CNN) -- Most people have had dreams of flying. Graham Hawkes had dreams of flying -- underwater.

The Deep Flight Super Falcon made its maiden voyage in San Francisco Bay in September.
But in the past few years, the ultrarich have increasingly looked for cool playthings for their ocean adventures.
What better toy to have on the end of your 200-foot yacht than a submarine capable of diving to 1,500 feet below the sea's surface?
Whoops. Did we say submarine? It's a submersible that can "fly" underwater.
The Deep Flight Super Falcon looks like a fighter jet, with its thin body, two seats, two sets of wings and two tail fins.
"We just had to tear up everything we knew about submersibles and start again on winged subs -- underwater flying machines," Hawkes said.
He said Deep Flight submersibles are designed to be more agile than any creature living in the ocean -- with the exception of dolphins. The company says that because of the wings, the Super Falcon can go barrel-rolling with dolphins while traveling at speeds much faster than other private submarines.
The craft can stay underwater for up to five hours and travel at speeds up to 6 knots, the company says on its Web site.
The first client for the Super Falcon was venture capitalist Tom Perkins, who wanted a toy to keep on his mega-yacht, the Maltese Falcon. The base price: $1.3 million. Another model, which has open cockpits and cannot dive as deep as the Super Falcon, sells for $350,000.
Perkins, writing in Boating International magazine, said he joined the project to take the Super Falcon from prototype to a fully functional craft.
"Like some of my other projects, we didn't finish on time, but also like some of the others, the end result exceeded all our expectations," he said.
The second machine is being built for Hawkes' personal use.
A submarine driver wouldn't recognize the cockpit of the Super Falcon.
"There are no valves, there are no gauges," Hawkes said. "You just power up the thrusters, start your take-off run, put the joystick forward, then the nose goes down. The wings literally pull it down."
That's very different from conventional submarines, which basically dive by changing the ballast of the ship to make it sink.
"It's not just that they look like airplanes, they actually are," Hawkes said. "The machines we build underwater should look like airplanes, not submarines. Airplanes don't look like balloons."
He won't take credit for the idea, saying the idea of a submarine with fins and wings has been thought of before. The 1972 French comic book, "Tintin and the Lake of Sharks," included a shark-like submarine with dorsal fins and a tail. Hawkes said that although the idea of wings may have been obvious, "The prize goes to he that does."
On one of the submersible's first test voyages, Hawkes' team encountered a group of hammerhead sharks. The sharks were curious and swam around the watercraft. One engaged the sub in a game of chicken, only to veer off at the last minute. It was a great reward, Hawkes said.
The craft is powered by batteries and the turbines that drive the ship were made with special care to be incredibly quiet. The maneuverability also lets it navigate in strong currents that stifle other underwater craft, the creators said.
The business plan for Deep Flight includes schools for underwater pilots to fly future versions of the Super Falcon. The next school is scheduled for this summer in the Turks and Caicos, said Karen Hawkes, the company's manager of marketing and communications, in an e-mail.
The three-day course costs $17,000. There is also a half-day, ride-along dive that costs $5,500. Karen Hawkes said the company enrolls 10 to 15 people per course and had open spots for this summer's courses.
She also wrote that while "there really isn't something akin to the FAA governing submersible operations," her company thinks sub manufacturers should offer pilot training to the owners of machine.
Then the owner can load his or her new toy onto their yacht and discover the underwater portion of this planet that most people never see, Hawkes said.
"Shall we go and find some territories that humans have never seen before? ... Get in one of these machines, get below 150 feet -- the deepest that divers go -- and you are the first human eyes to look at that piece of the planet."

Evlilikler her zaman güllük gülistanlık yürümüyor. Her çift mutlu olmak, hayatının geri kalan kısmını birisiyle paylaşmak için evleniyor fakat her zaman aradığını bulamıyor. Bazı durumlarda evlilik çok yıpratıcı ve yorucu olabiliyor. Bu durumda boşanmaktan başka çare kalmıyor.
Boşanma da çok kolay bir süreç değil. En başta hayal kırıklıklarıyla dolu bir süreç. Üstüne üstlük yeni bir hayat kurmak ve bu hayata alışmak zorundasınız. Alışkanlıklarınız, arkadaşlarınız bile değişir. Yapılan araştırmalar gösteriyor ki, kadınlar bu yeni hayata erkeklerden daha kolay uyum gösteriyor. Kanadalı araştırmacılar 20 ila 64 yaş arasındaki boşanmış erkeklerin, yine aynı yaşlardaki evli erkeklere göre altı kat daha depresif olduğunu gösteriyor.
Kadınların aynı durumla baş etmedeki başarısı erkeklerin iki katı, aynı araştırmada kadınların sadece üç kat fazla depresif olduğu gözleniyor. Üstelik erkeklere göre daha kısa sürede yeni bir hayat kurabiliyorlar.
Kadınlar kısa süre içinde kendilerini toparlayıp, yeni hayatlarını alışıyor ve yeni bir düzen kuruyorlar. Erkeklerse alışmakta çok zorlanıyorlar. Maddi sıkıntılar çekiyorlar ve para harcama alışkanlıklarını kaybediyorlar. Birçok erkek kendini gezmeye ve alışverişe veriyor ve bu durumdan bir başka kadınla tanışana kadar kurtulamıyorlar.
Araştırmalar ayrıca boşanmış kadınların, hiç evlenmemiş kadınlara göre, hayata daha dayanıklı olduğunu da gösteriyor. Daha önce hiç evlenmemiş kadınlar bir hayat kurmak için evlenmeyi beklerken, boşanmış kadınlar kendilerine ait bir hayatları olması için bir erkeğe ihtiyaçları olmadığını düşünüyor.

