An African grey parrot named Pepper cannot fly, since his wings are clipped. But he can drive a little buggy designed by his owner, Andrew Gray, an electrical and computer engineering graduate student at the university of Florida. So that pretty much makes Pepper the Mario Andretti of birds.

The Chief of police in Utah is hoping these camera glasses will make the police in Utah nicer to citizens. Much like dasboard cameras that currently log in what's happening in front of a police officers car during a shift, these tiny glasses with a mounted camera on the side will show you everything that the police officer sees and does while on patrol.With AXON ( thre name of the company) every interaction is going to be recorded, not just the ones filmed in front of the cruiser.

California Gas Prices Finally Dip Under $4 

           Analysts had said on Friday that the price would likely breach the $4 mark over the weekend, and it did, reaching $3.99 a gallon on Sunday. The states average hadn't been under $4 since Aug. 10th, when it was $3.98 a gallon. Motorists still might find that price high but the current average is 13.6 cents a gallon above the old price for Nov.5 which was set last year. I feel all the people that still think this price is high should be grateful due to the fact of how little consumable gas there is for the American people on the east coast. and how that it is urgent for everyone to get gas for there vehicles or generators if needed.

Texas Highway reaches 85 MPH

    After years of work the Texas State Highway 130 toll road has been opened weeks ahead of schedule.

This new toll road has gotten national attention over several of months for having a posted speed limit of 85 mph along its 41 mile long highway just south of Austin.This road was made with no cost to taxpayers. Passenger trucks and cars will be charged $0.15 per mile which comes up a little over six dollars. Personally this would be cool watching cars going 85 mph but i have no idea how this relates to technology even though i know i'm on technology.
