“THE PATCH” — FOR FOOD

“THE PATCH” — FOR FOOD
For years, smok­ers look­ing to quit have used “the patch” to deliver small doses of their nico­tine fix. Now the Army is work­ing on a sim­i­lar sys­tem — to give sol­diers the nutri­ents they need dur­ing wartime.
Here’s how the Transdermal Nutrient Delivery System might work, its devel­op­ers say: tiny phys­i­o­log­i­cal mon­i­tors would keep tabs on a soldier’s metab­o­lism, and then send infor­ma­tion on his nutri­tional needs to a proces­sor. This proces­sor would then trig­ger a micro­elec­tri­cal mechan­i­cal sys­tem that would trans­mit the micronu­tri­ents either through skin pores or pumped directly into blood cap­il­lar­ies — into the soldier’s body.
But don’t expect relief from those nasty-​​tasting rations any time soon. The Natick Soldier Center says it won’t be ready for another decade, at least.

    Now I have more Sword of the New World Vis in this game. Of course the Sword of the New World Gold is gained by I upgrade and kill the mon­sters. If you kill a big mon­sters you can get more Sword of the New World money.
