I'm sort of speechless - well I would be if I could find the words Telstar Logistics was unable to attend Burning Man this year, alas -- the launch of our new startup kept us pretty busy around the office.

The so-called 'speed of gravity' has been the source of some controversy over the years. The anti-relativity fraternity maintains that the speed of gravity must be infinite, i.e., that gravity acts instantaneously over any distance. Relativists, on the other hand, maintain that no influence propagates faster than the speed of light and that gravity is no exception. This Relativity 4 Engineers article gives a brief overview of how the 'controversy' is resolved.

Engineers at Spinal USA , a manufacturer and distributor of advanced surgical spinal products in Flowood, MS, have designed spinal implants called vertebral body replacement (VBR) devices. Because surgeons insert these implants into patients’ spines during spinal fusion procedures, FDA approval is required. Rather than risk the cost and time for testing physical prototypes, though, the engineers investigated whether FEA software could provide adequate test results for FDA approval.

Sound familiar? Well, the solution to all your problems just might be on the way, in the shape of... the Mercedes DiesOtto engine !

Originally, it was defined as a light, fast sailing vessel used by the Dutch navy to pursue pirates and other transgressors around and into the shallow waters of the Low Countries, but later it came to be used to transport important persons.
