Author: I was googeling my name tonight ( as one should do to see how exposed is their identity).. I came across firefrogs acronyms page, where I’m credited for additions to the list. There may have been more but I now remember submitting CYAWBH.
Thanks for the Kudo’s I have more..

The Death of Adaptec
On June 9, Adaptec Inc. announced it’s changing its name to ADPT Corp. as part of the sale of its storage business including the Adaptec brand, RAID product line, a reseller customer base, board logistics capabilities and SSD solutions, to PMC-Sierra Inc.
It’s time to drop my ICQ Account due to “Russian Company Buys ICQ”
Russian Company Buys ICQ: “An anonymous reader writes ‘AOL has sold ICQ to Digital Sky Technologies (DST), Russia’s largest Internet company, for US$187.5 million. DST’s offer was apparently more attractive than those of Russia’s ProfMedia and China’s Tencent. ICQ, originally released in 1996 and bought by AOL in 1998 for US$407 million, was one of the world’s first major instant messaging systems. Although largely forgotten in English-speaking countries, it remains widely popular in Central Europe, Russia, and Israel. Moscow News has additional coverage of the deal.Read more of this story at Slashdot.

Hi all.
If you didn’t already know I’m working on a project with a few guys where we pay musical tribute to Ozzy and Black Sabbath. Well things are progressing, and we now have substance to share. check out our Facebook Page and let me know what you think. There are recordings in the blocks tabs, and on the wall.

$34 Million Later, PETA Saves Eight Animals?
$34 Million Later, PETA Saves Eight Animals?
“In 2009, PETA euthanized 2,301 dogs and cats — 97 percent of those brought in — and adopted only eight, according to Virginia state figures. And the rate of these killings has been increasing.”
That’s 2352 animals: 681 dogs, 1620 cats and 51 other companion animals.
New Plastic Conducts Heat Better Than Metals, But Only in One Direction
New Plastic Conducts Heat Better Than Metals, But Only in One Direction: “
Polymers are generally put to work as insulators, but a team of researchers at MIT has devised a way to turn polyethylene — the most commonly used polymer — into a conductor that transfers heat better than many pure metals. But the conversion of insulator to conductor is only half of the breakthrough; by coaxing all the polymer molecules into precise alignment, the researchers have created a polyethylene that conducts heat in only one direction. The plastic material remains an electrical insulator.
Getting a bunch of polymer molecules to fall in line is no easy task — left to their own devices, the molecules will settle into a chaotic arrangement that is resistant to heat transfer. But the MIT team found that by drawing polyethylene fibers slowly out of a solution they could get the molecules to line up facing the same way, creating a material that will let heat pass in one direction but not the other.
This kind of one-way conductor is ripe for myriad applications in devices where heat must be drawn away from a certain place, such as heat exchangers, computer processors or portable electronics. With a thermal conductivity 300 times greater than conventional polyethylene, the polymer is actually more conductive than about half of all pure metals, meaning it could potentially replace metal conductors in several common devices.
Of course, all that is dependent on scaling the process to create conductive polyethylene at market-feasible prices and quantities, something the team has not yet done. But should they find a way to produce the stuff in bulk, it could quickly jump from lab bench to commercial applications, providing a cheap alternative to certain metals used in heat exchange — metals that add cost and sometimes an environmental toll to common devices.
