Vapor Compression Distiller

I thought that this video was really interesting. No filters, membranes or chemicals are required to filter the water. I could not really find any explanation as to how the vapor compression distiller works, as there was no information on it at the DEKA website.

One thing that I did not realize is that 50% of the worlds diseases are contracted because of waterborne pathogens.

The video below is an interview that was done on the Colbert Report with Dean Kamen, the inventor of the Segway. Kamen is also the founder of DEKA Research.

I have Don Juaned myself or some may say “I have sweded myself!” It’s most often known as a country instead of a verb. Go swede yourself! =o)

Dallas is considering turning off red lights because they are hurting revenue

I saw this on Engadget and thought it was interesting. The text below is the from the article on Engadget.

There’s just one, fairly ironic, flaw to the otherwise totally lovable red light cameras that adorn Dallas: they work too well. Turns out the cams have curtailed red light infractions by 50 percent, which in turn has put a budget crunch on City Hall. The city is now considering stopping its planned rollout of more cameras, or shutting down the cameras on a rotating basis — upkeep when off is next to nothing, but the city pays $3,799 per month per online camera to its service provider. That sounds like quite a spendy broadband bill, but we’re not the experts here. Just remember kids, your government wants what’s best for you, and what’s best for you is a well-funded government, alright?
