...A more believable theory about Cobain's death suggests he was the victim of a CIA mind control experiment. An individual claiming to represent 'a private network of researchers' contacted me about this and arranged a meeting in the Temple Church on Fleet Street. Once I'd settled in a pew, a very nervous young man seated himself beside me. According to my contact, the CIA is deeply concerned about the subversive influence of popular music on young people, that's why 'they murdered Brian Jones, John Lennon and Jim Morrison'.
What's been worrying the spooks lately is the sway black radicalism has gained over the minds of white teenagers, to counter this 'they've been pushing Nation of Islam style separatism among rappers'. Likewise, the white Grunge movement spearheaded by Nirvana was backed by the CIA because 'they wanted to divide youngsters on racial lines, if black and white kids linked up, they'd pose a serious threat to the system. The whole point of Grunge is to instill in teenagers a sense of hopelessness, to fill them with self-hate and prevent them from changing the world.'
Apparently, the CIA got hold of Cobain when he was still unknown, then using drugs, hypnosis and medical torture, they broke his will and rebuilt his personality. 'Most of the time he'd act relatively normal,' I was told, 'but all it took was a few key words spoken over the phone and Cobain would carry out the deeds he'd been programmed to enact.' My contact was convinced that the singer had been brainwashed into committing suicide at the peak of his success because the CIA figured this would reduce his potentially rebellious fans to complete despair.
However, the conspiracy theorist admitted several of his fellow researchers thought Cobain had taken his own life as the only means of breaking free from the influence of his controllers. If this is the case, then the rock star is a hero rather than simply a victim, and his death provides grounds for a fresh outbreak of teenager rebellion.

Printed Electronics on What Packaging Exactly?

POSTED BY: Dexter Johnson / Tue, May 18, 2010
While the prospect of having animated cartoons on a child’s cereal box may be appealing in science fiction movies,
such as in the video below from the 2002 film “Minority Report”, it may not make quite as much sense in the bean
counting world of business.
“Smart packaging” as it has come to be known would interact with the user, perhaps providing nutritional information or
some cartoon like in the film clip above. But when one considers you might be using it on a box of cereal that you would
sell for a few dollars and then would get thrown out with the trash it hardly seems worth the expense.
I suggested almost six years ago in a report I authored for Pira Intl. "The Future of Nanotechnology in Printing and Packaging"
that you might see this kind of packaging made available for high-ticket items like luxury goods, but it would be hard to see
the economics of using this technology on disposal products.
But this kind of technology so excites our imagination that companies continue to pursue its realization. One of these companies
is Dublin-based Ntera who is making the news again, such as here and here with their Nanochromics technology.
Ntera was launched back in 1997 as a spin-out from the University College of Dublin. Typical of most technology-driven start-ups
they pursued a number of possible application areas before settling down on electronic displays.
Once they did they pursued "nanochromics". The term nanochromics is one of those nano-centric turns of phrase that plays off the
term electrochromics technology that we are all familiar with on the rear view mirrors of our automobiles. The nanochromics
technology uses nanostructured films to comprise the electrochemical cell and limitations in switching speed have been overcome
by molecular design.
Dr. David Corr, President and CEO of Ntera, is correct in his assessment; we are seeing a new era in the technology of printed
electronics with the ability to now print “multi-layered components such as batteries, diodes, transistors, memory, solar cells
and displays.”
But one can’t help but wonder whether we are seeing an example of a technology in search of an application. Where is the market
pull for these types of printed electronics for packaging? I am not suggesting they don’t exist, but sorting out where that
market pull is coming from seems at least as important as refining the technology.

Even the cartoon display might on box of corn flakes might be a real business case, if only the costs are low enough.
And that should come with increased volume. Just think of going to your local supermarket with kids for shopping,
which box of corn flakes would your kids pick? I already can hear (in my imagination) the whine for the flashy one!

Thanks for all your comments. I suppose the aim of the post was to open the discussion as to the idea that refining
our approaches to applications seems just as important as refining the technology. It's not easy. Consumers can be
confounding. Speaking of the 70s, can anyone really explain the "Pet Rock" phenomenon? Just so there is no confusion,
I believe that plastic electronics are going to have a big impact. But the question remains where will that impact be
in general, and specifically in the area of packaging?

