A day to grind
LAKE FOREST - Julie Kindstrand ditched school and went on a tour of skate parks.
"I wasn't going to miss out, it's a national holiday," said the 13-year-old from Santa Ana, whose father took Julie and her friends to several parks in Orange County. "This day is so cool, it's my favorite holiday - just under Christmas, because that's Jesus' birthday."
On Wednesday, Julie and thousands of skateboarders around Orange County, as well as throughout the nation and world, celebrated "Go Skateboarding Day" - a holiday in the skateboarding community.
From Vans at The Block at Orange to the Volcom Skatepark of Costa Mesa to Centennial Park in Santa Ana and etnies Skatepark in Lake Forest, skaters kick-flipped, rode the rails and stairs, caught air and competed in "death races" to celebrate the day. Others held fundraisers, skated across cities and gathered at skate shops creating a grind heard around the world.
The International Association of Skateboard Companies, a Rancho Santa Margarita-based organization, launched the June 21 event three years ago to raise awareness of the issues skateboarders face - such as lack of facilities - and to show the world what the sport is about.
The day has expanded to include a growing number of events worldwide. Skateboarding has evolved into a $5.2 billion industry with 52 million skateboarders worldwide, 22 million of them in the U.S.
Skate parks number 2,000 across the nation. Simultaneous events were held in Mexico, Ukraine, the United Kingdom and Egypt.
"The whole holiday is about getting out and skating," said Laurie Bergthold, spokeswoman for the skateboard association. "It's like Christmas and New Year's all rolled into one for skateboarders. We want to make people aware that skateboarding is a legitimate activity, it's a sport and an art form. It's not limited by age, color or creed. Anyone can get on a skateboard and try it."
At etnies Skatepark, more than 1,000 turned out. They took part in a barbecue, death races and picked up giveaways from etnies, Flip, Baker, Birdhouse, fury and hook-ups.
Pierre Andre Senizergues, owner and CEO of etnies, worked with the city in a joint venture to create the 2 1/2 -year-old park. He took three hours off his 15-hour workday and practiced tricks - a double ollie kick flip and a handstand kick flip - he hadn't done in 16 years.
"This is a good way to let the community know and demonstrate that skateboarding is about having fun and pushing your passion to the next level," said the former pro skateboarder. "A lot of kids need direction and if this is something they love to do, it's good to support them so they feel recognized."
For Julie, skating is everything. Two months ago, she took seventh place in the Pro Tech Pool Party at Vans. She has a ramp in her back yard and hopes to go pro this summer.
"Skateboarding is super fun," she said. "Taking the day off school encourages other people to notice the sport and hopefully make it a real national holiday. Tomorrow my teachers are going to be like, 'You go Julie, you're in there.' My science and history teachers encourage me to skate."

SIERAAD Art Fair
SIERAAD Art Fair
The 15th edition of SIERAAD Art Fair (SAF) will be the most international one. SAF is the only platform in the Netherlands where professional contemporary jewellery designers from home and abroad sell their work directly and in person. To add lustre to this edition of SAF there will be some special events and striking presentations. The 16th edition of SIERAAD art Fair, 9-12 November 2017.
SIERAAD Art Fair, held from November 10 through 13 in the Amsterdam Westergashouder, was without doubt a special edition as part of the fifteenth anniversary. That means fifteen years of unsubsidized cultural entrepreneurship in a very interesting and trendy niche. An event like this cannot be organized for so many years and so successfully without you, our visitors!
The success of SIERAAD is to a large extent determined by the exhibitions. This year's highlight was undoubtedly the exceptional exhibition "VIEREN-CELEBRATE" on the central axis with a special selection from the largest ethnological jewellery collection in Holland. It was the outcome of an inspiring collaboration with the Amsterdam Tropenmuseum, the Ethnological Rijksmuseum in Leiden and the Africa Museum in Berg en Dal. It was also a first: highlights from the combined jewellery collection were presented here for the first time and in a non-museum setting at that. The exhibition as backbone of the fair was a resting point and point of reference: people took ample time to view all the pieces and read the descriptions. We were not the only ones celebrating an anniversary. Galerie Ra, one of the prominent galleries specialized in contemporary jewellery design, celebrated its 40th anniversary. For this occasion owner and jewellery designer Paul Derrez displayed a historic overview of contemporary jewellery design with jewellery from his own collection.

