Public WiFi networks are far from secure. Even browsing from your own home could benefit from a security upgrade. Oppressive regimes attempt to prevent their citizens from accessing social networks & other Internet content. And then there is region-locked content. All of these problems can be ameliorate by use of a virtual private network (VPN).
Keezel is VPN in a box.
Compared to other VPN solutions, keezel has the following advantages:
● no software to load onto any of your devices
● single button operation
● contains a large capacity battery (“almost three times the capacity of your iPhone 6” i.e. almost 3 * 1810 = 5430 mAh1,2) which can be used as an external battery to charge you phone, tablet or similar device
Keezel is available for as little as $US79 on IndieGoGo:

Very surprising answer, but demonstrates a few things:
1. conservatism of the medical profession
2. conservatism which is understandable in a profession charged with responsibility for so many human lives
3. conservatism which is understandable in a profession with such high malpractice insurance expenses (Saw a story somewhere about a medico who entered medical practice in the first half of the 20th century. Initially, he was paying $70 per year for malpractice insurance. By the time he retired, this had climbed to $70,000 per year!)
4. if you have a new medical idea, be prepared for a long, hard slog to get it accepted — witness the discoverers of glycemic index & the value of insulin for treating diabetes
5. everything is obvious once you know the answer

Ice mountains — 11,000 feet (3350 metres) tall in the image above — rising above plains of frozen methane & nitrogen in the most detailed images so far, from NASA’s New Horizons.
No impact craters in any of the photographs so far seen. This indicates a surface which has recently been formed — & a geologically active planet.
New Horizons is now more than a million miles past Pluto & moving towards the Kuiper Belt.

During the closing stages of its record-breaking trans-pacific flight into Hawaii, the battery pack of Solar Impulse 2 was damaged by overheating. After repairs & testing the round-the-world flight is expected to resume in April 2016.

New Horizons completed its fly-by of Pluto at 7:49 AM US EDT on Tuesday, 14 July 2015. It passed Pluto at 30,800 miles per hour (49,600 kilometers per hour — 14 kilometres per second). After capturing all its data, New horizons began transmitting it back to Earth. Shown above is the best image to-date. More to come. Over the three billion mile distance to Pluto, the data rate is very low. 16 months will be required to transmit all of the data captured during the fly-by.

BMW has already shown an interest in electric vehicles with its i3 electric & i8 hybrid, with more planned.
Recently, they have deployed a 40 ton articulated electric truck, supplied by Dutch manufacturer Terberg, for parts deliveries from automotive service provider Scherm. Initially, it will be used on a trial basis between the BMW Group Plant & Scherm Group Logistics Centre, a distance of 2 kilometres, 8 trips per day.
