GolfBoard: Electric Skateboard style golf caddy


The Golf Board is the newest and most innovative addition to golf since the graphite shaft, bringing modern technology to a traditional game.

Using the newest technology in electric power, Golf Board allows players to "Surf the Earth" by offering a smooth, fun, and effortless way to play the game they love, that they've never experienced before, all the while leaving behind less impact and damage from a standard golf cart.

Players carry their bag just as they would if they were walking and need only one free hand for the lightweight power controller.

ESA 'Cosmonauts' ready for Big Brother style Mars test

ESA 'Cosmonauts' ready for Mars test

A Belgian, two Frenchmen and a Colombian-Italian have agreed to be locked away in steel containers for 18 months to simulate a mission to Mars.

Their self-imposed exile will test the physical and mental requirements of ultra-long duration spaceflight.
The Europeans will join a predominantly Russian crew for the Mars500 project, which is due to start in May.

All the food and water needed for the "journey" will have to be loaded into the "spacecraft" before "departure". They will even carry out a simulated landing procedure.

After about 250 days, the crew will be split in two and three "cosmonauts" will move into a separate container to walk on the "surface of the Red Planet" wearing modified Russian Orlan spacesuits.

"I think you've got to be a little bit crazy to undertake this venture, but it's a healthy craziness," said Diego Urbina, a 26-year-old electronic engineer from Italy.

"I will definitely miss my family and friends, and Nature itself - all the things we take for granted here on Earth, such as the internet and girls. That's something I'll definitely miss."


Well, how human can you get? How were these people selected? Were they rejects from Big Brother?
