    yes indeed!
    them (CERN) and Boeing together, reminds me of Frank Herbert's characters (Holtzmann?) who create the Holtzmann drive, whatever it was called, the warp drive that the Navigators use.. to avoid long travel.
    Oh yeah. the point being, there's a horrible horrible side effect to using an energy shield.

    should the shield be struck by a lazgun, there's a thing where a scalar subatomic reaction happens, cleaner than but more dangerous than a nuke.
    so the tech is a no go according to Herbert lol, a dead end trap for idiot rats.

    CERN is just scary stuff man. black magic and even the former pope blesses it lmao. what the ffffff

    Quote The Holtzman effect[1] is a fictional scientific phenomenon in the Dune universe created by Frank Herbert, beginning with the 1965 novel Dune. The effect is never explained in detail, but it makes (among other things) defensive force shields and instantaneous space travel possible.[2]

    Frank Herbert was inconsistent with the spelling of "Holtzman," resulting in the variant spellings "Holtzmann" (1976's Children of Dune)[3] and "Holzmann" (1985's Chapterhouse: Dune).[4] This may be intentional, as Herbert mutated other words and names over the several millennia the Dune series spans, such as the change of "Arrakis" to "Rakis" and "Caladan" to "Dan" beginning with Heretics of Dune (1984).[5]

    According to the Legends of Dune prequel trilogy by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson (2002–2004), the Holtzman effect is named after the scientist who discovered it, Tio Holtzman (though for many of its applications, Holtzman in fact takes credit for the mathematical theories of his assistant, Norma Cenva).[6]

    norma cenva HMM could be an anagram, frankie was clever like that... like any mystic he must have told a few riddles too



    norma cenva
    cern and what else i dunno cause im an ignoramus.
    hellstroms hive is where to really read about the holtzman **** altho its not named as such.



    edit I was wrong about WHICH anagram but hey it was an anagram, lmao

    Quote Norma Cenva is a fictional character from the Dune universe created by Frank Herbert. Mentioned briefly in Herbert's God Emperor of Dune (1981), she plays a large role in the Legends of Dune prequel trilogy (2002–2004) written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson. The character reappears as the Oracle of Time in the Brian Herbert/Anderson novels Hunters of Dune (2006) and Sandworms of Dune (2007), which conclude the original series.

    Her name is an anagram of "Norma Vance", wife of author Jack Vance, with whom Frank Herbert was good friends.[citation needed]

    too creepy lmao that her name also contains the word cern

    Here's another mysterious interruption of service, this time an unmanned supply vehicle from Russia,
    they are saying it will never make it to the Space Station --

    http://www.cnn.com/2015/04/29/world/...hip/index.html

    NASA: Russia seeks contact with craft bound for International Space Station
    By Laura Smith-Spark, CNN
    Updated 8:05 AM ET, Wed April 29, 2015

    (CNN)Russia is continuing efforts to make contact with an unmanned cargo spacecraft that took off on a resupply mission to the International Space Station but is now spinning out of control, NASA said Wednesday.

    The ISS Progress 59 cargo spacecraft launched successfully early Tuesday from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan.

    But after it separated from the Soyuz booster rocket's third stage, Russian flight controllers were unable to confirm the health of all the spacecraft's systems, including the deployment of its navigational antennae and docking system, NASA said.

    A planned rendezvous with the ISS six hours later was initially postponed to Thursday, but it's now unclear whether it will happen at all.

    According to NASA, the cargo ship is carrying more than 3 tons of food, fuel, oxygen, spare parts and scientific experiment hardware for the space station.

    But the hitch will not put the six ISS crew members at risk, NASA said.

    "The spacecraft was not carrying any supplies critical for the United States Operating Segment (USOS) of the station," a statement said. "Both the Russian and USOS segments of the station continue to operate normally and are adequately supplied well beyond the next planned resupply flight."

    That next flight, which will be the seventh SpaceX commercial resupply services mission to the space station, is not scheduled to take off before June 19, NASA said.

    Meanwhile, Russian flight controllers continue their efforts to make contact with Progress 59 as it passes over Russian ground stations.

    NASA said Tuesday that Russian flight controllers had "confirmed that the vehicle had entered into a slow spin and have issued commands to attempt to control it."

    According to Russian state news agency Tass, six attempts to make contact will be made Wednesday.

    The U.S. supplies on board the spacecraft include spare parts for the station's environmental control and life support system, backup spacewalk hardware and crew clothing, "all of which are replaceable," NASA said.

    U.S. astronaut Terry Virts, from Maryland, is the current space station commander.

    CNN's Amanda Barnett contributed to this report.

    BOOM check this out my friends and pray for America to turn around --
    power at what cost I ask you?

    and I was right about Boeing, omg screw them!

