For diabetics, an under-dosing insulin injection before eating is hazardous. The resulting hyperglycemia (high levels of sugar in the blood), if persistent, can result in damage to nerves, blood vessels and organs which can lead to more serious complications such as higher susceptibility to infections, inability to heal,
One problem with serial data cabling is capacitance between either the signal and return lines or signal and shield such as with coaxial cables. My idea is to use decoy signals to absorb the brunt of transmission line capacitance,
This is the transmission of electricity via wireless, which has been brought about by the use of diesel and petrol powered cars.
Inventor Alleyne developed this clever innovation, which is a specialized device that easily removes thumbtacks from bulletin boards and securely retains them as to prevent them from falling onto the floor.
The inhabitants of the earth will continue to experience a declining availability of fossil fuels. As consumption of these fossil fuels contribute to global warming through emissions of CO2 there is a rising demand for “cleaner” energy.
The Pulsed Turbine Transvector Jet Propulsion concept is a recently developed adaptation to the Pulsed Turbine Rotor Engine and The Pulsed Turbine Jet Propulsion concept that was introduced to the 2008 Create the Future Design Contest. Please click on hyperlink below:

Material System
A material system on the basis of a force-fit between pvc (polyvinylchlorid) and carbon fibres has
been intelligently introduced in a geometric development of a shading construction which unfolds an apparent functionality with temperature change.
Principle of Lamellae
Based on the principle of a bi-material effect, a closed roof construction opens with temperature change. Deformations of each roof element occur creating openings in the roof structure. The designed size of the elements can vary within the populated structure.
An apparatus and method for capturing 3 dimensional tomographically registered full spectrum computer digitized images of internal structures of specimens is described. Instrument Collected 2D data slices are later processed to create extremely intricate 3D models in full color.
Moving water from an available reservoir source to a distant storage location for irrigation distribution, or other use, without incurring high initial system costs, installation expenses and recurring operational costs is a fundamental problem found throughout the world; in particular Ethiopia, Niger and other drought stricken areas.
