Minnesota State Fair @ Night

I was at the MN State Fair at night and I ate french fries. I heard Daft Punk somewhere like I do every year here. Daft Punk is a European trance act. I took a picture of all the lights.

anti-US Chinese have Carrier killer missile

Communist Party in China funded a new super missile that can sink a Nimitz aircraft carrier within 900 miles of the coast. The new missile is called the Dong Feng (or East Wind) 21D. They attack our government computers all the time. It's a cyber cold war.

DF-21 is a two-stage, solid-fuel, medium-range ballistic missile (MRBM) developed by the 2nd Aerospace Academy (now China Changfeng Mechanics and Electronics Technology Academy) in late 1970s. It was the first solid-fueled ballistic missile deployed by the Second Artillery Corp. The missile carries a single 500 kt nuclear warhead, up to 2,500 km range. The DF-21 also served as the basis for the submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) JL-1 (CSS-N-3), used on the XIA-Class SSBN. In 1996, an improved variant, the DF-21A, was introduced. Currently, an estimated 60-80 DF-21/DF-21A are in service.

The only thing that can protect a carrier is a HELLADS (High Energy Liquid Laser Defense System) pod on the flight deck. Maybe have some HELLADS on the West Coast. Maybe have a LGM-118 Peacekeeper re-commissioned, because it is 15 years newer than the LGM-30 Minuteman III in service until there is plenty of HELLADS manufactured.

Gnome 2.32 in OpenSuse 12.1

I've been using Gnome 2.32 in Linux Mint 11 and OpenSUSE 11.4 and it is absolutely necessary that it stays in this openSUSE 12.1 and 12.2. Gnome 2.32 is stable and Gnome 3 crashes so I don't want that option. KDE 4.7 would be a much more stable desktop than Gnome 3. A lot of people including me don't like going backwards.

openSUSE 11.1 had both KDE 3.5.10 and KDE 4.1.3, remember? The SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12 better not have only Gnome 3.1 in it. What a disaster in the making! Fedora 15 Gnome experience was supposed to be awfully unstable.

Dragon Ball Z

Due to popular demand on IMDB, I found this on Ebay and bought it. I watch it when it was airing. I watched Mighty Morphin Power Rangers between 1993 - 1997 and had an option of buying MMPR, yet I didn't. Mighty Morphin Power Rangers didn't have a very good score at IMDB (5.3). Dragon Ball Z was, to many, one of the most influential cartoon series ever in the world. When I was younger I grew up watching the whole series from start to finish, read the comic books, and played the video games. The Dragon Ball Z series contain some of the most charismatic characters, great fighting sequences, and strong plots that covered thousands of years. Originally created in the 1980's, it's truly a blessing that western audiences finally gets to see it in english. However I wish the series would start from the very beginning, the story when Son Gokou was a courageous little boy who uses his innate fighting talents to help out others. It's only a shame though that the western TV version are heavily censored, causing disorientation and lack of flow to some of the original fight scenes. The Japanese version showed no-holds barred violence and the use of strong words (aka swearing), creating emotional tension that is not present in the english-language version.

Antimatter catalyzed nuclear pulse propulsion possible with further research

Now man-kind can understand how to get to Mars quicker with Antimatter catalyzed nuclear pulse propulsion. Antimatter made & trapped in lab for the first time. at CERN's Geneva labs have recently managed to trap a sizeable amount of antihydrogenhave managed to trap a sizeable amount of antihydrogen.



