Anyone who has had any experience with a Tesla Coil will know that if you hold a flourescent lightbulb near the coil whilst it is discharging, the bulb will light up. The faster your Tesla Coil cycles, the more of an appearence of "on" the bulb will have. It works because the coil emits electromagnetic pulses each time the current makes the jump from anode to cathode.
The pulse ionizes the bulb's internal gases and produces a plasma around the internal filament. The mercury is then ionized and begins to emit UV rays.
This really isn't news. Hell, the article talks about Tesla's efforts, which are about a century old.
"Pied Piper inc. is reportedly suing John Hopkins University under Chapter 11 of the NAFTA trade agreement, for fears that this will have an adverse effect on the rat-catching market as a whole. The Piper could not be reached for comment."
P.S. I didn't mean to imply that you were wrong. I was simply pointing out that your post was common information. The content of the post, however, is completely correct.
Umm... Yea... Basic anatomy, for the win. Artificial pacemakers (hint, artificial in the name implies that they are a copy of some organic component) are simply replication our heart's own pacemaker (the "node"), which send electrical signals telling the heart muscles to contract and so forth.
I should know. I have regular heart palpitations.:(
Sure there are, especially with the advent of internet publishing. Look at two of the hottest online FPS games, Day of Defeat and Counter-strike. Both were originally made by indie mod groups. However, both became so popular that they were bought up by a corporate entity. Look at Dystopia and Empires, two HL2 mods that are walking in the footsteps of DoD and CS. Though I must say that its much easier to make an independent game using a modification tools.
We can't rate hit indie games by their fiscal gross alone. Some of the most popular games out there (Continuum, anyone?) are free.
Damn terrorists... We're being wire-tapped because of them!
Damn child-pornography... Our records are being held because of them!
See? These two concepts are examples of overarching legislation. Its an idiotic and rather insulting attempt from our government to lower our personal privacy in the name of nabbing niche crime markets.
Since someone thinks this is offtopic, I will post an explanation. Evercrack is a nickname for Everquest due to its addicting nature. We see this behavior in almost all finely made MMORPGS. DAOC, WoW, FFXI, AO, etc. Lord knows I've spent enough of my life on games.
It seems we are becoming addicted to gaming. Games are like the next television. Within another decade, I'm sure television and gaming will merge (and I don't mean like the crappy adventure games of old).
If this were an actuality, not only would we have been able to detect the gravitational pull on our Sun, we would've also caught the planetary drift due to the moving sun.
Unless our sun is slowly orbiting some dark, dank mass of anti-matter, I believe we can put this theory to rest.
It will be March 1st, 2006 before the first image is available for searching, but NASA seems confident that enough users will be into is and that they'll meet an Oct 1st, 2006 deadline.

Could it be that the to-be-discovered Higgs boson particulars are causing effecting the past and causing malfunctions with the LHC's components? http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/discoblog/2008/08/11/will-the-lhc%E2%80%99s-future-cancel-out-its-past/

Just for God's sake, keep poker chips away!
No, in Soviet Russia, You drive the car. This article proves that!
An internal PEDOmeter?! Won't somebody think of the ants?!

We have them... They're called the "Rolling Stones".
I, for one, welcome our organic pace-maker wielding overlords (from Boston).

Well screw me sweetly. I clicked the wrong link. This post was in re: to my previous post.

Yo, bud... I've got some Evercrack here. By one hit, get one level free...
As long as I don't find my computer's monitor in my bed, I'm not upgrading.
