Happy Halloween!
October 31, 20092009 Solar Decathlon
October 28, 2009VOA Voice Of America :
‘On a cold weekend this month, thousands of people waited in the rain to visit twenty unusual buildings set up in the heart of Washington, DC. They gathered to see buildings that get all the power they need from the sun. But these structures were not just about solar power. They offered visitors a chance to step into the future of home design and household technology.
The houses were entered in the Two Thousand Nine Solar Decathlon. The United States Department of Energy organized the event. It brought together teams representing twenty universities from Canada, Germany, Spain and the United States. The main goal was to create beautiful homes that can meaningfully cut energy use.

Universal phone charger approved
A new mobile phone charger that will work with any handset has been approved by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), a United Nations body.
Industry body the GSMA predicts that 51,000 tonnes of redundant chargers are generated each year.

At last…
It has been one of my strongest wishes all these years. I have many chargers and it’s such a nightmare to grab the right one at the first glance. They are all black and stupid. I hate having thousands of chargers to keep me company. I could hug the gentlemen who signed the agreement which opens up a new era. These people understand me very good. No doubt about that. Congratulations, gentlemen ! Great job ! I am very proud of you.

A 6-year-old Boy All Alone In The Skies Of Colorado

The balloon just landed. 3:36 pm ET
But no boy inside. Where can he be at this time?
6 pm ET, the little boy has been found. He was hiding in a box in his own home.
Just unbelievable! So many people were worried for him, not knowing if he could land safely without broken bones. But he did not care at all about us, probably dozing in his little box in the attic of his home.
It’s not nice at all to scare people to death the way the whole family did it.
Who is going to be responsible for all that big circus? Or should it be called otherwise?
Who’s gonna pay the bill now?
