Omnipresence
This is certainly not a topic for sci.physics..But I have met many like minded people here. Is it normal to hate to the omnipresence of Google ? Or rather their drift to be omnipresent. ... 3 Jul 2010 17:54

Rare Example of Instrumented Bldg Damaged During During An Earthquake
http://www.usc.edu/dept/civil_eng/Earthquake_eng/Selected_Publ/PDF/ICS_Paper_II.pdf Two interesting questions: Why aren't they instrumenting bldgs today with relatively cheap MEM accelerometers? Who decided to spend the equivalent of 200K on force balance accelerometers and other electronics 40 years ago for... 22 Jun 2010 23:45

We can't even imagine the trials that the next generation of parents will be forced to cope with once this technology from Pandora's Box, is released into the world of home entertainment.

An Introductory Primer on Hydraulics?
I'm looking some something like a dummies book or even less that deals with some of the simpler (maybe) concepts of hydraulics. Maybe something like hydraulics for plumbers or gardeners. Maybe something that answers questions like if water is pumped out of a 2" pipe, which then splits into two pipes, one is 1" ... 21 Jun 2010 22:30

Closed universe cosmology
The discovery of the expansion of the universe leads to an hypersphere cosmology. Einstein called it a closed universe finite yet unbounded curving in the 4th dimension. Albert Einstein is the father of the hypersphere cosmology. His closed universe was its beginning. It started as a Friedman space. Mitch Rae... 22 Jun 2010 14:57

Binding Problem - any proposed solution from you guys?
Here's the Binding Problem that some of you physics oriented folks may want to tackle (it's easier than the Theory of Everything). The Binding Problem is in these terms. There are separate modules in the brain for shape, color, movement, etc. and there is no common site where the outputs of all of these parallel mo... 21 Jun 2010 20:18

Expansion of the universe
Assuming that the Universe is compact and expanding at a constant rate in all directions, and using a model of the Universe that seems reasonable: 1) Can we measure the minimum speed v at which a particle must move (assuming it is moving in the same direction in a curved Universe), in order to come back indefini... 22 Jun 2010 21:34

The REAL expansion of the Universe
Here lie's either the full factor or most important factor affecting Universe's expansion. Only virtual photons create mass. Only virtual photons create charge. Since an isolated charge remains mostly constant with time, CONCLUSION: Since the charge doesn't dissipate with time, virtual photons are actually... 22 Jun 2010 00:42
