Just getting through with a facelift on Jville.net. Now got to get the Jacksonville Business Directory pulled apart and into a database and I’ll be about through with this site anyway…

Houses of the Future

Cardboard house. Another one. But this one is made out of recycled materials and has a plastic membrane roof and water tank (read the article) liner. Interesting concept. Still not sure about the practicality.

New Scientist Breaking News – ‘Singing’ wings help prevent small-plane stalls

—

The use of sound to increase the adhesiveness of the wings surface to air. Novel concept.

But can you see the effect if the amp(s) goes out while in low speed mode? Especially if they reduce the size of the wings the full 20+%. Need to make it mechanical and built as an inverse(?) harmonic of wind speed so the vibration increases as surface airflow decreases.

Quite an interesting concept. Makes me suspect some of the buzz produced by insect wings in hover mode are a variant of this concept.

Sea Ice May Be On Increase In The Antarctic: A Phenomenon Due To A Lot Of ‘Hot Air’?

—

Will be interesting if this does come about. And should cut the ocean level increase a bit. From the article:

“However, findings from our simulations suggest a counterintuitive phenomenon. Some of the melt in the Arctic may be offset by increases in sea ice volume in the Antarctic.”

The Onion | Evangelical Scientists Refute Gravity With New ‘Intelligent Falling’ Theory

—

Now I am not too sure about the veracity of anything I read on the Onion. So this must be taken with a quite a bit of salt but if it is even close to serious there is a MAJOR problem with this religious scientific movement’s logic.

But then we also have the Cat-licks run by that dude with the big hat over in the Vacuum, and they been around and suppressing logical scientific thought for going on what? 12 to 1500 years… 😉

Boing Boing: DTV: an open source video publishing/viewing/downloading tool

—

Mac only right now but has a Windoze version coming soon. Downloaded it and tried it but was taking way too much time to get the feeds downloaded. Will try again in a day or two and see if the first big demand slows down a bit. Looks interesting. If its distributed so all of the clients take up some of the load would be faster I think. Course here I am criticizing it and not knowing how it is set up. Need to at least read the readme before mouthing off…
