The First Carbon Nanotube Computer
A carbon nanotube computer processor is comparable to a chip from the early 1970s, and may be the first step beyond silicon electronics.
By Katherine Bourzac on September 25, 2013 .
For the first time, researchers have built a computer whose central processor is based entirely on carbon nanotubes, a form of carbon with remarkable material and electronic properties. The computer is slow and simple, but its creators, a group of Stanford University engineers, say it shows that carbon nanotube electronics are a viable potential replacement for silicon when it reaches its limits in ever-smaller electronic circuits.
The carbon nanotube processor is comparable in capabilities to the Intel 4004, that company’s first microprocessor, which was released in 1971, says Subhasish Mitra, an electrical engineer at Stanford and one of the project’s co-leaders….”
Nuclear Fusion Has Broken Even For the First Time Ever
from: http://gizmodo.com/nuclear-fusion-has-broken-even-for-the-first-time-ever-1442376955 …Nuclear fusion, the same process that powers the sun, could provide us with limitless cheap energy—but experiments to date have always used more power than they created. Now, though, researchers have apparently tipped that balance, making fusion a real possibility ….Usually, they have to dump more power in using the lasers than they manage to […]

Origination Clause, Article 1, Section 7 of the US Constitution
(My only disagreement with the following writer is over the fact that he was so late in coming to the table. -hh … excerpted from: http://www.jerrypournelle.com/chaosmanor/?p=15585) Origination Clause Jerry, I’d been mildly against the current House Republican confrontation over delaying Obamacare, on the grounds that it’s a worthwhile goal but I wasn’t at all sure it […]
Exp God – Oct 3, Weak with Those Who Are Weak
[29] Who is weak without my feeling that weakness? Who is led astray, and I do not burn with anger? (2Co 11:29 NLTse) …When a brother or sister suffers, we are affected. Our calling is not to be solitary Christians but to be members of a priesthood (1Pe 2:9)… …When he learned that false teachers had […]
Exp God – Oct 2, While He Prayed
[21] One day when the crowds were being baptized, Jesus himself was baptized. As he was praying, the heavens opened, [22] and the Holy Spirit, in bodily form, descended on him like a dove. And a voice from heaven said, “You are my dearly loved Son, and you bring me great joy.” *[ Some manuscripts read my […]
Thomas Sowell…irrelevant standards
Thomas Sowell once wrote: “Many have argued that capitalism does not offer a satisfactory moral message. But that is like saying that calculus does not contain carbohydrates, amino acids, or other essential nutrients. Everything fails by irrelevant standards.”
Exp God – Sept 30, …fall into the hands of the living God.
At times, God chooses to judge someone’s sin severely, as a deterrent for others… …His judgment on one may ultimately save that person and many others. When God is judging others, take heed and examine your own life. God knows what is at stake; He loves His children enough to provide a stark warning of […]
Exp God – Sept 27, Casting Your Cares
[7] Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you. (1Pe 5:7 NLTse) … Casting our cares is a choice. It means consciously handing over our anxiety to Christ and allowing Him to carry the weight of our problems. At times this is the most difficult part of trusting God! We don’t […]
Exp God – Sept 26, No Sin
[6] Anyone who continues to live in him will not sin. But anyone who keeps on sinning does not know him or understand who he is.(1Jn 3:6 NLTse) …The Bible makes two things clear about sin…: First, living a lifestyle of sin indicates that you are not walking in the power of the Holy Spirit, regardless […]
