Celebrity Real Estate Artist Frank McKinney Unveils His $29 Million 'Green Mansion'

Frank McKinney's highly anticipated $29 million green mansion in an illusionary and spectacular theatrical assault on the senses. The estate is the first home of its size to be certified green by the rigorous environmental standards of the U.S. Green Building Council and the Florida Green Building Council.

Manalapan, Fla. (PRWEB) January 22, 2009 -- Risk-taking real estate daredevil and bestselling author Frank McKinney makes his fortune doing things like no one else. This February, on Friday the 13th, he unveils "Acqua Liana," his highly anticipated $29 million green mansion in an illusionary and spectacular theatrical assault on the senses.

During this artistic display, in just one evening, McKinney has promised to single-handedly revive the American Dream. But how will he do it?

With the grand unveiling of his daring new masterpiece, McKinney once again illustrates his incomparable talent for predicting and creating demand for the next hot trend in real estate. South Florida coastal architecture is long overdue for the bold statement made by Acqua Liana's dazzling, tropical and environmentally responsible design.

Acqua Liana, named after the Tahitian and Fijian words for water flower, is set on 1.6 acres and 23 feet above sea level, with over 150 breathtaking feet fronting direct Atlantic Ocean-to-Intracoastal Waterway property in Manalapan, Fla. The estate is the first home of its size to be certified green by the rigorous environmental standards of the U.S. Green Building Council and the Florida Green Building Council.

Inspired by trips to Bali, Fiji, Tahiti and Hawaii, the three-story, 15,000-square-foot, 7-bedroom, 11-bath mansion features thatched roofs, meandering water gardens, floating sun terraces, a waterfall spa with a fire feature in the water, an interior glass "water floor," a suspended double-helix main glass staircase, an arched aquarium wet bar (walk below with exotic fish above!) and a guesthouse constructed out of palm and bamboo that is partially submerged in a lagoon.

Green features of the home include:

---    enough solar panels to cover a regulation-size basketball court and could generate enough energy for two average-size homes;

---    a water system that collects enough runoff water to fill the average swimming pool every 14 days;

---    environmentally conscious lighting that reduces fixture consumption by 70%;

---    enough reclaimed wood to save 10.5 acres of Brazilian rain forest;

---    renewable woods that regenerate every three years vs. every 50 years for other hardwoods;

---    pools, reflecting ponds, water gardens, misters, etc., to drop the site temperature 2 to 3 degrees lower than neighboring properties;

---    recycling 340,000 pounds of debris during construction; and

---    air conditioning and air purification systems four times better than a hospital's operating room.

Among the home's many spectacular features are a 2,180-square-foot oceanfront master bedroom suite with his/hers ocean-view baths, magnificent oceanfront Hawaiian Koa-wood kitchen and catering kitchen, fitness studio, oceanfront glass office, two glass elevators, two laundry rooms, glass wine cellar, subterranean air-conditioned and marbled oversize garage with window views of the pool above and much more.

In distinctive McKinney style, which defies the ordinary, he also releases three new books: Burst This! Frank McKinney's Bubble-Proof Real Estate Strategies; The Tap; and Dead Fred, Flying Lunchboxes, and the Good Luck Circle, all published by Health Communications, Inc. "I wrote all three over the last eighteen months from my oceanfront treehouse office, three hours a day, every day," McKinney notes of his literary triple play. "It meant constantly shifting between the challenging arena of bubble-proof real estate investing to a rich fantasy world to deep within my personal faith and spirituality." Proceeds from the sale of the books are donated to his Caring House Project Foundation, which creates a self-sustaining existence for poor and homeless families around the world.

Asked to "accentuate the dichotomy" in their attire, some of the 500 invited guests at the unveiling of Acqua Liana will appear to have walked out of a Friday the 13th horror film and others are expected to assume the guise of famous sweethearts for Valentine's Day. Gathered on the beach and sipping specially concocted "Friday the 13th Manalapan Mojitos," with McKinney's island-inspired Acqua Liana masterpiece shrouded behind a giant curtain, they will anxiously await their host's arrival and the dramatic unveiling of the world's most opulent green home.

With vibrant pyrotechnics and spotlights searing the night sky, McKinney will amaze the assembled VIPs with a stunning entry, complete with an illusion worthy of the world's great magicians -- and even more impactful than his grand entrances to previous events, where he appeared as a pirate descending into the crowd from a high-speed zip line, jumped his motorcycle over a replica of his first home or raced up the shore on a jet ski while clad in black.

The opening spectacle of the night notwithstanding, "It's when you cross the threshold into Acqua Liana that the show really begins," says McKinney. His theatrical "symphony of the senses" for this event was created to demonstrate that the American Dream is very much alive. "At this Grand Unveiling, guests will hear nothing about a credit crisis or other gloom and doom," he says. "With Acqua Liana in the spotlight, they will be surrounded by beacons of realistic optimism and opportunity: other visionaries and market makers who pay no attention to the bubbleheads and who make their fortunes doing so."

Anticipation for the first look at McKinney's latest masterpiece has accelerated for months, as guests watched the countdown ticker at Frank-McKinney.com and then received an extraordinary invitation: a red, heart-shaped box decorated with a black ribbon -- Friday the 13th courting Valentine's Day -- with custom candies inside saying Burst This!, Buy Me, Green, Acqua Liana and twenty-six other words related to the big event. Only two of the coveted invitations contained a gold coin with the word Sold on it, entitling the guest to a private lunch in McKinney's famous treehouse office, copies of all three books, a ride in his 1988 Yugo mini-book-tour-mobile and a private tour of Acqua Liana.

