5 Medical Technologies That Will Change Healthcare Forever

No one would ever suggest that health care is something that ever remains static. Most people do agree with the assessment that the world of health care is one commonly associated with innovation and research. The one error many people do commit is they assume that the innovations are only in the world of medicine and pharmaceuticals. This assessment is not accurate one. There are other areas of the health care field that are consistently innovating. One such area would be the one related to medical technology.

Medical technology has grown enormously in recent years. Among the more interesting areas in which it has grown has been that of medical records. Today, many doctors are able to keep track of electronic medical records and do so in an extremely effective manner. The doctors are not even the main beneficiaries of these innovations. Of course, it would be the patients who benefit the most thanks to the better systems created through electronic record databases.

Other unique technological innovations and inventions are emerging on the health care front. For those interested in what these innovations may be, here are the top five.

#1. 3-D Printing. 3-D Printing might seem like a very odd inclusion on a list of revolutionary medical technology devices. Its presence should not be looked at in a dismissive manner since there are quite a number of practical uses for this type of printing. For example, 95% of all modern hearing aids are created through the process of 3-D Printing. Research shows that partial bioorgan tissue printing might be a very real possibility in the future. One of the great benefits of this or any other type of medical technology is great innovations are built on past successes.

#2. Brain-Computer Interfaces. Brain-Computer Interfaces might very well bring forth the long sought after solution to a number of hurdles paraplegics frequently have to face. The original, earlier versions of this technology were designed to use brain signals to help move a cursor across a computer screen. Today, there is work being performed on these systems to connect them to movement in robotic limbs or even parallelized limbs. Certainly, it is going to take a great deal of time for technology such as this to be perfected but the time it takes make be far less than initially anticipated.

#3. Robotics. Robotics are not exactly anything that can be considered completely new. Robotic technology has been around for decades and they continue to increase in sophistication and effectiveness. Robotics are going to be used in the health care field in scores of different ways. Robots are going to be used in service sectors as they taken over many automated tasks. On a higher level, robotic exoskeletons may be employed in the treatment of patients who are not able to walk on their own accord. The truth is robots can likely be used in a host of different ways and their use in the health care world will likely continue to expand.

#4. Point-of-Care Diagnostics. Diagnosing patients is not always easy and there are times when the process, however necessary, can be an invasive one. No physician wants a patient to suffer from any invasive treatments, but this can be unavoidable. With the advent of new Point-of-Care Diagnostics, there might be a new hand-held medical technology in the form of electronic devices capable of performing a simply diagnosis of all manner of problems. The device might not even be needed in a hospital. Those who have such a device their home could engage it to give a basic diagnoses right from their residence.

#5. Artificial Intelligence. The notion of self-aware technology is still many years away in the future, but early prototypes of machines and technology capable of offering reliable diagnostic tools to doctors based on information stored in their mechanical brain are proving to be quite helpful.

The world of medical technology is always going to be an evolving and innovating one. This is certainly a good thing. These unique innovations are what contribute to the overall incredible improvements people will experience in the health care they are offered.

The Japanese Managed To Move Objects Levitated By Sound Waves

Levitated By Sound Waves -3
Japanese scientists have developed a fascinating device to hold various objects levitating using ultrasound; And make them move in the air!. Scientists from the University of Tokyo have recently developed a device for moving small objects to in the air particles.

The technique is not new since scientists have already succeeded in floating drops of water in the air using sound waves very recently. In this case, the novelty is that these particles and objects are most electronic components move with ultrasound!

In their study, Yoichi Ochiai, Takayuki Hoshi and Jun Rekimoto explained that they are handling system has two original features.

One is the direction of the ultrasound beam, which is arbitrary, as the force acting in the direction of the center is also used. The other is the principle of operation by which a standing wave generated is localized at an arbitrary position and movable in three dimensions by ultrasonic matrices and with opposite phase. They experimentally confirmed that different materials can be handled by their proposed method.

The experience of Japanese researchers is really interesting! It's crazy to see small objects like these float in the air just through sound vibrations. We would like to see whether this method can also float large objects and see them dance in the air.

