TULSA, Okla. (AP) ? Tulane safety Devon Walker fractured his spine in a head-to-head collision with a teammate during a game in Tulsa, the team doctor said Saturday.

Dr. Buddy Savoie said during a postgame news conference that Walker is in stable condition and will need spinal surgery in the "the next day or two."

"He was stable when we transported him," Savoie said. "I do not think, based on the information we have, his life was ever in danger."

Tulsa was leading 35-3 and facing a fourth-and-2 with the ball at the 33-yard line when the Golden Hurricane called timeout. Tulane then called timeout.

When play resumed, Tulsa quarterback Cody Green tossed a short pass to Willie Carter, who caught it at about the 28, and turned upfield. He was tackled around the 18-yard line, with defensive tackle Julius Warmsley and Walker sandwiching him and apparently smashing the crowns of their helmets into each other.

Medical personnel from both teams came out about 12:37 p.m. to attend to Walker as he lay on the field.

Savoie said after the game that Walker "actually never completely lost consciousness" and was breathing.

About 12:52 p.m., he was lifted onto a stretcher and loaded into a waiting ambulance about two minutes later. The ambulance drove off the field about 1 p.m.

FOX Sports reported a hush went over the crowd at H.A. Stadium as Walker was attended to on the field, and that several coaches were in tears. Spectators bowed their heads as someone on the field led the stadium in prayer.

The game resumed at 1:20 p.m.

Walker is a senior majoring in cell and molecular biology. His brother, Raynard, told The Associated Press that their mother was watching the game on television when her son was injured.

The family was waiting for an update on Walker's condition, he said.

"We haven't heard much at all," he added. "We're still kind of in the dark right now."

Tulane head coach Curtis Johnson told a FOX Sports sideline TV reporter after the 45-10 loss that he hadn't received an update on Walker's condition, but said the injury had devastated his team.

"He's one of us, and he's a good kid," Johnson said.

Researchers create remote-controlled roaches for rescue reasons

Experts and leaders gathered in Italy may disagree on the cure, but the malady seems clear: the world economy faces a "perfect storm" of risks that include prolonged crisis in a structurally flawed Europe, political paralysis pushing America off a "fiscal cliff," a slowdown in the emerging economies drying up the last of global growth, and the spectacularly destabilizing prospect of war over Iran's nuclear program.

    Chat Gim (2005): Joining the Fight

    Chat Gim (2005): Joining the Fight

    The clip Joining the fight from Chat gim (2005) The real reason I'm here, is to seek help. There is an Imperial Edict. Anyone who practices martial arts will be executed. They are the army. There are many of them. They kill everyone. The children and the aged Not one spared This is not a battle. This is a disaster. A moment in time to some May seem forever to others A swordsman often dies under his own blade Cause and effect, that is one's karma You rescued them And from whence the mortal world they came, back into it they go Only the Almighty knows their destiny. Yun-chong. I know how you feel. You don't have to go. Yun-chong. Yes, Master. I know Since you know what may be ahead If you leave Mount Heaven Do you think you can still keep your promise? I wanted to put my past behind me But if you ask me to go back into the world I really do not know, Master Yuanyin! Don't run so fast. You will feel dizzy. Please help us. Help the innocent villagers. There are hundreds of lives in the village. Adults and children! Yuanyin

    Chat Gim (2005): on Mount Heaven

    The clip on mount heaven from Chat gim (2005) Stone-beast. Dagger-peak was killed beside the creek outside Martial Village. This village used to have 99 households. To protect themselves from bandits. They all practice martial arts. There are a total of 283 people, including children. Three hundred pieces of silver per head. We can ask for 85,000 pieces of silver They've never liked the idea of us counting the children. Within the Northwestern Boundary This is the last place where we can make a fortune Should we raise the price this time? Black-spirit. Send a message to the Duke. When we have a deal, we will start the massacre. It's all your fault! To sneak him out of the village, that was all. Now we have to take him to Mount Heaven? Now there's no more road, no food either. You want Fang to take the blame all by herself? Stop saying that I give you trouble If you are in trouble, I am in trouble as well Save the village by believing in him? Look, look at him He was talking in his sleep! How far are we from Mount Heaven? Did you understand that? It started yesterday since we went uphill. Are you cold?

    The clip begging for fu's life from Chat gim (2005) Han You go back and guard the man. Interrogate him after dark. He came with bad intentions. Probably about the Imperial Edict. What edict? To kill all martial arts practitioners? This government is even more brutal than the bandits. Don't listen to rumors. Righteousness exists in Heaven and on Earth. Merging into all life forms. Teacher is gone. You have to take a stand. This matter is in your hands What can I say? This is out of my control. What can I do? The rope is ready And someone will be hung. No one is going to speak up for him! Ask Han for help. He will listen to you. We grew up together You don't like killing, do you? I was told to keep guard. You ask me to let him go? Do you realize how much trouble I will get into? Evil deeds deserve retribution. And good deeds deserve gratitude. Exactly! Exactly! I'm trying to show gratitude where it's due. Is this gratitude to you? Then forget I spoke. You save him and I get blamed? You think it's fair to me? I'll just tell it this way. That I tricked you by saying that Fang needed you urgently. And I saved him while you were away. Nonsense Who will believe that I am so easily tricked by you? If I said that Fang is in danger, wouldn't you go?

