DuMont Personal Airship #6 | Aircraft | Santos- Dumont caught the imagination of the aviation minded world when, in his 110-ft airship Number 6, he flew from St Cloud to and around the Eiffel Tower and back on 19 October 1901. Flying in a DuMont Airship.... (An account by Santos) 'At 11 am all was ready. The basket rocked prettily beneath the balloon, which a mild, fresh breeze was caressing. Impatient to be off, I stood in my corner of the narrow wicker basket with a bag of ballast in my hand. 'Suddenly the wind ceased. Any man who could write so vividly and observantly about his first ascent in a balloon was clearly an enthusiast, and Alberto Santos-Dumont, who wrote those lines, was not only an enthusiast himself but one whose exploits aroused the interest of others. Nature made Santos-Dumont a very small, slim, slight man, weighing hardly more than one hundred pounds, but very active and muscular. He was living in Paris, though he has been a frequent visitor to England and America. azilian. pioneers.

Silent rooftop wind turbines could generate half of a household's energy needs Small wind turbines scaled to the right size for residential and urban areas have so far lived in the shadows of their larger wind-farm-sized counterparts. The power output has been too low for a reasonable return on investment through energy savings and the noise they produce is louder than most homeowners can deal with. A Dutch renewable energy start-up called The Archimedes is working to solve both of those problems in a new class of small-scale wind turbine -- one that is almost silent and is far more efficient at converting wind into energy. When used in combination with rooftop solar panels, a house could run off grid. The Liam's blades are shaped like a Nautilus shell. “Generally speaking, there is a difference in pressure in front and behind of the rotor blades of a windmill. The company is also working on even smaller wind turbine designs that could fit on LED lampposts to power them, on boats or in smaller bodies of water.
Tips for Making Effective Presentations. 1.Practice your presentation. Yes - in front of a mirror. Do NOT turn your back on your audience and talk to the screen! Get comfortable with your show before you give it. 2.I use one of these Kensington presentation pointers - either the K33374US or the new K72367US. The 72367 has a built-in MicroSD card reader and 2GB memory inside the USB dongle. Ideally, you could store your presentation on the USB dongle, and simply hand that to your venue’s a/v person, stating, “This is my presentation, as well as the receiver for my pointer.” Got a presentation pointer to share?

20 Excel Tips for Becoming a Spreadsheet Pro Click To View Slideshow» Become the office spreadsheet guru in no time with these hacks and tricks. There are very, very few people on planet Earth who could ever say they've completely mastered every intricate little thing about Microsoft Excel. It's the world's premiere spreadsheet application, and has been the industry standard for over 20 years, replacing the once-venerable Lotus 1-2-3, the first killer app for PCs in the 1980s. Microsoft Excel's dominance as a spreadsheet has yet to be truly tested, certainly not by Corel's Quattro Pro (yes, still sold today!) There's a reason for that. It's not just for numbers. One thing almost every Excel user has in common: not knowing enough.
Ενημέρωση σε πραγματικό χρόνο για τα blogs του WordPress μέσω του PubSubHubbub (από DownloadSquad) PubSubHubbub, the quickly-growing service that pushes out real-time updates to RSS feeds, continued its march toward ubiquity this week when uber-popular blogging platform WordPress started offering PubSub support. PubSub had already hit Tumblr, Posterous, Google's Blogger and more, but I think this is the move that finally takes it mainstream. (Well, as mainstream as anything having to do with RSS feeds can be). There was already a Wordpress.org plugin that could activate PubSub, but WordPress has released a new and official version, called PuSHPress. There are no plans to make it part of the core codebase for WordPress.org, but a plugin is a good start. The even bigger news is that PubSubHubbub has come to Wordpress.com, too.

To Ubuntu αλλάζει εμφάνιση και εγκαταλείπει το γνωστό καφέ θέμα του (καιρός ήταν) - από Neowin.net Beginning with the release of Lucid Lynx (10.04 LTS), which is expected to hit PCs at the end of April, Ubuntu's UI will no longer look like it came about as a result of a bad accident in the ladies room. Gone are the days of overly suffocating brown-ness. From here onward, Ubuntu will come in a new theme, called "Light." The official word was posted on Ubuntu's Wiki. The new theme has more of a professional, 21st century feel to it. "The new style of Ubuntu is driven by the theme 'Light'. The decision of branding Ubuntu as "Light" comes from the idea of "warmth and clarity." Logos: Boot Screen: Desktop (notice the lack of bottom task bar):