The Social Costs of Health-related Early Retirement in Germany: Evidence from the German Socio-economic Panel
This study investigates the role of stratification of health and income in the social cost of health-related early retirement, as evidenced in the German Socio-economic Panel (GSOEP). We interpret early retirement as a mechanism to limit work-related declines in health that allows poorer and less healthy workers to maximize the total discounted value of annuities received from Germany's pay-as-you-go pension system. Investments in new medical technology and better access to existing health services may help to curb the need for early retirement and thus improve efficiency, especially amid population ageing. To value the potential gains, we calibrate an intertemporal model based on ex post predictions from stratified duration regressions for individual retirement timing. We conclude that eliminating the correlation between income and health decline would delay the average age of retirement by approximately half a year, while keeping all workers in the highest of five categories of self assessed health would yield a further delay of up to three years. Had this scenario been realized during our 1992–2005 sample period, we estimate the social costs of early retirement would have been more than 20 percent lower, even without counting the direct social benefits from better health

The war was not going well, and we liberal warmongers were under pressure to justify Nato strategy; radio presenters are rarely on the wrong side of a running argument, and their scepticism at our belief in the need for intervention was becoming almost physical.
This, they were suggesting, was what happened when ex-hippies got to starting wars. But even allowing for this atmosphere of hostility, I was not prepared for the scale of the VJ's assault. The words he used were the words of complete dismissal: incompetent, ludicrous, absurd, misconceived, stupid and so on. "This New World Order," he finally spat, "I hate it."
But what's to hate? The New World Order, a relative of the Ethical Foreign Policy, connotes a very loose post-Cold War agreement on how, and according to what principles, the world should now be policed. Based substantially on the wealth and armed might of the world's one remaining superpower, the United States, it suggests that the more that can be done to make all countries into liberal, minority-loving democracies, the better it will be for everyone. In other words, let us help them to be more like us.
For 40 years this is not what we said. Then our enemy's enemy was our friend. "He may be a bastard," as an American president once remarked of a client dictator, "but he's our bastard." A highly pragmatic diplomacy operated, aimed at consolidating spheres of influence.
But where do we stand now? These days, any Tom, Dick and Harriet thinks he or she owns our foreign policy. You get a few heads on sticks, and the shout suddenly goes up for intervention, for troops, for anything. What, the VJ might ask, have the Indonesians ever done to us? Or the East Timorese done for us? How many of the inhabitants of, say, Carlisle, can place Dili within the correct hemisphere? What happened to West Timor? Is there one at all, or does Timor just end abruptly in the middle? It is, the VJ may well argue - deploying his armoury of heavy-calibre words - absurd, ludicrous and misconceived for us to get involved.
Heads on sticks. Terrified women pushing their kids over the UN compound wall. Guys in fatigues wielding machetes. Shades of Rwanda, shades of Bosnia, shades of the pogroms. Who could name the capital of Rwanda, until suddenly it was full of the corpses of Tutsis? But let me ask you this: knowing what you now know, what would you give to be able to turn the clock back, and put Western armoured cars between the Interahamwe and those they were about to slaughter? Would it be worth pounds 100? More?
This is not a costless world, unless you are a radio presenter. Or a cartoonist. Only they can portray Western intervention as a bumbling, ithyphallic Clinton astride a Cruise at one moment, and then draw a gasbag UN blethering as children die the next. Heads he wins, tails you lose - if only satirists ruled the planet.
