Looks like the military is getting in to the nanotechnology business.
Ever wonder how nanotechnology could change the way explosions occur?
When I picture nanotech I imagine little tiny crawly robots, but in
this article they talk about manipulating the size and composition of
certain kinds of molecules to increase the number of atoms covering the
surface area. Read on…

Sphere: Related ContentSo I’ve done it. I used my company’s connections to HP to get a big
discount off of a new iPod. I called up “Joe” at our distributor and at
first he wanted to talk about how many I wanted and I had to confess it
was only one. So he hooked me up with a 20GB iPod+HP at a good price.
I
paid for it with my American Express card then transferred the money
from my savings account, to my checking account. THEN I went the Amex
web site and paid them for the iPod right away! hot diggity. I love a
good use for technology.
Now I have to look at accessories. I
think I will want one of the docking stations… but maybe not. I think
I’ll want something like their iTrip so I can get my tunes in the car.
What else? I’m not sure.

This article in the Boston Herald is about the snow storm. Buried deep
in the 16th paragraph is the fact that Melrose got 36″ of snow! I TOLD
YOU IT WAS A LOT OF SNOW! Now the National Weather Service is there to
back me up. Also the temperature only got up to TEN degrees. And in
fact it won’t get anywhere close to the freezing mark for at least a
week. The warmest we’re likely to see is 22 degrees!!
criminy!
Sphere: Related ContentI got lots of exercise yesterday with all the snow, but today was
looking like a pretty quiet indoorsy type of day. With so many people
being out and work being so quiet I figured I would squeeze in another
visit to the fitness center. So I did. It was exhausting but I think it
did me some good. I notice I’ve lost three pounds without doing very
much. In fact, last week I didn’t visit the fitness center at work or
at the Y. So I’m hoping this works out.
I’m taking a few minutes at my desk before getting some lunch because.
1. Despite a thorough shower I’m still sweating and need some more cool-down time
2. I’m frankly a little out of breath and need some more cool-down time
Its a beautiful, sunny, very cold day out today. In fact its begging to for me to be elsewhere.
