A new weapon being developed by Boeing hopes to defeat targets without actually destroying them. Instead, it uses a powerful microwave burst to disable electronic devices as it flies overhead.
The idea of the "electro-magnetic pulse," or EMP, is a popular one in science fiction: for decades, guns and missiles have disabled starships and facilities by shutting down their electronics ? but the real thing has proven a bit more difficult to create.
Researchers at Boeing's Phantom Works succeeded last week when tests of their new weapon proved it to be even more potent than expected. They call it the Counter-electronics High-powered Advanced Missile Project, or CHAMP.
The tests in Utah had the missile buzzing test structures full of electronics and cameras. The idea is that targeting these buildings with an intense burst of microwave radiation would knock out any electronically-controlled systems within.
And that's what happened ? in spades. The CHAMP worked so well that even the cameras set up to record the effects inside the buildings were shut down. Such a weapon would be invaluable against enemy infrastructure like radar and missile launch sites.
How long the electronics are disrupted for would vary widely depending on how the electronics work and?how hard they were hit. The monitors shown in the video at Boeing's announcement of the tests only shut down for a few seconds, but something more complex, like?an interdependent network of computers and power sources, could be taken offline for much longer or even disabled completely.
Either way, the CHAMP was demonstrated successfully, and it will be a very useful tool when ordinary munitions are too risky to employ. The research was conducted in partnership with the U.S.?Air Force Research Laboratory and Raytheon Ktech.

LG Electronics has reported its earnings for Q3 2012, notching its third straight quarter of positive income with a net profit of 157 billion won ($138.57 million) and "solid" performances from its home theater and mobile businesses. Revenue is down from the same period last year, but seeing as it's actually making money this time around it's probably still reason to celebrate. On the mobile side of the aisle it reports an operating profit of $19.42 million with slightly higher sales than Q2, mostly thanks to those LTE smartphones it's been rolling out. Its home entertainment biz noted a rise in LCD sales, with 3D TVs and LED-lit models growing from last quarter in most markets. Looking towards the future it's obviously going all-in on the Optimus G (although our interests run towards the Nexus G that should debut next week), and also looks for its Ultra HD television to raise its standing as a premium brand.

University of Michigan Health System physician authors New England Journal of Medicine report on best options for safe, effective patient treatment
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- As the number of fungal meningitis cases continues to rise, physicians across the country are faced with how best to provide the early treatment that can save lives.
A University of Michigan Health System infectious disease expert is the lead author of a New England Journal of Medicine report detailing how the outbreak evolved and the complexities of providing anti-fungal treatments.
Carol F. Kauffman, M.D., has served as an advisor to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as it investigates the more than 200 cases of fungal meningitis linked to a contaminated steroid injected in patients for pain relief. A large number of patients in the outbreak are older adults, many of whom have substantial coexisting illnesses that make care decisions challenging.
None of the contaminated medicines were administered by the University of Michigan Hospitals and Health Centers.
Kauffman, a former board member of the Infectious Diseases Society of America, has focused her research career on diagnosis and treatment of fungal infections, especially in immunocompromised hosts, and prevention and treatment of infections in older adults.
"Treatment recommendations will certainly evolve as clinicians gain more experience with managing these infections," says Kauffman, chief of infectious diseases at the VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System and professor of internal medicine at the University of Michigan Health System.
"Given the (lack) of data pertaining to treatment and the complexity of management, decisions about the treatment of patients with proven or suspected infection should be made with the input of an infectious diseases specialist," she says.
Patients found to be infected are being treated with a fairly high dose of voriconazole, which can cause side effects including visual disturbances, confusion, hallucinations, nausea, and liver test abnormalities.
"There is appropriate concern about the toxicity of voriconazole, particularly at the doses recommended to treat meningitis," Kauffman says. "Visual hallucinations have been especially problematic in patients treated in this outbreak and appear to be related to high serum levels. Decreasing the dose of the drug will obviate this effect."
There are also significant drug-drug interactions. Administering voriconazole to patients who are already taking agents such as blood thinners, statins, benzodiazepines, and certain seizure medicines, to name just a few, should be done with care, Kauffman and others advise. Doctors should play close attention to decreasing the doses of other medicines and monitoring blood levels.
