Astral Light “The good news: Immortality isn’t just the stuff of science fiction anymore. The bad news: Living forever isn’t going to be cheap. The alternative, obviously, is the digital storage of an individual’s brain, complete with a soul and/or personality. That “brain” can be downloaded into a robotic body, exist simply in a network as a program (a la The Matrix), or maybe even implanted into new, blank biological body … although there’s no conceivable technology — even by unforeseen future know-how — that could upload a digitally stored brain into an existing mesh of neurons. As such, that means cybernetic bodies or simple digital entities are the most likely solutions to immortality. Remember, your digital brain will be smart enough to know it’s just a vast network of computer programming, and will also know that our true nature is one intended to be in a physical body. The technology may “work”, but we were never intended to live forever.” investorplace.com/2014/07/life-expectency-live-nots/#.U79YtfldV8F — with Donald Marshall.

Astral Light “This will give humans the ability to upload information and intelligence directly into the mind. We’ll be able to learn new things in the blink of an eye and engage with one another like never before. In fact, Kurzweil believes that since we’ll be able to upload life experiences (i.e., feelings, senses, emotions, etc.), the nanotechnology of the future will be so powerful, it will take humans on virtual reality tours through the subconsciousness of other humans. Itskov, along with over 100 scientists, wants to transplant human consciousness (personality and all) into the head of a robotic body, or an “avatar” – hence his company’s name: Immortal Avatar. They’ve discovered where memories are stored inside the brains of mice – and discovered how to store those moments on a microchip. So if Immortal Avatar’s “personality transplant” doesn’t bring back the full “you,” there’s a memory microchip to fall back on. The idea that our consciousness can be preserved and transplanted after we die is – depending on how you look at – either extraordinary and compelling, or sacrilegious and scary. But doing so would at least end the pain of losing our loved ones.” www.wallstreetdaily.com/2014/07/08/transcendence-immortality-2045-initiative/ — with Donald Marshall.

Phil Chuppa shared photo. neuro-scientists are sick people. The hypothalamus is a small structure deep in the brain that, among other functions, coördinates sensory inputs—the appearance of a rival, for example—with instinctual behavioral responses. Back in the 1920s, Walter Hess of the University of Zurich (who would win a Nobel in 1949) had shown that if you stuck an electrode into the brain of a cat and electrically stimulated certain regions of the hypothalamus, you could turn a purring feline into a furry blur of aggression. Several interesting hypotheses tried to explain how and why that happened, but there was no way to test them. Like a lot of fundamental questions in brain science, the mystery of aggression didn’t go away over the past century—it just hit the usual empirical roadblocks. We had good questions but no technology to get at the answers.

Phil Chuppa shared a link www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-google-glass-mindrdr-20140711-story.htmlForget voice commands and touch gestures: A London firm has developed a way for Google Glass users to control their devices just by thinking.. This Place, an agency that specializes in creating user interfaces and experiences for programs used in the medical industry, developed a software called MindRDR that allows Google Glass to connect with the Neurosky MindWave Mobile EEG biosensor, a head-mounted device that can detect a person's brain waves. EEG stands for electroencephalography, which is the measurement and recording of electrical activity in the brain. EEG biosensors have been around for decades, but until recently they were very expensive. Neurosky is a Silicon Valley company that sells EEG biosensors, some for as little as $79.99 from Amazon.com. The system works by pairing the EEG biosensor with Google's $1,500 Glass device using Bluetooth. Once the connection has been made, the user fires up MindRDR, which takes what the EEG biosensor detects and converts it into commands that Glass can process. l Related Technology NowGoogle picks first partners to convince businesses to use GlassSee all relatedí After turning on the app, users will see a camera interface on the screen of their Google Glass. They can then pick a subject, aim their head in its direction, and concentrate on it while Glass displays a meter showing the level of their brain waves. The more intently a user focuses, the higher the meter climbs until it reaches the top, triggering Glass' camera. By repeating the process, users can direct MindRDR to upload the photo to one of their social networks. The product assumes Glassholes have enough brain power to activate it, an idea still not proven by anyone. Google glass will be the cause of more public fist fights, especially in bars and clubs, than cheap tequila. For now MindRDR can only be used to snap pictures, but This Place Chief Executive Dusan Hamlin said he hoped the agency would continue developing the software so that it could eventually help users overcome mobility limitations. Specifically, Hamlin said he would like MindRDR to help people who suffer from locked-in syndrome, in which a patient has lost motor control but remains aware and alert, as well as quadriplegia London firm creates mind-controlled commands for Google Glass www.latimes.comForget voice commands and touch gestures: A London firm has developed a way for Google Glass users to control their devices...

