Army Tests Add-On Body Armor

I was a little
surprised to learn that the standard issue G.I body armor isn't really
designed to stop the sort of attacks our soldiers are suffering in
modern-day battle. It makes sense, I suppose, since vests designed to
stop bullets doesn't do much to deflect "superheated ... tiny liquid
balls of metal that melt the skin, muscle and tendons right off."
Fortunately, Sandia National Labs and the Army are testing out new
body armor add-ons (sort of like aftermarket ground effects, minus the
neon lights) that are designed to protect exposed soldiers'
extremities against rocket-propelled grenades and roadside bombs.
DefenseTech has a full story on the armor peripherals, including a
lovely anecdote about a dead pig's leg encased in an armored gauntlet,
then placed two-and-a-half feet away from an exploding anti-tank
shell. Now that's good eatin'.

10/29/2003 01:15 AMThe Bath and Body Works site is worthless. I was trying to find out if
they had a shea butter lotion as a gift for my girlfriend Karen to
replace the stuff she's running out of. On the home page, my
navigation choices are "Home", "The Solution Center", whatever that
means, "New This Season", which is obviously wrong, "FAQ", "Locator",
and some sign-me-up-for-spam thing. All use tiny fonts done as
graphics, so they can't be resized. I want a "Products" link! How
about a "Our Stuff" link if that's not hip enough? It stays just as
bad. They have three columns. The middle column has a big picture and
a list of products under it. This layout implies you can look at
individual products, but you can't. There's no site map, so I get the
nagging feeling what I want is there, but I can't find it. My theory
is that the package has changed but the scent is the same, but I can't
know for sure. Eventually, through the random thrashing method, I find
a shea butter page, but it says nothing about what scent it has. If I
hate the scent, I won't want to keep smelling it. Finally, I gave up
and went to the store. Sure enough, the same stuff is now in that blue
bottle and it has the same scent....

Liquid Gold: The Ink Rush
Liquid Gold: The Ink Rush
07/26/2004 02:27 PMIt's no secret that printer ink goes for very high prices these days.
We've noted in the past a comparison between the price of ink
and
vintage champagne (with the ink being more expensive). The SF
Chronicle is taking a look at the same issue and noting that
an Olympic sized swimming pool filled with printer ink
would cost $5.9 billion (yes, with a "b"). Thus, it's no
wonder that lots of companies are looking for ways to crack into the
ink business, from selling cheaper ink cartridges to refilling old
ones. It seems there are even Kinkos' style stores opening up that
will refill your ink cartridges for you in a bright neon coated
environment. It appears that, for many, printer ink appears to be
liquid gold and lots of people are trying to get their share.

05/28/2004 06:33 PMIntense speculation about a secret BEA project code-named Sierra ended
last week when CEO Alfred Chuang used the company's eWorld forum to
give the initiative a real name: Liquid Computing. An amalgam of
current and future BEA technologies centering on Web services and SOA
(service-oriented architecture), Liquid Computing is basically BEA's
answer to IBM's On Demand initiative.
