New iPhone 5 Features Concept HD

We love ourselves a good concept video, and this one’s as awesome as it is completely off-the-wall. The iPhone 5 concept mockup within the video features some incredible features like fingerprint scanning, wireless/pod-less charging and a Siri assistant that communicates with other smart pieces of technology. Perhaps the most insane feature is the “rubberbanding hardware”. Pinch-to-zoom doesn’t enlarge the video on the display, it enlarges the device and transforms it in to an iPad mini and a full-size mini.

Slot Car Gallery

I have been racing and collecting HO scale slot cars since the 1960's, when I purchased my first Aurora Model Motoring set as a young boy. The Ford GT-40 and Lola GT that came with that original Aurora Model Motoring set are long gone now, but my love for the hobby continues to this day.

About fifteen years ago I decided to build a dedicated 4-lane HO slot car track, a complete landscaped layout with pit lanes and a large paddock area to display my growing collection of slot cars. ...

Customs BMW Car Tuning

BMW’s entry will be the E-Patrol (Human-Drone Pursuit Vehicle), which is a concept built on a modular structure with three different drones. In the case of a pursuit in heavy traffic, the patrol officer can deploy either the flying drone or one of the single-wheel drones to chase the suspect and report back to the officer. General Motors entered the contest with a Volt Squad — a three-vehicle fleet designed around the concept of observe, pursue and engage. Honda has two entries for 2012: the CHP Drone Squad, a vehicle-based-system for 2025, which is designed to work efficiently and seamlessly in the harsh environment of California...

learn english conversation

English conversation is quite different from English reading.  Conversation uses a different type of English, including different vocabulary. English conversation vocabulary is much more casual.  In English, this means we use more words of Saxon or Old English origin during conversation.  We also use more phrasal verbs (two or three word verbs). The difference between conversation and more formal English is one reason that even “advanced” students have difficulty with everyday conversations. The problem is that students learn more formal English in school.  Formal English tends to use more words...