The Chirok could be equipped with high precision weapons, such as small-size guided missiles. Unlike most existing UAVs, the Chirok has enough inner space to fit the weapons internally, so that under-wing missiles won’t interfere with aerodynamics and landing. Because the aircraft is of moderate size and made of composites, it also has excellent stealth characteristics. It is expected that at Moscow-hosted MAKS-2015 air show UAV Chirok will be presented as an operable prototype. Production of the aircraft could be started as early as 2016.

Phil Chuppa this made me think of the implanted drug delivery system in clones............. e) Microfluidics for drug delivery Microfluidics enable advanced drug delivery technologies such as triggered release, timed release and targeted delivery. Some applications include transdermal drug delivery (e.g., microneedle arrays and needle-less jet-based system), implantable drug delivery systems (e.g., drug-eluting stents and insulin pump), and drug delivery vehicles (e.g., micro- and nano- particles). In the US, Diabetes mellitus has a mortality of 180,000 per year. It can be managed through proper diet and exercise, glucose-lowering oral medications and/or insulin therapy. One of the most notable insulin delivery systems for diabetes therapy, JewelPUMPTM, is shown in Figure 10. This system was developed by Debiotech in collaboration with STMicroelectronics. The MEMS nanopumpTM mounted on a disposable skin patch provides continuous insulin through jet-based infusion delivery. The whole system weighs only 25 grams and holds up to 500 units of insulin and can be used for a 7 day period without any need for refill or replacement. The JewelPUMPTM is directly programmed from a large display remote controller. It can be attached to the body using a disposable skin patch and can be detached when necessary, thereby offering more freedom to the patient. electroiq.com/blog/2013/10/mems-devices-for-biomedical-applications/ MEMS devices for biomedical applications Phil Chuppa Figure 10b.

Phil Chuppa shared a link www.truthdeficit.com/face-sculptures-made-from-your-dna/In 1993, Kary Mullis won a Nobel Prize for discovering PCR, and several widespread efforts, including the Human Genome Project, have used the science to compile their databases.”It really gets you when you realize someone can pick up a hair on the street and know more about you than a doctor can, conceivably,” said Ellen Jorgensen, the director of Genspace. There are limitations. DNA, Ms. Dewey-Hagborg concedes, can’t tell her specifically how prominent someone’s chin might be or how large the nose. And she may never know, as there is seemingly no way to track down people and match them to material they don’t even know they left behind. She used the technique to create a self-portrait, which is quite similar to her face. And she recognizes that some critics believe the project is an intrusion of privacy. One scientist and one gallery turned down her proposal, she said, fearing it would cause fright among people. At the Clocktower Gallery, Director David Weinstein said people “have this sort of double take. They start to ask a lot of questions, like, ‘How much can she really know about me from my cigarette butt?’ Then, they’re questioning everything.” Ms. Dewey-Hagborg’s boyfriend refuses to have his DNA analyzed, despite her persistent requests. “The biggest problem people have is that it’s such incredibly personal information,” she said. “Now we’re used to things like our faces surveyed by cameras. But this is so intimate, and this is a surveillance of things we might not know about our self.” FACE SCULPTURES MADE FROM YOUR DNA www.truthdeficit.comThey are the faces of real people, portrait-like sculptures etched from an almost powdery substance.

