"Wireless electricity could change the world"

Intel cuts electric cords with wireless power system AN FRANCISCO (AFP) - Intel on Thursday showed off a wireless electric power system that analysts say could revolutionize modern life by freeing devices from transformers and wall outlets.

Intel chief technology officer Justin Rattner demonstrated a Wireless Energy Resonant Link as he spoke at the California firm's annual developers forum in San Francisco.

Electricity was sent wirelessly to a lamp on stage, lighting a 60 watt bulb that uses more power than a typical laptop computer.

Most importantly, the electricity was transmitted without zapping anything or anyone that got between the sending and receiving units.

"The trick with wireless power is not can you do it; it's can you do it safely and efficiently," Intel researcher Josh Smith said in an online video explaining the breakthrough.

"It turns out the human body is not affected by magnetic fields; it is affected by elective fields. So what we are doing is transmitting energy using the magnetic field not the electric field."

Examples of potential applications include airports, offices or other buildings that could be rigged to supply power to laptops, mobile telephones or other devices toted into them.

The technology could also be built into plugged in computer components, such as monitors, to enable them to broadcast power to devices left on desks or carried into rooms, according to Smith.

"Initially it eliminates chargers and eventually it eliminates batteries all together," analyst Rob Enderle of Enderle Group said of Intel's wireless power system.

"That is potentially a world changing event. This is the closest we've had to something being commercially available in this class."

Previous wireless power systems consisted basically of firing lightning bolts from sending to receiving units.

Smith says Intel's wireless power system is still in an early stage of development and much research remains before it can be brought to market.

Rattner spoke of technological transformations he expects by the year 2050.

"You'd like to cut the last cord," Smith said.

"It's great that we have wireless email and wireless internet and stuff like that but at the end of the day it would be nice to have wireless recharge as well."

no air lyrics

Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air If I should die before I wake It's 'cause you took my breath away Losing you is like living in a world with no air Oh I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave My heart won't move, it's incomplete Wish there was a way that I can make you understand But how do you expect me to live alone with just me 'Cause my world revolves around you It's so hard for me to breathe [Chorus:] Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air Can't live, can't breathe with no air It's how I feel whenever you ain't there It's no air, no air Got me out here in the water so deep Tell me how you gonna be without me If you ain't here, I just can't breathe It's no air, no air No air, air ooohhh No air, air ooohhh No air, air ooohhh No air, air I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew Right off the ground to float to you There's no gravity to hold me down for real But somehow I'm still alive inside You took my breath, but I survived I don't know how, but I don't even care So how do you expect me to live alone with just me 'Cause my world revolves around you It's so hard for me to breathe [Chorus] Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air Can't live, can't breathe with no air It's how I feel whenever you ain't there It's no air, no air Got me out here in the water so deep Tell me how you gonna be without me If you ain't here, I just can't breathe It's no air, no air No air, air ooohhh No air, air ooohhh No air, air ooohhh No air, air No more ooohhh It's no air, no air ooohhh [Chorus x2] Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air Can't live, can't breathe with no air It's how I feel whenever you ain't there It's no air, no air Got me out here in the water so deep Tell me how you gonna be without me If you ain't here, I just can't breathe It's no air, no air No air, air ooohhh No air, air ooohhh No air, air ooohhh No air, air Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air Can't live, can't breathe with no air It's how I feel whenever you ain't there It's no air, no air Got me out here in the water so deep Tell me how you gonna be without me If you ain't here, I just can't breathe It's no air, no air no air, air no air, air no air, air no air, air

My camera officially stopped functioning.

Actually, it is taking pictures, but its not connecting to my notebook. luckily I have a 1GB memory card. Thus, I can keep on taking pixs till I buy another camera. If you have any suggestion about a good camera, give me a shout.

Our First Harvest 2008

We had fun gardening this year. More to come.

Oh yes I did it on my first try!

Couple days after I took my driving test, I checked my mail box and found a hand written mail for me. I was very happy thinking someone from home was missing me, I even overlooked the postage that reads USA. I carefully opened the mail with my bare hands. Once I opened it, I went "Wow, they make cards for new drivers" Ooo this is sweet. Thanks to my driving teacher. Isn't this cute? Thanks to the people that helped me achieve this goal. My hubby I know there were hard times especially when we ...., you know what I mean "crazy" Lol. Seriously I was not sure to get it on my first try. You gave me good tips that I"ll always remember. To Camie, thanks for coming and taking me out and never took my offer for the gas even though the gas price raised like crazy. You were calm and that calmed me too. I'm really happy to be a licensed driver.

Out Yesterday by myself!

Yesterday I decided to go out and explore alone. I left the kids with my sister Tamko, and off to the outside world. It was sunny; yet I could feel the cool air blowing near my chocolate ears. As I browse via the shopping center, I came across a woman who visited South Africa and many other African countries but never Namibia. She was surprised to learn that I was from Namibia. "I always wanted to visit Namibia." She said, sounding disappointed. I told her that she can still make it. She gave me a friendly smile and concluded, "Namibia is on my list for the next trip." As we parted, I bumped myself in some stylish ladies bags. I threw one in my shopping cart and proceeded. I should do this more often.
