Video:Homer Simpson Makes Men of the Decade list

homer simpson makes men of the decade list

from homer simpson to bob geldof, 10 famous males have been named the men of the decade.

tv chef jamie oliver, england manager sven goran eriksson and cyclist lance armstrong are included on the list, as are writer ian mcewan and blur singer damon albarn. the top 10 was compiled by a panel of experts for magazine men's health to celebrate its 10th anniversary.

each man represents a different area of expertise, including sport, music and design.

designer sir paul smith, ipod creator jonathan ive and geneticist craig venter complete the list.

"these are people of real substance and solid achievement rather than temporary fame," said men's health editor morgan rees. "the people on our list have used their talents to change the world around them, rather than just to draw attention to themselves. we were particularly pleased to see homer simpson on the list. he has taught a whole generation how to take on the challenge of modern fatherhood and win - although not always with honour."

the november issue of men's health is out now.

Video:Robot Cars In A Decade

robot cars in a decade

detroit - cars that drive themselves — even parking at their destination — could be ready for sale within a decade, general motors corp. executives say.

gm, parts suppliers, university engineers and other automakers all are working on vehicles that could revolutionize short- and long-distance travel. and tuesday at the consumer electronics show in las vegas gm chief executive rick wagoner will devote part of his speech to the driverless vehicles.

"this is not science fiction," larry burns, gm's vice president for research and development, said in a recent interview.

the most significant obstacles facing the vehicles could be human rather than technical: government regulation, liability laws, privacy concerns and people's passion for the automobile and the control it gives them.

much of the technology already exists for vehicles to take the wheel: radar-based cruise control, motion sensors, lane-change warning devices, electronic stability control and satellite-based digital mapping. and automated vehicles could dramatically improve life on the road, reducing crashes and congestion.

if people are interested.
