Wicked tornado caught on film.

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

Look at the detail in these photos, Harry is right saying they are defined.
The curve on this tornado/water spout is striking…. coming out of the sky.

Here are a few photos of a Tornado/Water spout that touched down on Sept 9th 2008, at about 6:30 pm. I was working security at Buchanan Dam (Texas) and snapped these photos. This is a rare opportunity to see a Tornado/Water Spout this close and one that is so well defined. I thought the listeners would be interested in seeing it. These photos made top story on Fox News that evening.

Swiss daredevil flies over English Channel.

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

” I can’t wait to have one of these…just imagine jetting down to the shops.

Oh hurry up future I want one of these along side my flying car.


Swiss daredevil Yves Rossy – AKA known as “Fusion
Man”and “Jet-man” made history today when he
flew from England to France.

He is the the first person to cross the English
Channel using nothing more than a jetpack strapped to his back.


Jumping from a plane at more than 8,800 feet (2,500 meters) in the air
above Calais, he fired up his jets and made the 22 mile (35 kilometer)
trip between Calais and Dover at speeds of up to 120 mph (193 km/h) in
13 minutes.

Rossy was propelled by 4 kerosene-burning jet turbines attached to a
wing on his back which he ignited inside the plane just prior to taking
the leap, wearing a helmet and flameproof suit resembling those worn by
Formula One drivers, to help him withstand the jet exhaust around his
legs mounted merely inches from him on the wing.

After a period of free fall the former fighter pilot opened the wing and soared across the water.

The jet pack has no steering controls, so the only way for Rossy to
change direction was like a bird, moving his head and back to control
the wing’s movement.

20 Gadgets You’d Love to Own

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

I would love some of these and hope that someone will produce something similar in the free market.

“These gadgets are so cool that they will make you drool in desire. Sadly most of them are prototypes or simply concepts, but sooner or later somebody will put them into production, hopefully.”

Underwater Turbines to Produce Power

Sunday, September 21st, 2008

Reading the Washington post online today, I came across this article.

“A crane sank a 16-foot rotor into the waters of the East River and
divers swam deep to bolt it to the bottom. By early evening, as the
northerly current sped up, the rotor began to spin, a big thunk sounded
in the control room, a green light went on, and electricity began to
pour into a nearby supermarket.”

This is just the beginning of a project……

In this 2006 photo, a Verdant Power turbine is lowered into the river off Roosevelt Island. This one failed.
