Supersonic speed is so 2000's. What do you know about that hypersonic speed? Apparently Boeing does. They've made a hypersonic scramjet that can reach speeds of up to 4000 mph. The X-51A was set to be tested yesterday but was postponed.
Beyond supersonic speeds lies the realm of the hypersonic--faster than Mach 5.0, or in somewhat more down-to-earth terms, in excess of just under 4,000 miles per hour. On Tuesday, the U.S. Air Force plans to venture into that realm with the test flight of a chisel-shaped aircraft called the X-51A Waverider.
After attending a conference where the $1 million "sea-sick flashlight" (named "THE DAZZLER") was demonstrated by the US Dept. of Homeland Security, we decided to create our own version. For under $250, you can build your own dazzler and we've released the source code, schematics and PCB files to make it easy. A great Arduino project for people who really like blinking LEDs. We also added in a mode selection so you can put it into some pretty color-swirl modes, great for raves and parties!
Yes this project does indeed cause: Nausea, dizziness, headache, flashblindness, eye pain and (occasional?) vomiting! So don't use it on your friends or pets
Ginseng is known as an adaptogen, which means it increases resistance to physical, chemical, and biological stress and builds energy and general vitality.
There are several methods of turning a regular USB Flash or "pen" drive into a bootable drive running a Linux OS platform, and there are lots of advantages to doing so. First, it's like carrying a pocket-sized personal computer. Second, booting from it essentially changes every different computer into the same one.
Constructed of PVC coated nylon inside and out.

I saw this over at The Smitten Kitchen. You should probably go to this blog now and learn something.
If you insist though...
Deb over at Smitten Kitchen had not had a Pop Tart until college. When she had her first, she was sorely disappointed. Inspired by that, she set out to make a flaky, warm, home made version. She doesn't stop there--she includes recipes for multiple fillings including a more savory filling.
Although the frosting part hasn't been perfected, (how the hell do they get it like a candy coating on the store-bought ones? Probably all the mind-control chemicals...) these look like they'll blow those jellied cardboard squares off the supermarket shelves.
Like I said, go to this blog now.
This is genius. A portable hand-powered washing machine?? I can think of a bunch of times throughout my travels where there was no clothes washing situation in sight. This thing comes pre-assembled and ready to stick into the back of your car.
Ry Cooder described him as "the Cuban Nat King Cole". I don't bump Nat King Cole too often but I can say that any album by Ibrahim Ferrer is worth listening to. A lot.
