I have one of those silly Chinese spy pens that scales up the 640 by 480 video to 1280 by 1024. This results in jerky video at 12 frames per second. I was wondering if it would be possible to swap the two clock crystals inside for ones of a higher frequency in order to get a better frame rate. I thi

Hi Folks;

I am aware that the relative velocity composition formula for two relativistic space craft traveling in an antiparallel direction with respect to each other is as follows.

vrel = (v1 + v2)/{1 + [(v1 v2)/[C^2]]}

I am also aware of the simple relativistic momentum formula of (Mo)(v)(gamma

How well is your facility prepared to face that eventuality? How can you train and drill staff without disrupting regular activities? Should there be a nationa

Communities often complain about wind turbines, power plants, and power poles —calling them eyesores. Now, energy companies are working with architects to make more visually-appealing designs. Do you think people will be more accepting of power generation in their communities if the facilities
