How to Build a Mechanical Bullet Which Turns
A Mechanical bullet, which will turn in flight is well within our technical capabilities. The premise is to have a bullet, which is preset to turn a corner can be achieved thru a small gear setting on the bullet or a preset finger on the barrel or in the chamber which can be dialed in prior to discharge. Picture a bullet and shell, directly above the shell on near the bottom of the bullet would be a small gear, which could be turned with your finger nail, each gear indentation would be equivalent to approximately 10 yards, written on the bullet shell would be a scale embossed, stamped or laser printed. The soldier would estimate from his night vision goggles, weapon sight or head gear the distance from his position where the turn needed to occur so the bullet would turn. The bullet would zoom along and as it did the ram air in front of the bullet would take in a little of the relative wind created from it's flight forward. There is to be small tiny holes around the front of the bullets head, when the ram air goes thru those holes it will move that gear back a little at a time, as the ram air progresses in the steady stream it will move the gear a click, at a time, until it is back to center and at that point the gear would dislodge and move towards the side of the intended turn. It would stay there for a second, or the time it takes for the bullet to make a 90-degree turn. At which point it's planned obsolescence would occur and the part would fail and fall off. The bullet would then continue on it's new trajectory. The spin of the bullet and Magnus Effect would stop as soon as the gear moved outward causing severe drag. The trajectory would then be altered and the static stability factor in temporary chaos as the bullet begins to yaw and skid as it starts it's turn. Once the backing and gear fell at the prescribed time due to the forces on it, the bullet would wobble and the oscillations slow and the new trajectory would then become stable as the bullets center of gravity's direction, direction of the cone and the trajectory all become the same once again. The bullet would slow and lose approximately 20% of its velocity due to the turn, induced drag of the skid as more of the bullet would pushing on the relative wind, however this fact will also allow the trajectory to re-stabilize. The parasite drag would also slow the bullet from the gear protruding in flight for that second, but once discharged after the turn, it would mimic the characteristics of a two-stage rocket, and it would be free from the extra weight and drag. The aerodynamics of the turn on the bullet itself might be more akin to that of a small SAM missile. The holes in the front of the bullet will either come thru the front perhaps around the cavity surrounding the hollow tip punch in the center. This idea has great applications for the A-10 for the nose gun where those bullets, which miss the first targets of a convoy end up turning into the additional targets in the line of the convoy. So the pilot might favor a parallel approach slightly off center and the bullets would act like a Major League curve ball on every forth round or so? If vehicles broke ranks and tried to flea or enemy soldiers on foot attempted to run, they could not escape as the bullets would be moving in those directions also. If every forth bullet turned right and every eighth bullet turned left, you might find your runs had higher first pass kill rates. Such a technique will also work good for Apache Attack Helicopters, the fewer passes you have to make the better. In air-to-air combat those seemingly stray bullets would help get the evasive fighter jet. If you are a special forces team entering an urban area for combat and your aerial vision from a loitering UAV, close air support or downloaded Satellite imagery shows bad guy threats around the next corner. Then a calibration devices on the barrel of a machine gun could be set to lay fire around the corner where enemy combatants have staged themselves for an ambush or just to clear the street from combatants before you round the corner.

Creating Artificial Time in a Vacuum With Pulsed Lasers Keying off a very interesting concept confined within Static Quantum Theory and looking for the edge of time or the end of energy or the Quantum Borderline or virtual boarder of nothing. One might use the idea of pulsed lasers created in a defined confined area of a vacuum to create a singularity of a pulsed laser, whose immediate disruption pulses of the singularity which would follow would reach the end of the confinement area faster than the light which would in fact be created and then this traveling disruption would trigger another pulsed laser reciprocal event on the far side of the confinement whose pulsed laser would send it's disruption of the event to occur to the original point of the first singularity of the original laser or starting point, which would trigger the turning off of the first laser before it created the event of singularity or light.

Locusts To Help Make Energy From Bio Waste, part III If we bring the locusts to a feasting area of green cut up bio-waste to allow them to turn that into methane and protein, then we will be able to win the game. We must first limit the areas for egg laying so we do not end up with red-goo syndrome and runaway locust populations. MAV Propulsion and Testing Perhaps we should be looking into advancing the propulsion systems of MAVs, small UAVs by using magnetic propulsion to spin the propellers. When testing a UAV by trying to fly it under the canopy of trees or around sparsely populated tree areas or in cities with streets and housing we may find we have difficult issues.

Einstein Half Dead 100 years ago Albert Einstein developed his Relativity Theory of physics that claimed that the universe is actually based on a space-time-gravity continuum (a non-mechanical version of Rene Descartes' earlier mechanical ether theory) and with time as variable and relative.Einstein believed that his theory disproved "all of Isaac Newton's physics theory", and that "Newton's theory" had disproved all earlier physics theories. Precognition Shock to Prevent Bullet Strike It is a pretty well known fact and has been proven that the body seems to pre-adjust to changes in advance of events by a second or two. For instance there have been studies of test subjects with finger sensors, which would show the subjects pulse or adrenaline spiked right before they were to be shocked.

Archaeology When the Egypt Exploration Fund was created they had memoranda and articles of incorporation that directed the funding for site excavations which showed promise of being outside the Bible Narrative - should not be researched! This troublesome kind of bias is beyond reproach because sites like Memphis have been built over and for all intents and purposes destroyed. In the efforts of people like Schliemann (Troy) and Evans (Crete) to uncover their dreams that led from the 'myths' of Homer they also confused and made horrible mistakes that allow debunking science to discredit artifacts that would have proven valuable.