With conventional technologies nuclear explosives can scale down to about 1/100 kiloton (10 tons, 42 GJ; W54), but making them smaller seems difficult. Large nuclear explosive charges require a heavy structure for the spacecraft, and a very large (and heavy) pusher-plate assembly. Small nuclear explosives are believed to stop shrinking in overall size and required fissile nuclear materials at around 25 kilograms weight, so smaller pulse units are much more expensive per delivered unit energy, and much less mass efficient than larger ones. By injecting a small amount of antimatter into a subcritical mass of fuel (typically plutonium or uranium) fission of the fuel can be forced. An anti-proton has a negative electric charge just like an electron, and can be captured in a similar way by a positively charged atomic nucleus. The initial configuration, however, is not stable and radiates energy as gamma rays. As a consequence, the anti-proton moves closer and closer to the nucleus until they eventually touch, at which point the anti-proton and a proton are both annihilated. This reaction releases a tremendous amount of energy, of which some is released as gamma rays and some is transferred as kinetic energy to the nucleus, causing it to explode. The resulting shower of neutrons can cause the surrounding fuel to undergo rapid fission or even nuclear fusion.

Discovery made of unnamed "Mass of any particles" boson

The discovery of a huger "Higgs Boson" is a CERN coverup now. If there was an encyclopedia on-board the crashed Roswell spacecraft of 1947, the Higgs Boson would be in it! All humans needed to find was a 'Rosetta Stone' to translate alien to English. So the Large Hadron Collider was built in 2009.

Abstract Motivated by the result of the Higgs boson candidates at LEP with a mass of about 115~GeV/c2, the observation given in ATLAS note ATL-COM-PHYS-2010-935 (November 18, 2010) and the publication “Production of isolated Higgs particle at the Large Hadron Collider Physics” (Letters B 683 2010 354-357), we studied the γγ invariant mass distribution over the range of 80 to 150 GeV/c2. With 37.5~pb−1 data from 2010 and 26.0~pb−1 from 2011, we observe a γγ resonance around 115~GeV/c2 with a significance of 4σ. The event rate for this resonance is about thirty times larger than the expectation from Higgs to γγ in the standard model. This channel H→γγ is of great importance because the presence of new heavy particles can enhance strongly both the Higgs production cross section and the decay branching ratio. This large enhancement over the standard model rate implies that the present result is the first definitive observation of physics beyond the standard model. Exciting new physics, including new particles, may be expected to be found in the very near future.

Fermi-lab found a bump in the diphoton mass spectrum at a mass of ~115 GeV. If the Higgs exists, it is expected to produce a bump in that spectrum, and 115 GeV is a very probable value for the mass of the Higgs. Higgs peak in this spectrum could be larger than expected if there exist new, heavy particles that we haven’t discovered yet?. The latest published result from CDF sets a limit of about 30 times the expected rate at 115 GeV in the diphoton channel.

So they found something like a Higgs Boson! Lets all just call it the Higgs Boson and cerebrate with Gatorade!

Mitt Romney frontrunner without Straw Polls is a good thing

It is always nice when my chosen Republican is still the front runner. He wasn't even there instead campaigning at the state fair. He couldn't have won them if he wasn't in them. Bachmann won the Ohio straw poll. Ron Paul Wins Presidential Straw Poll at CPAC for the 2nd year. The other candidates are either too inexperienced (Bachman), too libertarian (paul, Cain), too flamboyant and bouncing off the walls (Newt Gingrich).

The democrats are just playing the class struggle Bolshevik/Frankfurt school card, Democratic National Committee: "As we expect to see tonight, the GOP candidates' extreme aims to appease the far-right wing of the Republican Party shows that Republicans are more concerned with protecting their special interest friends and the wealthy than protecting working families" "Expect the overwhelming majority of the Republicans on the stage tomorrow night to proudly state that they would not have supported the bipartisan debt agreement that prevented our country from defaulting on its debt for the first time in history"

My Popular Blog Resurrected

In 2002 and 2005 I was a talented webpage designer. That was about the time, I tried integrating a window into my blogspot. My pages are on the wayback machine.

I liked to read videogame reviews when I was a hardcore gamer and some ancient Linux review I wrote. There was an about page, a gallery, a guest book, automated email. It was really ahead of its time. Nobody in my high school class made a personal webpage using HTML code with Dreamweaver. At least the viewer can see my creative webpages.

