A brief history of nanotechnology
… Since the 21st century began, few emerging technologies have been so heavily promoted, funded, and debated as nanotechnology. Defined (currently) by the U.S. government as “the understanding and control of matter at the nanoscale”—a nanometer is one-billionth a meter—nanotechnology as a field and research community has received billions of funding dollars, making it one of the nation’s largest technology investments since the space race.
Yet the idea that manipulation of the material world at the near-atomic scale was possible, even within grasp, possesses a historical arc stretching far back to the height of the Cold War. From the 1950s onward, investments in physics, chemistry, and the relatively new field of materials science provided a research foundation for the eventual emergence of nanotechnology. In fact, architects of a post–Cold War national nano-research program often traced its origins back to a discrete point in time and space. …
Senate Minority Leader, Chuck Schumer, just threatened Trump in the Senate by stating: "You can mark my words on this, Mr President-elect, if you do not follow our plan of change, but continue with Rightist policies that your voters called for you to do, then you will have a very hard and difficult time in being successful in anything that you try to do."

Celebrities Demand Congress Stand Up To Trump (Video)
Those in the video are ordering Congress to oppose Trump’s “racist, sexist, anti-immigrant, anti-worker, anti-Muslim, anti-Semitic and anti-environmental policies,” and “block nominees who threaten the rights of women, the LGBT community, people of color, immigrants and the poor.”

Republican Lawmakers Revive ‘Audit the Fed’ Legislation
](link-to url of article)WASHINGTON—Congressional Republicans on Wednesday revived bills to subject the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy decisions to greater public scrutiny, proposals that didn’t get far in recent years but could face brighter prospects under the incoming Trump administration.
Fed officials meet several times a year to decide what to do with short-term interest rates and how to influence them—actions that affect the borrowing costs of households, businesses and investors across the country. The “Audit the Fed” measures would require the Government Accountability Office to examine those decisions.
The Rockettes' Red Glare
Well, what do you know! Liberals finally support the freedom of conscience -- for other liberals. That's right. The party that wants to jail, fine, punish, and bankrupt Christians with deeply-held beliefs suddenly wants the same right to bow out of events they disagree with (but without the messy lawsuits they're subjecting conservatives to). The country is getting a front-row seat to the Left's hypocrisy thanks to the election of Donald Trump. From the First Lady's dressmakers to Ivanka Trump's art collection, we've witnessed liberals dump their "tolerance-is-the-price-of-citizenship" ideology faster than you can say Inauguration 2017.
The Left's double standard was on full display over Christmas when the boss of the Radio City Rockettes, James Dolan, lamented the fact that part of his troop may be dancing at Trump's swearing in.
"Finding out that it has been decided for us that Rockettes will be performing at the presidential inauguration makes me feel embarrassed and disappointed. The women I work with are intelligent and are full of love, and the decision of performing for a man [who] stands for everything we're against is appalling. I am speaking for just myself but please know that after we found out the news, we have been performing with tears in our eyes and heavy hearts. We will not be forced! #notmypresident"
Of course, no one is forcing the Rockettes to perform -- and those who choose not to dance have been accommodated. Unfortunately, that luxury was never granted to Christians like Aaron and Melissa Klein, Barronelle Stutzman, Elaine Hugenon, Betty and Richard Odgaard, and scores more. As upset as Dolan was, imagine if his dancers' houses, businesses, reputations, and life savings were on the line. That's the reality facing Christians who want the same right to decline jobs that violate their faith. Now that the shoe is on the (Rockettes') other foot, liberals seem to have discovered the freedom of association,
