AWIATOR, a research program with amazing results.
Our friends at Airbus have been undergoing some testing during the past few months that may end up with the application of some pretty neat devices on future commercial aircraft.
In fact, these tests were the last ones to be done in order to complete a research program called AWIATOR, which stands for Advanced Wing with [...]

Wavefront guided LASIK comparison. Femtosecond laser-created flaps. Mechanical keratome-created flaps.

Bike Hugger Buddy Flaps
Out of necessity, cyclists in rainy, wet climates use all sorts of inventive materials to create mud flaps for bike fenders. Old water bottles, duct tape, political signs, sump pump hose, and so on. Fender flaps are even a fashion statement. The purpose of the front flap is to protect your feet and in the back to protect your buddy from the spray, mud, and debris. On group rides, showing up without an adequate flap will result in a shunning to the back, strong comments, even getting yelled at
Bike Hugger Flaps Arrived
The fellas over at Buddy Flaps came through with some fancy BikeHugger branded fender flaps. As I’ve written in the past - nothing says “I’m a nice guy” more than a good fender flap.

Those “Elmer Fudd” Caps
It’s raining in Philly and cold — Weather.com tells me that it is currently 45 degrees but that it feels like 39. Fans are bundled up in sweatshirts and parkas and encased in brightly colored plastic ponchos. Pretty much your standard fare. But the players are wearing something a little different: baseball caps with ear flaps.

ABC Kids Expo 2008: 123 Caterpillar and ABC Snake Books
123 Caterpillar and ABC Snake are toddler books that illustrate numbers and the alphabet by expanding like an accordion. Every parent needs a quick distraction for their kids to put in their diaper bag, and these books seem like they'd do the trick. And they also feature my favorite toddler book activity - flaps to lift. Both books are small, contained and have flaps to lift. The ABC book has the letters on one side and an animal on the opposite side that begins with that letter. The 123 Cater