Essential Tools Of the Sleuthing Trade For Part-Time PIs

So you want to be a gumshoe, huh? Hunt down leads? Learn the truth that is being kept from you? Well, it’s going to take a heckuva lot more than just your brains and your mitts  to uncover the kind of information you want to get. Being a PI is going to require some good equipment and the kind of resourcefulness that that only comes through working knowledge of what it takes to make it in the field. If you want to be a good amatuer private investagtor, here are four tools you will need to know and use every single day.
As always, use these tools responsibly and make sure you check state laws before you go all Magnum PI on someone.

1) Public Records

As a private investigator, it’s your job to uncover secrets. And there are hundreds of secrets that can be uncovered by reviewing public records. Since no government functions without a healthy bureaucracy, the feds, the state, and even cities keep records about crimes, addresses, and birth dates. The easiest way to get access to these records is through a service like Instant Checkmate LLC. For a monthly membership fee, you do as many searches as you like on as many names as you have in your case file. You can find out if your target has committed crimes in the past, what their current addresses are, and even if they are a registered sex offender.

2) GPS Data Logger

Sometimes, where somebody is actually going is a whole lot different than where they say they’re going. If you want to find out someone’s true location, the most important tool in your arsenal is a GPS Data Logger. All you have to do is stick one of these babies on your target’s car, and it gives you information on where they travel, how fast they drive, and how long they stay at certain locations. It’s like trailing them wherever they go, except you save a whole lot on gas.

3) Video Camera and Audio Recorder

They might not be cutting edge, but that doesn’t mean they’re any less essential. If you have a conversation with someone you’re investigating, you’re going to want to make sure you have it on tape. If you’re on stakeout and your target makes an appearance, you will want to make sure you have proof. All the confessing and incriminating actions in the world won’t matter if you aren’t able to provide evidence to back up your claims.

4) Bionic Ear

Your target is spilling the beans a block away, completely cracking your case and giving you all the information you need. But how do you listen in without tipping them off to your eavesdropping? The easiest way is to use a bionic ear. This is a device that works like binoculars for your ears, allowing you to hear things from a great distance. You just point the bionic ear at what you want to hear, and it’s as if they are right next to you.

Google buys Nest for $ 3.2 billion

Nest
Google announced yesterday a major acquisition of the company Nest, aged just three and a half years. It quickly earned a great name in the field of automation with smoke detectors and thermostats smarter, noted for their very worked and sober design. The Mountain View Company has clearly targets the home automation market. She just takes over the specialist Nest for $ 3.2 billion.

Nest is not well known in Europe because its products are mainly sold on American soil. It is produced in special design and worked oriented temperature management or smoke detection. The company has relationships with Apple and hence Google's acquisition thus raises many questions. It was created by two former Cupertino Matt Rogers and Tony Fadell, the latter being also the main designer of the iPod.

Fadell said the acquisition was a great opportunity to Nest and the whole operation would remain the same. The support will be provided, the products continue to be sold and applications for iOS and Android will evolve again. Nothing has yet been said about the Apple Stores, the Nest (thermostat) being officially sold there. Hence we can conclude Nest will therefore continue its activity and organization will be broadly unchanged. In an interview with The Verge, Tony Fadell says that despite a desire to remain independent, the Google offering was simply irresistible in this circumstance. Cofounder further explains that Google has really understood the vision of Nest on its products and that this was a crucial point.

But the question that remains is to actually know what Google intends to do business acquired from reinforcements billion. Rumored that; Google is just working on a project of smart thermostat. It is therefore possible that Mountain View has sought to directly acquire expertise in this area to enrich its own projects, or rather from an existing database and then integrate it with his vision. It is difficult predict that present how products and technologies Nest Google will merge. One can imagine such a scale of Android devices with new possibilities of interaction.

In addition, Google could like his voice recognition to further enhance ease of use. Finally, whether the Nest or the smoke detector, it is very likely a first step towards a broader vision of smart home. However, even if Nest has met with success, the theme of the connected home is not so easy to approach, even if the ESC has yet proven this year that he always so interested. Google’s initiatives in the field, however, have never marked the spirits and all disappeared.

