- Pulsar Advanced Technologies announced last week that it will soon launch the Vulcanus MK4 water heater which uses microwaves to heat water on demand, drastically cutting heating costs to any family smart enough to install them once they've been approved for use by the general population.
Powered by electricity and unaffected by the volatile gas markets, the Vulcanus MK4 can heat water from 35 degrees Fahrenheit to 140 degrees Fahrenheit in seconds and can source multiple applications at once: showers, dishwasher, sink usages and more. The Vulcanus MK4 is the size of a stereo speaker with a sleek modern look, making it ideal for condos and apartments, while powerful enough to serve the needs of any size family.
- The man who completed mapping the human genome is now starting a new company which, "plans to create new types of organisms that, ideally, would produce hydrogen, secrete nonpolluting heating oil or be able to break down greenhouse gases." This could be a major solution to the dependency on foreign oil and the Third World market demand which is driving up oil prices around the globe.
- In a move that would have made Malthus smile, China has approved the usage of the liquid female condom. This article doesn't reveal the name of the company who makes this product, but if any of you find out, let me know because if they're public--I'm buying stock in them right now!
