Don't think of it like a camera which records reflected light, or as an x-ray machine that records xray "light" shined through an object and recording the "shadows" on film. There is no need to project or reflect this radiation as the objects emit the radiation.
The reason isn't news because of the discovery of this spectrum of radiation, but because of the ability to focus and record it. As I understand it, it is much more difficult for machinery to detect than radio or light wave frequencies and required some sort of nano manufacturing based upon the species of moth that has antenae that can sense radiation in this spectrum.
Unlikely to be effective for deep tissue therapy it seems.
Like light, it is possible to focus the radiation and create images as if the intervening material were translucent. From what I gather, you could focus such a device similarly to how you focus a regular camera. Putting things at different tissue depths into focus. And since your body emits this radiation from all depths, only the stuff that is in focus would be seen.
oh. and you do know light is radiation, right? a flashlight exposes you to radiation:-P
From the article: According to de Maagt, the main advantage of a terahertz imager is that it does not emit any radiation and it is a passive camera, capturing pictures of the natural terahertz rays emitted by almost all objects.
When this becomes more developed this could lead to less of a need for Doctors to use exploritative surgery to see what is going on in the deep tissues. To find things such as torn tissues or tumors.
And from what I understand from the article, TeraHertz radiation is something that objects emmit naturally. So I'd assume devices using this technique would not be exposing you to radiation, as X-rays do.
Security checkpoints might adopt this also. Airports currently use x-rays which can be damaging to high speed film and has other negative issues also. The article mentioned that certain chemical characteristics could also be gleaned from an imaging system such as this, since the object itself (and the chemicals it contains) is the thing emmitting the radiation. Possibilities include detecting explosives and drugs.
Also, just as a side note, the pictures of a human body through clothing referred to in the article are of some fat guy with flabby tits. View at your own risk.
Herbert got through six of the seven. His son has the notes for the seventh, and is preparing to butcher his father's legacy as he's done six times already with those godawful prequel books.
I second that opinion. Here is Frank Herbert's words about the writing of Dune.
It was to be a story exploring the myth of the Messiah. It was to produce another view of a human-occupied planet as an energy machine. It was to penetrate the interlocked workings of politics and economics. It was to be an examination of absolute prediction and its pitfalls. It was to have an awareness drug in it and tell what could happen through dependence on such a substance. Potable water was to be an analog for oil and for water itself, a substance whose supply dimishes each day. It was to be an ecological novel, then, with many overtones, as well as a story about people and their human concerns with human values, and I had to monitor each of these levels at every stage in the book.
Frank Herbert had researched for six years before he even began putting the Dune story together. Much effort and creativity went into it, and the results reflect it. His son, Brian Herbert and another Kevin Anderson are busy milking the Dune legacy as we speak. They have already released 3 prequels, which takes place a generation before Dune. As a standalone series, they are mediocre at best. As an addition to his father's works, they are a travisty. The first of another 3 has been published, taking thousands of years earlier, during the Bulterian Jihad which is often, but vaguely referred to throughout the Dune series. It was terrible. It was painful to read. I could only manage to read a chapter a day (which is at most, about 5 pages) after which I'd put it down in disgust and be in a foul mood for a good 2 hours. Brian and Kevin have plans, after they poop out book 2 and 3 of the Bulterian Jihad, is to write two more triligies for a total of 12 prequel books. All will be released according do when it's most profitable. After then, will he set his sights on the big mother load itself, Dune 7. The book that Frank Herbert made outlines for, but died before he could write it.
That being said, SciFi's Dune mini-series is the last hope for many Dune addicts out there. Granted, hardcore readers of the book series will have quibbles with it, but Frank Herbert admitted that film is a language different from English, while working with David Lynch on Dune, the movie. Frank said, "[David Lynch] spoke it and I was a rank beginner. To make a film, you translate, as though from English to German. Each of the world's languages contains linguistic experiences unique to it's own history. You can say things in one language you cannot say in another." I'll keep this in mind, with SciFi's upcoming effort to adapt Children of Dune to the screen.

