    Wow some great aircraft photos and info popping up here. I'm surprised of the knowledge on the Arrow outside of Canada. Thanks guys that in itself is a great reconition of a great bird and it's designers. The other great contribution in aircraft technology on this side of the border is the modifications that were made on the F86. The Canadian platform surprised the hell out of alot of so called experts on this aircraft. One of my favourite jet aircraft. Just a beautiful piece of art.

    Stare at the three coloured dots on her nose for about 30 sec. Then look at something white, like a wall for example, and blink.

    Awww, why did you do that? You've robbed us an excuse to stare at a pretty woman and pass it off as legitimate scientific investigation.

    Amateur inventor Tao Xiangli prepares to operate his homemade submarine in a lake on the outskirts of Beijing, on September 3, 2009. Tao, 34, made a fully functional submarine from old oil barrels and tools which he bought at a second-hand market. He took 2 years to invent and test the submarine which costs 30,000 yuan ($4,385).
