Dear Sir
I am a Post-Doc student and I am developing research works in adhesive joints with nano-enhanced glue in Portsmouth University-UK.
I want to add nanoclays specially modified, by chemical treatments, in the glue.
After the nano-processed adhesive will be applied in struc

I'm back in Durham packing the house, office, and preparing for our move. This afternoon I'm also delighted to be speaking to the Duke Retirement Community about Unscientific America. Tomorrow, David and I are off to Austin, Texas for good. For the time being, I must concentrate on boxing up life in North Carolina, but you bet I'll have a lot more to say about the American Physical Society conference and the terrific four other speakers on my panel--Jon Miller, Murray Peshkin, Judith Scotchmoor, and Art Hobson--who are involved in extremely interesting initiatives. And of course, I'll begin addressing energy over the coming weeks too, so stay tuned!

Round One of the Socialized Federalized Medicine-Man fight is over.
As soon as President Obama signs on the dotted line, Round Two will be initiated with a herd of raging bull Attorney Generals (AG) from around the country; all in a charge at the red cape of the constitutionality of congress to mandate the purchase of health insurance by individual citizens.
It’s a set up guys. Obama and his brain trust are out in front on this one. They put the ‘thou-shalt-purchase’ clause in the bill deliberately knowing every freedom-loving, red-blooded Republican AG would charge. They intend to have the Republican’s object to this in bit-and-pieces instead of a full frontal attack that the ENTIRE Bill is unconstitutional.
We Republicans bit the bait real good, but, it was a Trojans horse covered with shiny stuff like the abortion debate; deliberately set to get our attention. While all along, ‘Obamanistas’ fully expect that the Supreme Court will strike down the parts that mandate a person will buy insurance or they will pay through the nose to BigFed one way or another. There are bigger problems ahead, so save some ammo.
We had a saying when I was in the desert in the first Gulf War, ‘It’s not just the mouse that ran through the tent you need to worry about – it’s the viper that’s chasing the mouse you better be afraid of.’
When the Supreme Court decision is finally made – with the anticipated ruling, the bumper sticker "I Heart Socialized Medicine" liberal crowd will pull out the already prepared Round Three plan: Public Option in tandem with the Federal Government picking up the tab incrementally to offset the loss.
"But, what else can we do? We can’t leave people without health care can we?"
Liberals will sob as the complete implementation of socialized; taxpayer health care is implemented with Under New Management Federal Clinic signs being put up over the old Mayo Clinic signs, and hospitals across the country, et.al.
It’s part of the plan. For example, do you believe that Obama just wrote that Executive Order about Federal Funding of Abortions in the eleventh hour before the vote? That thing was written months ago and held to the last minute to make it look like some kind of ‘real’ concession to the hold-outs.
The liberal guys are not some lightweights. They have a plan while we Republicans do a Saint Vitus Dance jerking around the details and nickel-and-diming our attacks that should have been coordinated years ago. It’s not like the Democrats didn’t start this with Clinton Care in the early 1990s.
Anyway, it’s critical that we need to understand their game and focus on a way to repeal this bill and counter it with workable market approaches to health care with the doctors providing that care and the patients at the center of gravity:
(1) States should implement; as difficult as it is, meaningful health care reform for its citizens at the appropriate level of government. Health Care is a real problem.
(2) States should intervene and represent any citizens of their state that the Federal Government decides to fine for failure to purchase insurance.
(3) States should facilitate competition in health care providers and health care facilities, and increase the number of students entering medical and nursing schools.
(4) Republicans better send ‘Constitutional Gun-Fighters’ and thinkers to Congress.
(5) States should band together – repeal the 17th Amendment, and take their Senators back. This action will give the states a place at the table in Washington and put teeth into State Sovereignty again.
If we thought the nightmare of the Federal ‘No Child Left Behind’ program was hard to deal with, just wait for General Hospital USA . Hold your ears and don’t dance to the liberal’s song.

When it comes to 3-D puzzles, Rubik's cube pales in comparison with the latest creation from JPL Geophysicist Donald Argus and colleagues Chuck DeMets of the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Richard Gordon of Rice University, Houston. The trio has just put the finishing touches on a 20-year effort to precisely describe the relative movements of the 25 interlocking tectonic plates that account for about 97 percent of Earth's surface.
Earth's tectonic plates are in constant motion, sliding past one another as they float atop our planet's molten interior. Their collisions and shifts can create mountain ranges or cause earthquakes, like the ones that struck Haiti and Chile this year.
The model, called MORVEL, for "Mid-Ocean Ridge Velocities," significantly improves the resolution and precision of the researchers' previous model of tectonic plate velocities published in 1990. It can be used to predict how each tectonic plate moves in relation to other plates, and allows scientists to predict future plate movements and identify places where movements have changed over time, areas that are useful for studying the underlying forces that control plate movements.
For more information on MORVEL, see the Rice news release at:

Democrats expanding "Socialism on American soil"
Governor Rick Perry released the following statement late Monday:
Unfortunately, the health care vote had more to do with expanding socialism on American soil than it does fixing our health care finance and delivery systems. The Obama health care bill undermines patient choice, personal responsibility, medical innovation and fiscal responsibility in America. As passed by the U.S. House, the bill will cost Texas taxpayers billions more, and drive our nation much deeper into debt. Congress's backroom deals and parliamentary maneuvers undermined the public trust and increased cynicism in our political process. Texas leaders will continue to do everything in our power to fight this federal excess and find ways to protect our families, taxpayers and medical providers from this gross federal overreach.
Now Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott will join with a number of other States to formally challenge the Health Care Reform Act. So far the list includes: Alabama, Florida, Nebraska, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, Washington. (Virginia and Idaho are filing separate suits on their own.)
The Texas AG released this statment. From the Washington Examiner:
"To protect all Texans' constitutional rights, preserve the constitutional framework intended by our nation's founders, and defend our state from further infringement by the federal government, the State of Texas and other states will legally challenge the federal health care legislation."