The business case is coming (in some cases already has) where it provides real savings, not in the world of easily
imagined hype. Electronic shelf labels (replacing the paper tags which have to be frequently replaced and thrown
away) are a large and rapidly growing business.
Your complaint really relates to specific example of a much more general phenomenon, which is that we can easily
imagine far more things than we can (or should) do, and the power of our IT infrastructure affords people the
proverbial soapbox to express these ruminations. Very few of them will actually come to pass, and in the meantime
a lot of noise is created which makes it difficult to extract the valuable signal. But that is free speech, about
which we can't complain!

What business case?
Most likely these smart packages would be used for direct marketing efforts annoying the heck out of guys like me.
I would seek out "generic" products without all the hoopla.
Come to think of it that's what I do now. Most of this stuff is of no added value to the consumer.
I.E. mothers would want their kids to eat their breakfast and get off to school rather than being glued
to some inane cartoon at the breakfast table.

Sounds like you've got the idea backwards when you say "it hardly seems worth the expense...".
Your statement is like someone in 1970 saying "it hardly seems worth the expense of putting a record player in a greeting card,
just to have it play 'Happy Birthday' a couple times before being thrown away".
What happens when creating a display on a cereal box gets cheaper than printing fixed color graphics by conventional methods?

Graphene for Electrodes in Organic Solar Cells Could Reduce Costs
POSTED BY: Dexter Johnson / Fri, January 14, 2011
While organic solar cells have been promising an inexpensive way to exploit solar power in comparison to their silicon-based cousins,
things have not panned out in the marketplace quite as expected with flexible solar cells being rolled out onto roofs like asphalt
roofing material.But researchers at MIT believe they have overcome at least one obstacle with organic solar cells by finding a material
for the electrodes that will match organic cells’ flexibility and replace the expensive indium-tin-oxide (ITO).
The magic material is none other than graphene, the wonder material of the latter half of the first decade of the 21st century.
Of course, this is not the first time that graphene has been discussed in relation to organic solar cells, but actually getting the
graphene to go where you want it to go remained an obstacle.
In a paper published in the Dec. 17 edition of the Institute of Physics journal Nanotechnology, MIT professors Jing Kong and Vladimir
Bulovic demonstrated how they were able to overcome the material’s resistance to adhering to the panel. The solution turned out to
be a doping process that introduced impurities into the graphene that made it bond with the panel.
After having overcome this manufacturing obstacle, the graphene performed much like ITO except that it was more flexible and also
transparent to allow all available sunlight to pass through. But perhaps most importantly, carbon is far more abundant than the
increasingly rare ITO, which would likely reduce the cost of the product.

Personal solar panel provides light for developing countries

Emerald. Credit: Univ. of Michigan.
As a child in Mali, Abdrahamane Traoré often did his homework by the sooty, dim light of a kerosene lamp.
As an adult in Michigan, he sometimes has a tough time reaching his family back home. Traoré's mother must walk to a
neighboring village to keep a cell phone charged.
Electricity isn't always a plug away in much of the developing world. That's why Traoré and Univ. of Michigan engineering
student Md. Shanhoor Amin teamed up to develop the Emerald, a personal solar panel the size of a paperback.
The young engineers are the founders of June Energy, an award-winning start-up spending its second semester in the TechArb student business incubator. The company recently received more than $500,000 in venture capital, and it's about to ship its first 40 domestic orders. Amin and Traoré, along with chief technical officer Allan Taylor, are planning a trip to Kenya and Mali later this semester to test their prototype with the people it was primarily designed for.
Amin, who will graduate in April with a master's in energy systems engineering, says the Emerald is unique.
"There are products now that offer either discrete lighting or basic electricity, but not both. And these products are
expensive due to high internal component costs," Amin said. "We've developed circuitry that solves both of these
problems affordably."
The company's goal is to get the price under $20 for its customers in the developing world.
For lighting, the Emerald uses energy-efficient light-emitting diodes, or LEDs. It gives reading light for at least 8 hours.
"Kerosene lamps provide 60 lumens of light, which is really not much," Amin said. "It strains the eyes. Our product can give
up to 100 lumens, which is really ample for reading at night time."
Other reasons the developers say the Emerald is better than kerosene: The fuel can get expensive, and it isn't healthy to
breathe in the lamps' smoke. Kerosene is the primary cause of respiratory illness in regions where it is commonly used, Amin said.
"I knew the lamp was harmful to my lungs, but I didn't have access to anything better," Traoré said.

