The strangest and unusual computer mice
That the person if only from others to differ only will not think up. Even such simple device as the manipulator "mouse" does not give rest to designers and they aspire to improve, make somehow it unlike others. With keyboards, speaking on truth, at them obviously it has not turned out. Let's look on ten most unusual computer rodents.

Touch slajder with two screens
About ten years ago even one touch screen in the smart phone is already was much. And now, when touch there is literally all on light, one sensitive surface - is not enough. After all the second touch screen can be transformed almost into any remote terminal unit, from the keyboard to the game joystick; therefore recently also has appeared concept touch phone-slajdera.

The bridge over a bay of Tszjaochzhou - the longest in the world
In China the new monster of engineering thought – the longest in the world the surface bridge which extent has made 42,5км is placed in operation, — transfers Daily Telegraph.
The bridge under name Qingdao Haiwan Bridge has allowed inhabitants of suburb Huandao to reach without problems for work in the nearest megacity of Tsingtao. By the way, at final cost of a construction in $8,7 mlrd time in a way was reduced all to 20 minutes that should displease tax bearers.
As to technical details movement on the bridge is carried out on a six-strip road cloth, and in a design it is used 5,2 thousand support. As engineers promise, the bridge is capable to sustain not only 8-mark earthquake, but also a typhoon.
It is known that the bridge over the lake Ponchartrejn, constructed in American state Louisiana was the previous champion among surface bridges. Its length makes 38,4km.
Ecological cheap gasoline is promised by the British scientists
According to the British scientists from company Cell Energy, they closely managed to come nearer to creation ecologically safe, and, the main thing, cheap fuel which is capable to replace completely gasoline in modern cars, — shares Daily Mail.
At the heart of manufacture the technology of "electrospinning" which represents nanotechnology reception process tkanepodobnyh structures under the influence of an electricity from microfibres, with a diameter in 30 times smaller, than a thickness of human hair lies. As initial materials are used substance containing hydrogen and polymer on which microballs are fixed.
The wooden laptop i-Wood: the computer from which sight does not spoil
i-Wood, the children's wooden laptop from company Rasselfisch
Possibly, one of the weighty reasons on whom parents do not aspire before to attach the children-preschool children to computers and other high technologies, is fear that children can spoil to themselves sight. You after all remember, how your own parents, and also careful grandmothers drove away you from the TV or the monitor, sentencing, what will spoil to itself sight, in points will go?

Bacteria, yeast and sweet tea use now in quality … fabrics
How you think, whether it is possible to sew clothes from the bacteria, the sweetened tea and yeast? And here at School of a fashion and textiles of the Central college of art and design of Sacred Martin (Great Britain) it already do! For this purpose only it is necessary to dry up received as a result of fermentation of the above-stated components bacterial cellulose, to show a little design sharpness, and … voila! Masterpiece Bio-Couture is ready! – shares Wired.
Americans will start supercomputer Titan in 2012
The Oukridzhsky national laboratory (ORNL) the Department of Energy of the USA (DOE) plans to start in 2012 supercomputer Titan calculated on 20 petaflops (quadrillion operations from a floating comma in a second). For today as much as possible reached capacity makes 2,57 petaflops, and gives out its Chinese Tianhe-1A, — transfers PhysOrg .

The refrigerator of future In My Fridge
It would seem, the main function of refrigerators is to cool products, keeping them thus from damage. But after all and phones only called earlier! And, both mobile phones have now turned to multipurpose devices, and refrigerators in the near future, probably, become the universal units capable not only generating a cold, but also on much more. An example of such devices of the future – refrigerator In My Fridge.
Underwater turbines will make energy at ocean
The ocean is one of the most perspective resources in the world. Though worldwide try to establish windy engines and power generators, till now there is one untouched energy source — underwater ocean currents. Scientists have developed technology which will allow to use currents of Gulf Stream which can possibly supply with energy all Florida.
The new car makes fuel from only, everything
Frenk Pringl (Frank Pringle) has found a way to receive oil and gas literally from only. At once not to understand, whether magic it or the invention which will make 64 summer man the richest person on a planet. In processing car Frenka everything arrives, everything: apron rags, a plastic mug, fragments of rocks, and in some seconds all it turns in hands of the master to oil and natural gas.
This microwave the generator takes fuel and the gas which is in any object. Each hour this car can process 10 tons of a waste and transform them into gas which will make 17 million British thermal units (BTU) energy.
Pringle has invented this car about 10 years ago. Fuel consists of a chain of hydrocarbonic molecules. The scientist has found out that some gases processed in its car, were late, and cold air of laboratory condensed them in fuel. He has understood what probably to receive fuel from any subject in which hydrocarbon contains. It was necessary to find optimum microwave frequency for each of materials, to choose from 10 million variants.
Pringle has spent 10 years and 1 million dollars for calculation of frequency of hundreds kinds of various materials. In 2004 it began to work together with engineer Hawk Hogan who also took up the problems of processing of materials.

The court recognised GPS-speedometer indicators
Scientist Phillip Tann from Great Britain has designed system Autopoietic — the new gauge of speed which works with phones with built in system GPS, informs physorg.com. Its Tann used in court for that proof that did not exceed speed though the police confirmed the return and has imposed the penalty.
In November of 2006 Filip Tann moved through Sunderland, Great Britain when the police radar has fixed that makes its speed 42 miles at an o'clock per a zone where 30 miles at an o'clock are authorised to move not faster. During this moment the scientist from company Autopoietic System (Tann Ltd) tested new system of recording of kinematic indicators about car movement.
The device named system Autopoietic, by means of phone can fix the data in a cell in the size less than half of metre (traditional GPS-devices work with area about five metres). He has explained that the invention is comparable with recording «a black box» the plane, collecting data on a condition of the liner during flight.
