Embarking on a new project (TEST)
New project is to arrange few pieces from 'Gundam SEED OST' to 1 or 2 piano versions. Pieces, that specially fell into my ear. I have had two in mind. But there was one additional piece in the series that didn't appear on any of the OST's, that i posses. I loved it and really wanted to get it. Yesterday i did. And today, as i sat at the computer doing nothing, i incidentally started arranging the piece. I started from testing the tempo and note layout. The results from this test are here: www.if.pw.edu.pl/~kywalker/TachiagareOkoriYoTEST3.mp3. This is still a raw version - actually and ending of the 2-minute long piece - it has no chords or any numerous intonations. It took me about 20 minutes to do this, so i am pretty excited about being able to arrange whole piece in a short time. I am posting this just in case i forget about it in the midst of writing MSc thesis. Anyway tell me Your suggestions. Preferably before i finish it (if at all). PS: copy the URL and paste it in a browser window to download the file if You are not able to do it straight from the beard.

New fun military tech!
Problem #1: EMP from electric arc vs. electronic circuts. Problem #2: Directivity of 'vaporization' of the said round. Vaporize... sure, but twhat about the energy released. That thing packs one hell of a punch. Problem #3 (technical): charging and re-charging.

Car Accident
Don't think i don't know that. But that is irrelevant in the face of death, is it not?

Car Accident
You know me. I am a samurai Death for me is part of the cycle, which needs to go on. No life is eternal, there is no use denying it to me. So, knowing life will end at some point, knowing this inevitability, one must be prepared, one must not fear. "Fear leads to anger... and so forth" Such experiences are gruesome and heartbreaking only when one fears death. Only when one thinks one is different.

Nie, prowadzę seminarium :/

Musashi tribute
It's true. Not only that, but he has written "Dokugyodo" meaning "Lonely Way". Anyway, since tomorrow i am stage-performing, i have shaved (finished 30 seconds ago).

I wonder why that leaflet didn't mention japanese loses.

Now this guy could play BF2
I once saw a video of a guy jumping down from a 20-30 meter-high (can't recall clearly, it was HIGH) tower. Backwards. Landed, rolled, stood up... He was polish BTW.

Wow, that is hot.
The dificulty is to get an accurate measurement. For that, one needs a reference. And there is NO ideal reference for temperature measurement. Each little range of temperatures has it's own reference, that's why it's so hard.
-
Wow, that is hot.
You are right. Luker3. I suppose the tempoerature measured is with low confidence. But i suppose it was good enough for the article to be placed in a prestigeous magazine. But i can go a little further than that. The temperature is the most complicated thing to measure. There are 50+ measuring methods, each for a different range of temperatures. Sometimes one method holds only for a few degrees (or even less - few tenths or hundreths of a degree), when it is taken by another method. The lower the temperature, the worse it gets.

It's over the top.

Wow, that is hot.
Actually the red giant will only expand as far as current Mecrury orbit :/

Wow, that is hot.
While i can concur, that there can be no maximum 'heat', i also have to say, that in fact there is no 'absolute zero'. Sure, putting zero in helps simplify very hard equations, but that is just mathematical action. There can be nothing that reaches this temperature. Sure, one might think, that one will have absolute zero in place, where there is no matter or radiation. But then (taking more classical aproach) we would never know about it, becouse to measure something we have to 'see' it, and thus we will have something where there was nothing and that won't be absolute zero (vide operators). Or, taking quantum mechanical aproach, temperature has no definition. There are no operators that have temperature as their eigenvalue. It's a statistical creation.

Wow, that is hot.
vide means more or less 'look at'. Planck's old quantum theory enables us to give temperature signature to a radiation. It all comes from radiation of pure black material. Pure black material that has a set temperature, will radiate at specific range of wavelengths (which are directly connected to photon energy by planck's constant). Just find the maximum. Also remember - there is no 'heat'.

Wow, that is hot.
The article said, that energy in the form of X-Rays had a 'temperature' (vide Planck's old Quantum Theory) of a few hundreds of million degrees. So i gathered, that the rest was kinetic energy of particles. Thats how.
-
Wow, that is hot.
...hmmm... i read it now... If that made it to PhysicalReviewLetters, then it's worth noting. Bojangles: Temperature is nothing more than average kinetic energy of a statistic set of particles divided by Boltzman's constant. Contatining charged particles (plasma) is quite easy with magnetic fields (recall the Lorentz force). DEFCON: i don't see how they could use it to initiate fusion. The two require totally different preparations. It's not all about the pressure and temperature.
-
Wow, that is hot.
I am getting 404 for that link. But if You're talking about fusion power, it's been around for some time.

I hope not. I will write an update on the matter soon.

Hehehe.... so... here i am, writing a long letter to the supervisor... awaiting a reply while biting my nails... and then... i get a mail containing these cheerfull words: and I am surprised my heart is still in one piece.

Japan will have to wait. You know, i was swayed to try it ONLY for those 1500Euro on a computer

From what i've read it will depend on what research topic will i propose. It is not an only-for-me offer. It is a general scholarship program, that is being funded by Irish Ministry of Science and Technology (or whatever is that body called). It is aimed for post-graduate students from all over EU. 150 research scholarships are to be handed out + 100 industry offers. There are qualifications of course and i bet the competition will be high.
