my inventions
if i were to make this then i would make alot of money because who doesnt want a clone for themselves?
Anthony Felice Invention
A charcoal grill and a gas grill will be the cooking surfaces and there will be a bottomless soda fountain vending machine. There will be two TVs in it along with a Wii, Xbox, PS3, and a 360.
A nuclear fission reactor will power this devise and may explode. There is a 99.9825% fail rate on this device due to complexities.
Other than that i should be a millionare nahhh billionaire by tueday. This thing is only gunna cost like $12 and 43 cents.
phone
the phone is a going to be a flip phone and the inside screen is going to be a touch screen that has a keyboard. you can also watch live tv and movies and live sports events. this phone also has a teleport station that you can walk into it and you can pick on a place that you want to go to. if you want to go to hawaii you just click on a link, like on a computer and yo will get teleported there. if you want to go to game 7 of the nba finals you find yourself there in about 10 minutes.
also on this phone you can receive credits by how many miles you travel. the credits can be turned into money. which you can buy clothes, movies, songs from limewire, and tickets to concerts, and sporting events. this phone will have everything in it that you need. you can buy food. basically this phone, has a phone, computer, teleportation system and store inside of it.
the problems that i could see happening with this phone is that the teleportation system doesnt work. the computer part of it doesnt work, and the phone in general because there is so much stuff inside of it. the phone might be really slow because there is alot of memory going through it and it might freeze ever so often.
My Invention
This machine would be about the size of a closet so you could stand in it. You would say what you would like done, like change of clothes and hair and the voice activator would process it and you would then hit a button when your ready and in a blink of an eye its done.
I would want this to be invented, because it would make much more time in your day. In the morning you could wake up in the last minute and get ready in time and go to work or school. This personally would make my day much easier.
Any problems would be technical problems. If the machine would not work properly and give you funky outfits or anything related to that.
Christian Seeking Clown Launcher
inventionn.
There is nothing i could do to have magic be invented, it would never happen. It was the only thing at the moment that i could think of that i would want invented that is already.
If there was magic so many more people in this world be be happier then they are. Its not even like super powers, with magic you would have every supper power in the world.
Also if magic is invented, then everything that anyone wanted to be invented would be invented.
needed invention
-i would want this to be invented to stay awake. Being awake for 24 hours a day would make you be able to have time to do so much more to do so much more things that would need to be done.
-this pill could also have very bad side effects. the massive amount of caffeine could damage your body or maybe you could get insomnia from not sleeping for a week.

Tavares Hackers
Adrian Lamo is a former grey hat hacker. His bets know hacks were of the New York times and Microsoft. Also he is known for trying to identify computer flaws in fortune 500 company's.
An exploit is a chunk of data or piece of software designed to take advantage of a bug or glitch and cause unanticipated behavior to occur. Frequently includes gaining control of computer system.
Zombie computer is a computer attached to the internet that is controlled by a hacker. Zombies have been extensively used to send email spam.
The Melissa virus is a mass-mailing macro virus. First found on March 26, 1999, Melissa shut down Internet mail systems that got clogged with infected e-mails propagating from the worm. Melissa was not originally designed for harm, but it overflowed servers and caused unplanned problems.Melissa was first distributed in the Usenet discussion group alt.sex. The virus was inside a file called "List.DOC", which contained passwords that allow access into 80 pornographic websites. The worm's original form was sent via e-mail to many people.
electronic devices
Virtual surround sound has the same effect as having 4 or 5 speakers around the TV, but it uses fewer speakers and not as many cables. These systems come in two kinds 2.1 surround and digital sound projection. Most of the time, 2.1-surround systems use two speakers in front of the listener and a subwoofer placed somewhere else in the room. These sound like 5.1 surround system which has five speakers and a subwoofer. Digital sound projectors, on the other hand, use a single strip of small speakers to produce sound. Many digital sound projectors do not include a subwoofer. Both of these systems work in the same way. They use certain techniques to modify sound waves so that they seem to come from more speakers than are really there. These techniques came from the study of psychoacoustics, which means the manner in which people perceive sound.

Ashley Viveiros "HSW"
- Revealed to the public in May 1992 and was on the road by 1994.
- BMW Motorsports was contracted to design and build the engine.
- One good thing the McLaren F1 has is that the driver’s seat is personally fitted to each owner.
- Another good thing about the McLaren F1 is that it has two passenger seats mounted slightly behind on each side of the driver seat.
- One drawback to this car is that it is very small.
- I do not own a McLaren F1 because they are very expensive but i would love to own one because i like small cars and i also love going fast.
Melissa Laquerre, "HSW" digital cameras
Two good things of a digital camera are to take pictures of moments to remeber and also when it was first built it was used to provide onboard navigation information to astronauts during missions to planets.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_cameras#Early_development
One drawback is the difficulty to learn how to work the camera and get the perfect pictures.
I have a digital camera and I use it to take pictures for fun or specail occasions.
