Robot Will Help Colonize Mars Well, it's good to know that in the event that our planet collapses under the weight of climate change, overpopulation, a water crisis, nuclear holocaust or whatever, there are designers out there already preparing for life on Mars. If we do indeed set out to colonize Mars, the first thing we're going to need is ample breathable oxygen.

It’s not enough to make green cars, we need green roads as well!

“The global roads network is vast and growing at one of the fastest paces in history. In 97 percent of the continental U.S., you're no more than three miles from a paved road of one kind or another, and the most recent CIA World Fact Book places the number of worldwide paved roads at 15.99 million kilometers. By comparison, the moon is a mere 384,400 kilometers (almost 239,000 miles) away.” “The environmental effects of a road do not stop when construction is complete.

ACLU warning on Facebook quizzes

Posted on August 27, 2009 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Privacy advocates have long warned that users of Facebook and other social networks who seek amusement from quizzes like “What Simpsons Character Are You?” might be mortified by the way creators of such applications can access and potentially “scrape” personal information — not just about the quiz-takers, but their friends as well. Now, engaging in some online jujitsu, the ACLU of Northern California is employing a cautionary Facebook quiz of its own to illustrate how quizzes that may seem “perfectly harmless” can release an array of data to the wider world — including users' “religion, sexual orientation, political affiliation, photos, events, notes, wall posts, and groups.” The app, titled “What Do Facebook Quizzes Know About You?” delivers its answer by opening a window that scrolls biographical data, attributed comments and photos.
