Yahoo Rejects Microsoft bid
Yahoo has rejected Microsoft’s $44.6 billion takeover bid, says a Wall Street Journal source allegedly close to the deal. After a last-minute meeting yesterday, Yahoo’s board is said to have rebuffed the offer from Microsoft believing that the Windows developer is acting out of opportunism.
The buyout offer was an attempt to prey on Yahoo at a weak point in its history, the rumored insider says. Although the offer of $31 per share is significantly higher than Yahoo’s stock value at the time of the proposal, the search engine firm’s executives reportedly believe that this offer is undervalued and are waiting for a bid of $40 per share or more, which could raise the worth of the bid to $56 billion.

Titanium Spring Loaded Insoles
If you need a little eatra spring in your step these insoles have five titanium springs that not only cushion and support the foot. The suspension coils are only 1/4″ thick, making them just as suitable for athletic shoes as for work boots. The insoles return some of the energy of the downward footfall back up to the body for a “push off” with every stride. The titanium construction ensures the springs will never wear down or lose their shock-absorbing capability. Seven smaller springs under the ball of the foot further disperse the impact and cradle the foot.
Available for $29 about £15

Cheeseburger in a can
Check the worlds first burger in a can by Trekking-Mahlzeiten. To cook simply boil the can in water for a couple of minutes and its ready to eat. It has a shelf life of twelve months and does not require any refrigeration.
The most remarkable of Trekking-Mahlzeiten’s products is not the cheeseburger but Peronin, a complete food in a liquid form, marketed as “fuel for the bloodstream.” Peronin is the food of choice for athletes competing in extreme endurance events (triathlons, marathons, ironman contests, desert races), mountain climbers and adventure seekers. Unlike regular food, it does not first have to be decomposed in the stomach, but is assimilated directly. Whereas the body will assimilate less than 60 percent of the total calorie intake efficiently in extreme situations (cold, heat, fear and fatigue), Peronin delivers an outstanding 96 percent.

Cleaner Flying - A2 Hydrogen-Powered Hypersonic Airliner
The A2 designed to carry up to 300 passengers from Brussels to Sydney in under 4 hours. The speedy airliner will benefit from a 2-mode engine — turbojet and ramjet propulsion systems — that will make it both extremely efficient at slow speeds and able to reach top speeds with great ease. Used in quick succession, these 2 modes allow the A2 to seamlessly shift from Mach-2.5 to Mach-5; a cooling system wrapped around the engine — which includes an extra turbine compressor — prevents the turbines from getting excessively hot.
Reaction Engine says - Flying will never be faster — or greener
Supported in part by a grant from the EU’s Long-Term Advanced Propulsion Concepts and Technologies project (Lapcat), the Mach-5, or 3,400 mph, A2 concept is in many ways the spiritual successor of the late Concorde but differs in two important respects: range and engine efficiency.

A Paper Plane will be flying back to earth from the International Space Station
This think this story is fantastic if it is real.. The University of Tokyo & the folded paper plane society are planning to fly a special paper plane model back to earth from the International Space Station. The 30-40cm, 30 gram plane is constructed from paper that can withstand a mach 7 high velocity stream for 10 seconds. A test plane one fifth of the size withstood temperature of 300 degrees without burning up.
The group plan to launch the plane from International Space Station by throwing it and as it travels the 400kms back to earth the paper plane will reach speeds up to mach 20. Only after entering the earth’s atmosphere at an altitude of 80kms will it slow to a paltry mach 7. Has April Fool arrived a few months early?

The ILV uses a counter-rotating rotor lifting system and gets its power from two 105 horsepower, Hirth F-30, 2 cycle, 4 cylinder engines with dual ignition and forced air cooling. Engine power comes through two 2.64:1 engine gearboxes. If one of the engines fails, the other one can still sustain the flight. The ILV can soar over trees and houses requiring pilot skills equal only to riding a motor bike. Control of the ILV is obtained by simply shifting your body weight. The kit currently under development in the United States is dubbed PAM 200.