    Boeing Unveils Amazing, Slightly Terrifying New Electromagnetic Pulse Weapon

    With pinpoint accuracy, this electronic warfare drone can black out opposing forces at will.



    BOEING'S "CHAMP" (COUNTER-ELECTRONICS HIGH-POWERED MICROWAVE ADVANCED MISSILE PROJECT) IS A ONE-MISSILE, FLYING BLACKOUT. IMAGE SOURCE: BOEING.

    Born into Generation X, I grew up with the threat of nuclear war -- and all its corollaries, from visions of mushroom clouds to "duck and cover" drills in high school to Terminator movies, and of course, the ever-present worry that one day a sneaky Soviet satellite would detonate way up in the sky and fry all of our electronics with an "electromagnetic pulse."

    So imagine my surprise when the U.S. Air Force confirmed last week that it's developed an electromagnetic pulse weapon of its own, and that Boeing (NYSE:BA) is helping to build it.


    OAK RIDGE NATIONAL LABORATORY MAPS THE AREAS LIKELY TO BE BLACKED OUT IN THE EVENT OF A HIGH-ALTITUDE NUCLEAR EMP ATTACK ON THE UNITED STATES. BOEING'S AREA OF EFFECT WILL BE CONSIDERABLY SMALLER. IMAGE SOURCE: OAK RIDGE NATIONAL LABORATORY.

    A CHAMP-ion idea
    The weapon in question: Boeing's "CHAMP," short for Counter-electronics High-powered Microwave Advanced Missile Project. It's essentially the old nuclear electromagnetic pulse weapon that we used to worry so much about -- but without the nuclear part. CHAMP carries a small generator that emits microwaves to fry electronics with pinpoint accuracy. It targets not nations or cities but individual buildings, blacking out their electronics rather than blowing up physical targets (or people).

    What makes CHAMP even more interesting is that, unlike a nuclear electromagnetic pulse weapon, which fires once, blacking out entire nation-states, CHAMP can fire multiple times, pinpointing and blacking out only essential targets. This would permit, for example, taking down radar defenses in a hostile state, while saving the electrical grid that supports the civilian population. In a 2012 test flight in Utah, a single CHAMP was reported to have blacked out seven separate targets in succession, in one single mission.



    WHEN CHAMP LIGHTS UP, BUILDINGS GO DARK -- ONE BY ONE. IMAGE SOURCE: BOEING.

    Even back then, a Boeing representative was able to boast: "We hit every target we wanted to," predicting further that "in the near future, this technology may be used to render an enemy's electronic and data systems useless even before the first troops or aircraft arrive." Three years later, that future has arrived. Air Force Research Laboratory commander Maj. Gen. Tom Masiello says CHAMP is "an operational system already in our tactical air force."

    Who makes it?
    Boeing headlines the CHAMP product, but at least two other companies are known to be involved in the project. According to Military Embedded Systems, it's actually Raytheon (NYSE:RTN) that builds the electronic innards of the device -- the "shooting end" of a weapon that doesn't actually shoot anyone. (Raytheon's involvement shouldn't come as a surprise, given the company's expertise building complementary weapons, such as its MALD-J radar-spoofing, electronics-jamming drone.)

    Additionally, Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT) builds the Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile -- Extended Range (JASSM-ER), which the Air Force intends to use as CHAMP's delivery mechanism. A cruise missile with an estimated range in excess of 600 miles, JASSM-ER will itself be deployable from combat aircraft such as F-15 and F-16 fighter jets, B-1 and B-52 bombers, and the F-35 stealth fighter -- extending CHAMP's reach even further.

    To date, Military Embedded Systems notes that the Air Force Research Laboratory has contracted Boeing to build only five CHAMP devices. But the trend in Pentagon acquisitions projects suggests the Air Force could soon be building these weapons en masse. From MALD-J radar-jamming drones to Switchblade kamikaze guided rockets and now CHAMP mini-electromagnetic-pulse weapons, the Air Force seems intent on fighting its next war more or less entirely by remote control.

    To the extent CHAMP makes that easier for them, I expect it to be a very popular product indeed.

    This $19 trillion industry could destroy the Internet
    One bleeding-edge technology is about to put the World Wide Web to bed. And if you act quickly, you could be among the savvy investors who enjoy the profits from this stunning change. Experts are calling it the single largest business opportunity in the history of capitalism... The Economist is calling it "transformative"... But you'll probably just call it "how I made my millions." Don't be too late to the party -- click here for one stock to own when the Web goes dark.



    CHAMP COULD BE ARRIVING IN AIR FORCE ARSENALS SOON -- DELIVERED BY STEALTH. IMAGE SOURCE: BOEING.
