Unfortunately, hydroelectric energy is already exploited with very few sites left that would produce any meaningful reduction in dependencies on fossil fuels. Tidal and wave power are certainly getting attention at the moment but we are still a long way off high output prototypes never mind large scale sites connected to the grid.
Sure, hydrogen power sounds like the solution, but research into fully electric vehicles is also important in order to produce breakthroughs in battery technology and efficient regenerative braking. These technologies can easily be fitted to a hydrogen based car and could in theory improve the mileage of the vehicle (all down to weight really).
Breakthroughs in fully electric vehicles could also spawn new city only vehicles (think G-wiz, but manlier hopefully), where mileage and top speed are redundant compared to emissions and efficiency (I admit that I have no idea which wastes more energy, charging a battery of creating hydrogen)
your playing mario kart, heading for a star, your opponent is to your left, no need to turn the kart simply aim the wiimote like zelda, and fire that green shell at him, some kid in america starts crying, haha cant wait
a) this photograph is clearly missing the 10 second photoshop job required to put cartman in there going "cmon cmon".
but being dead serious: b) i dont know about this PR theory... i mean with so little PS3s, there is no point in creating hype, they will sell every single they ship until next summer, due to minuscule availability (huge demand isnt that necesary). i would rather argue that these people stayed up all night for preorders but were placed around 30th, missed the preorder and decided "well im going to go well in advance for launch"
make no mistake i dont condone this behaviour, this is terribly stupid
actually they've had that deal going for while (sorta). you can buy tickets in the flight to enter a draw for a new car... its pretty shamefull that they would make their money this way but hey. some of the floghts are priced at €0.01 which is just ridiculous, but great.
i must say im rather surprised by this article, from the picture it is clear that there is much more important news to be declared: finally the jessica alba clones are nearing completion, men everywhere rejoice
"I'm heading to university next year, and I've purchased a MacBook. I'm also taking my four year old desktop, just in case I'm left with no computers when the MacBook is being repaired or whatnot. With only two USB ports on a MacBook, I want a Bluetooth mouse. Budget is about $100, and of course, it needs OS X support. Thanks for the help!"
