DARPA’s M3 Robotic Cheetah set a new land speed record for legged robots. The Robot Cheetah was able to gallop at 18 mph on a lab treadmill.
Testing of a free running cheetah robot prototype is planned for later in 2012. The cheetah robot was developed by Boston Dynamics.
The robot’s movements are patterned after those of the cheetah in nature, increasing its stride and running speed by flexing and un-flexing its back on each step.
DARPA video demonstration of M3 Cheetah Robot:
DARPA – Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, supplies technological options for the entire Department of Defense and is designed to be the technological engine for transforming DoD.
Ground robots have already saved many lives and preventeds thousands of injuries in military explosive disposal missions.
Robots may more effectively assist soldiers across a greater range of missions.
DARPA’s M3 – Maximum Mobility and Manipulation program seeks to create and demonstrate significant scientific and engineering advances in robot mobility and manipulation capability.

Judge Andrew Napolitano was Fired from his popular Fox Business tv show Freedom Watch. Freedom is banned in America.
Censorship and media control is unfolding in the Establishment’s desperate attempt to shut down detractors.
The White House run and George Soros funded Media Matters have recently attacked Pat Buchanan and Judge Andrew Napolitano.
According to Alex Jones, the 8 executives of NewsCorp who were arrested have been blackmailed to not investigate Operation Fast and Furious, DOJ Holder and Obama.
Rupert Murdoch’s being blackmailed to shut down any “liberty” kind of talk that threatens the Globalist’s takeover. Liberty is banned.
1DT or One-Dimensional Thinking is a process based upon the idea that most questions have only a yes/no, good/bad, either/or answer.
One-Dimensional thinkers often look at the world in terms of extremes and ignore any middle ground that doesn’t agree with their own idea or personal agenda.
Everything must fit neatly into the good/evil paradigm. And the 1D thinker always considers his side to be the good side and those who disagree, the bad or evil side.
My way or the Highway.
The need to categorize people is a function of one-dimensional thinking. Conservatives and Liberals sacrifice individuality to join in a herd mentality.
By polarizing people into clearly defined categories, it makes it easy and convenient for the one dimensional thinker to dismiss the opinions of others with whom he might not agree, and not spend a moment considering the issues raised.
Nationalism is a type of one-dimensional thinking used by facist regimes as a means of rallying people behind the government in a state of obedience.
Examples of One-Dimensional Thinking: “ If you don’t like the President why don’t you move to Communist China?”
“ You’re either with us, or you’re with the terrorists.” – George W. Bush
Iranian-Canadian Mahmoud Reza Khavari was chairman of the board and managing director of Iran’s largest bank, the state-owned Bank Melli, until he resigned and fled the country for Toronto, Canada in 2011.
Prosecutors are seeking to question him and officials at several Iranian banks suspected of facilitating fraudulent rial and foreign currency banking payments totaling over $3 Billion USD.
BMI is owned and operated by the government of Iran and should follow the banking principles and practices described in the Islamic Banking law of Iran, only engaging in interest-free Islamic transactions.
Canada has no extradition treaty with Iran and they can not legally extradite individuals to countries that are likely to torture prisoners or impose death-penalty sentences.
How to reverse aging – will the enzyme telomerase be used in our lifetime to reverse the aging process?
Telomerase is a RiboNucleo protein that is an enzyme which adds DNA sequence repeats and prevents constant loss of important DNA from chromosome ends.
Aging is the buildup of cellular error acccording to Michio Kaku. Starve cells and they will live longer, perhaps 30% longer. This is a known way to extend the life of organisms.
The enzyme telomerase allows for replacement of short bits of DNA known as telomeres, which are otherwise shortened when a cell divides via mitosis.
With the presence of telomerase, each dividing cell can replace the lost bit of DNA, and any single cell can then divide unbounded.
Telomerase therapies may be used to combat cancer and extend lifespan significantly.
Laboratory experiments on mice with resveratrol have reported beneficial cardiovascular effects and lowering of blood sugar.
Resveratrol is found in the skin of red grapes and in other fruits. Red wine contains very little resveratrol. Better to eat or juice the red grape.
With resveratrol and other enzymes, we are finding tantalizing pieces of the Fountain of Youth.
Will the study of enzymes like resveratrol and telomerase one day lead research scientists to a significant breakthrough and reversal of the aging process?
Federal acts SOPA [internet free speech takeover] and NDAA [indefinite detention without a trial] are laws terribly destructive to the Freedom of Americans. Wake Up People.
There are also new US State laws to go into effect in 2012 in America, the former home of the free. Some are:
