ITHACA, N.Y., July 3 (UPI) -- U.S. researchers say they've developed a method to self-assemble metals into complex configurations using nanotechnology and polymers.

Directed self-assembly of ordered structures as a simple nanotechnology tool

(Nanowerk Spotlight) The use of spontaneous self-assembly as a lithography- and external field-free means to construct well-ordered, often intriguing structures has received much attention for its ease of organizing materials on the nanoscale into ordered structures and producing complex, large-scale structures with small feature sizes. These self-organized structures promise new opportunities for developing miniaturized optical, electronic, optoelectronic, and magnetic devices.

Liquid Metal CPU Heatsink Beats Water Cooling

unassimilatible writes "Bios Magazine is reporting that the world's first commercially available liquid-metal based CPU cooler is about to ship. Danamics, a Danish company, claims that its LM-10 outperforms standard air-cooled heatsinks and most watercooled systems with a mere 1W power draw. 'The liquid metal is a key component in Danamics cooling systems. Liquid metal has two major advantages when cooling high power density heat sources: Firstly it has superior thermo physical properties that decrease temperature — and temperature non-uniformity — on die and across chips. Secondly, the electrical properties of the liquid metal enables efficient, reliable and ultra compact electromagnetic pumping without the use of moving parts, shafts, seals, etc.

Metal Gear Solid 4 Thrown In For Free

Kotaku writes: "Previously, we brought word that Metal Gear Solid 4 appeared to be hitting the bargain bin - a mere month and a half after the game was released. (A shame, because it is a great game, even if it hasn't sold close to million copies in Japan!) Now it seems the Metal Gear Solid 4 40GB PS3 bundle's price is getting slashed at Akihabara retailer Gamers. (No clue about the gajillion other shops in Japan!) The price has been lowered from ¥49,800 (US$454) to ¥39,800 ($363) for a store sale - meaning that it's going for about what regular 40GB PS3s fetch without the game. That's right, Metal Gear Solid 4 for free.

Directed self-assembly of polymers and nanotubes into air-suspended bridges

Polymers dissolved in volatile solvents can be directed to self-assemble into suspended nanofiber bridges through surface tension driven capillary thinning. This points towards a single step approach to forming suspended 3D structures in a considerably more simple way than by standard microfabrication processes. Fibers form when the polymer liquid is brushed by hand over a corrugated surface, as shown in the cartoon. To the right of the cartoon is a portion of an array and a closeup of polymer microfibers. The large mounds of polymer, compared to the fiber diameter, show how dramatically the fibers have thinned through the capillary forces. Carbon nanotubes can also be suspended, by dispersing them in the liquid polymer, forming fibers, and then thermally decomposing the polymer.

Elizabeth, What about Amazon using book sales as its loss leader? You know, where a ...

IN RESPONSE TO THE BOOKLOCKER / AMAZON ANTITRUST CASE: What self-publishing services like BookLocker need to come to terms with ... is that Amazon is a business and like any business ... must make a profit. Amazon has been accepting an influx of self-published books that don''t offer any profit. Amazon''s BookSurge (for the record) also participates in this influx ... the only difference being that BookSurge makes a profit for Amazon. Many self-publishing services offer an extremely minimal wholesale discount that (after the wholesale distribution source like Ingram takes its cut) leaves the reseller (like Amazon) with little to zero profit margin. Why would any retailer carry stock that they cannot make a profit on? BookLocker is among those self-publishing services that do not provide a reasonable wholesale discount on its books.

Self-Growing Material Opens Chip, Storage Advances

coondoggie brings us this NetworkWorld article, which begins: "In the ever-growing desire to produce smaller, less costly, yet more powerful and faster computers and storage devices, researchers today said they are looking at a way to use self-growing fabrics that will let manufacturers build nano-sized high resolution semiconductors and arrays to answer that craving. Researchers at the Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center (NSEC) at the University of Wisconsin — Madison have come up with a method that uses existing technology to combine the lithography techniques traditionally used to pattern microelectronics with novel self-assembling materials known as block copolymers, researchers said. When combined with a lithographically patterned surface, the block copolymers' long molecular chains spontaneously assemble into the designated a

Controlling copyright created in the workplace

Employers aiming to secure ownership of works created by contractors need a signed engagement agreement specifying the assignment of copyright. The Federal Magistrate Court's ruling in "Centrestage Management Pty Ltd v Riedle" highlights the default position that copyright in original works created by hired independent contractors is owned by that individual. Employers should note that several factors can influence whether a worker is deemed a contractor or an employee under Australian law

By Amplifying Cell Death Signals, Scientists Make Precancerous Cells Self-destruct

When a cell begins to multiply in a dangerously abnormal way, a series of death signals trigger it to self-destruct before it turns cancerous. Now, in research to appear in the August 15 issue of Genes & Development, Rockefeller University scientists have figured out a way in mice to amplify the signals that tell these precancerous cells to die. The trick: Inactivating a protein that normally helps cells to avoid self-destruction.

Frans Nambinga Admires his Home through Arts

Nambinga’s style has self in it… it says let us not con-demn the norm and form in art, but let us see it as a way forward. Somebody may argue that this artwork is too naïve and has no message and meaning. The question is, What does this piece of artwork mean to you? An art work might mean a period in which it was created and what it was created for. Artists today are affected by globalization, the content and context of the daily issues affecting their communities, such as culture, education and the economy.
