Dyson Makes Its Smallest Vacuum Cleaner Yet, The City DC26 [Vacuum Cleaners]
Weighing just 3.5kg, it's small enough to fit in your hand like a little kitten. It's about as powerful as other Dysons, so sucking up all those cat hairs shouldn't be too much of a problem for the City DC26.
It's apparently been in the works for five years, according to vacuum god James Dyson:
"It took us five years to painstakingly compress and rebuild every single component before we had a machine that was a third smaller than its predecessor, yet could still tackle dirt like bigger machines."
On sale from this weekend in the UK, it'll cost £249.99 and will be available in "satin blue." No word yet on worldwide availability, apart from Japan where it's already on sale, though when it launches in the US we'll let you know. [Dyson]

Android Nuvifone From Garmin-ASUS To Be Revealed Next Month, Possibly WinMo Handsets Too [Phones]
A year ago, the satnav people at Garmin made an alliance with Asustek, the computer people. A while later, the G60 and M20 went on sale. In October, we branded the G60 with a 'DO NOT BUY' review tag.
So why do I think Benson Lin's (the president of Asustek's mobile division) boasts of a new Garmin-Asustek phone are worth mentioning? Well, the fact that it's running on Android has something to do with it. There have been murmurings about an Android device for some time now, but with Lin claiming we'll be seeing it at Mobile World Congress next month, it's sounding a lot more realistic.
The Nuvifone range of phones (all two of them, so far) made by the two companies haven't exactly fared well in tests. In our own review, we moaned about the resistive touchscreen, lack of homescreen button, faulty accelerometer, poor browser, shitty camera and strange interface, and that wasn't even half of it.
A phone running Android would certainly help clear up some of those problems, but obviously hardware will still be an issue if Garmin and Asus can't see fit to put a homescreen button on the device.
In addition to the Android phone, Asustek's going to reveal a Windows Mobile 6.5.3 phone called the M10 at Mobile World Congress. It'll have a 3.5-inch WVGA resistive touchscreen, 5.0-megapixel camera, run on a Qualcomm 7224 600MHz processor and surprise surprise, will also have GPS. The M10 will go on sale in Taiwan in just a few weeks time, for the equivalent of about $435.
Lin is already talking sales figures, despite this mysterious Android phone not being shown off yet—they're hoping to ship one million Android and Windows Mobile devices, with as many as five models expected to launch this year. There goes our notion that this relationship would just be a passing fad. [Digitimes]

In The Future, Let’s All Live In Treehouses Just Like ‘The Wilkinson Residence’ Mansion [Architecture]
This isn't just a treehouse. This is an actual man's home, in Portland, Oregon.
Natural wood ceilings and floors, curved edges, round windows, plenty of wooden beams, it's a naturalist's dream. And possibly a naturist's too, with all those windows. [The Wilkinson Residence via Giz Mag]

Common Sense and Global Warming
A WARNING that climate change will melt most of the Himalayan glaciers by 2035 is likely to be retracted after a series of scientific blunders by the United Nations body that issued it.
Two years ago the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) issued a benchmark report that was claimed to incorporate the latest and most detailed research into the impact of global warming. A central claim was the world's glaciers were melting so fast that those in the Himalayas could vanish by 2035.
In the past few days the scientists behind the warning have admitted that it was based on a news story in the New Scientist, a popular science journal, published eight years before the IPCC's 2007 report.
It has also emerged that the New Scientist report was itself based on a short telephone interview with Syed Hasnain, a little-known Indian scientist then based at Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi.
Hasnain has since admitted that the claim was "speculation" and was not supported by any formal research. If confirmed it would be one of the most serious failures yet seen in climate research. The IPCC was set up precisely to ensure that world leaders had the best possible scientific advice on climate change.
The stunning thing about the IPCC's assertion is not that it turns out to be pure speculation; the scary fact is that anyone believed this in the first place. Just look at a picture: does it make sense that a degree or so of higher temperature could melt this within 30 years?

Download The iSlate App On Your iPhone Now! [IPhone Apps]
Could this be evidence that Apple's little touchscreen portable thingamybob won't be called the iSlate? Developer iBuiltThis may have a case on his hands if Apple rips the name off, seen as how his app has been available since November 2008.
The app is described as a "digital clapper board that can help video enthusiasts add a touch of Hollywood magic to their videos," and while the last update was May 2009 it's still available to download now for $2.99. OR maybe Apple uploaded the iSlate app to the App Store themselves, hoping to throw everyone off the scent? Yeh, I'm probably watching too many X-Files eps. [MobileEnt]
What Air Powered Pump to Remove Napthalene from a Borehole?
Can anyone suggest a small pump for pumping napthalene from a borehole? The napthalene isn't pure (it's a lot like creosote) but it crystalises readily blocking tubes and valves. The liquid product affects plastics and rubbers making them expand. The site is quite remote with an explosive atmosphere