This is particularly true of its Android Home initiative and PowerMeter service, which allowed monitoring the energy consumption of a home. This time, the firm thus enters the field through the front door. Finally , note that the conditions of use of products Nest will not change until further notice. As confirmed to The Verge, those currently in place will remain and there is no plan to change. In addition, the data will be managed by Nest in her lap and will not be mixed with those of other Google services.

These touch screens have a great disadvantage since they are put to constant work all the time. These touch screens should be handled with additional care. There’s no software that takes care of your touch screen. Here are some of the tips to protect the touch screen displays.

Rule 1: Know about it 

First and the basic rule is that “IT’S A TOUCHSCREEN DEVICE”. And it should be handle with care. Do not keep pressing the screen like you handle any keypad in a mobile. Touchscreen mobiles should handle in very clean manner else it will be damaged by your rough usage.

Rule 2: Know where not to keep your devices 

You all know that Touch screens are highly sensitive to your touch. So never leave it in the open where dusts settle along the phone or do not leave your screen facing the ground. Do not keep it in your back pocket. In case of girls do not let them rot in your handbag where all the accessories mingle with it and make scratches on your screen. Don’t let it under the sunlight. It hates sunbath.

Rule 3: Accessories for your mobile 

Buy scratch guards and place them over your screen and then use them. Replace your scratch guard at least once in 6 months. Providing these sorts of accessories will make your device to go for a longer run and your device will be prevented from getting damaged. I’m not sure that it will protect your device from all sorts of damages. But, it acts as a preliminary protection for your devices from getting damages.

Rule 4: Clean your screen 

Do not put force while cleaning the screen. You’re not wiping a floor. Clean with standard solutions. Do not use solutions that contain ammonia. Clean it with a small sponge or a clean white cloth is more than enough.
Rule 5: Do not do stunt performances with your phone

Don’t do any sort of stunt performances with your touch screen devices. Do not keep them on the edges of tables. Do not drop it from heights. You might have watched the “Sony Xperia’s Ad” on TV. Yup it’s true that they are water proof. But you don’t need to prove it by doing tricks like those. Proofing is for only protection and it is not for doing such kinds of tricks and all.

Rule 6: Keep it away from the usage of pets and Toddlers 

You all might know about this rule. So there’s nothing I should insist. If you were allowing your pets to roll over your touch screen gadgets, then you would have to deserve for that. Your pets would make scratches over the screen or they might break the screen which in result cause damage of your device.

Create a Logo that Stands Out

A logo is a symbol that will represent your company for many years to come. That is why careful thought and effort must be put into the design process. This article outlines some of the most pertinent points for what makes a strong logo so that you can create the best logo possible.
Simplicity
Remembering not to overcomplicate your logo is so important. It should be a summary of your company description and core values. It need not feature lots of intricate patterns or an elaborate image in order to try and make it look interesting. Think of the logo as the ‘elevator pitch’ to your prospective customers and business partners. You only have a short time, and in the logos case a small amount of space, in order to communicate your message effectively. This is why you have to think simplistically when you are sketching out ideas. The tendency to overcomplicate can be very tempting but trying to keep things simple is always the way forward. Some of the best logos have been the simplest ones; think about Nike, Apple, and McDonald’s for example. These have one central image and have all been able to make their mark.
Engaging your Potential Customers
Your design must captivate the target audience. Engaging the consumer when there is so much that can potentially distract them is a tricky task. However, creating a logo which carries meaning and an effective message is one way you can do so. Think about using the elements of your design cleverly to create visual puns or hidden meanings that can be easily discovered with a short look. Obviously, if your logo is too abstract you will find yourself losing your customer’s interest and diluting the message of your brand. Therefore keeping this simple and stimulating will help the logo to stand out and give it more versatility in how it is incorporated into marketing materials. Remember your logo design is part of the communications strategy and must tie in no matter what media it is on.
Making Your Logo Future-proof
The longevity of a logo is crucial in the design process. Thinking of a design that will still look modern and fresh ten of twenty years from now is something a logo designer must think about. This is why it is advisable to stay away from trends within the logo industry. Even though these may look good now, just like most things in fashion, they are in one minute and out the next. For example logos that are purely a typeface are very good for standing the test of time, for example IBM. On the other hand, when you start playing around with certain effects such as gradients and drop shadows, this may begin to look unprofessional.
Always Rely on Vector
You may want to experiment with the different effects and illustrations you have on your logo but the reality is, the end result may not be all that. Crisp shapes and lines that are filled with one or two colours is the perfect way of creating your memorable logo. Think about experimenting with vector based designs as this will give you the best chance of getting the right contrast and balance. It will also enable the quality of the graphic to be maintained when you change the scale. 
Keep it Relevant
An eye- catching logo is fantastic but it needs to be relevant. The design must captivate the essentials of what you are selling or offering to the customer.
Originality is Key
The premise that your company needs to be easy to identify by the logo is one that is constantly mentioned in the logo design industry. That is because many brands seem to copy trends and piggyback off the other original designs. This does absolutely nothing for making your brand and company image distinctive and memorable.

