Ever thought of the benefits of saving 2 liters of water? Well beside the hundreds of reasons previously listed all over the internet, people looking to reduce their electricity bill now have a reason to store some water.
This Brazilian engineer found a way to light up rooms while reduce electricity bills in countries which come across the sun by simply filling up clear-colored plastic soda bottles with water. All which remains is placing the water-filled bottles in holes drilled in the roof and allow the sun to refract into the room. Of course, this doesn't replace light bulbs, but can be used in a tag-team game: bottles with the sun, bulbs with the moon.
 Left brain: I am the left brain. I am a scientist. A mathematician. I love the familiar. I categorize. I am accurate. Linear. Analytical. Strategic. I am practical. Always in control. A master of words and language. Realistic. I calculate equations and play with numbers. I am order. I am logic. I know exactly who I am.
Right brain: I am the right brain. I am creativity. A free spirit. I am passion. Yearning. Sensuality. I am the sound of roaring laughter. I am taste. The feeling of sand beneath bare feat. I am movement. Vivid colors. I am the urge to paint on an empty canvas. I am boundless imagination. Art. Poetry. I sense. I feel. I am everything I wanted to be.
The Geneva Motor Show is getting more and more exiting by the day. Here's another car that is due to be presented during the event, the B99 Jaguar, which is a collaboration between Jaguar and Bertone an Italian house of design who has been in business for an impressive 99 years, hence the B99 title.
This concept Jaguar will be a compact four dour sedan distinghished by strong and muscular lines that remind us of the Jaguars of old. Its rear end takes inspiration from the classic design of the Jaguar Daimler, while its front end looks to its most recent siblings for design cues. It will be powered by a full hybrid long range power system tuned by Bertone Energy (something Bertone has been experimenting with for a while).
Such a collaboration is not the first of its kind between Jaguar and Bertone as they have previously worked together to give us the 1957 XK150, the 1966 Jaguar FT Concept, 1967 Jaguar Priana, and the 1977 Jaguar Ascot.
Check out the picutres after the break, Enjoy!
I can barely change the tire on my car, yet these guys can do it on two wheels while moving! Imagine how much time this would save formula one drivers if they could pull this off.
What started off as a little experiment in someone's garage is now a ravaging phenomenon taking the music world by storm. Dubstep (Db) is a form of electronic music that incorporates various aspects from drum and bass to breakbeats all the while keeping them in a 2 step beat. The result is Dance Music's (DM) older, darker, and much more mature brother. And given that DM has been whoring itself out to every passerby, it's time that Db comes and whips everything back into place. Also, it has led to the development of a quite breathtaking dance style that just amazes you as you watch how several individuals are inspired to move by Db.
Wait, what's that? DM didn't whore itself out. It and Ke$ha are just friends. Yeah and I'm the Queen of England.
Moving on...
Here's a few clips of some Db classics and the newly emerging and truly amazing Db dance style, all found after the break. Enjoy!
Between you and me the Fiat 500 is one hell of a car. Last summer I had the opportunity to drive it and let's just say that it may have been the most fun I've had on four wheels in a while. On top of that, I think it's one of the Best looking luxury compacts out there with lucrative market potential, leading others to follow suit (i.e. Aston Martin's Cygnet). Many variations of the Fiat 500 have been presented since its release, the most notable of them being the Fiat 500 C Abarth. However, just when you though it couldn't get any better, Fiat goes on to collaborate with Gucci (yes that Gucci!) to create a one of a kind ride.
The official unveiling will be on March 1st at their website www.500bygucci.it.
But for now, you can check out its pictures and related merchandise after the break.
Many job interviewers ask their hopeful candidates a very precise yet mundane question : what is your greatest weakness? A somewhat counterintuitive and sneaky inquiry since you are supposed to take that weakness and turn it into a strength. There has been no perfect answer for it, until now!
