Hasta La Gadget!

Remember the “eye in the sky” idea, where satellites are powerful enough to keep track of every single person on earth, with street cameras helping it keep track of our movement, coming in and going out? Well, it seems that such an idea is about to be realized soon, where such a surveillance system has already been flying above America’s cities, being able to look out for crime round the clock – sounds like something Bruce Wayne/Batman would love to have.

61 year old Bran Ferren has spent millions to custom make the KiraVan, aptly named considering this is a gift for his daughter who is named Kira, and Kira will be able to enjoy her travels on her very own pop tent that is located on top of the truck. The father and daughter pair intend to travel across America and eventually, the world in KiraVan.

The KiraVan has been called the ultimate recreational vehicle, where it will come with an office, a kitchen, bedrooms as well as its very own motorbike and drone, now how about that? It seems to be more like something out of a James Bond movie than anything else. The KiraVan was a labor of love that has taken a long time to come into existence, where this humongous six-wheeled vehicle is more than capable of driving down mud-swamped roads, and even rock covered roads, courtesy of Kevlar reinforced tyres.

It has enough supplies within to travel up to 2,000 miles without having to stop by and resupply, and it boasts of a special suspension system that can navigate slopes as steep as 45 degrees. Apart from that, the cockpit comes with a special vibration reducing chair, in addition to the ability to use drones that fly ahead in order to check out the traffic condition. The KiraVan measures 31 feet in length and is over 10 feet high, it is a whole lot better equipped compared to some homes out there.

Earlier today, we brought you word that a 14-year old Dutch girl who sent a mock threat over Twitter that she intends to bomb an American Airline plane, was subsequently arrested since such threats were not meant to be taken lightly. It makes perfect sense actually, but after doing so, it seemed that the situation has deteriorated from a security point of view – apparently more bomb threats from Twitter users started to appear, targeting American Airlines, of course.

A number of tweets that were posted were in the same vein as that which got the 14-year-old Dutch girl arrested. I guess the authorities figured out that an arrest would let the world know that they will not tolerate such poor attempts at humor, and hoped that this would be a deterrent. The opposite seemed to have happened though, and apart from American Airlines, the unrelated airline Southwest too, happened to be one of those who were affected. I guess no matter how advanced the Internet is, there is no filter for immaturity of its users.

What do you think should have been the correct decision that American Airlines ought to have taken? Now, if there was a genuine threat, it would be even more difficult for safety officers to see through the “noise” generated by these fake threats. Hopefully no one would take this opportunity to pull something that will launch the world into the next phase of war against terror.