CNN -- Matthew Baron is one of those gizmo guys, the kind who covets all toys new and shiny.
The slumping economy has more consumers holding on to older gadgets while holding off on shiny new purchases.
But the Brooklyn, New York, attorney, like so many other American consumers who are watching their bank account balances, is reassessing his gadget habit.
"If I'm going to buy something, I want it to count. I want it to last," said Baron, who incidentally goes by "OMG! Ponies!" when he posts comments on Gizmodo, a popular tech and gadget blog.
So, even though he'd like to upgrade his 4½ -year-old HDTV, this cowboy's holding back the reins. And while the latest iPhone was a "must have" for Baron, he said he's "waiting to pull the trigger" on that camera he's been circling. "I just can't go out and spend $400 right now."
Ignoring what you want. Recycling the old. Fixing what can be saved. Is this the new American way when it comes to tech toys and electronics -- an industry in which new gadgets can become outdated within months?
Many consumers are hoping to make products last longer, which is keeping businesses that repair and refurbish computers and other gadgets and electronics as busy as ever.
"The percent of our business devoted to repair is definitely increasing," said Paula Baldwin, the mistress of propaganda (yes, that is her title) for Geek Squad, a consumer-electronics services company. People are seeking help "to either repair that gear or add to its functionality and what it [the product] does for them."
Scott Steinberg, publisher of DigitalTrends.com, said that function, in fact, "is the new fad."
People may need their cell phones and computers to work so they can simply get by, but they don't necessarily need the highest resolution screens, the sleekest designs and all the technological bells and whistles.
"Shiny is great, but shiny doesn't necessarily let you send that e-mail or send that text message," Steinberg said. "At the end of the day, as long as the gadget functions properly, does it have to be wrapped in white gold?"
But to hear it from Shawn DuBravac, an economist for the Consumer Electronics Association, which represents 2,200 technology companies, we're staying more true to our old selves than you might think.
"During other recessions, we could live without these technologies," he said. "Whether you're male or female, 18 or 81, chances are you'll buy a technology product this year."
People are more inclined to scrimp elsewhere -- tape a bumper to a car, for example -- than they are to go without a new cell phone, he suggested. In fact, the proportion of dollars spent on electronics versus other "durable goods," such as cars, has never been higher, he said, referencing Department of Commerce statistics.
To illustrate how strong the market remains, DuBravac pointed to the popularity of new televisions in 2008, saying that sales for LCD TVs were up 41 percent and digital TV sales, overall, were up 24 percent over the previous year.
"What he's telling you is right, but it's only half the story," said Wilson Rothman, feature editor at Gizmodo, the site "OMG! Ponies!" frequents.
While people are buying, they're paying much less, Rothman said. The Seattle, Washington, journalist believes the TV industry "kind of burned itself out" with its rock-bottom prices at the end of 2008.
"What ended up happening is after most people who wanted a TV bought a TV, the market vanished," leading to layoffs, slashed budgets and to Pioneer -- which he said currently has "the best TV on the market" -- getting out of the business.
"But the good news is everyone has an HDTV now," he added with a laugh.
Just as companies "bend over backwards to get people to buy," Rothman said the next best things are being held up in production because people can't pay for them. The OLED screens for phones and cameras, for example, aren't rolling in the way folks expected.
"Kodak sent me an OLED photo frame," Rothman said. "A thousand dollars! I sent it right back and said, 'I'm not going to review it. If I did, I'd only spend 800 words making fun of you.' "
Not only do people want to pay less, they also want more free.
Gizmodo is seeing increased traffic for its Dealzmodo link, where visitors can find discounted games, computers, movies and more. Same for its Hobomodo link, which offers freebies -- including everything from software to teeth-whitening products and tacos.
Nice-looking teeth and food handouts may not make up for out-of-reach tech gadgets, but Rothman, who said his site's audience is made up of "college kids and nerds of all ages," is learning that such things also can't hurt.
"The only agenda we have is we love gadgets," he said, "But we're also sympathetic to consumers."