So New World Order people like me (and maybe you) - we softies who cannot bear to see heads on sticks - have a lot of awkward questions to answer. Earlier in the week, Kofi Annan, the UN Secretary-General, was asked about the deployment of an armed UN force to police the passage of East Timor from Indonesian rule to the independence that the people had just voted for. "I wish," he said rather gently, "it were that easy to convince the governments to give you troops for some of these operations. Even in some situations when we've been given a clear mandate with a need for a peace- keeping force we've not been able to get the forces from them."
If we NWO types had our way, this situation would be much worse. When Mr Annan refers to peace-keeping he's primarily talking about standing between two antagonists, whose conflict might threaten world peace. But I also want the ability to intervene in the domestic affairs of sovereign nations, where that is the only way of protecting large groups of civilians from being massacred. My conscience requires lots and lots of troops.
In East Timor, Britain is unlikely to be asked for more than logistical support for an Australian-led operation. The Americans (naturally) will be leant on to contribute rather more. I imagine that the Portuguese, as former colonial rulers, will also want to do their bit. But it doesn't change the fact that this need to set the world to rights is an expensive and a difficult business for us as a country.
A large part of our armed forces is now tied up in Bosnia, Northern Ireland and Kosovo, and will be for a long time. Another international crisis, and we would be unable to do very much to help. And my foreign policy requires that we employ more soldiers and pilots, equip them better, and use them more often.
This is hard for me, since - like many liberals - I am very uncomfortable about guys with guns. The very characteristics that might make fighting people effective (such as controlled savagery), scare the living daylights out of me. My idea of absolute hell is Saturday night in the Squaddie's Arms, Aldershot, and yet here I am advocating that it is time to beat our ploughshares back into swords.
And, although I dislike the notion of imperialism, my policy also requires sometimes substituting my judgement for that of rulers in far-off lands. How confident am I that UN intervention in East Timor will not strengthen the hands of those in Jakarta who oppose reform? Might it not be better to turn the clock back to the days of nudging dictators in the right direction, and of keeping the troops at home?
That, of course, was the Old World Order. Let us recall its other great successes. It delayed for over 30 years the implementation of sanctions against the apartheid regime in South Africa. It gave covert military support for Unita in Angola, Renamo in Mozambique and the contras in Nicaragua, thus blighting three poor countries for a generation. It connived in the 40-year marginalisation of the Palestinians. And it permitted the Indonesians to annex East Timor, using weapons supplied by our arms industries.
That was only the West. Meanwhile the Russians were busy giving it out from the other side of the great divide. Communism's greatest export turned out not to be the empowerment of the masses, but the Kalashnikov.
So East Timor may provide a challenge to the New World Order, but it also shows the fatal flaw in the Old one. Which is that what goes about, comes about.

Advertisers are willing to pay three times more for cookie-based ads, and as much as seven times more per impression if the cookie is 90-days old, according to a study by Navigant Economics for the Digital Advertising Alliance. The study also noted that legislation ending these ads would hurt small sites and push more content behind pay walls. "This shows interest-based advertising is the workhorse for subsidizing content on the Internet," said DAA Managing Director Lou Mastria.

ASHEVILLE - It was Family Fun Night in a big way at the Civic Center Saturday, as Asheville broke a brief two-game losing skid with a 119-94 romp over Fayetteville. The victory was the Altitude's second home win of the season and avenged Friday night's four-point loss to the Patriots in the two-game homestand.
Desmond Penigar's 15 first-quarter points on 7-for-11 shooting and 1-of-1 from the foul line helped the Altitude jump to a 26-23 advantage, their first lead over the Patriots in five quarters over the past two nights.
Thanks to the 6-8 Penigar's opening period production, Asheville dominated the paint area throughout the evening with a 32-point advantage.
"Anytime anybody can come out and score like that it puts a spark in your team," said Penigar, the league's leading scorer at 20.9 points per game. "I hit some key shots and that opened it up a little bit."
Asheville widened the lead to 57-50 at the break thanks in part to a hot 13-of-14 from the free throw line during the second quarter.