Looking back on it, I realize I did the right thing instinctively. You don't write for success. That takes part of your attention away from the writing. If you're really doing it, that's all you're doing: writing.
There's an unwritten compact between you and the reader. If someone enters a bookstore and sets down hard earned money (energy) for your book, you owe that person some entertainment and as much more as you can give. That was really my intention all along.
Its worldwide appeal spans hard-core gamers, casual computer users, and even gaming's most elusive group of consumers, women. Over
50 percent of new Sims players are female."
Other game makers should take heed to this. Targetting females or more specifically not targetting only males would make a lot of other games sell much better. IANAW, but I'm sure women aren't impressed with big breasts and alpha blended puddles of blood. And to tell you the truth, I don't care for it much either.
Sure, a hot chick on the box will sell a few copies but good gameplay and depth in a game is what makes people tell thier friends to buy the game too. Say what you want about the Simms - it's definatly an involved game. That's why it sold so good.
Maybe an open source business model could work. Lets say company X needs a program for a particular purpose. To get that done they either have to spend a lot of money and do it themselves or pay a lot of money to have someone do it for them.
Suppose they could instead give the specs to VA (and thus us) in a sourceforge-like environment. VA could charge lets say half of what it would normally cost them.
What does company X get out of it? It gets the job done. They get *great PR* with the linux community.
What does VA get out of it? They charge for being a gateway between the community and company X.
What do we get out of it? We get OSDN. Sure, we already have that but as things are, it wont be forever. Plus, these projects will be released GPL?, so everyone benifits.
It seems that VA has dished out lots of free beer. I wouldn't mind working on a project or two to help them out. It's the least we could do.
<p>But to her surprise, she found instead that the new material was magnetic even above 200 C. Until now, the highest temperature at which a non-metallic material was magnetic was 255 C. This record was held by a different form of buckyballs. </p>

Many many hours ago,
in a Home Office
from another continent far far away...
staff watch as census forms
are being counted electronically...
Tally marks which determine
the fate of these people.
Sir Vader: "Why aren't those forms completed yet!"
low wage staff member #1: "This stack of forms wont feed through this machine here."
Sir Vader:*(in a rumbling voice)* Let me try!" *Vader attempts to feed the forms through the machine, but they fail.* "Hmm, the force is strong with these ones. What does the religion field say?"

Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the Internet Outback Safari. I'm your tour guide, Aligator Hunter and of course you all know my nephew, Crocadile Hunter.
On you left is a dot.com tech company. While once they roamed this jungle, they now are on the brink of extinction. Similar to the dodo bird, they animals were born with no sense of self-preservation.
You'll see up ahead the mating ritual of several humans. This is what's known as a porn site. Crikey! Would you look at that! That's the biggest mating orgy I've seen! Oiy!
Moving on, we see slashdot.org. Folks, I would like to take this moment to remind you all to keep your hands inside the vehicle and by all means, Don't Feed the Trolls! If my nephew C. Hunter were here, he'd get one in a headlock so you fine folks could get a closer view.
This concludes our first leg of the trip. Up ahead you'll see a tourist stand with OFF flame spray (tm) which is quite useful to repell flaming trolls. Also, dont forget to pick up a colorful map of the Internet Outback. We meet back in 30 minutes. Have fun.
...the country of Poland is being charged under the DMCA for creating a device capable of circumventing copyright. What they did was clear disrespect for the Nazi's intellectual property rights.

You make a good point about if false positives are too common, all positives will be skimmed over.
I have a point to add as well. I couldn't help but also think, what if you or I were a person who "fit the system's description" of a known terrorist. We would be stopped Everywhere, All The Time. The system would have to. Either that or give up on matches of you AND the terrorist. If this technology becomes widespread, imaging the Hell it would be to be one of those people. You would be harassed wherever you go, indefinatly. It's profiling via computer system. Sure, "fitting the discription" would be much narrower than driving while black, but it's the same concept and consequences.
And what's to stop a terrorist from wearing cosmetics. If cosmetics exist to make an actor look like a klingon, I'm sure they exist to sufficiently change one's appearance to defeat this stupid system.
"First they tell you you're wrong and they can prove it; Then they tell you you're right but it isn't important; Then they tell you it's important but they knew it all along." -Charles Kettering
If the majority of people are forced into using the new incryption w/ backdoors it seems like the system would actually work. Think about it. If everyone has to use encryption w/ backdoor, all they'd have to do is scan for an encrypted stream that doesn't have key that works, as it would automatically be suspect. I'm sure they have the means to break encryption if they needed to, but breaking all the encryption on the net just isn't feasable. It seems like a good way to isolate the "juicy stuff" they're probably looking for.
I'm totally against this, but I cant help it making sense. Someone please provide arguements to the contrary.

