Video: Shark Spies Steered by “Squid Juice”

makoshark.jpgI’m sure you’ll all remem­ber that happy day last March, when word broke that a Darpa-​​funded sci­en­tist was look­ing for ways to turn sharks into “stealth spies.” Now, thanks to the sharp-​​eyed SC, we can all check out a video of the shark train­ing in action.
Back in the spring, I fig­ured this research was in its ear­li­est, most basic stages — get­ting a sense of what makes a shark tick. Not so. Boston University pro­fes­sor Jelle Atema can actu­ally “steer a shark” — either through “elec­tri­cal stim­u­la­tion of the brain” or by deliv­er­ing “lit­tle odor pulses” of “squid juice” to the predator’s nose.
Atema’s Darpa fund­ing is done. So Atema is look­ing for more cash to bet­ter train his sharky posse. Maybe to “track ocean tem­per­a­ture changes,” or the “spread of pol­lu­tion,” he says.
Meanwhile, “the mil­i­tary has… made the research clas­si­fied, and it is now run out of the Naval Undersea Warfare Center,” says a Boston University alumni newslet­ter. No word, yet, on whether the lit­tle bug­gers have frickin’ lasers attached to their heads. But, surely, it can’t be that far off.

    This is dis­gust­ing.
    How low can the US mil­i­tary sinc in becom­ing such low lifes?
    Is there any­thing you will not do to dom­i­nate the world?
    Just dis­gust­ing,

    about time you peo­ple started pay­ing me to road test all this stuff in humans. Look for­ward to our next encounter in Las Vegas. This time, if you buy me a beer I promise not to chase a deputy Director around the car park of the Belagio in my dol­lar rent’a car !

    I also give my account to her, she want to play my num­ber, she also can play. But one day, I found she had another hus­band, and she have no longer to play with me. And I found my num­ber is empty, she took my things changed the cheap RS gold. I was very sad; I did not believe she is the girl that I know.

    I have not had to play Gaia, and occa­sion­ally I will play friend num­ber, in order to spent time. One day, one more than 20 lev­els player asked me if I can as her hus­band. At that time, I think she is a fraud­sters, I think that num­ber had no things. So I asked her if she had QQ and video. She said she had. So we added QQ and started video, after a short of time video chat, I knew that she was not a liar, she just a new player of Gaia. Soon, we closed the video, we returned to the game, and I bought Gaia gold change some things that mar­ried need use, and we married.

    Later, in January of this year, I have entered into this long hoped for world. Following in their pre­vi­ous game, I have some expe­ri­ence, at first I bought some RF cp to arm my num­ber, so I grew up grad­u­ally. Later, I joined the empire of dark­ness, I rec­og­nize some friends. Later matured, I sep­a­rated from the dark­ness; to join a trade union has just estab­lished a new, expand­ing trade union began a jour­ney, and I rec­og­nized a lot of friends.

    Three years ago, after friends intro­duced, I played the Rappelz game. At that time, I dazed and con­fused, I like to go my own way, I have a lot of rap­pelz rupees, but I became the most evil vil­lains in the game. Until I encoun­tered her, I found the mean­ing of survival.