In the third period the Altitude clamped on the defense and widened their lead to double-digits.
"The second half our best defensively in a while," said Asheville head coach Joey Meyer. "We really played with a lot of energy and had a better sense of urgency out there.
"We got some stops and kept scoring and just played a little better defensively. But we still need to get all our guys some more touches."
Saturday was the fifth win for the Altitude on TV games against no losses, as the game was televised on NBA TV on the Dish Network for the rest of America. The game will be shown on tape delay.
"We kept our string on TV," Meyer said.
"I think I'm going to put up some fake TVs in the stands from now on."
Penigar led the scoring with 28 points and swingman Lavor Postell had 16 for Asheville. Wake Forest product Rusty LaRue came off the bench in his third game since joining the team and also had 16.
"He's going to help us a lot," Meyer said of the sweet-shooting LaRue.
"He's the best shooter in the league, and you saw what he did when they came out in a zone."
The Altitude play another home game Monday afternoon in a 1 p.m. contest against Roanoke.
The game marks the return of the Dazzle's Mikki Moore, who recently spent 10 days with the NBA's New Jersey Nets.

The service was impeccable!! Bruce was extremely helpful, welcoming, and best of all- – he did not try to sell us something we didn't need. We received a great deal today and they will deliver our king size mattress for FREE! I was happy about that one. The place was very clean and we were able to try out each mattress in order to find a match for us. I will recommend this place to all of my friends.

Boehner Gets Enough Votes To Stay In His Seat For Two More Years! Jan 4th 2013, 12:00 If this isn't proof that we the people have zero control… SMH. After all of the fails and disrespect the last month alone, this man still gets voted back in. Via The Huffington Post: Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-Ohio) has retained his top leadership position in the U.S. House of Representatives after a vote by the new Congress. Boehner was not challenged for the position, but there was skepticism he may lose the spot after the heated fiscal cliff battle that culminated in a New Year's Day deal. Of 426 votes cast on Tuesday, Boehner received 220. Others who received votes for the speakership include Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), former Secretary of State Colin Powell, former Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) and former Comptroller General David Walker. The AP reports: WASHINGTON — The House and Senate ushered in a new Congress Thursday, re-electing embattled Republican John Boehner speaker and hailing one of its own senators who returned a year after being felled by a stroke. The 113th Congress convened at 12 noon EST, the constitutionally mandated time, with pomp, pageantry and politics, on both sides of the Capitol. Boehner, bruised after weeks with his fractious caucus and negotiations with the White House on the fiscal cliff, won a second, two-year term as leader with 220 votes. Despite grumbling in the GOP ranks, just 10 Republicans voted for someone other than Boehner. Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi got 192 votes. In the Senate, Vice President Joe Biden swore in 12 new members elected in November, lawmakers who won another term and South Carolina Republican Tim Scott. The former House member was tapped by Gov. Nikki Haley to fill the remaining term of Sen. Jim DeMint, who resigned to head a Washington think tank. While the dozens of eager freshmen are determined to change Washington, they face the harsh reality of another stretch of divided government. The traditions come against the backdrop of a mean season that closed out an angry election year. A deal to avert the "fiscal cliff" of big tax increases and spending cuts split the parties in New Year's Day votes, and the House's failure to vote on a Superstorm Sandy aid package before adjournment prompted GOP recriminations against the leadership. "There's a lot of hangover obviously from the last few weeks of this session into the new one, which always makes a fresh start a lot harder," Rep. Kevin Brady, R-Texas, said. For all the change of the next Congress, the new bosses are the same as the old bosses. President Barack Obama secured a second term in the November elections, and Democrats tightened their grip on the Senate for a 55-45 edge in the new two-year Congress, ensuring that Reid will remain in charge. Republicans maintained their majority in the House but will have a smaller advantage, 233-200. Former Democratic Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr.'s Illinois seat and the one held by South Carolina Republican Tim Scott, the state's next senator, will be the two vacancies. Boehner, R-Ohio, has faced a bruising few weeks with his fractious GOP caucus but seemed poised to win another term as speaker. He mollified angry Republicans from New York and New Jersey on Wednesday with the promise of a vote Friday on $9 billion of the storm relief package and another vote on the remaining $51 billion on Jan. 15. The GOP members quickly abandoned their chatter about voting against the speaker. Hopefully these clowns can get their sh*t together soon.

