Sometimes you need to toss your most basic assumptions in order to solve a problem.

The heart is simply a pump that circulates blood through the body to deliver oxygen and remove carbon dioxide. But if you think about it, who says you need to deliver the blood in pulses rather than continuously. All previous attempts at an artificial heart tried to replicate the beating of a human/animal heart.

Doctors Bud Frazier and Billy Cohn realized that blood could be distributed more efficiently by a pair of turbines that would probably be more reliable over the long term. Sure, the recipient of a turbine heart has no pulse, but he is very much alive regardless.

Watching the new Top Gear right now and the boys have come up with another brilliant comparison test. They tested a trio of track day cars, the Caterham Seven R500, the KTM X-Bow and the Hamster brought a Morgan trike. They started off with a 0-100-0 mph test which Hammond insisted should begin with a tradition Le Mans start. I won't spoil the winner for you, but let's just say that the Morgan powered by an air-cooled V-twin never made it to 100 mph on the road course the boys were testing on.

"there's no place for the state in the bedrooms of the nation."

From a 1967 interview the late Pierre Elliot Trudeau gave to the Canadian Broadcasting Company in 1967 after introducing an omnibus bill in the Canadian parliament that among other things decriminilized homosexual acts between consenting adults.

Despite the passing of more than 45 years there are still those in the United States that proclaim the need to shrink government almost everywhere, except it seems the bedroom.

It's long past time for the American police state that has accelerated in the wake of 9/11 to be disbanded. You cannot protect freedom by burying it beneath the boot heels of the state.

Meanwhile, in Syria…

Errr, Egypt…

I mean, Libya – no wait, Iraq…

This is our America: a police state, where civil protest is treason, to be put down with brutality and superior firepower.

Wake up and smell the anger, Sweet Land of Liberty. And hurry.
