Plug-in hybrids differ from the current hybrid vehicles in that they can be recharged externally, from an ordinary power outlet.
In a conventional hybrid the battery is recharged from power generated by its wheels.
plug-in hybrids that run on lithium-ion batteries/last longer, more expensive/, instead of the nickel-metal hydride
In electric mode, the plug-in Prius gets 99.9 miles a gallon, according to a gauge on a screen in the middle of the dashboard. But it cannot go very far: the plug-in hybrid’s two batteries hold enough power for only seven miles, 4hour cahrge
The plug-in Prius can stay in electric mode until 62 miles per hour, versus around 30 miles per hour for the conventional Prius,
By contrast, G.M. claims that the Volt will be able to hold a charge equal to 40 miles, after a six-hour charge.

new heart

Medicine's dream of growing new human hearts and other organs to repair or replace damaged ones received a significant boost Sunday when researchers at the University of Minnesota reported success in creating a beating rat heart in a laboratory.Experts not involved in the Minnesota work called it "a landmark achievement" and "a stunning" advance. But they and the Minnesota researchers cautioned that the dream, if it is ever realized, is still at least 10 years away.
Jeep Renegade concept looks like something out of Star Wars in design. It features a lithium-ion battery pack and a small displacement clean-burning diesel engine. Chrysler claims 110 miles per gallon.

If you're younger than 35, you'll probably live long enough to put David Levy's prediction to the test. Levy says that by 2050 we'll be creating robots so lifelike, so imbued with human-seeming intelligence and emotions, as to be nearly indistinguishable from real people. And we'll have sex with these robots. Some of us will even marry them. And it will all be good.
Levy lays out his vision of a Brave New Carnal World in Love and Sex With Robots: The Evolution of Human-Robot Relationships

In their new careers, Google alumni like Sacca are increasingly turning to former colleagues for money and ideas. They help each other line up investors, spot hot entrepreneurs and hire talented engineers and managers.

Some Google vets hope to turn their loose affiliation into the next powerful network in Silicon Valley, where webs of money and connections have helped build many companies.
"We are planning to bring all the ex-Googlers who are starting companies and investing in companies together to tighten up the network," said Aydin Senkut, a former sales manager who joined Google in 1999 when it had 62 employees. Senkut left in 2005 to become a full-time angel investor.

It often pays to stick together in Silicon Valley. PayPal, the online payments system, spawned a group of serial entrepreneurs who went on to finance some of the hottest Web 2.0 companies, among them Facebook, YouTube, LinkedIn and Slide. Many PayPay alums invest in each other's companies. A co-founder, Peter Thiel, who now runs a $3 billion hedge fund and venture firm in San Francisco, is the godfather of what people jokingly call the PayPal Mafia

top stories 2007

Here are 2007's top 10 stories, as voted by AP members:
1. VIRGINIA TECH KILLINGS: Seung-Hui Cho, 23, who had avoided court-ordered mental health treatment despite a history of psychiatric problems, killed two fellow students in a dormitory on April 16, detoured to mail a hate-filled video of himself to NBC News, then shot dead 30 students and professors in a classroom building before killing himself. It was the worst mass shooting in modern U.S. history.

2. MORTGAGE CRISIS: A record-setting wave of mortgage foreclosures, coupled with a steep slump in the housing market, buffeted financial markets, caused multibillion-dollar losses at major banks and investment firms, and became an issue in the presidential campaign.

3. IRAQ WAR: The "surge" that sent more U.S. troops to Iraq was credited with helping reduce the overall level of violence. But thousands of Iraqis and hundreds of U.S. personnel were killed nonetheless during the year, and Iraqi political leaders struggled to make meaningful progress toward national reconciliation.

4. OIL PRICES: Oil prices soared to record highs, at one point reaching nearly $100 a barrel. The high prices, which burdened motorists and owners of oil-heated homes, nudged Congress to pass an energy bill that ordered an increase in motor vehicles' fuel efficiency.

5. CHINESE EXPORTS: An array of Chinese exports were recalled, ranging from toys with lead paint to defective tires to tainted toothpaste and food. Despite the high-profile problems, America's trade deficit with China was running at record-high levels.

6. GLOBAL WARMING: Warnings about the consequences of global warming gained intensity with new reports from scientific panels and a Nobel Prize to Al Gore for his environmental crusading that included the film "An Inconvenient Truth." Across the U.S., many state governments sought to cap emissions blamed for global warming.

7. BRIDGE COLLAPSE: An Interstate 35 bridge over the Mississippi River in Minneapolis collapsed during the evening rush hour on Aug. 1, killing 13 people and injuring about 100. The disaster fueled concern about possible structural flaws in other bridges nationwide.

8. PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN: In a yearlong drama with shifting subplots, large fields in both major parties battled for support ahead of the caucuses and primaries that will decide the 2008 presidential nominees. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama led among the Democrats; some polls showed five Republicans with double-digit support.

9. IMMIGRATION DEBATE: A compromise immigration plan, backed by President Bush and Democratic leaders, collapsed in Congress due to Republican opposition. The plan would have enabled millions of illegal immigrants to move toward citizenship, while also bolstering border security. The issues remained alive in the presidential campaign.

10. IRAN'S NUCLEAR PROGRAM: Worried that the ultimate goal is a nuclear arsenal, the United States and other countries pressed Iran to halt uranium enrichment. Iran said it never had a weapons program. A U.S. intelligence report concluded there was such an effort, but it stopped in 2003.

A one-day pass costs about $1.40; a weekly pass nears $7; an annual pass runs about $41. Inexpensive rental rates are charged on top of that, although the first half-hour of each trip is free. A deposit of about $200 is required in case the bike isn't returned. The bikes are unlocked with a swipe of a credit card or a pre-paid card. More than 100,000 Parisians have bought a one-year pass since the program started in July, and city officials report that the bikes have been taken on nearly 4 million trips.	www.greendrinks.org

robot driven by internet
The regular Spykee is a Wi-Fi robo-gadget that can serve as a spy camera, controlled via any Internet connection and with a motion-detection sensor, that can send you instant video or photos by e-mail.
Since it has a wireless link to the Internet, you can give it commands over any personal computer that is on the Web. From your hotel room, you can send Spykee around your home taking pictures or functioning as a Web cam. That one, which is an MP3 player on the side, will run you €300.
The second version, Spykee Cell, has Bluetooth wireless technology instead of Wi-Fi, and that lets you control its functions from your mobile phone.

BEIJING (AP) -- A cloned pig whose genes were altered to make it glow fluorescent green has passed on the trait to its young, a development that could lead to the future breeding of pigs for human transplant organs, a Chinese university reported.
''Continued development of this technology can be applied to ... the production of special pigs for the production of human organs for transplant,''

Russia is leading the race to complete a manned mission to Mars and could land a Russian on the Red Planet by 2025, a leading scientist was quoted as saying on Tuesday.

We lost the race to the moon," Zelyony said.
The United States achieved that goal on July 20, 1969, when Apollo 11 commander Neil Armstrong became the first man to set foot on the moon.
The last manned US mission to the moon was the December 1972 flight of Apollo 17.

Russia after communism

But there is something in these halls that tells a story about Russia itself, a monument to communist days, when underground palaces, glittering in chandeliers, decked in mosaics and frescoes and Stalin-era sculpture, were built for the common commuters.Now they are shabby and cramped, the bulbs burning out in the chandeliers, the halls a miserable jam of too many frazzled bodies. Up above, wild Moscow rages along, lawless and mad, cold and rich
