These crazy swiss are trying to create an intrarticular turbine, to generate electricity from the heart -- and then feed back into the heart, to make it beat (via a pace maker).

It's almost like the perpetual motion folk never learn.

Horse Power Out. Food Over Time In.

Horse Power. An archaic measurement of power based on a bit more than a draft horse can sustain. Normally defined as 735.499 Watts, but in the case of a boiler horse power -- it's 13.4 times that. But how much power is that really? Well, the truth is no one knows. This is why I'm introducing a new system: Food over Time (or FOT).

FOT is quite simple. You get the energy content of a certain food, put it over a time period. And you have a robust and comprehensible unit. For instance:

The Suzuki FZ6 can produce a maximum of ~1,700 big macs a minute of power.

A trained athlete can briefly output the power of ~76 Subway six-inch Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki.

Trivia:
The Hiroshima bomb (Little Boy) had the energy of ~9,727,000 cheese cakes.  (Which makes me wonder why so many are starving in Japan)

Motorcycle ramp idea

I present to you the best adrenaline ride in the world. It lets you experience doing an insane motorcycle-ramp-jump and soaring in the air .. except you don't need to have any skill to land. There is a giant overhead cable system for you and the bike which move with you and lock before you hit the water (Water just in case it screws up badly).
