Farewell VHS, We Hardly Knew Ye
It seems like only yesterday I was paying $20 dollars for every hot movie that hit store shelves in VHS format. Today, I can go into a store and buy three tapes for just a dollar. Whoever said that a dollar can’t buy you anything was full of shit. Ever since the creation of DVD, VHS has been on a steady decline. Now with the last major VHS supplier calling it quits, the final nail in the coffin of VHS... Continue reading
Aviation Innovation: Getting Higher Than Ever Before
Powering jet planes with eco-friendly biofuels such as algae has been done before and yet, I’m still being charged an arm and a leg by the airline companies who are still stuck in the past, burning up high emission jet fuels. Deep down in my heart I have always known that marijuana is not only a powerful medicine, but that hemp oil is also a useful and renewable energy source. Just ask DuPont. Come early December, Air New Zealand will... Continue reading
Blast From The Past: Asteroids Is Serious Business
For those not familiar with the 1979 Atari classic Asteroids, let me be the first to inform you: it’s about as hardcore as classic gaming gets. It’s an increasingly difficult game that tests the player’s reflexes, reaction time and nerves. The most difficult aspect of the game is either controlling the momentum of the player’s spaceship so you don’t crash into asteroids, or defending against little flying saucers. I hate those little flying saucers.
Danger! Danger! High Voltage!
I can’t think of a better way to rid yourself of a rodent problem than the Victor Multi-Kill mouse trap. This thing will zap the life out of a mouse with a high-voltage electric shock and guarantees the little bugger will be standing in front of the pearly gates of Miceopolis in less than five seconds. The creators claim it will remove a rodent infestation in one night. If you’re worried about cleaning up the charred remains of the crispy... Continue reading
Wave Farm Swims For Power In Portugal
The world’s first ever wave farm went live at the end of September in Agucadoura, off the coast of northern Portugal. Three wave energy converters resembling Soviet submarines generate electricity with hydraulic rams driven by waves. The farm was designed by Pelamis Wave Power, which hopes to increase the farms productivity by adding an additional 25 wave energy converters that could potentially power 15,000 homes. Waves powering homes? Remarkable, but how does it work?
With These Shoes You’ll Always Collect $200 When Passing Go
There is little selection of footwear that are cooler than high-tops. When Reebok high-tops are fashioned with a Monopoly board design, even Rich Uncle Pennybags can’t resist dropping a money bag to rock these bad boys. Set to be released around the same time as the Monopoly Here & Now: The World Edition, these high-tops with dice patterned laces make even the Voltron line of Reeboks less desirable. Without them you are not allowed to pass go and you are... Continue reading
Morphine And THC Combo Makes Super Painkiller
Morphine relieves pain. THC gets you high as a kite. Combine them together and what do you get? A drug that relieves pain but also gets you high as a kite. Joseph Holtman and Peter Crooks at the University of Kentucky College of Medicine in Lexington, Kentucky have taken the initiative by working on a practical application further proving marijuana’s potential as a powerful medicine. They’ve come up with a profound solution to decreasing morphine doses thus reducing risk of... Continue reading
Mo’ Urban Headphones From The Family Doc
Remember the Toshiba A2DP headphones? Those were tight, right? Wrong! They’re missing one of the most important factors of becoming quality headphones: Dr. Dre’s name. If you want headphones to sell, you need to slap a famous rapper’s name on it. Forget Bluetooth headphones like the Bluetrak ST1; those sell about as well as Funkmaster Flex’s driving shoes. And you bet your ass the doctor’s headphones have high definition sound. There ain’t nothing urban about Bluetooth technology, kid. There are... Continue reading
Parajet Skycar Will Congest Sky Airways
While we aren’t at the point where we’ll be flying sky-high with cars like we’re the Jetsons, we’re getting there. The Parajet Skycar is the world’s first carbon-neutral flying car. In actuality, it’s a dune buggy with a parachute and propeller, able to reach altitudes as high as 15,000 ft. If in the extreme circumstance the car stalls on you, well, you still got that parachute with ya’. It only takes about three minutes for it to go from land... Continue reading
