The
electric car boom might come to hauling stop. Lithium batteries and supply
might become a shortage. From Tesla’s new facility in Nevada producing enough
batteries able to power 500,000 electric cars a year by 2020 it shows that the reliance
on these batteries to become a demand that may slow down how many will be
supplied. It is no joke that since 2013 the impressive rate of demand in over
three years has accumulated a sea of change. Lithium powers pretty much
everything: smart houses, smart cities, internet of things. The future of
lithium power is eventually everything we have and these ideas won’t be
possible if we can’t prevent a lithium battery shortage.

2017 GTR to be hybrid
Next GT-R is going to be a hybrid supposedly! It’s been
thought about for years now, even though it’s not 100% sure. More fuel efficient
is what Nissan wants to go for with the 2017 GT-R. This not only boosts efficiency but the overall
performance of the vehicle as well. Electrification is going to be the goal for
any car, which will be no new surprise for anyone. Not being anything new, many
manufacturers like McLaren have done the same thing with their P1. The P1 uses
torquey electric motor that will help make up for its lag from the forcefully
turbocharged V8. Plus, it’s also worth it for Nissan to equip the GT-R with
hybrid technology to compete with its rival Acura and their NSX embracing the
hybrid technology. Nakamura-san not only considers anything changed on the
vehicle to be bad. He thinks whatever proportions are changed not only
contribute to better performance but also to better aerodynamics.

Iphone 7 plus Dual-lens?
Is it possible that Apple
wants to be the top player in the market, once and for all? It looks like it
might be just that. Apple is working with Taiwanese manufacturer Primax. They
will be building the dual-lens camera that will be available on the newest release
this fall, the iPhone 7 plus. Expected to be used in their 13-megapixel
models. The optical will improve image fidelity and allow the consumer to shoot
3D videos. It is also projected to have optical image stabilization. Even
though LG was the expected manufacturer of the dual-lens for Apple, that won’t
happen because LG’s setbacks from Sony. On the downside, Primax will equip only
70 percent of the phones with this dual-lens. Consumers should expect it to
ship out next month, so for all your Apple iPhone lovers, get ready for what’s
to come. Let’s hope to expect other innovations as well that will continue to
push competitors in the tech world to push other manufacturers in this
competitive market.

Honda S660 Concept
Honda had developed the concept of the s660 back in 2013,
thought as the new s2000, but not of what was expected. In 2015 they began
developing the concept and sure enough it would stay true to what was
envisioned. Release date in 2017, the car’s design however will be offered in
the United States and Europe with aggressive looking body kits, but also may
have the option of wider wheel wells for bigger tires and rims. It would
feature a 3 cylinder turbo 1 liter engine that would have a whopping 63 horsepower
and 77 foot pounds of torque.

Big Problem: America!!!!!
The United
States education system is problematic. Compared to most of the world, our
education lacks the need to generate students into members of society. Students
accumulate debt in their adult years that puts them at a disadvantage when
entering the field of work. Our country’s focus is complicated and about profit
rather than creating a population of innovators. Lobbyists pose the biggest
threat. Corporations run this country. They can make the government sway in the
direction feeding their money hungry interests. 1 percent of this country owns
the remaining 99 percent. Our national debt can almost be wiped out if these 1
percenters paid higher taxes. We no longer have an upper, middle, and lower
class system. Our society has become one that is the upper and remaining lower
class system. The issues will diminish if we break the systematic chain that
the upper class (1 percent) has created.
Politics is
the root of evil in the United States of America. War is a part of all the
agendas of our country’s political system. Every war spreads democracy, brings
resources, and spreads our western beliefs. War also brings death, chaos, and
poverty to countries that we pillage. We lack accountability for these
tremendous acts of greed. Our country now feels wrath amongst its own people
and we have our US government to thank for that. We can only bring change
through deconstruction of our government. We must start all over from scratch
and build together a system that embodies every voice to be heard, and for a
government that represents the people and not the interests of one group of
individuals.

Pokemon Go Addiction!
Kristin Scott, a new found addict, describes how playing Pokémon
Go has become a serious habit in her life. Since dropping in early July of
2016, not only have we seen an increase of players, but we also seen how people
get too attached to catching them all.
Kristin’s addiction has gotten to the point that when people come into
her workplace searching for Pokémon she knows exactly where to find them. She
probably will never be able to let go of her phone or stop playing the game.
Others like her are probably facing the same dilemma and let’s just hope they
can let go of the non-existent Pokémon, and rejoin society in the real world.

Fuck Hilary and Donald: We Want Michelle
The
next president, Michelle Obama, is the ideal candidate. Hilary Clinton and
Donald Trump are full of crap. Hillary is disqualified for several reasons: her
secret email account and how she had it erased, the outcome of the Benghazi
attacks, and her crummy political agenda that only benefits her. Trump is just
a complete moron who has a staff that tells him what to say. For goodness sake,
he reads everything off a card to tell Americans what they want to hear but will
she never gets done. He is an idiotic person, who offends multiple ethnic
groups. It is shocking that he made it this far in the election.
Michelle
Obama is the person who should be elected president. She would change the education
system. She would promote healthy eating cross-country from schools to
households. Her policies for national healthcare would be extended from the
previous president (Barrack Obama). Michelle truly would change more than
Hilary and Donald could as president. The agenda is clear with Michelle Obama.
What boggles my mind is why we haven’t considered such a perfect candidate.
Instead, we chose between an evil sniveling hag (Hilary Clinton) and a fat
toupee wearing pig from Wall Street (Donald Trump).