Thanks to everyone who spoke out against the arrest of Dmitry and made it a very unpopular move, a very large coorporation has backed down from it's position. This is a huge step forward. Now it's our turn to do the Right Thing and let them know we appreciate thier turn around.
Next time either of these baseball players decline your request for an autograph, you know how to get even. Bingbong and Cylc are probably on everyone's PK list. I wonder how long it will be until professional atheletes and celebrities will have to keep not only thier personal life, but also thier gaming characters anonymous.
What's the deal with every software project having to come up with a code name for each release. RedHat 7.1 = Seawolf? Slash 2.0 = Bender? Sagan, BHA? I mean, what's wrong with calling it Slash 2.0 from the start?
Maybe the code name is to avoid public embarassment. Say for example two Developers are discussing code at dining place, saying "2.0" or other such numbers is sure to catch the ears of those sitting nearby. People will start glancing towards then quickly away, muttering things like "what are those geeks talking about". It can get real ugly.
They call it Bender so when they talk about it in public, no one knows what they're talking about and no one really knows they're geeks. It's really sneaky when you think about it.
Of course, thier cover is blown is they start talking with Recursive Acronyms!
However, in other fields where it's more text based (like "read these 4 books" instead of "study chapter 3 on partial differentials"), the papers could be excessively similar because they all draw phrases from the same sources.
You make a very good point. A deal of effort should be made to make sure that these students were blatantly cheating. Perhaps look up other papers the student's wrote to see if those papers were also plagiarized. They're talking about taking away diplomas from students who have already graduated so they better be damn sure the students are guilty.
Any kind of robust scheme is going to involve an update to people's players
That's tricky, because the industry doesn't want to break compatibility with the current platforms in homes around the world. "We don't want to make their hardware obsolete," says Brad King, (MPAA).
Set it up such that whenever a logged in student saves a file to disk, it also saves a copy in thier home directory. If a disk gets currupted, there will always be a copy on the server for retrieval.
This might raise a privacy issue as a student might not wish everything they save to disk to be copied to the server. Make sure each student is aware of this, and explain to them why it is a Good Idea to save his/her files to the server, and let them disable this behavior if they so choose.
If you choose alternative media types such as flash RAM not only will the schools have to install new drives, but so will the students which isn't really practical. This idea might be a bit more practical and hopefully save you a bunch of headaches.
-If something doesn't work, hit it. If it continues to not work, hit it again. That should do the trick.
Ok, so the guy's motives are questionable. His language and profanity is questionable. The manner in which he dealt with the cops is questionable. The fact that he still has 4th amendment rights is not questionable.
Refusing to submit to a search when you have done nothing wrong is not "being uncooperative" or "having something to hide", it's your right. Sure the guy was being a jerk about it, but if enforcers of the law (and of citizen's rights) don't have to respect his rights, they don't have to respect anyone elses 4th amendment rights. And quite often they don't. Protecting the rights of people you dislike ensures yours will be protected as well.

Right. Humans do emit infrared. Except infrared doesn't pass through solid objects as readily as this band of spectrum does.
The reason isn't news because of the discovery of this spectrum of radiation, but because of the ability to focus and record it. As I understand it, it is much more difficult for machinery to detect than radio or light wave frequencies and required some sort of nano manufacturing based upon the species of moth that has antenae that can sense radiation in this spectrum.
Hope that clears things up.
Like light, it is possible to focus the radiation and create images as if the intervening material were translucent. From what I gather, you could focus such a device similarly to how you focus a regular camera. Putting things at different tissue depths into focus. And since your body emits this radiation from all depths, only the stuff that is in focus would be seen.
