A free market alternative to trash disposal... this is cleverly referred  to as a Muffin Monster (check out the case studies)

A new source of energy... the energy catalyzer
The energy catalyzer was demonstrated publicly for first time on the 14th January 2011. According to its inventor Andrea Rossi it has a closed reactor of steel that is loaded with nickel powder plus secret catalysts and pressurized with hydrogen.
It’s ‘ignited’ by heating from two electrical resistances. In a copper tube around the reactor, water heated by the reactor is flowing.
The heat is generated from an unknown reaction, according to Rossi himself, and according to Professor Sven Kullander and Associate Professor Hanno Essén probably a nuclear reaction.

A house that transforms into a fortress.

 The author of the article might not think the United States need a safe house... but with the growing police state. This house just might be perfect for the next 10-20 years.

Sometimes the neatest things are revealed by the most unlikely people and this is one of those, a refrigerator for the third world... and just in time for America's entry into the third world! Now we just need a version big enough to fit 18 cu. ft. worth of stuff!

What makes this story particularly funny is the young lady who invented it. Was refused from a engineering course because she wasn't "qualified".

Amazing solar powered fridge 

I'm thinking this could be a great idea for air conditioning a small home.

New ideas for the food business...

 This past week a popular restaurant in town that had just opened up not six months before... and was very popular, closed it's doors. Restaurants seem to be popping up and disappearing faster than ever... and older establishments are just disappearing. The restaurant business is getting extremely difficult and with the rising commodity prices and inflation starting to rear it's ugly head, restaurants, who typically operate on very tight margins find themselves in a bind. And when one looks at the ingredients of the typical corporate restaurant there is indeed room for entrepreneurs. Here are some interesting new free market ideas popping up to meet the needs of the food consumer of 2011.