Umbrella Smiles
Know just for you I'd swim the sea
from Mexico to Maine,
and then I'd smile umbrella smiles
to keep you from the rain,
my arms would be the clothing that
forever keeps you warm,
throughout the Winter months, so cold,
we'd brave whatever storm.
These big green skies, your starlit eyes
would always look on me,
they'd find their way into my heart
and never lose their key,
my love would light you from the clouds,
at least that's what I pray,
as lit by love our lips talk tongues,
then dance the night away.
Now all that's left for me to do
is swim the many miles,
from Mexico to Maine to see
you smile umbrella smiles.

Glad you found the movies you were looking for. I know that for many,
perhaps most, people, hitting the stores and sharing Christmas cheer while
you're at it is just as much a part of the season as the giving of those
gifts. But personally, I've had been through too many Christmases of not
being able to find just what someone wanted. This year many of the items my
family wanted were CDs, DVDs, and video games. It's a drag to get to the
store and find the movie he wants in dvd, but only in regular format, not
widescreen. Or the video game he wants is only in stock for nintendo and he
has Play Station 2. And she wants the latest Dido recording, but is 2002 the
most recent? And no, not the 2000 version of Rocky & Bullwinkle, the newer
Then there's the 40 pound 'portable' workbench. If Sears is willing to
offer it at the same price online with free shipping direct to your door,
why would I want to go to the maul and have to carry the 40-pounder half a
mile to the far reaches of the parking lot?
I find whatever possible online and then go to some stores for what must be
purchased locally. Franks didn't have the Norfolk Island Pine I was looking
for but they had a big clearance (75%off) on floating candles and half off
on baskets. My niece didn't ask for candles, but I know she loves them. I
filled a basket full of floaters of all kinds and even found a bowl to float
them in. Inexpensive enough so's I could add them to her CDs and DVDs
without busting a budget. So I had fun shopping without knocking myself
out trying to find elusive items.
I realize online shopping doesn't appeal to everyone, but it has served me
well and allows me to enjoy the season more.

Skip to comments.Scientists investigate the possibility of wormholes between stars
Posted on 02/26/2011 7:53:00 AM PST by LibWhacker
(PhysOrg.com) -- Wormholes are one of the stranger objects that arise in general relativity. Although no experimental evidence for wormholes exists, scientists predict that they would appear to serve as shortcuts between one point of spacetime and another. Scientists usually imagine wormholes connecting regions of empty space, but now a new study suggests that wormholes might exist between distant stars. Instead of being empty tunnels, these wormholes would contain a perfect fluid that flows back and forth between the two stars, possibly giving them a detectable signature.
The scientists, Vladimir Dzhunushaliev at the Eurasian National University in Kazakhstan and coauthors, have posted their investigation of the possibility of wormholes between stars on arXiv.org.
The scientists began investigating the idea of wormholes between stars when they were researching what kinds of astrophysical objects could serve as entrances to wormholes. According to previous models, some of these objects could look similar to stars.
This idea led the scientists to wonder if wormholes might exist in otherwise ordinary stars and neutron stars. From a distance, these stars would look very much like normal stars (and normal neutron stars), but they might have a few differences that could be detectable.
To investigate these differences, the researchers developed a model of an ordinary star with a tunnel at the stars center, through which matter could move. Two stars that share a wormhole would have a unique connection, since they are associated with the two mouths of the wormhole. Because exotic matter in the wormhole could flow like a fluid between the stars, both stars would likely pulse in an unusual way. This pulsing could lead to the release of various kinds of energy, such as ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays.
