Kansas City Waterslide

Kansas City's new insane waterslide called Verrückt  is said to be the biggest waterslide in the world. Verrückt is taller than the Niagara Falls or the Statue of Liberty.  May 23rd, when Verrückt, the world's largest and tallest water slide located at the city's Schlitterbahn Water Park, opens up for business. Jeff Henry, who came up with idea of building Verrückt , is also know as the wizard of water, Jeff is  responsible for many of the Water Park's other unusual attractions like the inland water surfing, uphill water coasters and endless tube rides.  I would like to ride on this waterslide because it is known to be the biggest waterslide in the world and I think it would be cool to say that I rode on it.

                                     2. The car hurtled down the highway.
                                     3. A smile illuminated her face.

                                     6. She came up with a radical idea.

Micro Windmill Charger



The Micro Windmill Charger may soon charge our phones. Scientist Jung-Chih Chiao the electrical engineering professor at the University of Texas at Arlington, came up with the idea of a Micro windmill that can charge your phone. Measuring 1.8 millimeters at their widest point, they are so small that ten of them could be fitted on a single grain of rice. This Micro Windmill was sought to capture energy of large gusts of wind  to power his sensors or night lights, without installing a giant wind turbine.