This is again the Asian continent comes this robotic innovation should be a scientific and technological advance among the most notable of years. Thus, if the Chinese were able to introduce a nanorobot inside a human body in September 2013, in South Korea these robots bacteria are capable of treating cancer has emerged, in Chonnam National University.

The scientific team behind this scientific discovery announced success in eliminating tumors in animals through the use of robots designed based on bacteria. However, a small precision is needed; these nano robots, also called bacteriabots are composed of genetically modified bacteria and microscopic structures and filled with anti- cancer drug solutions. Thus, studies in laboratory animals have shown that harmless bacteria component of nanorobots have “attacked “the infected cells, targeting priority.

In addition, through immune histo chemistry performed a few days after injection of genetically modified bacteria, the researchers found that the tumors were directly targeted by bacteribots; once it arrived in the vicinity of the tumor cell, these free the anti cancer drug solutions that spread at an impressive rate, neutralizing the tumor quickly.

 Finally, Park Jong- Oh, who participated in these experiments within the team from the University of Chonnam, “This research is important for the development of a new biomedical nanorobot and a vector for administration of active drugs that can overcome the limitations of current methods of diagnosis and treatment of cancers.

Our goal is to develop medical micro-robots or nanorobots capable of diagnosing and treating a large number of difficult to cure diseases, building on the convergence of medicine and technology.

Asus Transformer Book Duet TD300
The Asus Transformer Book Duet TD300 is with a new concept. That is with only one processor Android and Windows 8.1 are performed and it can be interchanged just by pressing a button. A data exchange between the operating systems is provided. As the first “quad- mode device “means the Asus Transformer Book Duet TD300.

It comes with a 13.3- inch display with full HD resolution works on both Windows 8.1 and Android 4.4 Tablet in each case as well as a notebook. Not two separate computer solutions for use, but both operating systems are running on an Intel CPU with Haswell - engineering - but come unlike past - offered by Asus. Unlike the media suspects in advance, Windows, and run Android not parallel through virtualization.

Rather, the state of the operating system freezes when switching and stored on the SSD, then just run the other OS. For a change there is a function key, it takes just four seconds, according to Asus. Both operating systems can access a shared folder so that data between Windows and Android can be exchanged. The entire procedures have Asus and Intel jointly developed and according to Asus patented.

In principle, the solution is hardly surprising, since Android for years been running on x86 CPUs, Intel had first adapted it for Atom Smartphones. The fact that the Google OS will run on the large core processors, is technically possible for some time. Whether, as suggested in unconfirmed reports, dispute with Microsoft that has so far prevented, is an outstanding issue.

Anyway, Intel kept its Android version only very slow in comparison Atom SoCs ago. As with the Atom Convertible Tablet T100 is in the part of the TD300 only a very meager when compared to notebooks equipped with a 128 GB SSD and a Micro SD slot. The keyboard dock has an additional 1 TB hard drive, ports for USB 2.0, 3.0 and HDMI as well as a jack for Gigabit Ethernet.

The graphic is provided by the HD Graphics core in the processor, main memory consists of 4 GB DDR3L. It can spark the device after 802.11ac wireless, Bluetooth 4.0 EDR and LTE - but probably not in all trim levels. As with the new Asus Zenfones are so far only to the minimum price of $ 599 plus tax, which likewise possible Core i7 processor along with LTE module is unlikely to be installed.