For now, the difficult part is calculating exactly what kinds of oscillations are occurring, and what kind of energy is being released. This information would allow scientists to predict what a wormhole-containing star might look like from Earth, and begin searching for these otherwise normal-looking stars.
Why not? These guys can't hold real jobs. They ought to investigated the possibility of monkeys flying out of their @sses, while theyre at it.
"...scientists predict that they would appear to serve as shortcuts between one point of spacetime and another." This translates, roughly, to: "...scientists think it would be cool if they existed." There is as much evidence of wormholes as there is of deities. You can look and look for the proof, but until it shows up, it's slow news day material.
Of course.
There is no other place wormholes could be.
If within a star, there would be no star. If in a black hole, there would be no worm hole.
It has to have something to do with global warming or climate change or whatever they call it today.
Algore seems to have originated from space.
Aw,shucks. Just send all your money to him and maybe he'll shut up.
Maybe the wormholes exist in their brains possibly explaining why their "theories" instantly pop-up in the brains of their like-minded fellow "scientists"?
Perhaps they connect Hawkings' "parallel universes" /s
They had spaceships that could travel sublight using normal acceleration, but could "jump" between stars, but only at the "Alderson point" - apparently a "wormhole" that existed between stars that their "Alderson drive" could make use of.
Wormholes actually exist between the dandelions on my front lawn.
Butt monkey scene.
Well, it would probably be too hot to travel between wormholes from one star to another, so we'll have to go at night....
Throughout the past thousand years of history it has been traditional to regard the Alderson Drive as an unmixed blessing. Without the faster than light travel Aldersons discoveries made possible, humanity would have been trapped in the tiny prison of the Solar System when the Great Patriotic Wars destroyed the CoDominium on Earth. Instead, we had already settled more than two hundred worlds. A blessing, yes. We might now be extinct were it not for the Alderson Drive. But unmixed? Consider. The same tramline effect that colonized the stars, the same interstellar contacts that allowed the formation of the First Empire, allow interstellar war.
The worlds wrecked in two hundred years of Secession Wars were both settled and destroyed by ships using the Alderson Drive. Because of the Alderson Drive we need never consider the space between the stars. Because we can shunt between stellar systems in zero time, our ships and ships drives need cover only interplanetary distances. We say that the Second Empire of Man rules two hundred worlds and all the space between, over fifteen million cubic parsecs.
Consider the true picture. Think of myriads of tiny bubbles, very sparsely scattered, rising through a vast black sea. We rule some of the bubbles. Of the waters we know nothing. .
Great book I'm re-reading now.
I cannot believe that there hasn't been a movie.
A movie would start out all ET and Reese's pieces and then go all Aliens with living killing machines! "Nuke it from orbit - its the only way to be sure." Except the Moties ate up nukes for breakfast!
Those "Alderson points" sound exactly like wormholes between stars.
I love all the anti-science posts. Way to live down to the Leftist stereotypes of conservatives, guys.
Probably one of the best books I have ever read and you are right about the movie. For years I wondered why this excellent story wasn't turned into a movie.
I believe pink elephants also connect distant stars. There's every bit as much evidence for that as there is with the BS they are running. This is another one of those things that I 'wish' were true, and I would like to believe it, but until there is real evidence.....
There is a reason why people around the world come to America for a university level education.
There is a reason why the USA is at the forefront of new drugs and biological discoveries that benefit the world - and provide intellectual and manufacturing jobs in the USA.
Now some of these models may be far-fetched - but SOMEONE is going to discover the next major breakthrough in Physics, it seems long overdue to me, and as an American I think it should be discovered in America.
Muppets might work.
Those would be some awesome looking muppets!
And the warrior moties would have to look like living moving demons. Never miss, never break discipline, think tactics and killing and little else.
It is such a good story. Love story, mystery, intrigue, betrayal, contraband, a great mystery, a great secret, the big reveal, and the fallout.
A GREAT movie!
