U of Arizona physicists have created a new transistor type. Called “QuIET” Its materials? One molecule.
What molecule? Benzene. Right now, we have 65 nm transistors. Theoretical limit of current technology is 25 nm, at which point it would eat electricty worse than a manhatten sized city. And vaporize while doing it too! More bang for your buck.
Nah, we dont really like vaporized laptops or pcs, so, why not use molecules themselves? Using a benzene ring, attach three leads from the ring. Two would have electric potential. Normally, the two currents would add, but we’re in the quantum physics domain, where electrons are waves. And waves can cancel! Thats the “off” state. Add a third lead, and you can change the phase of the waves. If their not exact opposites, they dont cancel, and you get current on the third lead. Voila! transistor. Very hard to accomplish, since this is quantum mechanics. predicting electron flow and phases is pretty difficult eh?
If they can figure out how to practically use this tech, Stafford states that we could have computer cpus the size of an e coli bacteria pack the current high end punch. yay! 😀
Get to it.

Really?….apparently, it also codes for location of organelles and objects within the cell, aka (nucleosome placements) Quite a discovery…this may provide larger control over genes and gene activation. Breaking the code that contains the locations of the organelles, scientists have reached 50% accuracy, quite high for such an achievement.
A comment on this article was:
Scientists, upon interpreting the second code in our DNA were astonished to find it spelled, “God, Inc. – Patent Pending”

Yup…thats right. 7.5 grand for TV service. But…this isnt any normal TV service. oh, and by the way, thats 7.5 grand per year. oopsies! 😛
Anyways…by signing up…you get
Every Channel
Every Movie
Every Pay Per View
Every Sporting Event
Every Adult Program
Every HDTV Channel
10 HD DVR receivers
and Conceirge Service 24/7
And…they dont leave ANYTHING out. Interesting eh?
Brought to you by DirectTV-Titanium. If anyones got the money and the time for this….get it here! and…tell me how it is will ya?
Sure, its just a normal 37 inch HDTV, sure they claim that its really thin….but, how many of these HDTVs you see are TWO CM Thick? and weigh 2.2 POUNDS?
Ok, sure, i dont know why the article switches between units etc, and im too lazy to go and convert. 😛
Anyways, iFire has created such a thing. Rejoice! It uses TDELs (thick film dialectric electroluminescent technology) phew, mouthful. Its less expensive and thinner than lcds or plasma. It uses a phosphor sheet as a backlight, and heres the holy grail. No…it is NOT selling at $2000000 a piece, its….*drum roll* $300!!! DEAR GOD. REJOICE AL YE TV CRAZED FANS! Check out the article here
HHO Gas?….very very odd…..the video is interesting…it looks legit…but…I dont know….HHO would be a very odd molecule. a structure like this: H-H<–O
a single bond and a coordinate bond…i dont think thats even possible. A possiblity was mentioned by one person, of Browns Gas, aka monatomic Hydrogen and oxygen mixed up in there, that provides the energy, but thats still very odd, if they can use that for efficient energy production. But hey, if it works….im not going to complain. Watch the movie here!

Thats kinda wierd. but…sure. So, some british person is the first in Britain…and im guessin the world…to conceive a baby that has been modified especially to avoid inherited cancer. Interesting…check out the article here!

Interesting…..i have verified this actually…..interesting……i scanned at 300 dpi, a 20 dollar bill, guess what error msg came up when i tried to open it.
i mean….WOW…….interesting…..apparently, this is to avoid counterfiting….this happens on credit cards, bills, and out of curiosity, i tried a passport. Even the new shiny electroplated rfid/slide ones are detected…..interesting…..lol, heres an article, and there is a way to work around this, so you counterfiters still have a way!**
So, heres the link!
**Disclaimer. That was sarcasm. I, in no way endorse or approve of money counterfiting.
