Midwest recovers from snow storm, restores power pictures -
[ Utility crews worked overtime Saturday and Sunday to restore electrical service to thousands of customers still blacked out by the Midwest's first big snowstorm of the season. ]
Somewhere I've read that a snowstorm is God's way of saying "take some days off". I can understand that. But when this snowstorm knocks out power and turns off lights,
is it God's way of saying "take some days off and love thy spouse"?
In this contest you are asked to photoshop anything connected to a recent Midwest snowstorm and power problems. E.g. feel free to create advertisements for any Midwest businesses / services that adjust to snowstorm and power problems.
Portable Power System pictures - US Department of Defense announced the open competition for the best design of a portable power system for troopers. The requirements are: the device has to weigh within 8 pounds and be able to power most electronic equipment - radios, global positioning systems, night vision devices - for a single trooper for a period of four days. The new power generator device will replace the current wearable power systems used the US army - they weigh over 19 pounds and include battery pack and solar panel generator with the accessories. DOD will announce the three winners in 2008, and the chosen design will get a $1 million check for the exclusive right to use the design for mass production in the US military.
Design or place any portable power system on animals and people. Some examples can be bugs powered by batteries, elephants wearing solar panels, and people having carrying small power plants on their backs. Your power system can be actually carried, worn, or built in the animal / person like in the example with batteries.
Light-Powered Insects pictures -
[ Malaysia is not a country I know much about, but it turns out
tourists love it for Malaysia's most famous insects, a colony glowing of fireflies - many tourists take a
night canoe ride to see the twinkling fireflies near the mouth of the
Selangor river. But due to recent pollution in Malaysia firefly
colonies are not twinkling as much any more, and Malaysian authorities
are concerned. ]
There are two possible sides to this story:
1) Fireflies went on strike and demand their share of tourism proceeds (we ain't burnin' our asses for nothin')
2) Malaysia got so polluted fireflies are coughing dirt and their lights are covered with chemical wastes. The only chance they start glowing again is if the area becomes a bit more polluted with radioactive waste.
In this contest you are asked to help insects keep the lights on. Add light-producing technological
devices to any insects. Mini lamps, flashlights, projectors - insects
need your help to get enlightened.
