I love technology. Many things that have been generated by technological. Have you thought of wearing a cloak that makes you invisible? Although the cloaks may sound like something from Harry Potter, researchers in London were today given the go ahead for a £4.9 million project to create a real invisibility suit. In Rowling's stories, Harry Potter uses his cloak to move around his school unseen.
Today, researchers at Imperial College said such a garment could soon become a reality. They hope to create a cloak from a new material that can manipulate light.
We can see an object when light hits an object, it bounces off the surface and into the eye and making the object visible. The invisibility cloak made from 'meta-material' would work by 'grabbing hold' of light waves and making them flow smoothly around an object, in the same way that water in a river flows round a stick.
Putting the cloak on would render the wearer invisible to the human eye. The team at Imperial College say the meta-material could have a range of other applications, including creating super-sensitive microscopes and airport security sensors that can spot tiny amounts of chemicals.
However, they admit the Harry Potter cloak is likely to generate the most interest. Sir John Pendry, who is leading the project, which is being funded by the Leverhulme Trust and will be carried out with the University of Southampton, said: 'We've shown that an optical invisibility cloak is theoretically possible - the big challenge now is to build it.'

Pacquiao vs Cotto
Labels: boxing
I saw a great fight: Manny Pacquiao vs Miguel Cotto. Pacquiao is too strong for Miguel Cotto. Aggressive and fast throughout the fight, Pac-Man finally has the right to the world boxing championships WBO Welter class in MGM Grand Garden Arena,Las Vegas
But Cotto toughness begun to decline since the fourth round. Pacquiao with a constant speed and blows a deadly combination makes Cotto cornered for several times.
In the 12th round, Pac-man's punch combinations again makes Cotto again cornered on the ring. When Cotto almost fell referee Kenny Bayless stopped the game. Referee Kenny Bayless stopped the fight 55 seconds into the final round and Pacquiao TKO win declared. Manny Pacquiao became a five-weight, five-time world champion with a stunning victory over Miguel Cotto.
Cotto's face was swollen, blood was flowing from his nose and his cuts, and he simply could not stop Pacquiao from bouncing inside and throwing both hands at will.

ball is round
The ball is round. Every thing can happen. No big team that unbeaten. Like in premiership this season. The big five: Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Arsenal cannot make perfect result like last season (in the same match). Manchester United was defeat by new comer: Burnley. Chelsea was defeat by Wigan Atletic, Liverpool and Arsenal have their 2 lose. In europe, Liverpool was defeat by Fiorentina in Artemio Franchi. So every thing can happen.
There are two team, big team from Spain, Barcelona and Real 'new galacticos' Madrid that still unbeaten. But there is long season, with many games, local, regional and international match. So, how long they can make a positive result...
Btw, do you like football?...