What are the black trucks in a Presidential Motorcade?

Have you ever wondered what all those extra SUVs are in the Presidential or VIP motorcades? You know, the ones with severely tinted windows. The SUV's that no one gets in or out. Maybe they are Unmarked 'black helicopters' on four wheels...

Well, wonder no more. They have a 6 barreled 7.62 mm mini gun. They Fire over 4,000 rounds per minute The wipers need to be run to remove Spent casings when the weapon is firing.

This video is from the company that makes this happen. The vehicle is also armor plated.

The Stabbing Cane - Perfect For Gregory House

I thought this product was amusing.   It's a cane that has a button on top that extends a stabber meant to chip ice... but of course it could be used for other things...

I think Gregory House from House (TV show for those of you living in a cave) would be cool with this.  If you click on the "show store" button you will see a cool video on using canes in martial arts.

Additionally here is some VERY cool technology from www.toldya.com I used to make this "Fat Ad".  Check it out.

Industrial 6-Rotor Unmanned Helicopter Provides High Definition Wireless Video and High Resolution Photographs

Draganfly Innovations releases the Draganflyer X6 helicopter. This remotely operated, unmanned, miniature helicopter is designed to carry wireless video cameras and still cameras.

The ease with which this helicopter can be piloted is the most revolutionary feature of the Draganflyer X6

Saskatoon, Saskatchewan August 27, 2008 -- Today, Draganfly Innovations announced the launch of the Draganflyer X6 helicopter, a miniature aircraft for commercial/industrial aerial video and photography. The Draganflyer X6 helicopter is easy to fly, capable of operating autonomously, and has an appearance that is nothing like a conventional helicopter. The unique design utilizes six main horizontal rotor blades and allows the Draganflyer X6 helicopter to hover efficiently and maneuver rapidly using differential thrust.

Draganflyer X6 Helicopter

Remotely controlled aircraft are available for many purposes, and most fall into a class somewhere between toys and the high quality models piloted by hobbyists. Beyond this class is a large gap approaching the point where full size aircraft must be used to achieve tasks such as commercial photography and industrial inspection. In the past this gap was filled by model aircraft with additional equipment grafted on, which required skilled and trained pilots to operate. Draganfly Innovations has created a better alternative; a purpose built self-stabilizing multiple rotor helicopter specifically designed for filming high definition video and photographing high-resolution aerial pictures.

The Draganflyer X6 is a fully functional miniature unmanned electric powered helicopter. Aimed at industrial and commercial use, it provides reconnaissance and inspection information using on-board wireless video and still cameras. The Draganflyer X6 helicopter is able to fly autonomously or can be flown manually by remote control. The Draganflyer X6 helicopter achieves its stability by using an on-board processor running more than ten thousand lines of code and receiving data from eleven on-board sensors (three gyros, three accelerometers, three magnetometers, one barometric pressure sensor, and one GPS receiver). It can be piloted by users with minimal or zero training. The Draganflyer X6 helicopter determines its own orientation and motion and moves where the operator instructs it, automatically handling the complex attitude and altitude adjustments that would ordinarily require a practiced pilot. "The ease with which this helicopter can be piloted is the most revolutionary feature of the Draganflyer X6" says company president, Zenon Dragan.

The Draganflyer X6 helicopter can be put into GPS hold mode where it will maintain its position without any user input. This means that after activating GPS hold, the pilot can set the handheld controller on the ground while the Draganflyer X6 helicopter flies itself. This mode will allow the user to focus on other tasks such as aerial photography from the Draganflyer X6 helicopter.

The Draganflyer X6 helicopter uses interchangeable cameras, covering different areas of use. A high definition video camera provides 1080p resolution. For dawn and dusk use, there is a low light (0.0001lux) video camera. For night use or search and rescue, the thermal FLIR (Forward Looking Infra-Red) camera provides heat vision. High-resolution photographs can be captured with the 10.1 mega-pixel digital still camera. When using any of the camera modules, a viewfinder video signal is streamed wirelessly back to the operator for real-time viewing on video glasses. The camera mount tilts by remote control, and the helicopter can pan side to side or in a circle.

The Draganflyer X6 helicopter uses six custom designed high efficiency carbon fiber rotors and direct drive brushless motors which result in a quiet and maintenance free helicopter. The Draganflyer X6 helicopter weighs 1kg and has a payload capacity of 500 grams.

Durability and safety have been incorporated into the design of the Draganflyer X6 helicopter. With dual motors on each of the three arms, even if an in-flight collision causes one of the motors or rotors to stop working, the Draganflyer X6 helicopter will still be able to keep flying using the remaining five motors. This ability to fly with a missing motor or rotor is not found in any other comparable helicopter. Other safety features include bright LED navigation lights for safe flying at a distance or in darkness, and automatic self-landing if the radio link controlling the helicopter is lost. An on-board flight recorder (black box) stores telemetry and flight data in a removable memory card, and can be used for post flight analysis.

The Draganflyer X6 helicopter is flown using a custom designed handheld controller with a 2.8" color OLED touchscreen that displays telemetry and flight data. The handheld controller also receives streaming video sent by the Draganflyer X6 helicopter and passes this to the video goggles, enabling the operator to view what the helicopter is seeing while also keeping an eye on the helicopter itself.
