this issue of time with the main article being the top 50 inventions of the year has some really interesting reads
first of is the main topic itself and I would like to enumerate the one's that caught my attention
group 1: clones!!!
#3 the synthetic cell
#12 lab-grown lungs
and #37 the 3-d bioprinter ( aka instant organ maker )
special mention: #24 beef fat powered amtrak XD, #16 faster growing salmon (the precursor of the zerg I tell you!!!)
group 2: goat's progeny
#7 lifeguard robot
#9 english teaching robot
#13 the lying/deceitful robot (from the description it seems to act as a ninja spy robot or something)
#14 the sarcasm detector (I believe this was already posted before but adding it anyway)
#31 google's driverless car
group 3: warhammer 40ish (and all other general war gear stuff XD)
#4 the x-51a waverider (not a plane but a hypersonic bomb I think)
#28 fluid-blade disablement tool
#29 martin jetpack
#26 eLegs Exoskeleton
and its cousin
#39 the XOS 2 aka the iron man suit!!!
#36 STS-111 instant infrastructure (just one letter off!!!)
#40-42 various body powered devices
#46 X-flex blast protection (plascrete?!)
misc
#2 the almost waterless washing machine
#6 sony alpha a55 camera "the camera that never blinks"
#22 Sugru - something like alchemical clay
#23 the PLASTIC BOTTLE BOAT - I want to build one XD
#38 spray on fabric ...
#50 kickstarter - a webpage that is every starting inventor/entrepreneur should go to
AWESOME:
#49 the mosquito laser/AMS/ANTI-MOSQUITO SYSTEM - I NEED THIS!!!

#43 less dangerous explosives - PUSSIES!!!
(lol joke actually I also appreciate the fact that your bombs would accidentally blow up on you XD )
# 44 terrafugia transition an air worthy car - not original XP
the issue also has a lengthy article on marijuana for those that are interested and also a small one about a book that talks about the Philippines "addiction" to basketball among other good reads.
