Renault is well known as the car manufacturer with the most models that received 5-star ratings at the EuroNCAP crash-tests. What better way to promote the safety of their cars than to hit them from all directions, in all possible ways. A really ingenious clip from Renault!

Here's a cool video to show how US soldiers in Iraq direct incoming traffic to the right side of the street!

A beautiful animation written, directed and animated by Ignacio Ferreras. From my point of view this animation is a work of art. It's amusing, but I don't know if everybody will like it, so keep your minds open, and try to enjoy it.

The Mercedes C 63 AMG, is designed to be the direct competitor to the new BMW M3. Powered by a massive 6,2 liter engine developing 457 HP, the new C63 AMG reaches 100 km/h from a standing start in justr 4 and a half seconds. The video clip of this beast is simply cool, and is worth watching just for the sound of the engine! Enjoy!

Wanting to be a direct competitor to Apple's iPhone, the oPhone from Microsoft has an innovative design to say the least. It promises to come with a easy to use API (for programmers), which in turn will lead to a whole bunch of applications for the end-user. Although it looks promising, I wouldn't buy one because it's too radical for my taste

What better way to remember the early 90's but with the music video from Aerosmith's Crazy. Enjoy!

This video comes directly from Russia. A very excited and probably drunk football fan, takes the opportunity to enter the playing field, and while nobody was paying attention, he executed the penalty strike...and scored. Pretty unique and hilarious! Enjoy!

Very nice spoof of the famous MTV show: Cribs. Visit Spock and his friends in a short tour of his crib. LOL.

A very weird commercial directly from India. Who the hell makes a 7 minute commercial? Anyway it's really out of the ordinary!

This forklift uses the same technology you've seen used in the robot with omni-directional wheels. As somebody pointed out in the comments, these wheels are called mecanum wheels and have been around since '73 and are used by the US military for different utility vehicles that operate on-board aircraft carriers where movement space is limited. Very interesting!

Here's a fresh new design for wheels. The cool and ingenious part is that these wheels don't move sideways physically, but spin in opposite directions through (what looks to me like) inner ball bearings. Simple and very versatile!

This omni-directional treadmill represents a massive step forward in designing and developing virtual worlds. With the help of a VR head-set you can wonder around a virtual world, and get the feeling of the real thing! Amazing!

This video clip shows how an infrared x-ray machine can work, without the actual harmful effects of x-rays (like cancer also known as mesothelioma to some). An Infrared X-ray Machine displays your vessels and muscle directly on top of your skin by just moving your body under the beam. Enjoy this cool video clip.

Every time I watch this video it gets more and more intense. I mean...how lucky can you be? This stuntman ran in the wrong direction when given the cue, and was so close to being ran over by a truck, that his hair might of really touched the vehicle. WOW. I mean WOW!!!

This Russian Mi-24 HIND helicopter can fly without rotating its main rotor. It can achieve this by pitching the rotor's propellers against the direction of movement, thus effectively working like an airplane's wings. Also the pilot can vector downwards the turbine's engines, giving it partial lift. Quite an amazing feat of engineering! Enjoy these two videos!

The famous comedian actor Eddie Griffin was practicing for a promotional drive for his latest movie entitled Redline, when he had this spectacular crash. The thing is, that the Enzo, isn't even his, but of the director of the movie. Guess insurance doesn't apply, huh?

An interesting movie trailer, coming from an independent film producer. The guy who made also was an animator for Matrix, and he says it took him 4 years to make an 85minute movie. Well...let's hope it was worth it! Here's the trailer! Enjoy!

This children of men trailer video looks great. Alfonso Cuarón's (director of the movie) delivers an exciting plot, which will definitely keep on the edge of your seat: no baby has been born in the last 20 years, and humanity is taking it's last breath on Earth. One man (Clive Owen) can change this. From the reviews on the net, it's going to be a hit. So look out for "Children of Men" on cinema. Meanwhile enjoy the trailer!

The new transformers movie is to be released July 4, 2007. The trailer of this movie has already been released, and uploaded to youtube. The story of transformers the movie is that dueling alien races (Autobots and Decepticons) bring their battle to Earth, leaving the future of humankind hanging in the balance. The transformers movie trailer looks very promising and speaks for the whole "Transformers movie". Enjoy.

The particles of cobalt-chromium can cause DNA damage even if they do not come physically into contact with the cells. The nano-particles manage to damage the DNA of cells protected by a barrier made up of cellular membranes, without physically entering into contact with the cell, but rather through a multitude of chemical signals. This was found in a study coordinated at the Bristol Implant Research Center, proving that it brings out a new risk associated with nanotechnology, but also the opportunity to exploit this behavior in an innovative way. Nano-particles are now widely used. In surgery, for example, are an integral part of prostheses and implants. The research conducted so far on the risks of nanoparticles, however, relates mainly to the effects of direct exposure, while very little is known about what can cause the indirect exposure. In the new study, researchers have wondered if a barrier device was able to protect cells from the effects of nano-particles consisting of chromium and cobalt in the tissues of the clothes and orthopedic implants. The researchers interposed a barrier between nanoparticles formed out of multilayer chromium-cobalt (in quantities thousands of times greater than those with whom we come in contact normally) and a culture of human fibroblasts (connective tissue cells). Although nano-particles have not managed to cross the membrane, the fibroblasts had DNA mutations which were ten times more than the control fibroblasts. According to scholars, the effect is due to chemical signals between the cell membrane and fibroblasts. If the lines of communication between them are broken, the rate of DNA damage returned to normal.