The CDC reports the death toll has risen to 20 people with 254 fungal meningitis cases confirmed in 16 states, including Michigan. Infections have only been found in patients injected with methylprednisolone acetate from the New England Compounding Center, which has been recalled.
The CDC advises patients who feel ill and are concerned they were injected with recalled products to contact their physicians. Doctors should be aware of symptoms of fungal meningitis and seek rapid diagnosis and treatment to prevent serious complications and deaths.
Typically in this outbreak, symptoms such as headache, fever, nausea, and neck stiffness -- have appeared one to four weeks following injection. But fungal infections can be slow to develop and patients should be vigilant about onset of symptoms for up to two months.

BELFAST, Maine ? The lunchtime crowd walking downtown on Wednesday may have wondered what ICLEI is and why it needed to be kicked out of town, as banners held on all four corners of the intersection of Main and High streets urged be done.
Protesters from the John Birch Society, a conservative group formed in 1958 to push for limited government and personal freedoms, said that the city was a member of the International Council on Local Environmental Initiatives. That group advocates for municipal policies that reduce energy consumption and mitigate climate change.
The John Birch Society protesters ? about a dozen in all ? also drew a connection between ICLEI and the United Nations? Agenda 21, a land-use planning initiative.
But it turns out the city is not a member of ICLEI.
A city committee, the Belfast Climate and Energy Committee, joined ICLEI and paid the $600 annual dues a few years ago to get information about how to reduce energy consumption in municipal buildings and promote similar strategies for residences and businesses, Belfast Assistant Planner James Francomano said Wednesday.
Roger Lee, a three-term city councilor seeking a fourth term, was a member of that committee and said Wednesday it is essentially defunct. The city stopped paying dues to ICLEI in 2010, but the organization?s website still lists Belfast as a member.
Hal Shurtleff of Boston, a regional field director of the John Birch Society who was among the protesters, said he concluded that Belfast was a member by reviewing ICLEI?s website. Wednesday?s protest was still valid, he said after the banners were taken down, because ICLEI is part of a larger effort to limit personal freedom.
?ICLEI is one tentacle? of other, larger efforts to impose limits on personal freedom, he said.
Two women holding the banners joined Shurtleff in denouncing ICLEI, saying the organization wanted to prevent people from purchasing certain kinds of vehicles and ending single residences because of their impact on climate change. Shurtleff said climate change was a myth.
Shurtleff is scheduled to present information about Agenda 21 at 7 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 7, at the Belfast Free Library.
City officials contacted ICLEI Wednesday to ask that Belfast be removed from the list of members.
Lee expressed dismay that ICLEI was cast as a villain.
?They?re a perfectly fine organization. They?re assisting municipalities all over the world,? he said.
Membership allowed the committee to receive software to estimate how energy use might be cut in municipal buildings. Committee members also were able to attend regional meetings to learn what other towns and cities were doing on the energy-efficiency front, Lee said.
?It?s pretty small-scale stuff,? he said. ICLEI does have ?a particular regimen they want you to follow. Our committee never did that.?
The city has improved energy efficiency at City Hall, and plans to do the same at the police station, the Belfast Free Library and the Boat House, Lee said.
A handout given to pedestrians on Wednesday featuring Shurtleff?s photo and biography noted that ? Agenda 21 will require a profound reorientation of all human society, unlike anything the world has ever experienced.?
During the protest, Shurtleff said planning and environmental initiatives conflicted with the personal liberty protections of the U.S. Constitution.
Lee remained perplexed.
?It?s hard to even understand [the protesters?] position,? Lee said. ?Apparently there?s something wrong with trying to live sustainably.?

By Melissa Patrick news@kykernel.com
The Elbert C. Ray eStudio is a studio that offers free tutoring in written, oral, visual and digital communication to students in the College of Engineering.
?We can help students in the quality of the work they produce and the way they professionalize themselves. We can make them better students now and better engineers later,? said Emily Dotson, assistant director of the eStudio.
The eStudio offers free tutoring for engineers in written communication tailored specifically to the technical writing, scientific reports and lab reports these students must master.
It also helps with everything from emails to grant proposals.
Tutors at eStudio, primarily upper-level Honors students from all fields of engineering, are available to help engineering students with their presentations.
