Japanese airline prepares to test biofuel blend made from flowers and algae

Japan Airlines will become the fourth airline in a year to use biofuel during a test flight tomorrow. The hour-long Boeing 747-300 flight will be powered by 50 per cent traditional jet fuel while the other half came from a biofuel blend.[......]

Hopefully this test fly will give some promising result. A lot of people remember well how painful it was when the global fuels price was sky high last year. Look at the bright side from that crisis, more funding and research works were carried out on finding alternative choice such like biofuel to replace the fossil oils. People have suffered enough when fuels price was sky high in last year.

You have a thought ~ why don’t I rename the photos, however, you have let’s say 300 photo files to rename. Either you rename them one by one or perhaps you can write several line command codes or scripts by using Java or C++. In fact, not everyone can do that.

Well, if you have that kind of experience, maybe you can consider to use this piece of freeware called ReNamer. It allows you to rename you files (a lot of files) with several setting by you. It is very simple to use and I bet you will like it.

We were seriously consider to have one of these laptops (Wind Pc, CloudBook, Eee PC) once. Unfortunately, these laptops are not yet available in Finland. What a shame. Frankly, having this type of laptop is a great idea for frequent traveller. He/she could use this laptop for his/her work, music, or music on the train/plane/bus/ship while travelling.

Have a look on Everex CloudBook vs Asus Eee Pc. Malaysian laptop producer, FTEC launched its own mini laptop recently.