They really have no clue. Cosmology has become nothing more that wild-eyed science fiction.
Please remember, you're reading the words of a science reporter, not the well reasoned arguments of the scientists themselves
Wormholes, like black holes, are simply products of general relativity theory. They are a logical product, and it is reasonable to research whether they exist.
Had an acquaintance at Los Alamos about 10 years ago who was trying to construct a wormhole. With enough energy in a small enough spot he calculated that he could warp spacetime and create a wormhole for a femtosecond or so. His dream was to try to obtain images of what was on the other end of the hole. Reminds me of Buckaroo Banzai and the creatures from the Eighth Dimension.
In Iain M Banks' "The Algebraist," wormholes connect all large gas giants in the universe - which are all inhabited by a very reclusive and insular, very long-lived, radically nonhuman race called the Dwellers.
The Dwellers use the pathways when it suits their purposes, and never for purposes of others - their use of and the very existance of that use is a closely held secret.
It's rapidly getting worse; we're reaching a point where some scientists with an interesting hypothesis are drawing the same level of derision and hatred as a teacher that molests a dozen school girls.
It's not JUST that some people associate ALL of science with AGW, and not just creationists, either - is it just the equivalent of picking on the smart kid in school because he understands stuff that you don't?
That would be Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle for $100, Alex.
Who was Mr. Femto anyway and why did he get a unit of time named for him? One of Stalin's spies, no doubt...
What does a normal neutron star look like anyway? And what is the opposite—a rainbow-colored gay neutron star?
It'd have to be very carefully done, though, so as not to become a geek-fest. Niven and Pournelle tend(ed) to write for an audience that was already well-acquainted with science fiction in general, and their particular universe in particular. And it has to be said, their grasp on love and intimacy was rather geekish and mechanical.
To do the story justice, the screen adaptation would need to be done by somebody who could turn it into a more human sort of story; or, alternatively, the human element could be pared down to the usual action-movie caricatures, and then it could be turned into a great explosion movie.
Brute force is always tempting for such things.... but one wonders if quantum entanglement (which has been demonstrated) is somehow already using wormholes or something like them.....
Yep, a pitiful failure of public education.
I don't know if they would look the opposite if they had one end of a wormhole at the center, just that their spectral fingerprint would give them away or they would pulsate in some telltale way, etc. Didn't read the paper myself; when I read something, I like to understand at least 10% of it. :-)
Incidentally, I saw one of those little factoid things on neutron stars a few months ago that said if you fell off your bar stool on a neutron star, you'd hit the ground at three million miles per hour.
Actually had one for a roommate once. Good guy; but had to ask him to put pants on before I brought my date in.
Never thought of quantum entanglement and the connection to worm holes.
I am an engineer; I always look for applications. Did you see my comments on the cloaking device? Dunno if that was ever built.
We need eggheads. Because they are eggheads. Some people do not understand.
"These guys cant hold real jobs."
Tell that to Jim Simons http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Simons
Barrayar or bust!
anyway, as I was saying, can't hold real jobs. Where would these "researchers" be without my fcking tax dollars? /rhetorical question.
Because who ever owns the rights to the book hasn't sold the movie rights or who ever bought the movie rights is sitting on it. A not uncommon practice in Hollywood.
Here are just a few of the hundreds of devices and inventions that have been developed from knowledge gained with NASA space engineering.

quantum entanglement = absolutely secure digital comms.
go engineer up one for me.
I know for a fact wormholes exist. I have them in my back yard.
I'm not an EE.
However, what you asked for is under development. For all I know, we already have it. I was in meetings discussing faster-than-light comm many years ago when entanglement first became known. The application was obvious.
Dang plagerists always steal my ideas.
On time, I was meeting with the chief engineer at GM (back in the day when it was not government owned), and I explained to him how the radio needed to be wired into the speedometer.
Before the meeting was done, he stole my idea, and had it installed on my truck. He must of done, because he took me outside to my truck and showed me how to work it.
