ARLINGTON, Texas (PNN) - November 13, 2012 - We’ve seen nanomaterials that can be used to convert light into electricity and others that can convert heat into electricity. Now researchers from the University of Texas at Arlington and Louisiana Tech University have created a hybrid nanomaterial that can do both. By pairing the material with microchips, the researchers say it could be used in self-powered sensors, low-power electronic devices, and biomedical implants.

WASHINGTON (PNN) - November 20, 2012 - A Senate proposal touted as protecting Amerikans' e-mail privacy has been quietly rewritten, giving government agencies more surveillance power than they possess under current law.

RIDGEFIELD PARK, New Jersey (PNN) - November 19, 2012 - Samsung’s 2012 top-of-the-line plasmas and LED HDTVs offer new features never before available within a television including a built-in, internally wired HD camera, twin microphones, face tracking and speech recognition. While these features give you unprecedented control over an HDTV, the devices themselves, more similar than ever to a personal computer, may allow hackers or even Samsung to see and hear you and your family, and collect extremely personal data.

WASHINGTON (PNN) - November 14, 2012 - Less than a week after a New Orleans suburbanite petitioned the White House to allow Louisiana to secede from the Fascist Police States of Amerika, petitions from seven states have collected enough signatures to trigger a promised review from the illegitimate Obama regime.

CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts (PNN) - November 12, 2012 - Scientists have theorized that paper-thin composite nanomaterials could stop bullets just as effectively as heavyweight body armor, but progress has been hampered by their inability to reliably test such materials against projectile impacts.

WASHINGTON (PNN) - November 11, 2012 - How would Old Glory look with 30 stars instead of 50? As far-fetched as it may sound, the White House might soon be forced by its own rules to examine the question.

On Nov.7, the day after illegitimate President Barack Obama was re-elected despite the fact that he is constitutionally disqualified for holding the office of president, the White House’s website received a petition asking the bogus regime to allow Louisiana to secede.

DENVER, Colorado and SEATTLE, Washington (PNN) - November 7, 2012 - Colorado voters made history Tuesday night, passing a constitutional amendment to legalize, tax, and regulate marijuana and becoming the first state in the Fascist Police States of Amerika to break with marijuana prohibition. Hours later, voters in Washington state followed suit, passing a legalization initiative there, but a similar effort in Oregon came up short.

NEW YORK (PNN) - November 6, 2012 - Long gas station lines and empty gas pumps have plagued drivers across New York and New Jersey since superstorm Hurricane Sandy slammed into the east coast last Monday, leaving a gas shortage across the region.

NEW YORK (PNN) - October 28, 2012 - I.B.M. scientists are reporting progress in a chip making technology that is likely to ensure the shrinking of the size of the basic digital switch at the heart of modern microchips for more than another decade.

CHICAGO, Illinois (PNN) - October 24, 2012 - With a new megapressure environment, scientists will be able to replicate pressures one and a half times stronger than those found at the center of the Earth. The specialized anvil cell can create double the amount of pressure than anyone had previously demonstrated, an environment where new materials can be formed and where minerals behave very strangely.