Vision
Graphic: Christine Daniloff
The human retina has about 100 million light-sensitive cells. So retinal images contain a huge amount of data. High-level visual-processing tasks—like object recognition, gauging size, and distance, or calculating the trajectory of a moving object—couldn’t possibly preserve all that data: The brain just doesn’t have enough neurons. So vision scientists have long assumed that the brain must somehow summarize the content of retinal images, reducing their informational load before passing them on to higher-order processes.
At the Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers’ Human Vision and Electronic Imaging conference, Ruth Rosenholtz, a principal research scientist in the Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, presented a new mathematical model of how the brain does that summarizing. The model accurately predicts the visual system’s failure on certain types of image-processing tasks, a good indication that it captures some aspect of human cognition.
Most models of human object recognition assume that the first thing the brain does with a retinal image is identify edges and sort them according to alignment: horizontal, vertical, and diagonal. Then, the story goes, the brain starts assembling these features into primitive shapes, registering, for instance, that in some part of the visual field, a horizontal feature appears above a vertical feature, or two diagonals cross each other. From these primitive shapes, it builds up more complex shapes—four L’s with different orientations, for instance, would make a square—and so on, until it’s constructed shapes that it can identify as features of known objects.
While this might be a good model of what happens at the center of the visual field, Rosenholtz argues, it’s probably less applicable to the periphery, where human object discrimination is notoriously weak. In a series of papers in the last few years, Rosenholtz has proposed that cognitive scientists instead think of the brain as collecting statistics on the features in different patches of the visual field.
Patchy impressions
On Rosenholtz’s model, the patches described by the statistics get larger the farther they are from the center. This corresponds with a loss of information, in the same sense that, say, the average income for a city is less informative than the average income for every household in the city. At the center of the visual field, the patches might be so small that the statistics amount to the same thing as descriptions of individual features: A 100% concentration of horizontal features could indicate a single horizontal feature. So Rosenholtz’s model would converge with the standard model.
But at the edges of the visual field, the models come apart. A large patch whose statistics are, say, 50% horizontal features and 50% vertical could contain an array of a dozen plus signs, or an assortment of vertical and horizontal lines, or a grid of boxes.
In fact, Rosenholtz’s model includes statistics on much more than just orientation of features: There are also measures of things like feature size, brightness and color, and averages of other features—about 1,000 numbers in all. But in computer simulations, storing even 1,000 statistics for every patch of the visual field requires only one-90th as many virtual neurons as storing visual features themselves, suggesting that statistical summary could be the type of space-saving technique the brain would want to exploit.
Rosenholtz’s model grew out of her investigation of a phenomenon called visual crowding. If you were to concentrate your gaze on a point at the center of a mostly blank sheet of paper, you might be able to identify a solitary A at the left edge of the page. But you would fail to identify an identical A at the right edge, the same distance from the center, if instead of standing on its own it were in the center of the word “BOARD.”
Rosenholtz’s approach explains this disparity: The statistics of the lone A are specific enough to A’s that the brain can infer the letter’s shape; but the statistics of the corresponding patch on the other side of the visual field also factor in the features of the B, O, R and D, resulting in aggregate values that don’t identify any of the letters clearly.
Road test
Rosenholtz’s group has also conducted a series of experiments with human subjects designed to test the validity of the model. Subjects might, for instance, be asked to search for a target object—like the letter O—amid a sea of “distractors”—say, a jumble of other letters. A patch of the visual field that contains 11 Q’s and one O would have very similar statistics to one that contains a dozen Q’s. But it would have much different statistics than a patch that contained a dozen plus signs. In experiments, the degree of difference between the statistics of different patches is an extremely good predictor of how quickly subjects can find a target object: It’s much easier to find an O among plus signs than it is to find it amid Q’s.
Rosenholtz, who has a joint appointment to the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, is also interested in the implications of her work for data visualization, an active research area in its own right. For instance, designing subway maps with an eye to maximizing the differences between the summary statistics of different regions could make them easier for rushing commuters to take in at a glance.
In vision science, “there’s long been this notion that somehow what the periphery is for is texture,” says Denis Pelli, a professor of psychology and neural science at New York Univ. Rosenholtz’s work, he says, “is turning it into real calculations rather than just a side comment.” Pelli points out that the brain probably doesn’t track exactly the 1,000-odd statistics that Rosenholtz has used, and indeed, Rosenholtz says that she simply adopted a group of statistics commonly used to describe visual data in computer vision research. But Pelli also adds that visual experiments like the ones that Rosenholtz is performing are the right way to narrow down the list to “the ones that really matter.”

