The Keystone XL Pipeline and its politics, explained:
"Why is it so politically controversial?

There are two reasons Keystone has become a political lightning rod. The most important factor is what development of the oil sands—or tar sands—as they’re called by opponents—means for global warming. Extracting bitumen—a mix of oil, sand and clay — from the region is more akin to mining than conventional oil drilling, and the final product is 15 percent higher in greenhouse gas emissions than other forms of oil.

NASA climate scientist James E. Hansen, who just retired from his federal job so he could become a full-time climate activist, said if all the oil was extracted from the oil sands it would be “game over” when it came to the effort to stabilize the climate."

Update: Later this Week -- Leonid Promises Fireballs Tuesday Morning:: 3 AM CST ::

Leonid meteors shower 2009 from Think Pictures on Vimeo.
This years' Leonids came a couple days early, and not only did it put on an excellent show this year, I captured a couple of those really high altitude smoke trails left by the larger meteor streaks. I've only seen this one other time and that was by the naked eye during the Leonid meteor shower event in 2004. Seeing it timelapsed really offers a unique look at the dissipation of the smoke trail that follows the streak.

You may have to step through it to see during the main event, but I've showcased both of them at the end of the video.

Every 33 years the Tempel-Tuttle Comet visits the inner solar system filling Earth's skies with a shower of meteors. Debris from this particular comet are called Leonids because they appear to originate in the part of the sky where the Leo constellation is located. Though this year's Leonid Meteor Shower took place last week, the meteors that people observed were actually emitted by the comet in the years 1466 and 1533. Most of the meteoric activity was predicted to occur over Asia, but it seems that the most stunning amateur video came from other parts of the world, including the US. Some of it looks like it came straight out of a big budget sci-fi thriller. [SOURCE]

This [next]video was captured on November 21st by an office building's security camera in Midrand, South Africa. It takes a few seconds but boy is it worth it.

Footage from the security camera of the Mustek building in Midrand of the meteor shower that took place on 21 Nov 2009.



Footage from Leonid Meteor Shower November 17th, 2009

"When to watch:
Earth will pass through one of the denser debris streams at around 4 a.m. ET (1 a.m. PT) Tuesday. If you have only an hour or less to watch, center it around this time. Leo will be high in the sky for East Coast skywatchers, putting more meteors into view. In the West, Leo will be low in the eastern sky at this time, so fewer shooting stars will be above the horizon, and therefore Western skywatchers should also try to stick it out until daybreak."

It’s prime time for colorful meteor shower
Annual Leonid display should be good in North America, even better in Asia
[Excerpt]" ... This year the moon is near its new phase, and thus it won't be a factor that detracts from the show. For anyone in the Northern Hemisphere with dark skies, away from urban and suburban lighting, the meteor shower should be worth getting up early to see ... "
By Robert Roy Britt, Editorial director

"We're predicting 20 to 30 meteors per hour over the Americas, and as many as 200 to 300 per hour over Asia," said Bill Cooke of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office. Other astronomers who work in the nascent field of meteor shower prediction have put out similar forecasts.

"Urban dwellers and suburbanites will see far fewer, as the fainter meteors will be drowned out by local lights.

"Behind the Leonids
"The Leonids are created by Comet Tempel-Tuttle, which passes through the inner solar system every 33 years on its orbit around the sun. Each time by, it leaves a new river of debris, consisting mostly of bits of ice and rock no bigger than a sand grain, but including a few the size of a pea or marble."

What Would an RFID look like in 1964?

Physics Phantoms

If there were such a thing in 1964; what size would the device have been, what would have powered it, and how would it have sent out its radio frequency?

1964: [SOURCE] The complete station. (L-R) Hammarlund SP-600 receiver, Racal RA-17 receiver with RA-63 SSB adapter and the TMC model SBT-1K transmitter. Above the Racal adapter is a model TFS-3 Frequency Shift Converter with a tone demodulator, a device necessary to drive a printer. The TFS-3 was designed for the reception of Double and Single Frequency Shift signals.

At the very right is the Technical Material Corp XFK107 Frequency Shift Keyer. To the right of the keyer (and out of sight) was a teleprinter. This configuration was deemed as the emergency backup for Alert's main HF and LF comms links thus justifying the expenditure of public funds for amateur radio. (Photo via Jim Troyanek)


You see, What we needed in 1964 was a Strategy
Physics Team [SOURCE]
This team has set sights on exploring a variety of novel phenomena caused by the strong electron correlations, such as exotic superconductivity and anomalous magnetotransport, aiming also at their application to functional devices. We make full use of our experimental facilities to investigate the quantum critical phenomena and the chemistry of the field-effect doping. We have elaborated a strategy as follow:

1) The 'quantum critical phase' is to be explored by scrutinizing electronic properties under high pressure.

So we need to contrive a special setup, implementing a physical-property measurement under extreme conditions, i.e., an unprecedented system satisfying both the quite high pressure and low temperature at the same time. The measurements are to be performed for a variety of high-quality single crystals synthesized at the crystal-growth lab in our research center.

2) Required is the fabrication of a metal-insulator-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MISFET) structure at the interface between a gate dielectric thin film and a substrate of the strongly correlated electron systems (either a single crystal or an epitaxially grown thin film).

Then, we should underpin the precise as well as continuous carrier-density control by the field effect near the quantum critical point of, e.g., the insulator-metal transitions (Mott transitions) in order to pave the road toward the device physics of strongly correlated semiconductors.
