Virgin’s coconut-powered 747 completes first flight
Virgin’s coconut-powered 747 completes first flight:
Finally, mankind has the answer to that eternal question, how many coconuts does it take to go from London to Amsterdam? The answer: 150,000 — converted into biofuel and poured into a special 747, of course. Virgin Atlantic completed its first biofuel tests yesterday with solid results, using a mix of 20 percent coconut oil and 80 percent jet fuel to power a 747 — a first for the airline industry. There’s still a long way to go, of course — only one of the jet’s four tanks carried the alternative fuel, and even Richard Branson admits that giant coconut plantations devoted to airline fuel probably aren’t workable — but despite harsh criticism from skeptics, it’s still an impressive achievement. Branson says that although this test didn’t use a viable fuel, it’s a landmark proof-of-concept — and that next-generation biofuels made from algae may one day power all our aircraft. Sure, that’d be nice, but we’ll stick with tiki-power — anyone have a drink umbrella?

Apple begins cellphone recycling program
Apple begins cellphone recycling program:
In response to criticism from groups like Greenpeace, Apple has now implemented a new recycling program designed to reduce the amount of damage that mass consumption can cause. In addition to products like iPods, people will now be able to recycle cellphones, no matter who the manufacturer might be. You can send the devices to Apple in one of two ways – Either by dropping it off at an Apple Store near you, or mailing it to a central location.
If you choose the mail option you can specify any quantity of phones or iPods. You must then decide whether to use either a print-out label on your own packaging, or you can request a custom package shipped from Apple which will take 7 to 10 days to arrive. Both options are free of charge.
You can find more info about it right here.

Belt buckle with integrated toolkit
Belt buckle with integrated toolkit:
I traded in my old belt for one of these 686 “Snow Tool Belts” a couple weeks ago and I’m just loving it. Conceived of as a set of snowboard tools built into your belt, the buckle is actually two screwdrivers (Phillips and slot), a bottle opener and a hex socket wrench. It snaps off the thick, high-quality leather belt with four poppers so that you can deploy it without taking off your whole belt. I’ve just had my first occasion to use it — needed a Phillips to open the battery case of some electronics — and it was great, like I was still carrying a multitool (a habit I kicked after losing half-a-dozen of the expensive little bastards to the TSA). I’m not sure if this guy’ll survive airport security, but I’m gonna try it out this week in the UK, Germany and the US. Link
