Self-healing rubber bounces back [BBC]

Rajesh Shetty (rshetty) — Thu, 21 Feb 2008 05:31:05 GMT

Now this is what I call "Brilliant!".

A material that is able to self-repair even when it is sliced in two has been invented by French researchers.

The as-yet-unnamed material - a form of artificial rubber - is made from vegetable oil and a component of urine.

The substance, described in the journal Nature, produces surfaces when cut that retain a strong chemical attraction to each other.

Pieces of the material join together again as if never parted without the need for glue or a special treatment.

This remarkable property comes from careful engineering of the molecules in the material.

The French researchers are already making kilogramme quantities in their Paris laboratories and say the process is almost completely green, and could be completely so with a few adjustments.

World Famous Bushman from San Francisco's Fisherman's wharf

Rajesh Shetty (rshetty) — Sun, 16 Dec 2007 06:10:23 GMT

I was in San Francisco city today and saw the bushman again. I had to stop and get a good laugh out of his acts of scaring people and it gives a light moment for watchers and few seconds scare spike to people who goes thru the quick scare attack of bushman. I thought of googling bushman and He is on Wikipedia and I was amazed by looking at the details on him . Here is the Wikipedia article on bushman and when you are in San Francisco next time make sure go get a good laughter at Fisherman's wharf.

World Famous Bushman

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Bushman giving a scare

David Johnson also known as the World Famous Bushman, is a busker (street performer) who has been entertaining passers-by along Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco since 1980. His current act began after he tried dressing as a robot but found there were too many others doing the same thing.^[1] Johnson hides behind branches and waits for unsuspecting people to wander by. When they approach, he jumps out and startles them. Crowds gather to watch him work,^[2] often including those he has previously scared.^[1]

Crowds usually watch Johnson in front of Joe's Crab Shack, located across the street from where Johnson usually sits, to see Johnson entertain people.

In a "good year", Johnson claims to earn $60,000.^[3] He employs a bodyguard to protect him against attacks by the unamused, to distract his targets, and to alert him to the approach of elderly people so he can avoid scaring them.^[1]

The police have received a number of complaints about the Bushman, and Fisherman's Wharf merchants have tried to shut him down.^[4] In 2004, he was charged with four misdemeanors, but a jury cleared him. The District Attorney subsequently dropped several remaining public nuisance complaints.^[2]
