I know an author!

Ok a work friends wife has published her first book, Holycross (search for Holycross). This book outlines the history of the O’Mara family from Tipperary in Ireland. Through civil unrest, murders, trials and then to the Van Dieman’s Land (Tasmania) colony.

Judith did all the research, most of the illustrations, the cover design, layout and got the book self published. I am in awe of the time, effort and quality that Judith has put into this.

I am still reading, so you can expect a full review soon.

Bose Suspension System

Ok so here is something a little different. Bose, the famous speaker makers, have come up with a new suspension system for cars.

This looks really cool, and active suspension system that uses linear electromagnetic motors to control each wheel. Each of the linear motors can push the wheel towards the ground or pull it up to the car, allowing all the bumps and potholes to be smoothed out. This will also prevent body roll when cornering and pitch when accelerating or braking.
