Cargo ship with a kite reduces fuel consumption


The Belgua SkySail - a 10,000 tonne cargo ship with a 160 square meter kite that reduces fuel consumption by 15%. (more at The Guardian)

Pretty cool.

What else might benefit from a 160 square meter kite?

Show and Tell: 3D Glasses


I went to see Beowulf 3D at the movies on Friday; these are the magical 3D glasses.

I was a little dissapointed that they didn't have the classic red and blue cellophane ones. At least everyone recognises those ones as being 3D glasses. But with this new polaroid type, when you forget to take off them off after the movie, people just think you're weird.

At Chadstone they charge extra for 3D movies. A whole extra $5 for just one extra dimension. A bit steep!
