Table Leg :go read th write-up first. buhari refused to mediate. or even talk against bh. promised blood if he lost the election and to make nigeria ungovernable etc. what concrete evidence again do u need?" |
coogar: this is a reckless accusation!even after Okupe mentioned all Buhari's blood promises? did u even read the essay at all? |
The topic is as interesting as the title. After decades of effort, Scientists have devised a way to generate electricity from brain. Researchers from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have designed an implantable fuel cell that can generate electricity from a fluid around the brain (cerebrospinal fluid). The result of the experiment was a success since it produced a few hundred microwatts of power from glucose within the cerebrospinal fluid. No adverse physiological effects have been reported so far. This small amount of generated power is of course not enough to run a small fan or any small appliance. But the inventors are not thinking of utilizing this energy to power the appliances. Instead, scientists have planned to make use of this energy in bio-medical field. The amount of electricity produced is enough to power the latest, futuristic and highly efficient brain implants that can help the paralyzed patients to move their limbs. According to the team leader and computer scientist Rahul Sarpeshkar, the new fuel cells can be a great remedy for paralysis or blindness. Currently, most brain implants are powered through inductive power transfer. The power is transferred either wirelessly or by single use batteries. The major disadvantage of such single use batteries is that they have to be replaced surgically after several years. In comparison, the new fuel cell is made up of platinum (a metal that has good track record of being safe in human body). Moreover, according to Rahul Sarpeshkar the new fuel cell can work for decades with no need of replacement. These new cells will first be tested on humans and animals. This new fuel cell functions by oxidizing glucose from cerebrospinal fluid at the surface of an activated platinum anode and then converting oxygen to water at the surface of a network of single walled carbon nanotubes embedded in the cathode end of the cell. The fuel cell also utilizes an oxygen gradient to prevent oxygen from reaching the anode and thus possibly creating electro-chemical short circuits. Researchers have also conducted tests to ensure the rate at which cerebrospinal fluid glucose is replenished. The results are satisfactory which means that the method of generating electricity is safe and has no adverse effects. Furthermore, the fuel cell’s oxygen consumption was also checked to make sure that it wouldn’t destabilize oxygen levels in brain. Though it is still in prototype phase, it sounds promising and efficient. Indeed it would be a great invention to help paralyzed people to live and enjoy life in a better way. Below is a video of how it can be utilized.

mededot: Mr moderatorr, can I see a few of the projects you have worked on?contact me and i'll inbox you the list, sir. |
utimatedes: Where do you base? Are you in Lagos?no boss, but very close. |
GraphicsPlus: There is no big in pulling Mark Zukerberg to Nigeria. Moreover, the host may hav started planning this since past two years. I dont think it is this year that he sealed the arrangement for Mark's coming. Again, I know security will be very tight at the hotel where Mark will be lodged and the conference centre also.mark doesnt attend non facebook events. its easier to bring gates and bird(man) than a mac |
lol u send an invitation to someone then announce that he is coming, even before u get a reply. lol @ nigerians com |

Was running on Smf. |
Azonto, and will let u know why latter |

Actor Wesley Snipes released from prison https://i2.cdn.turner.com/cnn/dam/assets/130405160522-wesely-snipes-2010-story-top.jpg Actor Wesley Snipes has been released from a federal prison where he was serving a three-year sentence after being convicted on tax charges in February 2010. The release to a supervised residential location in New York occurred Tuesday, the Federal Bureau of Prisons told CNN. Snipes, 50, who starred in the "Blade" action movies and "White Men Can't Jump," had been serving time at a federal prison in Pennsylvania. A jury convicted him of willfully failing to file tax returns for 1999, 2000 and 2001. Snipes was acquitted of felony tax fraud and conspiracy charges. In June 2011, the U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear an appeal of his sentence, which he had argued was too harsh for a misdemeanor conviction. SOURCE: http://dwitch.com/

How did one small decision you made change your life for good? After a Jazz concert where I went to with two girls in the neighboring student hostel, I drove back home with one of them. As we both were hungry and the night was young, I invited her to eat late dinner at my place. We cooked, ate, started talking (the only furniture I had was my bed - happy coincidence) and at a certain point she yawned and asked me to tell her a story. I decided to pluck up all courage I had and told the story of a girl which incidently resembled her bio. The story ended where the girl in the story went home with a nice guy to have dinner, talked and then the guy kissed her.SOURCE WITH MANY MORE ANSWERS: http://dwitch.com/queries/view/1424 |

bad_ass_nigga: and u think without nuclear strike they would av silenced Japan lyk that. what tells u that NK r also not armed with d nukes. even if they dnt av nuke that can reach America soil ...I pity what will be become of South Korea beautiful city which is only abt some kilometers away form NKSouth Korea doesn't have any nukes. Its Iran that's on the way to getting one. The US used nuclear weapons in 1945. Iran is building one in 2013. Do the math : 2013 - 1945; Thats how far US is ahead of all of them. The one used in Hiroshima, deleted the entire city. Then another one in nagasaki it was ctrl+alt+delete too! So imagine the one the US will use on North Korea in 2013! The asian continent will lose North Korea.ha haa ha aaa. |
Tusky44: What kind of Agegunle analysis is this?Bad belle, go do your own. |
the_ripper2: That FAT fccuk at Pyongyang would eventually bow to a Nigger.They should ask Japan whats up, after they bombed Pearl Harbour |

Mobsync: :/ really?your last statement shows u have never even watched war in a movie. A foot soldier is more potent than a tank!?! |
