{title}German Scientists Invent a Mind Reading Machine
Ze Germans have invented a mind-reading machine, but it looks more like an MRI machine with a microwave oven inside. The machine can predict from your brainwave patterns what you will do next and is accurate… 		First comes the convenient user interface that fits our natural forms of communication (pinch zoom,accelerometers, etc.), then we will learn to control the interface with our minds, later the interface will be integrated into reality. Allowing us to manipulate and improve reality as we wish.

{title}Gecko Robots - Climbs Walls And Stick
It's only 2007 and we've already seen a number of gecko robots. Why not? Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) have developed a gecko-like robot with uber-sticky fibres on its feet - only this… 		I was watching a show on the Science channel about geckos, and these little guys are crazy, they recently discovered that these little guys have these insane microscopic hairs that bond with the surface they are climbing on a molecular level! I know this robot is very good, and it brings us closer to mimicking nature, but we are not there yet. I can not wait until we are!

Hpnotiq is a French Liquor that blends premium Vodka, natural tropical fruit juice and a hint of Cognac. The combination creates a signature frosted blue color. Over the last year, this new brand has… 		I chose this brand for my bottle stop project, my sister tipped me on to its growing popularity last year. It was a popular drink in the European club scene but was recently brought over to the Americas 2004.

{title}Sony's Flexible Full-Color OLED
This week Sony revealed a flexible full-color organic electroluminescent display (OLED). The display, which weight 1.5 grams, is built using organic TFT technology. It's 0.3 mm thin and features resolution… 		Think of the new products that house this technology. I wonder if this is at all related to the soon to be relased paper thin Dell Monitor.

Garanti Bank, a Turkish bank, has joined with MasterCard to offer the world's first wristwatch with a PayPass-enabled credit card built in to their customers. PayPass is a contactless technology that enabled… 		I am still waiting for the PayPass-enabled credit card cell phones. Then I'll be set.

{title}Knuckle Blaster Stun Gun for Joggers Delivers 950,000 Volt Shock
The Knuckle Blaster Stun Gun is a nifty device for early morning joggers and people who live in dangerous neighbourhoods. Resembling brass knuckles in design, the stun gun is coated in rubber and is easy… 		I wouldn’t mind carrying that around, along with my mace concealing pen, but they seriously have to make these things look more attractive. So that people would wear them on a day-to-day bases and only use them when needed, like rings that activate when my pulse rises, or a pretty bracelet with a little mace beaded charm.

Last September, Trend Hunter discovered an Inflatable Iceberg for your pool. Now there's another invention for wall climbing in your pool. AquaClimb provides rock-climbing in the pool. You can get… 		Sounds like safe summer fun.

{title}The Snake Robot - ACM-R5
The Hirose Fukushima Robotics lab developed an amphibious snake-like robot named "ACM-R5" that can maneuver both on ground and in water surging its long body. It can form a smooth shape due to this joint… 		Thats so Crazy! I love it, its simple it does the job, they used nature as an example, and it moves so freely. I'm almost a little scared of running into big brother poolside.

{title}Mind Contoller for Video Games
Well, we really are living in the future, so far in fact, that there is no longer a need to control video games with our hands! That's idea I'm getting from ProjectEpoc, a helmet like mind controller… 		They are currently trying to make computers controlled by hand gestures; soon it will be with the mind. I cannot wait to see 3d modeling programs or claytronics (programmable matter) being manipulated with the mind. Just think of the Freudian slips, or the ways we learn to work around constant mental bombardment. Would the subconscious cease to exist?

{title}Footloose - Heels to Flats, in a Snap!
Now I’m not much of a heel wearer myself, but I can imagine they get pretty uncomfortable after being in them all day. Footloose, a project being worked on by Marte Den Hollander, is hoping to give those… 		finally!

{title}Rolling Bridge - Curls Itself into a Ball
This bridge looks like an ordinary outdoor sculpture but actually it is a hydraulic bridge that can uncurl itself for the boats traffic. This is one of many projects by Thomas Heatherwick, who bbc referrs… 		That does not make sense. This is a designed element beautiful and functional but not portable. If it were built longer it would also be larger in its compressed state, making transport ridicules. This is not for aid and rescue because there are simpler more compact bridges for that. This is beautiful and perfect as it is, and the designer is a force to be reckoned with.

{title}Thousands of Gummi Bears Used to Create Elaborate Chandelier
Someone had an awful lot of time on their hands to fashion this chandelier out of gummi bears. I wonder if gummi bears haunt their dreams? This work of art measures 45" x 21" x 21" and apparently can… 		Funny how things can completely be transformed. Reminds me of my friend's push-pin fountain.

{title}Ultra-Thin DVDs from Hitachi / Maxell
Measuring 0.092 mm, the new paper-thin DVDs from Hitachi / Maxell feature Stacked Volumetric Optical Disc (SVOC) techonology. That means 'thin'. 		It looks nice but I do not believe that this improves anything, if anything I think it makes it more vulnerable or fragile.

{title}3D-Images in the Air Using Laser Plasma
Laser puts real 3D-image up in the air! Japanese scientists have succeeded in the experimental fabrication of a device displaying "real 3D images" which consist of dot arrays in space where there is nothing… 		Nifty, I would love to see this developed further.

{title}Apple iPhone Ad Campaign Begins
The campaign for the Apple iPhone started yesterday with an ad in a commercial break during the 79th Academy Awards. It started with images of old phones and people saying hello... Of course they were… 		I love them so much.

{title}Toyger - New Cat Breed Might Eat You, But So Cute!
It's always fun to see breeders 'playing God' to see what sort of animals they can create. The latest new breed is the Toyger, registered with TICA as a new breed of cat. So far there are about 400 Toygers,… 		They are so cute!! but I cant tell the difference between them and regular tabbies... is it the blue eyes?
