Lagrangian point - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I always suspected, but until now had never bothered to confirm. In my suspicions and uneducated state I had thought there were probably 3 points, but I’m glad to learn more and realise that in my blissful ignorance, I was wrong and there are 5 stationary (“L”) point solutions to the (circular restricted) 3-body problem.

I love the fact that in the Gundam anime series they have Sides, human made satellites that people live in, that mention they are exploiting the Lagrangian Points.  Its one of my favorite animes because of the high level of science involved in it.

Cisco made headlines today announcing a next generation router that will revolutionize the internet by increasing downloads to unheard of speeds.  The Cisco press release makes the following claims about the CRS-3 router:

It enables the entire printed collection of the Library of Congress to be downloaded in just over one second; every man, woman and child in China to make a video call, simultaneously; and every motion picture ever created to be streamed in less than four minutes.

Arduino Nano 3.0 with ATMEGA328 (NO-PIN)
I just bought one of these and it will be added to my new netbook in order to rotate the screen with the help of an accelerometer.  As soon as I design the faceplate and get it printed I will have a netbook tablet.

Kojiro humanoid goes musculoskeletal in a big way

We just found a new friend. Kojiro, a humanoid being built by the University of Tokyo’s JSK Robotics Laboratory, has a detailed musculoskeletal system built to mimic the human body. It works on a system of artificial bones, muscles and tendons to create a robot that is theoretically more light and agile than your regular bot, and which moves in a more organic fashion to our untrained eyes. The bot has motors which pull cables that simulate the method which muscles and tendons interact, and has about 100 tendon-muscle structures, giving it 60 degrees of freedom — more than an average rotary joint bot like Asimo (34 degrees, last time we checked). The robot shaves weight with its lighter, plastic materials and small brushless motors. The idea is to make a robot that’s more people friendly by not being substantially heavier or more rigid than a human it might come into contact with.

MotoCzysz Introduces Electric D1g1tal Dr1ve
Modern ICE sportbike design consists of an engine paired to a frame to create a load-bearing structure and power plant with the least amount of weight possible. Try to throw this design philosophy out the window when digesting what Michael Czysz has designed in the MotoCzysz Electric D1g1tal Dr1ve system (eDD or “suitcase”). The eDD is a platform to build your vision of an electric motorcycle. Add the swingarm of your choice and fabricate a structure to connect front suspension and rear shock to the MotoCzysz “suitcase”. But whatever you do, do not hang the eDD off a GSXR rolling chassis. Michael will personally come out, refund your 42,500 32,000 (after $10,000 sponsorship) and take his electric drive platform back to Oregon. Actually I’m sure he would be happy to have your money but you’d be missing the point.
Michael Czysz designed the eDD around electric technology, not internal combustion. Czysz is a rare combination of motorcycle racer, visionary and designer. His motorcycles don’t build on existing technology; they start from scratch with a “clean sheet” design. MotoCzysz has taken some hard falls in the last few years but that’s what happens when your nature is “go big.” Displacement rule changes in MotoGP kept the groundbreaking and promising C1 from competing and the electric e1pc 3 motored monster suffered motor melt down at the 2009 TTXGP. Both machines are motorcycles designed to go fast around a circuit and inspire enthusiasts with beauty and purposeful engineering.