Acer Liquid Z5 Dual Sim Smartphone in CES 2014


Acer Liquid Z5
Acer has unveiled the Liquid Z5 in CES 2014 at Las Vegas. Liquid Z5 is an Android device which can accommodate two sim cards with button for selectable operating mode. The Liquid Z5 is one of the entry-level Smartphone. A mere 4 GB of internal memory is there.

There is a slot for micro - SD cards up to 32 GB. Also there is a RAM of about 512 MB comparatively lesser memory. The 5- inch screen also has a resolution of 854 x 480 pixels and is not stable perspective. The color display seemed sufficient for this.

Dimensions and weight are according to Acer at 145.5 x 73.5 x 8.8 mm and 147 grams. The processor is of unknown type and has two cores, each with 1.3 GHz. In addition, Acer plans to ship the device to Europe with two SIM card slots. The camera has only 5 megapixels, but is more precise but it offer comparatively light-sensitive pixels.

In addition, the optics allows plenty of light through (f/2.4). Acer supplies the Z5 with Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. For this model there won’t be any security updates or new features. The manufacturer thus saving costs, the buyer then has left behind.

For relatively low-cost Android Smartphones, manufacturers won’t give much importance for any updates. Acer had offers several modes that can facilitate the operation, or restrict with the help of Android. For children use there is a special child mode with the limited access to a few apps.

But there is also a mode for seniors, which provides about extra large buttons. Switching between the modes can also be secured with a password. Acer will release this at the end of January 2014 for a price of around 170 Euros.

How To Protect Yourself From Online Fraud


Although making purchases online is very convenient, it is only reasonable that some consumers might be reluctant to carry out certain transactions online, particularly when personal or financial information is involved. After all, it was only very recently that Malaysian police took action against a network of online scammers who illegally obtained more than $1 million from their victims in Malaysia and Taiwan.
Still, buying goods online is generally safe, and research carried out by Rakuten showed that 71 per cent of Malaysian online shoppers are satisfied with their purchases. But whether you are buying music, books, cars, or furniture, it pays to keep the following advice in mind in order to protect yourself from online fraud.

Protect your computer

The first thing you can do to reduce the chances of experiencing online fraud is keeping your computer or internet-enabled device up to date with the latest security software. Keep in mind that malicious software can access confidential information you may have stored in your device and make it accessible to hackers. Don't only install an anti-virus, but download any updates and scan your computer regularly. Also, don't rely on anti-virus only, but also install anti-spyware software for enhanced protection.

Protect your accounts with passwords

Don't make things too easy for scammers or hackers and make sure to protect all your accounts (e-mail, social networks, online banking, etc.) with strong passwords. A strong password contains a combination of numbers, uppercase and lowercase letters, and symbols. Moreover, a strong password should have at least 8 characters and not form a complete word or anything that is relatively easy to guess, such as your name or date of birth.

...and protect your passwords too

Password protection software, also known as password managers, can securely store all your passwords (as they should be different for each site) and encrypt them. Should anyone attempt to break into your accounts, this secure software will launch a two-layer authentication process or even fingerprint recognition, so that you and only you have access to your passwords.

How secure is a website?

Before you buy online, check that the website's address starts with 'https' instead of just 'http'. The 's' stands for 'secure' and tells you that the website has implemented trusted security systems. Also, check the website address for a padlock icon, which should be locked. Clicking on that icon will display what is known as a security certificate, so check the certificate to see if the company name that appears matches that of the site.

Managing your payments online

Whenever possible, avoid purchasing goods using a money transfer or any direct banking transaction where your financial details may be exposed. Nowadays, the vast majority of companies use payment gateways which allow the acceptance of PayPal or are linked with a secure payment processor who handles the online transactions. The advantage of using such methods is that the merchant will receive payment without ever having access to your bank details.
Being a victim of online fraud is a valid concern, so don't take chances when it comes to the security of your personal information. Make sure to follow the advice mentioned above and remember that you can never be too careful.

