Have you ever wondered how Pringles get Pringle-shaped? Or how about pretzels? How is any machine able to mass produce the food and products we love so much?
These mesmerizing animated gifs show just how it’s done for 22 different everyday items… you won’t be able to look away. (Seriously, it’s going to be extremely difficult to stop watching these.)
No matter how strange this food looks on conveyer belts or underneath baking lights, I would still eat it. Who cares if chicken nuggets are made out of paste that’s squirted out by huge machines? They’re still delicious. Share these awesome animated .gifs with others. Your entire friend list is going to be hypnotized.

U.S. Navy researchers announced this week that they have managed to successfully convert sea water into usable fuel for ships and aircraft. To do this, they extract carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas simultaneously seawater and then use a catalytic converter to create the fuel that resembles (and odors) as well as the true essence. Continue reading for a video and information supplémentaires.Selon dvice, "the benefits of fuel-based seawater is twofold. First, the ships do not need to be redesigned in order to to use the new fuel-based seawater, since it is essentially the same. Second, the possibility of creating fuel from all that water around the aircraft carrier means self-sufficiency. The U.S. Navy aircraft carrier plans to be able to create their own fuel, fuel for aircraft. Oil so long! "

Five-year-old living in San Diego Kristoffer Von Hassel , his father's Xbox Live account without the correct password managed to enter, Microsoft's most important is a critical vulnerability in one of the services provided has also been discovered. Yapamayınca with the wrong password input, a second encounter with password authentication screen Von Hassel, enough to fill the space key areas (spacebar) presses saw his father's account can enter smoothly.
This important weakness father who learned from his son Robert Von Hassel , open Microsoft as a security expert said the details. Acting on this, Microsoft is closing the gap as well as the little boy's name in Microsoft products to those problems in exploring thanked page added.
Microsoft also discovered a critical error in the small Kristoffer $ 50 prize, an annual four free games and free Xbox Live subscription as a gift learned.
Altaeros Energies , a company that builds wind turbines, has completed the design for highest wind turbine, which is located at a height of 305 meters above the ground. The project, called BAT (BUOY Airborne Turbine), is the first floating wind turbine (floating) in air and mounted in Alaska.
This solution is considered extremely flexible, inexpensive and ideal for communities in remote areas without access to a conventional power supply. The turbine can provide enough energy to power more than 12 ordinary houses with all necessary utilities. It can be transported and set up quickly without the need for large cranes and tall or strong foundations that can prevent wind projects in some areas more difficult to access.
This new model can successfully replace wind generator power generators fired at much lower prices. Target customers include remote communities and islands with small mining or oil and gas, farms, telecommunications companies, organizations, disaster relief, and military bases.
The system uses an inflatable balloon filled with helium, which can be raised at high altitudes, where winds are stronger and more consistent. The balloon actually a small balloon is anchored to the ground with high strength cables that send and electricity from the earth. They are calculated to withstand the wind storm intensity level for tens of years, can support other communication equipment have heavy and multiple security features, including the provision of a slow descent to the ground. The pilot project in Alaska is more than 80 feet taller than the tallest wind turbine mounted far (Denmark, the Østerild, Vestas V164-8.0 MW, with a height of 220 meters).
Could this be the future of wind power or green?
When Porkchop was brought into One Tail At A Time in the Lincoln Square neighborhood of Chicago, workers believed him to be approximately 6 years-old and fairly healthy. He seemed like a relatively normal case at first. It wasn’t until his foster mom took him to the vet for some urinary tract issues that she realized just what horrors Porkchop had lived through.
If you’d like to donate to the Chicago One Tail At A Time shelter that rescued Porkchop, please visit this donation page. Or, you can help buy items off of this Amazon Wish List for pups in need.
There are so many animals out there that need loving homes. Help them find a forever family!
The Saudi royal family announced yesterday its plans to build the world's tallest building which will be over a mile high (5,280 feet). It will be located outside of the port city of Jeddah and will create a new city of 80,000 residents.
Kingdom Tower in Saudi Arabia will be 275-stories tall when it is completed and consist of hotels, offices, luxury apartments and a shopping center. The structure will be twice the height of the world's current tallest skyscraper, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai (which tops out at 2,717 ft). The Kingdom Tower project is so large that it'll cost $30 billion to construct. To get to the top from the ground floor, an elevator ride would take an estimated 12 minutes to ascend.
Workers at the tower's site, in Jeddah, started driving huge foundation piles 330 feet into the sand last year. But it was unclear if the building itself would ever emerge—or if, like Chicago's Spire, it would remain a gaping hole in the middle of the city. Here's what work at the site looked like in 2012:
there are plenty of unanswered questions about Kingdom. Amazingly, no one is quite sure how living at 3,000 feet will affect humans. It's also unclear how elevators inside the building will work, since the current weight of elevator cable makes it impossible to support above roughly 2,000 feet.

Adrian Gill—one half of Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill Architecture, who designed the tower—had the following to say about the unknowns:
There may be a limit to the rapid change in height the inner ear can stand. At extreme heights, an elevator might need to be designed to go slower than one might want, or to rest at a middle floor. But that's not something condo buyers are likely to favor. Asked if he's ever worried about the discovery of an unforeseen challenge or phenomenon only after a tower has topped out, Gill smiles, pauses, and says simply: "Yeah."
If I had to get trapped on an uninhabited island, I’d wish for Big Major Cay island in the Bahamas. You see I wouldn’t technically be alone on the island, I’d be sharing it with the happiest pigs ever. Pigs that love nothing more than a good swim. Yes… swim.
These swimming pigs have become so famous that the island is unofficially known as Pig Beach or Pig Island by the locals…although, personally I’d have gone for The Bay of Pigs.
These pictures really don’t do justice to just how much fun these pigs are having in the sea. So check out this video below. It’s seriously the single greatest thing you’ll ever see.