Phil Chuppa shared a link. mind-computer.com/2012/12/20/remote-neural-monitoring-a-technology-used-for-controlling-the-human-brain/23 July thought police.................................... RNM works remotely to control the brain in order to read and detect any criminal thought taking place inside the mind of a possible perpetrator. Research studies have shown that the human brain thinks at a rate of about 5000 bits per second and does not have the capacity to compete with supercomputers performing via satellites, implants and biotelemetry. The human brain has a distinctive set of bioelectric resonance system. For the RNM system, supercomputers are being used and, thus, with its help, supercomputers can send messages through an implanted person’s nervous system in order to influence their performance in a desired way. RNM has been developed after about 50 years of neuro-electromagnetic involuntary human experimentations. According to many scientists, within a few years it is expected that DNA microchips will be implanted in the human brain which would make it inherently controllable. With RNM, it will be possible to read and control a person’s emotional thought processes along with the subconscious and dreams. At present, around the world, supercomputers are monitoring millions of people simultaneously with the speed of 20 billion bits per second especially in countries like USA, Japan, Israel and many European countries. RNM has a set of certain programs functioning at different levels, like the signals intelligence system which uses electromagnetic frequencies (EMF), to stimulate the brain for RNM and the electronic brain link (EBL). The EMF Brain Stimulation system has been designed as radiation intelligence which means receiving information from inadvertently originated electromagnetic waves in the environment. However, it is not related to radioactivity or nuclear detonation. The recording machines in the signals intelligence system have electronic equipment that investigate electrical activity in humans from a distance. This computer-generated brain mapping can constantly monitor all electrical activities in the brain. The recording aid system decodes individual brain maps for security purposes.

Phil Chuppa shared a link. 23 July www.popsci.com/technology/article/2010-09/darpa-wants-mind-control-keep-soldiers-sharp-smart-and-safeDARPA has been trying to crawl inside the minds of soldiers for a while now, but a new ultrasound technology could let them get deeper inside than ever. Working under a DARPA grant, a researcher at Arizona State is developing transcranial pulsed ultrasound technology that could be implanted in troops' battle helmets, allowing soldiers to manipulate brain functions to boost alertness, relieve stress, or even reduce the effects of traumatic brain injury. Manipulating the brain to enhance warfighting capabilities and maintain mental acuity on the battlefield has long been a topic of interest for DARPA and various military research labs, but the technology to do so remains limited. Deep brain stimulation (DBS), for instance, requires surgically implanted electrodes to stimulate neural tissues, while less-invasive methods like transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) possess limited reach and low spatial resolution. But Dr. William J. Tyler, an assistant professor of life sciences at ASU, writes on the DoD's "Armed With Science" blog: "To overcome the above limitations, my laboratory has engineered a novel technology which implements transcranial pulsed ultrasound to remotely and directly stimulate brain circuits without requiring surgery. Further, we have shown this ultrasonic neuromodulation approach confers a spatial resolution approximately five times greater than TMS and can exert its effects upon subcortical brain circuits deep within the brain." Tyler's technology, packaged in a warfighter's helmet, would allow soldiers to flip a switch to stimulate different regions of their brains, helping them relieve battle stress when it's time to get some rest, or to boost alertness during long periods without sleep. Grunts could even relieve pain from injuries or wounds without resorting to pharmaceutical drugs. More importantly, in the periods after brain trauma ultrasound technology could reduce swelling and metabolic damage that is often the root cause of lasting brain damage.

There’s no need for a propellant of any kind like rocket fuel. When filled with resonating microwaves, the conical chamber of the thruster experiences a net thrust toward the wide end. These microwaves can be generated using electricity, which can be provided by solar energy. In theory, this means that the thruster can work forever, or at least until its hardware fails.