Graphene for Electrodes in Organic Solar Cells Could Reduce Costs
POSTED BY: Dexter Johnson / Fri, January 14, 2011
While organic solar cells have been promising an inexpensive way to exploit solar power in comparison to their silicon-based cousins,
things have not panned out in the marketplace quite as expected with flexible solar cells being rolled out onto roofs like asphalt
roofing material.
But researchers at MIT believe they have overcome at least one obstacle with organic solar cells by finding a material for the electrodes
that will match organic cells’ flexibility and replace the expensive indium-tin-oxide (ITO).
The magic material is none other than graphene, the wonder material of the latter half of the first decade of the 21st century.
Of course, this is not the first time that graphene has been discussed in relation to organic solar cells, but actually getting the graphene
to go where you want it to go remained an obstacle.
In a paper published in the Dec. 17 edition of the Institute of Physics journal Nanotechnology, MIT professors Jing Kong and Vladimir Bulovic
demonstrated how they were able to overcome the material’s resistance to adhering to the panel. The solution turned out to be a doping
process that introduced impurities into the graphene that made it bond with the panel.
After having overcome this manufacturing obstacle, the graphene performed much like ITO except that it was more flexible and also
transparent to allow all available sunlight to pass through. But perhaps most importantly, carbon is far more abundant than the
increasingly rare ITO, which would likely reduce the cost of the product.

@Backlight22 Think what you like, that doesn't make it so. The range of evidence shown in this video
is evidence enough in the collective sense, unless you believe in statistically highly improbable coincidences
occurring one after the other.

This makes me so sad. I have been studying NASA photos for four years; and the people there are
obvious and evident. They do not spoil their landscape with commercialism as we do. They do have roads,
military bases, crater-garden cities, richer and poorer communities. The FACT Science hasn't caught
up with Life on Mars is just so much more dogma-baiting. It's pathetic.

The maya callender can only have 3 plausable truths 1) they died out and there calander is what it is, a relic.2)
it ended 2012 and would begin another cycle- they were smart but nowere near as smart as us we can hardly predict the weather
for the coming week with all our current? technolagy yet the maya were able to predict coming events 1500 years ahead of
there time?or 3, they were given that date buy those they worshiped, those who came from above same as the sumarians aztecs
and egyptians

We are? not alone no question, but alot of the craft we are seeing nowadays are of earth origin reverse engineered from
alian technology. I believe that if in the next couple of years if the public worldwide is not made aware of this truth then
there is truly an insidous agenda gouing on witch i personaly believe is the case. Abductions genetic hybrydisations witch
ill bet alot of these fake alien corpse pics are. The truth is there in fragments i believe we must tread carefully too see the it.

@ghodium I see where your coming from but I cant imagine what they have described in this program to be another civilisations
maiden voyage, I think they would of travelled to a more nearby star system to make sure their systems worked but I suppose
accidents could happen. I personally think that by the time humans can travel to? other life friendly plants that technology will
be so advanced compared to today that we could barely imagine what it is like and would probably be flawless.

think about it like this with all the galaxies in the universe it would be foolish to think that other beings exist and if
they are advanced enough to travel from galaxy to galaxy or even planet to planet it would make even more sense to accept the fact
that they can keep themselves hidden from us until something goes wrong and they crash.Everything made by intelectual beings with
at some point fail. The Gov't keeps it under wraps so they can in their minds a chaos free society.

@8joeb i understand perfectly thank you... look at it this way, imagine us, human beings, reaching that stage some day, and
sending out our first mission to another star system, of course we'll test it in every way that we? are able before setting off,
but we still cannot exhaustively test how everything will perform in the far away star system in light years time (or after taking
a short cut through a worm-hole whatever)... "obviously a major malfunction"

@ghodium I don't? think you understand how advanced a civilisation would have to be travel to other star systems and the time
it would take. I think they would of mastered landing and taking off before they even set off...
