The Sietch Blog » Watercone – An Ingenious Way To Turn Salt Water Into Fresh Water
The Watercone is an ingenious device that can take salty water and turn it into fresh water using only the power of the sun. The nice thing about this device is it is bone simple, uses the sun instead of fossil fuel, and is cheap to make and easy to use. The Watercone is surprisingly a cone, that you place over a pan of salty water (or over a marsh, or any damp ground) leave it out in the sun, water evaporates, the condensation trickles down the side of the cone, at the end of the day you flip it over, remove the cap at the top and drink the water. This device has the potential to really do a lot of good for a lot of people. They claim that on average one Watercone can produce one liter of water per-day. The Watercone website has some really interesting information and I highly recommend checking it out. 1.

C:\IMAGES\OMNIPAGE\DATA\hm2.htm In collaboration with Norman Rostoker from UC at Irvine, we have designed a novel type of fusion reactor, the Colliding Beam Fusion Reactor (CBFR). It uses protons (p) and boron-11 (11B) for fuel. Fusion reactions produce only three helium-4 (4He) nuclei, and nearly 9 million eV energy. Central to the design is the use of a so called Field Reversed Configuration (FRC) plasma. It has a cylindrical shape,rotates fast about its axis inside a solenoidal magnet, and thus produces a magnetic field that closes upon itself: a kind of self-confinement of fuel nuclei is established, with all confined particles flowing in the same direction. Protons rotate fast, with an energy of about 1 MeV, and 11B go slow such that the protons 'rear-end' the 11B with an energy at which the fusion cross section is highest. We have found that plasma parameters can be set such that essentially all injected p and 11B undergo fusion to 4He and are guided into socalled Direct Energy Converter (DEC) devices.

Organic Mechanic - Discover Smart Energy Gadgets n U !! Map my India launches portable charger for gadgets by vinayak mathur Map my India is better known for their GPS devices but this time they have launched a portable and high capacity mobile charger which you can carry. It can charge mobile phones, gaming consoles, GPS system, tablets, laptops or anything else. The charger has a massive 2200 mAh capacity. The charger can be recharged in only three to four hours of time. Windbelt Micro-wind, 10 Times Cheaper Wind Energy!! [Run time: 2:05 min] I hope you enjoy this short video of Shawn Frayne, a young inventor that has created this device to generate, on the micro-scale, energy for LED lights and radios in developing countries. This is the first approach that uses aeroelastic flutter to create super cheap electricity. We’re talking about changing the way wind energy is harvested and captured. Frayne won a 2007 Breakthrough Award from Popular Mechanics, and he deserves it. This incredible technology is 10-30 times more efficient than the best micro-turbines. UPDATE: EcoGeek reports that Shawn Frayne has launched the website for Humdinger Wind Energy. Here’s a different video of Shawn Frayne talking about the Windbelt technology.

College Poison How this 12inch miracle tube could halve heating bills Last updated at 21:09 15 September 2007 It sounds too good to be true - not to mention the fact that it violates almost every known law of physics. But British scientists claim they have invented a revolutionary device that seems to 'create' energy from virtually nothing. Their so-called thermal energy cell could soon be fitted into ordinary homes, halving domestic heating bills and making a major contribution towards cutting carbon emissions. Scroll down for more... Even the makers of the device are at a loss to explain exactly how it works - but sceptical independent scientists carried out their own tests and discovered that the 12in x 2in tube really does produce far more heat energy than the electrical energy put in. The device seems to break the fundamental physical law that energy cannot be created from nothing - but researchers believe it taps into a previously unrecognised source of energy, stored at a sub-atomic level within the hydrogen atoms in water.

eMagazine - Part 12 Welcome to Hotel-anus. Yes, anus. In fact, the hotel is so named because it resembles the human colon. Although the anatomical point of view, the building is properly done, the last part (in fact, the anus), especially the “inflated”, located on the bed and the bathroom.
