The Laser is one of the most popular single-handed dinghies in the world. By 2007, the number of boats produced exceeded 190,000. A commonly cited reason for its popularity is that it is robust and simple to rig and sail.

Laser thermal keratoplasty (LTK) is a no-touch thermal keratoplasty performed with a Holmium laser, while conductive keratoplasty (CK) is thermal keratoplasty performed with a high-frequency electric probe. Thermal keratoplasty can ... be used to improve presbyopia or reading vision after age 40.

The new Palomar Lux1540 Fractional(TM) Laser Handpiece uses patented fractional technology to create precisely defined zones of elevated temperature within the tissue. By varying treatment parameters, diverse effects can be induced in these zones with minimal damage to the surrounding tissue. The advantage of such a device is its ability to create a pattern of isolated columns of coagulation in the epidermis and dermis, without damage to the tissue surrounding the columns. Location, shape and dimensions of these columns can be accurately tuned to achieve the desired clinical effect.

The design of the Laser engine followed an intensive study of all types of full size 4-stroke engines and model engines. Since the first Laser ran in 1983 the design has been refined with continuous development. New materials, processes and machining techniques have become available and improved the engine further.

Laser usage is ... related to kitten huffing. Often, "hardcore" huffers will use lasers to enhance the huffing "experience", unaware of the consequences. In rare cases, huffing addicts may decide to toss the kitten aside and switch entirely to lasers. Side effects of laser huffing often include coughing, sore throat, nausea, instantaneous blindness, psychosis, coma, slight nasal discharge, and death.

The Laboratory for Advanced Software Engineering Research (LASER) is a research lab in the Department of Computer Science at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. LASER is dedicated to investigating techniques for reducing software development and maintenance costs while simultaneously improving the quality of the systems produced. LASER is aggressively attacking the problem of assuring the quality of software. Modern systems are increasingly dependent upon software which is becoming increasingly complex. The growing size of such systems, and their increasing reliance upon such features as concurrency and distribution creates new concerns and challenges.
