Sound Waves Replacing Wipers

Theoretically, high-frequency sound waves would blast water droplets and other debris from the window. It is a high frequency electronic system that never fails and is constantly active. Nothing will attach to the windscreen. As of right now, it is just an idea in the making and might not make it to the larger market in several years. Obviously there are a lot of things to work out with this system especially the software development and since it is yet another electronic part of the car, it has the potential to be hacked and controlled by outsiders. It might seem like no big deal but in rainy or snowy weather, it would definitely be a necessity. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration told The Huffington Post that McLaren's proposed technology "has not been fully developed," and that "there is not enough information available at this time to determine whether the product would meet existing, applicable federal motor vehicle standards."

Think Yourself Well

When people are doing everything "right" -- eating veggies, avoiding red meat and processed foods, exercising, sleeping well and so forth -- we should expect them to live long, prosperous lives and die of old age while peacefully slumbering, right? So why is it that so many health nuts are sicker than other people who pig out, guzzle beer and park in front of the TV or the internet phone? I have come to believe that the purely physical realm of illness -- the part you can diagnose with laboratory tests -- is only part of the equation. It's a big part, mind you, but not the whole shebang. Many people have never heard of Ayurvada and that is a very sad thing. Western medicine has taken precedence of the other arts of healing and many of those people that practice their medicine in the East have become known as quacks and not real doctors. The mind of a human is connected to the body in more ways and more intimated than we have ever thought. The lifestyle choices you make can optimize your body's relaxation response, counteract the stress response and result in physiological changes, leading to better health. The body doesn't fuel how we live our lives. Instead, it is a mirror of how we live our lives. So if you're not feeling well, despite doing all the "right" things, take a deep breath and ask yourself: What do I think might lie at the root of my illness? What does my body need in order to heal? If you're honest with yourself, the answers could save your health -- and your life.
