Domino's surprise
Mike Vegas ordered a pizza from Domino's but got much more than he
bargained for when he opened the box to find a massive wad of cash. The
delivery driver had been on his way to the bank and put the cash in an
empty box for safe keeping and then mislaid the box which ended up in
Mike's house.
After finding the stack of cash amounting to £860 ($2101.84 NZ), Mike
posted the weird find on Facebook. Many people responded, some telling
him to keep it and others told him to return the money to Domino's. Mike
himself had worked as a delivery driver when he was 16. Although he
wanted to keep the money he said he just couldn't do that. He returned
it to the Domino's ranch and in return was offered a free pizza for a
whole year! Doing the right thing certainly paid off!
Scientists introduce invisible cloak
Invisible cloaks may be common in the world of Harry Potter but
scientists believe the 'magical' device may soon be a reality for us
non-wizards pretty soon too! Scientists have revealed that they have
successfully tested an ultra-thin invisible cloak made of microscopic
rectangular gold blocks. The material can be wrapped around an object
and the surface reroutes light waves to make it invisible to the eye.
The 'metamaterials' has properties not present in nature and the
surface has features much smaller than the size of a wavelength of
light. They redirect incoming light waves and shift them away from the
object that is being cloaked. So far the cloak has been only
experimented on small objects but scientists believe that the technology
could be used to conceal much larger objects. It is believed that the
cloak could be used in military operations to hide vehicles, aircraft
and even soldiers.
