- Ionic's USA State Game (msi)
- Ionic's USA State Game is a simple game that plays 3 ways: placing the states on the map, matching capitals with states, and matching state names with locations. These are all key geography facts that elementary students need to learn. If your kids are like mine, they hated to study...

- Ionic's ISAPI Rewriting Filter (zip)
- Apache has mod_rewrite; now IIS has a small, cheap free rewriting module Ionic's ISAPI Rewriting Filter IIRF. Specify rewrite rules using regular expressions. An incoming URL like http://foo/bar/bam can be translated into http://foo/baz/bam.jsp or http://foo/baz/bam.php. ASP.NET has a URL mapping mechanism, but it works only for filetypes that are handled...

- Ionic's RpnCalc (msi)
- RpnCalc is a simple calculator application. This calculator application uses an interface similar to an old HP-15C, but on a convenient Windows application. Features include trig functions, log and exponentials, memory, and even loan amortization (like the HP-12C). This calculator uses Reverse Polish Notation. Version 1.2 includes unspecified updates.

- Toward more efficient fuel cells?
- A very short report from the American Association for the Advancement of Science AAAS, 'A cool fuel cell,' says that Spanish researchers have developed a new way to operate solid oxide fuel cells, which could potentially provide electricity on an industrial scale, at near room temperature. This new super-lattice material...

- Generating electricity with polymers?
- After yesterday, here is another story about using plastics as a power source. Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh are using ionic polymers immersed in a river to generate 'clean' electricity for the city of Vandergrift, Pennsylvania. If the project is successful, the city's downtown 'could one day get 20...

- New fingerprint detection technology
- Researchers at the University of Leicester, UK, working with Northamptonshire Police, have found a new technique for identifying fingerprints on metal. This method will enable forensic scientists to 'visualise fingerprints' even after the print itself has been removed. What is even more interesting is that this technology could 'enhance --...

- A light-powered toothbrush?
- Would you like to use a light-powered toothbrush which needs no toothpaste and no batteries? It's already available in Japan and North America and it costs about $30. Its rod contains titanium dioxide that generates a plaque-removing electrochemical reaction. This 'solar' toothbrush of the future 'works by releasing electrons that...

- Plastic to help water and gas industries
- Researchers have lots of imagination. After developing plastic as solid as steel, other scientists from in Australia, Korea and in the U.S. have created a plastic which could cut CO2 emissions and purify water. Their new material mimics pores found in plants and is exceptionally efficient. As said one of...

- Printing Batteries
- Researchers at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute have developed a battery that's basically a piece of paper impregnated with carbon nanotubes. Robert Linhardt, the senior researcher on the project says that the device isn't built from pieces, but rather it's a single integrated device. Almost 90% of the device is cellulose.The...

- Diamonds are fuel cells' best friends
- Researchers at UC Davis have used nanocrystals made of diamond-like cubic zirconia to develop cooler fuel cells. Even if hydrogen fuel cells have been touted as clean energy sources, current fuel cells have to run at high temperatures of up to 1,000 °C. This new technology will allow fuel cells...
