Revamp - the solution to gun control controversy


The recent Connecticut School Shooting has not only appalled me but has also made me start to think. At this present day and age in which we can get a man on the moon, why can't we use technology to prevent further horrible acts like the recent school shooting?...

Skin Gun


The name is misleading in that it's not exactly a gun but more like an air brush.
The idea is simple. Use the patient's own stem cells, combine them in a solution in the gun, and then spray them onto the burned area. The result? Nothing short of a miracle...

Anti-Suicide Nasal Spray


I thought I was the only person experiencing thoughts of suicide and depression, but then I found out that every day a U.S. soldier commits suicide. In fact, the Army's suicide rate is at the highest level in history, with more American soldiers taking their own lives than being killed by the Taliban. The Pentagon reported in June that suicides among soldiers averaged one per day this year, surpassing the rate of combat fatalities. 

The U.S. Military has put $3 million into the research and development of an Anti-Suicide Nasal Spray, in order to try and dramatically reduce the number of soldiers committing suicide. The drug has almost immediate effect and has been in existence for over thirty years...

Future of Pet Cleaning Tech

Pet cleaning can be quite the chore.
But don't worry, as usual technology will attempt to bride the gap and make this chore into a an extremely complicated wired and noisy marvel of human ingenuity.