?We have rehearsal spaces with white boards, cameras to tape presentations, and well-trained tutors to offer tips and feedback to improve presentations,? said Amber Troxell, acting director of the eStudio.
The eStudio also provides a state-of-the-art digital media lab.
Its sound booth is the same one used by Lady Gaga.
Video-editing software, digital video cameras, green screens, video and audio conversion software and photography equipment are available to all engineering students.
Tutors are trained on all the equipment an expert is always there to help.
The eStudio allows engineering students to check out most of the equipment to help with their projects and presentations.
Flip cameras, professional photography equipment and audio-recording equipment are all available for checkout.
Macs and personal computers are available for checkout for use in the studio only.
Whether used for drop-in tutoring or as part of EGR199, a class which provides a one-on-one, scheduled meeting time between a tutor and a student, eStudio provides an informal, friendly place for ESL students to get assistance with written and oral communication skills.
?This is a great tool for us to improve writing and speaking skills,? said Cedric Lukonga, an ESL senior in mining engineering.
While 80 percent of the services offered at eStudio are for engineering students, 20 percent are for faculty.
?We do workshops on any type of communication issue for engineering faculty and can customize them for the specific needs of the class,? Dotson said.
The eStudio is at Room 108A of the Ralph G. Anderson Building and is open Mondays through Thursdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Fridays from 10 a.m. to noon.
Engineering students can drop in for tutoring or make an appointment through eStudio?s online scheduling program, available on its website: www.engr.uky.edu/estudio.
Although the eStudio has been open to engineering students since September, it will host a grand opening at 3:30 p.m. Nov. 28 to promote it for engineering students and to honor Elbert C. Ray and Charles Scroggins, whose funding helped its creation.
Students, faculty and staff in the College of Engineering are invited to attend.
Stealth Survival: Types of Knives - The Sunfish skip to main | skip to sidebar
Types of Knives - The Sunfish
One of the most popular styles of pocket knives among collectors is the sunfish. While often referred to as a rope knife, the sunfish pattern is actually an early nineteenth century American pattern that was favored by many carpenters in the southern parts of America. Most sunfish patterns have a very wide back and a thick blade that is similar to a sailor?s rope knife. Most sailor?s knives or rigging knifes had a ?hawk bill? style of blade and quite often had a bail or hole for a lanyard. The majority of sunfish patterns do not have a bail (metal loop).While sunfish patterns were produced in various lengths, they commonly had the same thickness and width. The sunfish is normally a straight handle design with two bolsters but there are some that have a swayback type of handle. The blades are fairly short and are usually less than three inches in length. The main unique characteristic of a sunfish is their handle and their blades are usually quite wide.? Sunfish knives normally have two blades: a spear and a pen blade. There are some single blade patterns but these are not very common.The sunfish pattern is based on a double-ended jack knife pattern and has many different names that have been associated with it over the years. It?s been called an elephant toenail, a vest pocket axe, an oyster shucker and most certainly was not what could be considered a ?gentleman?s? knife. ?This pattern was most likely marketed with a wide variety of uses and this probably gave rise to the various names that are now associated with this style of pocket knife.One characteristic of the sunfish that is not commonly mentioned is the strength of its backspring. Due to its wider width, the backspring of a sunfish is amazingly strong for its size and it takes a modest amount of effort to open the blade as a result. It also takes some very careful maneuvering on your part when closing the blade. It is a very strong design for a ?working? knife that comes in a compact package.Staying above the water line!
Why bother following Brad as he inches his way closer to true love (or being bludgeoned by a stalker if he chooses Whitney), when we know in our heart of hearts that there is no friggin way it will last. In the last two weeks alone, we?ve discovered that Courtney (villainess extraordinare who put the whore in horrible on Season 16) has not only broken up with former Bachelor Ben Flajnik, but is now dating Bachelorette Emily Maynard?s sloppy seconds Arie Luyendyk. And let?s not forget that Emily herself has ended her engagement with her final pick, Jef Holm, after they were together for what, five minutes?
So based on the above, I?m thinking there is little to no chance that Brad and his woman of choice will last beyond New Year?s Eve. If that. But yet, we watch.