Need help for a new Elect Tram project.
I have been working for a "Conveyors system" project in our corrugator plant in which a tram will pick up the produced sheets from corrugator and load onto roller conveyors. All the material is second hand. I am wondering for how to run the power supply cable (Flat cable or a bus bar) with tram as t
HP Is Working On A Tablet and Notebook With Integrated Projector [Tablets]
With phones, cameras and computers packing projectors nowadays, it's only fair for HP to want in on the portable projector scene considering they've conquered the attractive home office projector market. Attractive for PowerPoint professionals, anyway.
According to the Vice President and manager of personal computing systems group at HP Taiwan, Monty Wong, HP's working on a tablet PC and notebook launch for this year, both with integrated pico-projectors.
While they haven't shown off any proper tablet prototypes (like their rival Dell has, with the Mini 5), if you cast your mind back a few years you might remember HP Touchsmart tablet PCs were all the rage for a while. It was certainly fun playing Solitaire on them with a stylus, anyway.
This isn't the first time we've heard whisperings of a tablet stuffed with projector components. Apple's impending tablet/iSlate was rumored to have a projector, but that idea has pretty much been discarded now due to cost repercussions.
Wong claims HP is looking at placing a projector at the top of a laptop screen, similar in location to where a webcam is normally placed. A couple of years ago, ASUS showed off a prototype just like it, though we haven't seen anything since. Raise the PowerPoint flag, children—shit's about to go down! [Digitimes]
With Scott Brown’s win we’ve taken the Beaches; But the fight has just begun
by Ranald Hay
Hooray! What a great win for Scott Brown in Massachusetts; and a libertarian-leaning Republican no less: fiscally conservative and socially moderate.
The paradigm is shifting... it isn't Left versus Right.
The paradigm is now Liberty versus Tyranny. And Obama is now likely to react by lurching even more towards the Tyranny side.
British-born Quin Hillyer, a libertarian-conservative from "across the Channel," offers a few sobering alerts at American Spectator:
"Wow. Brown wins. This is huge.
But word is that the White House will try to "double down" and try to force through health care anyhow.
[Obama] will try to use executive orders, regulatory/bureaucratic edicts, and a corrupt Justice Department to force through leftist changes in all sorts of areas of daily life. In short, he will become more openly authoritarian. This means we are in for some rocky times. This man is playing for keeps, and he is not a small 'r' republican at heart. He is an Alinskyite."
This could get dangerous and rather ugly. With Scott Brown's glorious win, we have only taken a beach. We have to clear the trenches and re-establish Liberty deep into the nation's fabric.
Meanwhile, Eric Dondero and his merry crew of Libertarian Republicans are enjoying some well deserved victory brews on the beach, after their big win with their favored candidate Brown.
A hearty Cheers to ya lads!

Nokia Is Nok-Nok-Nokking on TomTom’s Door With Free Turn-By-Turn Navigation [Phones]
Following Google's momentous news last October about free turn-by-turn navigation on Android phones, Nokia's just now abolished the price-tag for 74 countries. That's 73 more than Google offers it to. And even better news—it's available now.
You'll need a Nokia phone with Ovi Maps (which runs on Navteq's digital mapping, who Nokia bought out in 2008), for getting free drive and walk navigation; maps updates; and events, Lonely Planet and Michelin guides. Currently it's only available on the X6, N97 Mini, E72, E55, E52, 6730 Classic, 6710 Navigator, 5800 XpressMusic, 5800 Navigation Edition and the 5230.
If you've got one of those phones, hit up Nokia over here and download it now. Let us know how you get on with it—supposedly it works offline? [Nokia Maps via Nokia Conversations]

Conservative Republican from the heart of rural Virginia, introduces Pro-Marijuana reform legislation
From Eric Dondero:
He's been in the Virginia Assembly since 1980. He's a die-in-the-wool old time Ronald Reagan Republican. His district, Gloucester, and the lower Coastal Peninsula, is small town America. But State Assemblyman Harvey Morgan believes lessening rules and restrictions on cultivation and the use of marijuana is entirely consistent with his rural Virginia roots.
From the Daily Press, Columnist Tamara Dietrich:
Harvey Morgan’s marijuana bills are a deep breath of fresh air.
This Gloucester Republican submitted two bills in Richmond that would drop the penalty for possession of less than an ounce of weed from a criminal misdemeanor and a month in jail to a $500 civil fine, and also allow broader use of medical marijuana.
I’d ask what that man has been smoking, but I’m too tickled to poke too much fun... I can say unequivocally that Del. Morgan has outstripped most of his colleagues in the state House in both courage and common sense.
it’s un-American for my fellow citizens to be imprisoned for choosing a drug that is less potent and was unfairly illegalized by a mixed-up Congress in the first place...
You’d think that here in Libertarian, leave-me-alone-dammit Virginia, Morgan’s bills would sail through. But even he knows they’re a tough sell. He’s tried before.
He’s up against “Reefer Madness” fear-mongers who believe the hopped-up stereotypes, like marijuana is a gateway drug.
Actually, folks, beer is a gateway drug. But just try taking Bubba’s Bud away, and you’ll feel the full brunt of his Libertarian wrath.
So good luck, Harvey.
Note - Ms. Dietrich urges her readers to write letters to their delegates in support of Assmb. Morgan's legislation. Delegate contact information can be found off the Virginia General Assembly homepage.
