Bone actually works like that, the osteoclasts eat the bone and their direction is controlled by electrical stimulation generated by stresses in the bone, which is followed by osteoblasts which build up the bone. This results in the bone being strongest in the direction that is most likely to be stressed.
And the bacteria knows the difference between concrete and lung tissue how?
Well
Bacillus subtilis, known also as the hay bacillus or grass bacillus, is a Gram-positive, catalase-positive bacterium commonly found in soil.[3]... B. subtilis is not a human pathogen. It may contaminate food but rarely causes food poisoning.[5] B. subtilis produces the proteolytic enzyme subtilisin. B. subtilis spores can survive the extreme heat during cooking. B. subtilis is responsible for causing ropiness — a sticky, stringy consistency caused by bacterial production of long-chain polysaccharides — in spoiled bread dough. Bacillus subtilis
Spider silk is a remarkably strong material. Its tensile strength is comparable to that of high-grade steel (1500 MPa),[7][8] and about half as strong as aramid filaments, such as Twaron or Kevlar (3000 MPa).[9] Spider silk is about a fifth of the density of steel; a strand long enough to circle the Earth would weigh less than 500 grams (18 oz).[10] Spider silk
and the same calcium carbonate crystals as the original concrete, so it's easily conceivable that the repair might be stronger than the intact concrete.
Pistole said he "understood" the concern (and he added that children under 12 weren't subject to the enhanced pat-down). When one senator asked if this "understanding" meant changes were coming, Pistole was direct. "Am I going to change the policies? No." TSA boss: Our pat-downs turn up "artfully concealed objects"
(emphisis mine) so my understanding is children under 12 will be given the normal pat-down rahter than the enhanced pat-down. These guys are pros at saying things so that you'll believe they said something they didn't.
800C is pretty easy, even DYI stuff, 1000C is more of a stretch but still do-able. My industry sometimes uses microwave sintering ovens that will reach 1600C.
The Government pretty much behaves as a corporation or even an individual and among other activities it purchases items for use. Like any other individual or corporation many of the items it purchases might be less expensive if the barriers to market entry like patents didn't exist, or conversely they might be more expensive due to less competitors entering a market without barriers and their almost guaranteed profits. On one hand the item might not even exist without patent protection making the shifting the risk to benefit ratio for R&D investment or the additional innovation brought about be a lack of patent protection might make a particular item laughably obsolete. My guess is if you could really answer these questions, the Nobel committee would be calling you about a trip to Stockholm, because no one knows how much patents really cost the Government.
The systems involved are reported to be a Windows OS with a MSsql database; that the SCADA software was installed on. Seems to me that any Linux Distro with Postgresql would be suitable for the servers and there are several distro designed for embeded systems.
If the number of drives from the Iranian firm exceeds the number from the Finnish firm, Stuxnet unleashes one sequence of events. If the Finnish drives outnumber the Iranian ones, a different sequence is initiated.
Couldn't be giving the impression that Finnish Drives work better could it; even if it was intentional misdirection we have to include Finland and the manufacturer in the list of suspects as both have motive.
So the Iranians are going to whine that Persons or States unknown, wrote and installed a computer virus that caused the centrifuges for the Peaceful Iranian Nuclear Program to be limited to producing reactor grade fuel, as the Iranians themselves stated were their intentions, rather than weapons grade fuel, that hey stated was not their intentions? Seems like a tough sell to me and certainly better than having Israel making the enrichment plants go bye-bye.
Well it's not an Atlas but how about a 1/10 scale Saturn V with eight 13,000 Newton-second N-Class motors and a 77,000 Newton-second P-Class motor, that stands 36 ft tall and weighs 1648 pounds and flew to an altitude of 4440 feet?
Obviously, subjecting large corporations to serious penalties under law would be unamerican, and we generally avoid it; but America is crawling with angry and well armed people, many without too much to lose, and spree-killing is something we start practicing in high school.
BP could face as much as $17.6 billion in civil penalties, based on a federal panel of experts' estimate on Aug. 2 that about 4.1 million barrels of oil leaked from its well into the Gulf. BP: Now Come the Fines
BP paid the two largest fines in OSHA history – $87.43 million and $21.36 million – for willful negligence that led to the deaths of 15 workers and injured 170 others in a March 2005 refinery explosion in Texas. o In September 2005, OSHA cited BP for 296 “Egregious Willful Violations” and other violations associated with the explosion, fining BP $21.36 million and entering into a settlement agreement under which BP agreed to corrective actions to eliminate hazards similar to those that caused the explosion. Cost of Doing Business: BP’s $730 million in fines/settlements + 2 criminal convictions
They don't seem to care about fines, so I guess that trhey are just that ingrained that hurting them is like hurting yourself.
I had forgotten about those, they were the ones I wasn't allowed to have. I was thinking of the plastic guns that used the plastic caps on a ring, which will actually fit on a number 11 cap nipple and ignite the charge on my 0.36 caliber M1861 Naval Ball and Cap revolver
I'm going to have to say "citation needed" here, it would seem to me that the chamber pressure generated by a.45 round would far exceed the ability of a plastic toy gun to withstand. Even loading the bullets with black-powder instead of modern smokeless power would be stretching it considerably. If somebody made one purposely, using fiberglass/kevlar/carbon-fiber reinforced plastic I might buy it, but not a toy.
The ubiquity of (paper) printers and the easy availability of soft copies of books hasn't meant that book binders are going out of business. The physical book industry is hurting, true, but not because huge numbers of people are printing off their own pirated copy of the latest best-seller.
Artisan book-binderies are doing quite well. People are spending considerable amounts of money on getting their books well bound, much more than they'd spend on a purchasing a traditionally published book. Book-bindery is also extensively practiced as a hobby or boutique profession.
My industry is heading into this area, after using 3D milling machines going to 3D printers was a natural evolutionary step, especially in areas where thickness is more critical. We do a lot of lost wax investing in the dental lab industry, the basic process is 5,000 years old and is used in many artistic and artisan endeavors. Basically anything you can sculpt in wax or clear resins can be used as long as it burns out ashlessly, just sprue and burn out the resin, using a 3D printer is probably over-kill. You can invest with common industrial molding plaster all the way to silver, Gold or Chrome alloys need high-temperature investments.
If you purchased them legally. you could. Now if you wanted a special deal like purchasing at wholesale prices rather than retail, it not going to happen withoutr a contract. I don't see the purpose of buying DVD at retail price and selling them at retail price in other regons.

You see to make a parody, requires creative effort, not merely copying other's work and making slight changes. the style is copied. The musical "Westside Story" is a parody of "Romeo and Juliet"; Lamebook is not a parody of Facebook.

They were also implying that the lesser resolution millimeter-wave scanner would be the norm, now it seems they are not being used at all.