Last night?s episode certainly opened my eyes to many things, one of which was the unfortunate sight of Bianka?s bare dimpled ass cheeks. Did anyone else find it positively unsanitary?
Tyler, in what I have come to determine is the voice of the nicest guy ever in the world, slowly reveals there?s a six-on-one, a five-on-one, and a one-on-one date and that two people will be sent home. I gotta hand it to Tyler. The poor guy is trying so hard to do the best job possible with those six lines a week that he?s given.
As soon as I heard Kara got the first one on one, I was excited, but I seemed like the only one. Ana?s pissed because for once Brad isn?t rolling out the red carpet for her and Whitney flat out says she ?hates this girl?. It?s possible though, that Whitney may have just been in a foul mood because her eyebrows spontaneously changed colours. I?d be pissed too.
To prepare for her date, Kara vigorously washes her hands (or scrubs in for surgery ? not sure) with the strategically placed Softsoap, which later makes an appearance as Chantelle and Britney decide to have a bubble bath together ? am I the only woman who doesn?t bathe with my friends??? In fact, am I the only woman who pretty much doesn?t use my bath unless my contractions are about seven minutes apart? A quick tie of her shirt to prep for her denim on denim ensemble and off she goes to enjoy her two-on-two with Brad, Farmer Brownie and his wife at their cattle ranch in Lundbreck, Alberta ? aren?t we supposed to be staying away from beef these days?
There?s definitely something intriguing about Kara, so it was kind of amusing that when finally alone with her in a helicopter, surveying the beautiful Albertan rockies, Brad can think of nothing but if she?d be okay without her Ritalin. By the end of the date, as they cozied up surrounded by their perfectly contrived rustic-chic setting, it?s clear that watching her wrangle cattle is all Brad needs to wrangle himself a stiffie. Maybe that?s what finally relaxed him, or maybe it?s the Brokeback rancher who stayed right by his side, easing him into the perfect trot.
In the meantime, back at the house, Tia, clearly well into her second trimester based on her dress announces the group date featuring herself, Bianka, Brittany, Gabrielle and Ana. The girls are excited to go anywhere without Whitney, but you wanna know what I?m not excited about?? A) seeing Brad sporting side boob in a yellow tank top and B) staring at Ana in a bikini. Seriously?? That?s your body? Pardon me while I go eat my feelings.
When the girls find out they?ll be serving the community of the Riviera Nayarit I could have sworn I heard Gabi all like ?um?I don?t do selfless? So they throw some balls around with kids for the obligatory reveal that Brad?s a good person at heart and will make a good dad ? every season has at least one episode ? and by the time they get to their pool party back at the hotel and Brad removes his shirt to a chorus of embarrassing oohs and aahs (as he sucks it in so hard that his belly button hits his spine), he has definitely formed some strong opinions about the girls. There?s Gabi?s apparent sense of humour (which I?m still waiting to observe), there?s Ana?s?well?body (do you even have rolls when you sit, biatch?) and there?s Bianka?s intrigue as she reveals her connection to Kris Humphries while acknowledging to Brad that he?s gonna have to work for it if he wants a piece of her. Bianka?s antics, bare ass and all, were clearly enough to pique his interest because it?s she who receives his invitation for a special one-on-one date the next day.
I think Bianka summed up her excitement that morning by proclaiming ?I love boat? as they boarded their yacht and set sail for the day. I?d love to think that I?d be carefree and thrilled at the prospect of jumping off a yacht after sipping on champagne like I was living in a rap video, but my fear of sharks pretty much guarantees that I?d be the lame ass who?s like ?no you go ahead, I?ll watch? as I suffer a third degree sunburn and pass out from dehydration. Bianka seems to get it right though (if you don?t count another cellulite-revealing bikini bottom) and by the end of the date ? shocker ? she?s falling for him.
For the last date of the week, Nicole, Whitney, Laura B (who?s a little bit more country and a little less rock n? roll than I initially thought),Sophie, Chantelle and Michelle B (didn?t she get kicked off last week?) get to try their hand at lumberjacking, if that?s a verb. Between that and hearing Sophie say ?Let?s get ready to rumble? in a French-Canadian accent, this is where I started to get nervous that we?re entering into dangerous Canadian clich? territory. Let?s be honest, once we go there, there?s no turning back, eh?
