New Pacific Island Appears

New Pacific Island Appears off Tonga
This one-mile island has just appeared off of Tonga in the South Pacific according to The Telegraph.

For the last decade-plus we have been told the islands of the South Pacific are going to disappear due to global warming. Here’s a whole website devoted to the plight of Tuvalu. Ignore the fact that it hasn’t been updated since Nov. 20, 2010.

But what about the islands that are appearing? It sort of puts paid to the idea that “change” is a one-way street.

United Kingdom-based The Telegraph, yesterday, March 11, featured a nice story regarding the appearance of a new one-mile island off Tonga along with its exploration by Tonga residents Gianpiero Orbassano and Branko Sugar along with an unidentified friend.

Of course, maybe the island was there all along and is just moved around by some guy in its basement turning a giant wheel. No mention about any smoke monsters, though.

Exo Mark 4 Inspired By Katrina

Exo Mark 4 Inspired By KatrinaMichael McDaniel of Texas was angered as were most at the poor living conditions of the refugees of Hurricane Katrina.

Unlike most he decided to do something about and hence the  Reaction company and  the Exo Mark 4 disaster housing.

It’s a two-person, two-part composite shell that measures 9 feet 6 inches by 8 feet 4 inches and is 8 feet 4 inches tall. It weighs about 400 pounds. It features beds, heating and electricity.

One problem is that it gets very hot in the day time.  Here’s a thought, Michael, put anchor points on top and include a 8 feet 4 inch aluminum, or even plastic, frame for a reflective canopy to fit on them.
