Awesome F-35B Video

F-35B's short take-off vertical landing capabilities.


According to Flight Global, this sophisticated war machine—which is now in its testing phase—won't see real action any time soon, as its engine is getting redesigned turbine blades. (Flight Global)

Richard Wright Dies

Wright died of an undisclosed form of cancer in his home in Britain on 15 September 2008. He was 65 years old. At the time of his death, he had been working on a new solo album, which was thought to comprise a series of instrumental pieces.

Bandmate David Gilmour in his website said: "In my view, all the greatest Pink Floyd moments are the ones where he is in full flow. No-one can replace Richard Wright - he was my musical partner and my friend." He added: "In the welter of arguments about who or what was Pink Floyd, Rick's enormous input was frequently forgotten. He was gentle, unassuming and private but his soulful voice and playing were vital, magical components of our most recognised Pink Floyd sound. Like Rick, I don't find it easy to express my feelings in words, but I loved him and will miss him enormously. I have never played with anyone quite like him."

I was hoping that Pink Floyd would re-unite one day and play again. Now, that dream remains a dream.

Tokyo Flash - Oberon S Mode

My New Oberon S Mode Watch!!!

Bought it from Tokyo Flash online. Placed the order on 31st July and was able to track it till it reached Chennai and it took 3 days to reach there but could not get any update for about a week. Had to make a lot of calls to Chennai post office and Bangalore Customs offices to know where the shipment was. Finally it arrived home on 12th of August.

I was not home so had to wait till the following week end to get my hands on it.

It takes a while to get used to the new way of time representation but you will get used to it after sometime. Overall its a neat watch!!!!

Intel details future 'Larrabee' graphics chip

Intel has disclosed details on a chip that will compete directly with Nvidia and ATI and may take it into unchartered technological and market-segment waters.

Larrabee will be a stand-alone chip, meaning it will be very different than the low-end--but widely used--integrated graphics that Intel now offers as part of the silicon that accompanies its processors. And Larrabee will be based on the universal Intel x86 architecture.

The first Larrabee product will be "targeted at the personal computer market," according to Intel. This means the PC gaming market--putting Nvidia and AMD-ATI directly into Intel's sights. Nvidia and AMD-ATI currently dominate the market for "discrete" or stand-alone graphics processing units. More

Research UAV is Preview of Hovering Spy Drones of Tomorrow

Meet STARMAC, the Stanford Testbed of Autonomous Rotorcraft for Multi-Agent Control. Possibly the cleverest remote control mini-helicopter you've ever seen, packed with GPS, sensors and computer power. It's a research quad-rotor that the Stanford team is using to develop algorithms for future aircraft like it.

The algorithms the team develops will allow hovering 'bots like STARMAC to navigate, deal with collisions or avoidance and even to work as a team, sharing info on their environment and navigating around each other.

TI Builds Pico Projector Into Dummy Blackberry Curve

Texas Instruments has managed to cram that LED lit projector into a BlackBerry Curve. Of course, they stripped everything else out of it, but that’s not really the point. Previous prototypes shown by TI were double, maybe triple, the size of the Curve. TI is certainly getting there and once it’s small enough and efficient enough, we’ll be seeing it in a slew of random places you never thought about. Video
