on Wired Top Stories (5781) permalinkOK, we'll admit it. Some of us are drawn to dangerous gear like bears to a picnic basket. There's just something devilishly appealing about mixing a few of our favorite things (tech toys) with one of our least (a ride in the back of a squad car). Although we'd never condone breaking the law with these five gadgets, we can't deny our morbid fascination with them. Just remember: If misused, these gizmos could get you ...Shared by <Super Stevie> (48) adam (17) Alberto (374) alphaxion (7) Ananya Walia (2077) Christian (252) Cody (11) Dakota (3) Damian Nicholson (13) Dave Keffler (127) Deks Daka (13) Derek (24) deusdiabolus (447) Doug Adams (347) El_Greco (66) George (54) Haris (119) InformationHigh (52) J.D.

on Green Options (155) permalinkA new report by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Energy Initiative predicts that a 30-50% reduction in fuel consumption is possible in the US over the next 25-30 years. Initially, this will be achieved through improved gasoline and diesel engines and transmissions, gasoline hybrids and reductions in vehicle weight and drag. In the longer term, the study concludes that plug-in hybrids and, later, hydrogen fuel cells may begin to have a significant impact on ...Shared by ~C4Chaos (341) adam (17) Adam Fuhrer (224) Amit Chowdhry (138) André R.

Tattoo? Symbiote? What the Hell is That Thing On Olympian Kerri Walsh's Shoulder? [Retromodo] (32)
on Gizmodo (18149) permalinkFor the longest time I thought the black sinewy thing on Olympic beach volleyball player Kerri Walsh's shoulder was either a confused Alien face sucker, a horny spider, a bad tattoo decision (a la Mike Tyson), or all of the above.

And upon further inspection, the hype surrounding the $15 tape appears justified, and goes way beyond helping ...Shared by Adam (120) adam (17) Adam Dempsey (101) Alan (24) Albie (34) Alex (449) André Elias (220) Andrew Ruess (455) armonde (26) Avi (1649) beggs (41) Busybee (21) Chris C (23) Dani B.
