A Slingbox can redirect up to four live Audio/Video signals from a cable box, satellite receiver, PVR, or other Audio/Video source to the viewer’s PC located anywhere nearby, such as in home or office, or, when using a broadband Internet connection, anywhere in the world.

I will be able to use my existing setup (Computer connected to my 52″ TV).
I will purchase a ‘Sling Box’ and connect it to my Mom’s Cable Box(or anyone I trust not to tamper with the box) and Voila, I get the same Cable stations at my house that is 2 hours away.
The Slingbox utilizes Sling Media’s proprietary SlingPlayer to display audio and video on Microsoft Windows, Apple Macintosh running Mac OS X, and select mobile devices. SlingPlayer is not available for Linux, BSD or other open source systems. However the Windows version of SlingPlayer will run on open source systems via Wine. The latest SlingPlayer version for Windows is version 1.5 (technically 1.5.0.325). This version adds or improves support for specific audio/video devices.

This smoky super insulator was developed by NASA for catching comet dust. In awe of it’s semi-transparent, eery look, it is a very pricey material at $160 for a less than 2x2x2 square. If you were to put a piece between your hand and a blow torch, you would not be able to feel the heat from the blow torch at all. If this material were mass produced you could insulate your entire house and only have to run AC or heat for only minutes a day.
Ive ran across this stuff on the beach from time to time, moreso on the NC coast a few inches from the water on the beach. However take a look at this from the Australian coast … Scientists say that due to impurities such as dead plants, too much salt, decomposing fish, etc. in the water massive foam was generated. This picture is taken in Sydney, Australia.
