 WASHINGTON - More than 200 people suspected of ties to terrorism bought guns in the U.S. last year legally, FBI figures show.The 247 people who were allowed to buy weapons did so after going through required background checks as required by federal law.It is not illegal for people listed on the government s terror watch list to buy weapons. For years, that has bothered Democratic stanley cup  Sen. Frank Lautenberg, who is trying again to change the law to keep weapons out of the hands of suspected terrorists.The secret, fluid nature of the terror watch list has made closing what Lautenberg calls a  terror gap  in the nation s gun laws a challenge. About the same number of people suspected of ties to terrorism also successfully purchased guns in the U.S. in 2009. The FBI provided the new numbers to the Government Accountability Office, Congress  investigative arm, and the figures were obtained by The Associated Press.The government can only prevent people from buying guns for any of 11 reasons. Convicted felons and illegal immigrants, for example, cannot buy weapons. But the terrorist watch list is different. People be stanley cup come convicted felons only after a court process and an opportun stanley ca ity to defend themselves. The watch list is secret and generated at the government s discretion.

  AP  WASHINGTON - None of the three commuter jets that flew too close together near Washington was ever on course to collide head-on with the others, federal officials said Thursday.During a news conference, U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood strongly disputed media reports characterizing the incident as a near-miss. At no point were the three aircraft on a head-to- stanley mug head course. They were not on a collision cour stanley cup se,  said Michael Huerta, administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration.The incident happened Tuesday because of a miscommunicat stanley ca ion between a manager at Potomac Consolidated Terminal Radar Approach Control and two traffic management coordinators at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, Huerta said. Officials are investigating exactly what happened. The exact nature of the miscommunication was not immediately known.Traffic controllers had to redirect the planes because of bad weather developing south of the airport. Both LaHood and Huerta praised the work of air traffic controllers to quickly set the planes on another path once they learned they were too close together. Huerta said the planes were on different headings at different altitudes and thus never would have crashed.        When asked by a reporter, LaHood refused to discuss what may have happened if the planes had not been diverted by the air traffic controller.The Washington Post reported the three planes were operated by US Airways and were carrying 192 passengers and crew members.

 Like  stanley cup nz graphene, quantum computing is an exciting but endlessly e stanley cup lusive technological promise. One of the reasons鈥攁mong many鈥攖hat quantum computers aren ;t exactly a reality yet is that we haven ;t been able to effectively spot errors in quantum computations. Not until now, anyway.     What   Wrong With Quantum Computing  A team of physicists just demonstrated the ability to spot and correct errors during the storage of quantum states in a diamond. Traditionally, errors in quantum states have been i stanley cup mpossible to correct, because even an act as simple as observing them changes their value; however, scientists have finally made a previously theoretical workaround a reality. PhysOrg explains the process of entanglement: This is the counterintuitive phenomenon that quantum systems can become so strongly connected that they can no longer be described separately. By encoding the quantum state in an entangled state of multiple quantum bits it is possible to compare the states of the quantum bits to detect errors, without measuring or disturbing the encoded quantum state itself. Boom! This opens the door to more stable, long-lived quantum states and, in turn, a quantum computer that actually works. Scientists were even able to demonstrate this error correction method at room temperature, which could mean that said quantum computer wouldn ;t need to be kept in deep freeze to work properly.

 That suspiciously cheap apartment you just moved into  Turns out t stanley cup o be right next to a deafening hourly commuter train鈥攁nd since you signed a one year lease, you ;re looking at either twelve months wearing noise cancelling headphones. Or desperately hoping Rudolf Stefanich   Sono stanley cup  noise cancelling window device comes to fruition. We ;ve probably all seen those vibrating devices that can turn flat surfaces like tab stanley cups uk les or windows into speakers. Well, Stefanich takes that idea one step further with the Sono. Noise cancelling headphones feature tiny microphones that can pick up and cancel out ambient sounds, and that   exactly what the Sono would do. Except that it would counter-vibrate the window it was stuck to, turning it into a giant noise-cancelling speaker that silences any sound coming from outside. And while Stefanich   proposed device is only just a finalist for a James Dyson Award at this point, there   no reason to believe the technology and approach wouldn ;t work as intended. Furthermore, it   reasonable to say that eventually, the electronics in the Sono could be integrated into window frames directly鈥攖aking soundproofing to a whole new level.

Yeah, actually, I did,  Murkoff said.  I d had a couple of drinks, a couple of times a week . . . I find out I m six weeks pregnant, and then I pick up a book that says, you know, alcohol is poison.  You know, so clearly, I felt I had a lot to worry about.  And worry, I did!      Kyzf Documents Link U.S. Anthrax Scientist to Terrorism Warning
 NASA has published an incredible photo that shows a far-flung trio of primitive galaxies nestled inside an enormous blob of primordial gas nearly 13 billion light-years from Earth. What   amazing about this is that you are looking at something being created in the Cosmic Dawn, the period when the universe was first bathed in starlight.     Those are the words of Richard Ellis of the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena: This exceedingly rare triple system, seen when the universe was only 800 million years old [which is cosmic terms is the equivalent to the first 3.8 years of our lives], provides important insights into the earliest stages of  stanley tumbler galaxy formation during a period known as cosmic dawn, ; when the universe was first bathed in starlight. Back in 2009, astronomers only could see one ball of hot gas. But now, combining images from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array telescope in Chile and  stanley quencher NASA   Hubble and Spitzer space telescopes, they have been able to see its true form.
