Printing Food

How in the world does this work??

"According to Quartz, '[Anjan Contractor's] Systems & Materials Research Corporation just got a six month, $125,000 grant from NASA tocreate a prototype of his universal food synthesizer. But Contractor, a mechanical engineer with a background in 3-D printing, envisions a much more mundane — and ultimately more important — use for the technology. He sees a day when every kitchen has a 3-D printer, and the earth's 12 billion people feed themselves customized, nutritionally-appropriate meals synthesized one layer at a time, from cartridges of powder and oils they buy at the corner grocery store. Contractor's vision would mean the end of food waste, because the powder his system will use is shelf-stable for up to 30 years, so that each cartridge, whether it contains sugars, complex carbohydrates, protein or some other basic building block, would be fully exhausted before being returned to the store.' No word yet on whether anyone other than the guy trying to sell the technology thinks it'll make palatable food."

So now that my son is all set up out there with his own sound proof studio and all the Pro Tools he could want with his band. He now needs to attract people to pay him to use the sound studio. I keep remembering seeing the Buddy HOlly story movie that they had a cricket in the studio they could not find. It provided several things in the movie and eventually the name of the band.

I do miss Buddy Holly, Ricky Valance, and the Big Bopper since they went down on the day the music died. I wonder how music would have changed.

Can yahoo make it??

My thought it no.

 "Fresh off purchasing Tumblr for $1.1 billion, Yahoo has moved to the next stage of what's becoming a company-wide reboot: fixing Flickr, the photo-sharing service that it acquired in 2005 and subsequently allowed to languish. Yahoo boosted Flickr accounts' individual storage capacity to one free terabyte, revamped the Website's overall look, and launched a new Flickr app for Google Android, among other tweaks. Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer clearly wants her company to fight toe-to-toe on features with Google and Facebook, but she faces a long road ahead of her: not only does she need to streamline Yahoo's cumbersome corporate structure and product portfolio into something that resembles fighting shape, but she needs to reverse the general perception that Yahoo is teetering on the edge of history's trash-bin, with an aging customer base and unexciting features. The question is, could anyone actually pull it off? Is Yahoo capable of an Apple-style turnaround, or are its current actions merely delaying the inevitable?"

Avoid Migraine.

Well not only has my son taken over the Mother in law house on my property he is now using it for his band and has outfitted it with all the best tools likeDERP DERP DERP HERP and has managed to mostly sound proof it. He now has the only sound proof recording studio in town and now seems to be making some money. Granted it is not the best recording studio but it is the only one in town. The good news is that he and his band can not practice out there without giving me a migraine. Have a good day.

What else would you expect

What else would you expect from the government. "CNN anchors Erin Burnett and Carol Costello have interviewed Former FBI Counterterrorisim specialist Tim Clemente. In the interviews he asserts that all digital communications are recorded and stored. Clemente: 'No, welcome to America. All of that stuff is being captured as we speak whether we know it or like it or not.' 'All of that stuff' — meaning every telephone conversation Americans have with one another on U.S. soil, with or without a search warrant — 'is being captured as we speak.' 'No digital communication is secure,' by which he means not that any communication is susceptible to government interception as it happens (although that is true), but far beyond that: all digital communications — meaning telephone calls, emails, online chats and the like — are automatically recorded and stored and accessible to the government after the fact. To describe that is to define what a ubiquitous, limitless Surveillance State is."

Warm?

Well It is not time to pull the DERP off and time to hit the lakes. The real problem is the weather has been so cold lately that I am afraid I might hit an iceberg on the lake. Okay it is not that cold . . . but it really seems it. Well I am ready for the season to start now if mom nature would be so kind to warm up a little, or spring, as Al Gore calls it: "absolute proof of global warming" Have a great day
