as the next option.  So, we now have a rockin' new Sport Science Lab tshirt.  Click the thumbnail below for a full size version.  It is available now from the Sport Science Lab Store.