I've been a smart man all my life. I'll never employ such tricks. What do you want? I wanna tell you. you've chosen a way of no return. you've always been inferior to me, in terms of conspiracies and martial arts. I've even exploited you once. you're no equivalent to me. Tell him to kneel. Kneel... Kneel! you're kneeling to me now... How will you defeat me? Junbao, didn't you like to help people? I earned my power by paying a lot of efforts. I won't give it up.

    Video Game Heaven - Mortal Kombat 2 Review (SNES)

    Video Game Heaven - Mortal Kombat 2 Review (SNES)

    Mortal Kombat 2 for the SNES and Sega Genesis is argueably the best MK game ever. I personally love MKII and UMKIII. The best was probably Trilogy but I dont really know. The 1st was great, but the controlls stuck to much. Mortal Kombat 2 has tweaked it some the graphics are much better, and the sprites for that time were very real. The fatalities have gotten a huge kickstart, and we finally got blood on the SNES version. Of course parents were probably bitching about this because of the blood factor but as me and many other reviewers say "IT'S THE PARENTS FAULT! THEY HAVE TO BUY IT!" MKII is a classic, this is one of the games that I could never stop playing but never could beat. I always get to kintaro or tshang tsung, get pissed and quit. Usually I get a game over with Kintaro, same thing with Motoro from MKIII and UMKIII. I will do reviews of MKIII and UMKIII. But for now, Enjoy my review of Mortal Kombat II.

Towards computing with water droplets: Superhydrophobic droplet logic

ScienceDaily (Sep. 7, 2012) ? ????Researchers in Aalto University have developed a new concept for computing, using water droplets as bits of digital information. This was enabled by the discovery that upon collision with each other on a highly water-repellent surface, two water droplets rebound like billiard balls.

In the work, published in the journal Advanced Materials, the researchers experimentally determined the conditions for rebounding of water droplets moving on superhydrophobic surfaces. In the study, a copper surface coated with silver and chemically modified with a fluorinated compound was used. This method enables the surface to be so water-repellent that water droplets roll off when the surface is tilted slightly. Superhydrophobic tracks, developed during a previous study, were employed for guiding droplets along designed paths.

Using the tracks, the researchers demonstrated that water droplets could be turned into technology, "superhydrophobic droplet logic." For example, a memory device was built where water droplets act as bits of digital information. Furthermore, devices for elementary Boolean logic operations were demonstrated. These simple devices are building blocks for computing.

Video: http://youtu.be/GTnVwyWaVQw (Superhydrophobic droplet logic: flip-flop memory)

Furthermore, when the water droplets are loaded with reactive chemical cargo, the onset of a chemical reaction could be controlled by droplet collisions. Combination of the collision-controlled chemical reactions with droplet logic operations potentially enables programmable chemical reactions where single droplets serve simultaneously as miniature reactors and bits for computing.

Video: http://youtu.be/ygMdQ9NUbok (Chemical reaction controlled by droplet collisions)

"It is fascinating to observe a new physical phenomenon for such everyday objects -- water droplets," says Robin Ras, an Academy Research Fellow in the Molecular Materials research group.

"I was surprised that such rebounding collisions between two droplets were never reported before, as it indeed is an easily accessible phenomenon: I conducted some of the early experiments on water-repellent plant leaves from my mother's garden," explains a member of the research group, Henrikki Mertaniemi, who discovered the rebounding droplet collisions two years ago during a summer student project in the research group of Ras and Academy Professor Olli Ikkala.

The researchers foresee that the present results enable technology based on superhydrophobic droplet logic. Possible applications include autonomous simple logic devices not requiring electricity, and programmable biochemical analysis devices.

Tata Communications delivers critical connectivity to Cargotec's ...

Over 150 sites in developed and emerging markets to benefit from improved Wide Area Network capabilities via Tata Communications? round-the-world fibre optic cable network

NEW YORK & MUMBAI, India?(BUSINESS WIRE)?

Tata Communications, a leading provider of The New World of Communications, today announces that it has been chosen by Cargotec, the world?s leading provider of cargo handling solutions for ships, ports, terminals and local distribution, to deliver Wide Area Network (WAN) connectivity to over 150 Cargotec sites globally through Tata Communications??round-the-world?fibre optic cable network ? the world?s only wholly-owned subsea cable ring.

Cargotec?s operations in over 50 countries across Europe, Asia, Middle East, Americas and Africa will benefit from increased capacity, speed, resilience and enhanced communications capabilities thanks to a fully managed, end-to-end Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) network. This will enable the company to improve productivity and operational efficiency worldwide by streamlining its supply chain.

Cargotec chose Tata Communications for its comprehensive round-the-world network, which allows Cargotec to go from having multiple suppliers for its global WAN connectivity to just one. Not only does this reduce the chances of network failure, but it also delivers an always-on, cost-effective solution to cater for both Cargotec?s main offices and smaller sites, regardless of their location. Cargotec will now be able to offer a uniform service to its offices across more than 50 emerging and established markets, further enhancing global operational efficiency. It will also allow Cargotec to extend its network wherever the business grows.
