Sustainable Business: Solar Power, Biodiesel, and Ethanol... etc

MBA programs as well as sustainable business alliances are showing that incorporating environmentally and socially sound practices into a business can also be profitable.

Illegal Immigration; What Can We Do About It?

Some say that the people coming over our border are just trying to build a better life? Well not all of them, some come to join gangs, sell drugs or steal cars.

Multiple Beam Ultrasound Locust Swarm Control

Can we stop a locust swarm with ultrasound or some directional sound wave? If we can stop the swarms we stand to save millions of acres of farmland and crops. If we can steer the locust swarms around to their final destination then perhaps we can save much of our crop yield.

Locust Plagues Are Coming; Can We Stop Them?

The size of a locust plague is often over five miles wide and five miles or more long. And it continues up to 200 feet above the ground. The Locust Plagues in Africa are by far the largest and most devastating and in a nation where humans are already under a crunch to feed everyone and starvation is common place. A locust plague and massive swarm can take out a years crops in seconds and it is all over.

Can Killer Bee Swarms Survive High-Powered Sound Waves?

Can we stop killer bee swarms or even locust plagues using high-powered sound waves? Some believe it is possible and others say we can steer them using sound waves too.

Flying Underwater UUVs or Small Manned Submarines

Is it possible to build a submarine, which flies? Can we build a small underwater craft with the latest new innovative materials, which is light enough to fly, but strong enough to withstand the pressures of the ocean? Could that be possible? Well one online think tank is considering that very issue and they have come up with a fewer rather intriguing designs for instance; Manta Ray Concept

Bouncing Beach Ball Planetary Exploration Robot Swarms

It has been proposed the NASA build planetary exploration robotic swarm beach balls, which can bounce along the surface of a planet and roll as they collect data. Could something like this actually work?

Testing Insect Swarm Sound Wave Devices in Your Garage

Is it possible to stop a swarm of locusts or bees using sound waves? Could this be tested in your garage? Does your garage have enough power outlet to do it? How could you test to see if you could stop a swarm of insects using basic tools for your experiment and doing it in your garage?

Bee Swarms and Team Work to Accomplish Tasks

Bees are small creatures individually, but together in a swarm they can take down a very large animal. When bees swarm they go into a frenzy and buzz a lot as we know? But really why do they do that? One online think tank member recently asked;

Sound Waves, Bees and Micro-Mechanical Flying Insects

There has been quite a lot of talk about taking sound waves to control organic insects with or even to use to stop locust plagues or steer bee swarms. But the more I look at this the more I want to build a micro-mechanical flying insect rather than screw around destroying the bugs. Then use the sound waves to help keep them aloft.

3D Simulations in the Virtual Real World

The real world can be realistically simulated in 3D to provide an environment that promotes collaboration and easy learning. This article promotes the concept and defines the advantages of Virtual Real Worlds.

They Cook, They Clean and They Can Kill; Robots

The robotic future involves many aspects, some good and others not so pleasant, but isn’t that in keeping with the history of mankind? Humans are always having wars and conflicts over various things.
