Travel insurance is popular

Call it hedging a bet, playing it safe or now just part of the deal, more people are buying travel insurance than ever before, and they have some good reasons. Earthquakes, floods, ash clouds, civil and political unrest along with snowstorms, fear of pirates and scary things that go bump in the night all seem to play into making what was commonly a "no" decision a "yes, absolutely" when it comes to buying travel insurance. Buying travel insurance is popular but coverage varies and knowing the details of your policy is important.

"2010 certainly raised people's awareness of the value of travel insurance," Dean Sivley, chief executive of the travel insurance company Travel Guard told the New York Times.

Nano-brick packaging allows foods to last longer

A new coating that reportedly allows foods to last longer has a structure much like this b...

We’ve already heard about new types of packaging that use things such as sorbic acid and silver nanoparticles to keep food fresh for longer, but this week scientists from Texas A&M University announced the development of a “nano-brick” film that utilizes yet another substance to achieve the same purpose. That substance is montmorillonite clay, which is one of the ingredients used to make bricks. The film is about 70 percent clay (with the rest of it made from various polymer materials) and when its structure is viewed through an electron microscope, it actually even looks like bricks and mortar...

The Audi duo Sport in Espresso Brown

While a number of car makers, including BMW, Mercedes-Benz and McLaren, have sought to leverage their brand and technical knowledge to produce vehicles of the two-wheeled, pedal-powered variety, they tend to opt for the same high-tech, lightweight materials used in their cars, such as carbon fiber and aluminum. Audi has done the same thing in the past, but for its latest bicycle offering Audi of America has taken a different tack by teaming up with Renovo Bicycles to create the "duo" – a line of bikes that feature monocoque frames made of hardwood...

Open Question: What's a good vegetable stir-fry recipe for camping?

I'm going to be leaving for a class camping trip in about a week, and it's my job in my food group to bring food and cook dinner on one of the nights. Since one of the girls in our group can't eat meat, we've decided on a vegetable stir-fry. What would be the best recipe for this? And adding on to that question, how exactly would you cook rice while camping? Since my state is under a burn ban, I have to use a Coleman stove for this.
