Inventor Roger Sawyer  want's to conquer gravity.  If the video above is legit, it looks like he is on his way. He has come up with a theory and working prototype and is looking to take it to the next step.  So far his theory has been scoffed at by the scientists and space agencies around the world.  This doesn't seem to phase Sawyer who also reports that the Chinese is working on a prototype of their own.

Looks pretty cool, hopefully this will shut Avery Brooks up.

Update

New Scientist has a much more indepth article here.

With most Americans outraged over the behavior of the Federal Reserve and the part it has played in the bailouts of huge institutions in the financial and automotive industries, Ron Paul introduced H.R. 1207, which would have required a full audit of the Federal Reserve and its activities, which crosses international lines.

There are numerous reports of a far nastier flu like illness striking the Ukraine. The disease may or may not be swine flu or an as yet unidentified pneumonia illness.

The idea of a gore fest for Halloween has bored me of late, I found myself digging for a good supernatural thriller last night and came across this indie.  Done in the style of Blair Witch this flick follows a paranomal investigation in 2002 which killed the team of investigators. 

The investigation follows the team as they spend 3 days in the Masterson house. A notoriously haunted home which was the scene of a number of grisly murders several years before.