I don?t know what was more challenging ? watching the girls scale poles, joust and saw lumber, or shielding my eyes from the unfortunate camel toes, muffin tops and back rolls accentuated by the ensembles the girls all wore. I don?t even think any of them stood a chance, to be honest. ?Even Whitney, who gets less attractive every time she?s on the screen wasn?t pulling any part of that outfit off, no siree.
Somehow, Whitney manages to make the date all about her ? it?s quite a talent, really, convincing us that she has ?assembled? the strongest team and that Brad purposely puts her on the competition dates because he knows she?ll win and he?ll get to spend more time with her. Sure honey, whatever helps you sleep at night.
While I?m sure some of the girls are more used to riding a pole than climbing one, they seem to pull through with the challenges and miraculously, the blue team, consisting of Sophie, Chantelle and Laura score the rest of the afternoon with Brad.
They head off to the beautiful Sooke Harbour House and immediately dissolve into schoolgirl screams as apparent country star Dean Brody is crooning about finding love in a hayfield or something like that. Am I the only one that hasn?t quite hit that channel on my satellite radio? Perhaps if I ventured beyond Hits1 and Playboy Radio (don?t judge me, I love Tiffany Granath) once in a while I?d know who he is?
Before you know it, there?s two steppin? and partners swingin? every which way to Dean Brody?s tribute to ?Canadian Girls? and it gives Chantelle the boost she needs to reveal to Brad that no pucks have scored in her net thus far. Brad handles her virgin confession like a true gentleman, actually finding it adorable and Chantelle practically dissolves into a state of blissful ecstasy from his reaction. Awww?..
Finally, we?re back at the mansion, Whitney is sporting the same white and navy cropped blazer she?s been wearing every day and the cocktail party prep ensues. As the evening begins, Tyler breaks the news that Brad (in a weird voiceover editing snaffoo) will be sending home not two, but four of the girls.
Within moments, roses are extended to Chantelle (which is apparently hilarious), Gabrielle, Brittany, Ana, Bianka, Laura B, Kara and Whitney and we bid farewell to Sophie, Michelle, Tia and Nicole (poor girl left in such a hurry I think she forgot her skirt!)
Apparently four more get cut next week ? damn this kid means business! My call is that Bianka and Kara are the final two, with a disgruntled Whitney coming in a close third.? Anyone else out there wanna place a bet?
Till next week ? and if you?re lonely in the meantime you can always visit (and like!)?me on facebook!
One of the more eye-opening demos at Convergence 2012 in Houston a few months back was the use of Microsoft Kinect with?Dynamics GP. While Kinect is more associated with consumer electronics, Microsoft has been signaling that this sophisticated gesture-reading hardware and software has serious business applications.
In case you?ve been completely focused on business technology, Kinect is a peripheral for Microsoft Xbox gaming that bathes a room in infra-red beams and reads the reflections?ask your kids to see the applications. In recent years, developers have been tweaking the Kinect APIs so that it can detect gesturing for presentations. In other words, raising or lowering your hand triggers a scrolling action,?and a wave causes the screen to pan in or out.
The response to this Dynamics-Kinect app at Convergence was so strong that afterwards Microsoft released a YouTube?video?showing a prototype based around?Business Analyzer.
No one is suggesting there?ll be Kinects on everyone?s desk in your nonprofits Accounting or Finance department ? though the cost is under $200 ? it?s clear that Microsoft sees an opportunity for its disruptive gesturing and speech recognition technology in boardrooms or for executive level presentations.
Business Analyzer?is well suited for non-technical executives since no knowledge of SQL is required to set up the reports. The Microsoft demo video gives a flavor of this completely intuitive approach to conducting presentations. You see how easy it is to walk a group through a series of Business Analyzer bar charts, graphs, and reports without awkward trips back to a laptop or grappling with the remote for the projector, ?making your nonprofit employees lives a lot simpler.
And there?s more.? As we?ve talked about before, Business Analyzer hooks up with?Microsoft Lync, the real-time collaboration tool for both IM and voice connections.
In the Microsoft prototype app, Lync, Dynamics GP Business Analyzer, and Kinect are all coupled together. It gives a strong indication of how Microsoft views business meetings being conducted in the near future.
Impressive stuff.
