The World’s Most Powerful Shredder
April 27th, 2008
When I first saw this video I was totally blown away. The folks over at SSI have created a shredder that eats anything. In the video below the shredder devours a fridge, a sofa, and a giant monster truck tire. There are additional videos on Youtube of the shredder even eating a Dodge Daytona!
Imagine if we installed one of these shredders at everyone of our dumps around the nation, our footprint would be dramatically decreased. Alright enough chitchat check out the video!
Make Surround Sound Speakers With Old Bottles
April 26th, 2008
Upon entering the home of my friend Gary I noticed he proudly displayed large gallon jugs of booze. The jugs were of course empty, and served as a pleasant reminder of his conquests. Gary isn’t the only friend of mine who proudly displays his empty bottles like trophies. A lot of people do. Maybe my friends are just alcoholics, maybe its a college thing. Whatever the reason, I’ve prepared a useful how-to on turning those empty bottles in surround sound speakers. With a good sound system in place, and plenty of alcohol at hand this is one how-to thats sure to land you in the sack!
Alright first things first. Gather six empty one gallon glass bottles. They don’t have to be wine/liquor bottles but hey why not, plus I could think of a few creative uses for the booze! Alright now that you got the bottles in place, and most likely a hangover lets get started on building these speakers!
A Roadster That Gets 135MPG!
April 25th, 2008
Mean and Green
Tesla Motors of San Carlos California has pioneered a 100% electrical roadster that reaches 60 mph in under 4 seconds. Faster then a Ferrari this electric machine gets the equivalent of 135 mpg traveling up to 220 miles on a single charge. The battery fully charges in 3.5 hours which
Tesla boosts is faster then your cell phone battery charge time. Best of all you only need a standard power outlet to charge the battery.
Regenerative what?
Utilizing what Tesla refers to as regenerative braking the battery actually stores the energy usually lost when you slow down, allowing you get more miles out of your battery. So whenever you slow down you send a charge back to the battery, kind of like an added bonus for enduring traffic jams or driving out to that 7 million dollar tree house.

Seasonal Allergies Have Arrived
Another earth day has now passed us by, unfortunately with the passing of earth day typically comes seasonal allergies. Thanks to the constantly degrading environmental conditions, and harmful chemicals now found in more and more products the number of allergy suffers seems to be increasing each year at an exponential rate. The good news is there are simple green remedies you can do to prevent/cure allergies.
Be Wary of Over the Counter Allergy Medicine
Over the counter allergy medicine as well as prescription medicine can overly stress the liver, creating a build-up of mucous in the body as the liver struggles to detoxify itself. So instead of helping with sinus conditions these medicines can actually prolong your suffering. So instead of pumping more toxicans in your body check out these natural cures. AS ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR BEFORE STARTING ANY OF THESE TREATMENTS.

A Little Bit About This Great Day
More then 200 million people in 41 countries celebrate earth day. Its become quite a phenomenon since it started all the way back in 1970. Legend has it that Senator Gaylord Nelson of Wisconsin had visited the California to survey damage to the California coast line due to the great oil spill. Upon witnessing the damage he immediately rushed back to Washington D.C. to create a holiday to celebrate none other then the earth.
The History of Earth Day
On this date over 25 years ago in 1970 over 20 million people participated in rallies, and demonstrations through out the United States on behalf of the earth. By 1990 earth day had become an international event of epic proportions. The day is now used to draw attention to current local, and environmental problems, and to discuss commonsense solutions.
An organization called Earth Day Network (clever title right?) now coordinates all the earth day activities around the globe. The organization estimates this year over 1,000 groups, and 500 million people will participate in earth day celebrations.
