Interesting Nail Art

There is an interesting art “gallery” of someone using nails as props and taking pictures of them.

Funny, or not, look at the subprime mortgage mess

If you haven’t seen these they are pretty funny. Of course if you don’t like the f-bomb I wouldn’t suggest watching them.

People laugh when I say that the biotechnological advance in the next 25 years are going to be just as massive as the computer revolution has been in the past 25. Here is yet more example over at physorg.com. “Nanoparticles Generate Supersonic Shock Waves to Target Cancer”

The power of these nano explosives could lead to a breakthrough in drug delivery for cancer and HIV, the researchers explain. First, drugs would be administered with a needle as usual, dispersing through the entire body. But then a hand-held device aimed at the tumor would send a pulse into the tumor. The shock waves created by the pulse would make tiny holes in the cells it was aimed at, allowing the drug to enter the tumor cells. Further, the force of the shock waves would push the drugs to those cells within milliseconds.

Expect to see results in humans in 2-5 years. They have a 99% success rate in animal tissue already.

When will it end?

The Votes are in!

Well not really, but it’s getting close. There are a lot of sites that ask you to take a quiz to tell you who to vote for, but I liked this one the best. It lets you select the issues that are most important to you and then asks you questions. It also has an exhaustive list of where each candidate stands on almost issue along with links or videos to back them up. Turns out my top choice is Bill Richardson, who I liked the most anyway.