If I were to create a new webpage, would it just be more of the same. My geocities page was huge at 14 MB on FTP. I recieved no feedback! I try to get feedback on facebook without luck. I used Namo Webedtior 5.5 so often, updates became easy. At the time, I couldn't ask enough people to sign my guestbook. My webpage looks advanced compared to other geocities sites.

Here is my old modblog blog (my first blog)

There were people on my chatbox in 2003. I had 58,030 visitors on this blog. This is 20 times as many stats as most bloggers. My videogame list had 352 linkings, most on the entire modblog. This blog was a lot more successful than my myspace at the time. Very few myspace comments.

new Super Committee sounds like...

Obama's super committee to control the debt sounds a lot like GosPlan (command economy) from the USSR. The council's decisions took the form of decrees and decisions to the Czars(The Pres's council of ministers).

Both the Republican Party and Democratic Party have central committees. The Union commissariats directed their designated branches of administration throughout the USSR directly or through subordinate agencies; the Union-republican commissariats directed their corresponding branches, based on registers of enterprises or institutions, through republican commissariats of the same name; and the republican commissariats were responsible only to the councils of people's commissars in their own republics.

One of the duties of Gosplan was creation of Five-Year Plans.

Quantum Zeno effect apocalyse

For years, scientists have been scouring the cosmos for some kind of bizarre hypothetical anti-gravity bullshit they're calling "dark energy". And they've had some success with it ... perhaps at the expense of our mortal souls.

To grossly simplify it, on a scale smaller than atoms, the quantum level, everything suddenly turns into a goddamn circus. Quantum physics is to regular everyday physics as a David Lynch film is to a mainstream blockbuster. We're talking particles popping in and out of existence, being in two places at the same time, and generally acting like assholes.


No doubt the strangest part is the Quantum Zeno effect, which points out that simply observing and measuring particles changes them (specifically, changing the rate at which they decay). How? No one knows. It appears to be the closest science has ever come to proving black magic exists.

What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

One prominent scientist theorized that the changes caused by simply observing dark energy could cause it to collapse, taking the universe with it.

Scientists, eager to see if this is true, are furiously observing dark energy whenever they get the chance.

So, Basically It's Like...

It's like crossing the streams in Ghostbusters, apparently.

How Long Have We Got?

That scientist, Professor Lawrence Krauss, thinks it may already be underway. Apparently, in the late 90s, scientists were looking at a bunch of shit exploding in space when they caught their first glimpse of some dark energy. This may have put the universe into a state where it may or may not pop like a soap bubble at any given instant. Just because we looked at it. Holy balls.

Risk Level: 3

This ... this can't be right, can it? Surely the guy's just nuts. Then again, he appears to be one of the most prominent physicists in the country and has published a huge list of papers and books on the subject.

Then again, one of them was The Physics of Star Trek and, now that we think about it, we're pretty sure he stole this whole scenario from an episode of The Next Generation.

Alzheimer cure semi-found thru Cloning

Cloning animals is legal in the United States, yet the South Koreans try to save the elderly having Alzheimers are Parkisons. They've cloned Tegon who can glow in the dark. The new mutations in Tegon can be swapped with any substituted with genes that trigger fatal human diseases. It's been done with somatic cell nuclear transfer technology :P

There are 268 illnesses that humans and dogs have in common.

Minneopa

I wasn't able to stay home and watch DirecTV or Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood, play Catharine on PS3, and create another facebook event. I had to travel stupid 85 miles to Mankato, Minnesota to see Minnaopa waterfall in 90 degrees Fahrenheit. No one showed up at my Facebook event to get acquaintances I've made to photograph with me (everyone else gets it with this double standard). I assure you that moderate enough to talk what they desire. I am sure my Facebook friends with 400 comrades are talented enough to be chosen so I am jealous of their getting invitations on days like these. I am sure this Brock who say "What the fuck you talking about?" is easily more talented with 750 comrades. So I called him a bitch! Too many of my Facebook friends are real bitches.
