Death after two-hour ER wait ruled homicide

I would have raised so much hell that they would have seen me or my mother just to shut me up and get me out of there. They should have to pay for this and pay big. My only question is where was the daughter and why didn't she notice that her mother was dead?

Widow rented rotary phone for 42 years

This is a story that will shock you. It is crazy how some people just hand over their money when presented a bill. No questions asked or do they even look over the charges.

A new type of battery using plastic instead on metal

Brown Engineers Build a Better Battery – With Plastic

It’s thin, light, flexible – and plastic. Brown University engineers Hyun-Kon Song and Tayhas Palmore have created a prototype polymer-based battery that packs more power than a standard alkaline battery and more storage capacity than a double-layered capacitor. Their work, published in Advanced Materials, will be of interest to the energy, defense and aerospace industries, which are looking at more efficient ways to deliver electricity.

My new toy

Well since I am going to be taking a trip soon I decided that I wanted to buy a new digital camera. I really like Nikon cameras and a friend of mine has the Nikon Coolpix 5600 and he has really liked it a lot. It is very small but has lots of features. Well I decided that I would look around and see what I can find one for since this is a model that has been out for a little while. Well the other day I went into a local Pawn shop and low and behold they had the higher up model the Nikon Coolpix 7600. It looks like new and they had a great price on it. This camera sells for $over 200.00 or more on the internet. I got it for $100.oo even with tax. WOW What a deal. It records video at 640 x 480 with audio. It has a large 1.8 inch screen that is super bright (this is a problem I have with my other digital cameras when used inside) I love how small it is. I carry it on my side and do not even know it is there. It came with a 256 meg storage card and I ordered a 2 gig card for it so I will not run out of space for a long time. I will post some links to pictures soon.

5 Years and it seems like yesterday

I remember September 11, 2001 like it was yesterday. I was stuck to the tv and could not get enough info about what happened and updates on survivors.

I have a friend who has a birthday on this day. I know that everyday is somebody's birthday but I thought it was kind of strange to know someone. I was woke up by a friend who heard about it on the radio and I don't think I got more then a few hours sleep the next 3 days total.

My prayers are with the families of all who died that sad day. On the ground and in the air. Except for those who hijacked the planes. May then burn in hell for such a horrendous thing.

SAD SAD DAY The Crocodile Hunter is dead

It is a sad sad day today The man known as the Crocodile Hunter is dead at the age of 44. He died doing a filming for a documentary called Ocean's Deadliest. My prayer's go out to his family and friends. He will truely be missed by the world. He was a great entertainer and teacher.

Troops to test liquid armour

I found a very interesting article about troops to test liquid armour. Here is the basic idea.
SOLDIERS are to begin trialling a futuristic “liquid armour” that is worn like ordinary clothing but turns into a rigid shield as soon as it is hit by bullets or shrapnel.

The armour consists of material impregnated with liquid silica that has been modified using nanotechnology. It is designed as a flexible alternative to the current military armour, which consists of Kevlar material reinforced by heavyweight ceramic plates.