First leaked screenshots of forth coming Windows 8.1 Update 1


Windows 8.1 Update 1

Windows 8.1 Update 1

Windows 8.1 Update 1
In 2014 and 2015; Windows users can look forward for the three major updates to their operating system. The smallest is going to happen in April for Windows 8.1 which is free according to the sources, which probably goes by the name "Windows 8.1 Update 1" or " Windows 8.1 2014 Update".

So far it is only known this much and there will be hardly visible innovations it seems. But Microsoft aims to improve system performance and provide more stability. Windows 8.1 Update 1 is therefore likely to closely resemble the previous service packs.

Already screenshots of a preliminary version of the update are leaked on the net. However, they show no changes compared to Windows 8.1. Only the version number of Internet Explorer 11 has increased slightly. According to the rumor, Microsoft will distribute this pre-release version from the third week of January for the first time to the selected partners.

Shortly thereafter, is thus to be expected the first leaks of the pre-release version. According to another insider, the final output of the update is the end of March then on 1 April 2014 it will be freely available for all users to download - just in the time of Microsoft's developer conference this year.

10Gbps USB3.1 demonstrated at CES 2014



10Gbps USB3.1
The current USB 3.1 interface allows you to charge devices as well as a faster data transfer, or the both. At the consumer electronics trade show CES 2014 they have demonstrated the capabilities of the USB 3.1 adopted the USB 3.1 standards by Rave Jeff Craft, president of the USB Implementers Forum.

This provides 10 Gb / s double the USB 3.0 speed and enables the Power Delivery to charge devices with up to 100 watts - under certain conditions. The first demonstration shows a fitted with two SSDs PC (one per PCIe and one USB 3.1), which achieved a reading rate of around 1,000 MB per second, according to the ATTO Disk Benchmark, thanks to the gross data rate of 10 instead of 5 Gigabit per second, and only 3 percent protocol overhead instead of the previous 20 The latter is made possible by the 128b-/132b- instead of the previous 8b/10b encoding, thus a loss of 4 bit per 132 bits.

A special FPGA chip in the hub allows power delivery and also to connect a monitor at the same time. Another function that supported by USB 3.1 is the Power Delivery in the form of six profiles ( 0-5), who can afford each 10, 18, 36, 60 and 100 watts.

Beyond 36 Watt Micro- USB connectors are not provided, only the large connector of type A and B should engage. The devices can negotiate their skills before. This corresponds to what the proprietary devices support already, but just in a standardized form. Jeff Rave Crafts presentation included a printer connected to a hub monitor and a notebook from which a trailer was transferred to the display. USB 3.1 is not fluent in HDCP, which are protected under other Blu-rays. Since the standard has already been adopted, Rave Craft expects the first products at the end of 2014 to be available in the market.

How to share files securely?
Wanna share your business files or any sort of personal files in a secure manner? Worried someone might pirate it from you. Here are some tips to share your files in a secure manner.

This key will be present at the receiver who is ready to receive the information. His/her key alone can demodulate the message and the original information is transferred in a secure manner. When a third party tries to interpret it, it either becomes unreadable or either destroyed. There are several types of encryption techniques are available in the internet which allows you to transmit your files more securely by encrypting files by using those encryption algorithm.

How to Make Your Facebook Account Crime-Proof

The Internet is rife with hackers and fraudsters, and to these cybercrooks, no target is juicer or more tempting than Facebook. With over a billion active users, Facebook provides plenty of opportunities for unscrupulous scammers to do their dirty work — whether it's stealing passwords, identities, or money and goods. Fortunately, there are a few easy ways that Facebook users can protect themselves from people who can do serious harm to your financial life.
If you want to crime-proof your Facebook account, just follow these four simple steps.

1) Choose A Strong Password

Some scammers commit cyber identity theft by hacking into your account and impersonating you to your online friends. Online security starts with a secure password. Believe it or not, many hackers are able to get your password and log in into accounts simply by making an educated guess. But if you follow a few simple principles, you can make a password that is virtually hacker proof.
  • Choose a password that is eight characters long
  • Use a mix of numbers and special characters ( like%,&,*and #)
  • Pick a password that is easy for you to remember
  • Change your password twice a year

2) Remove The Criminals From Your Friends List

You can end potential problems before they start by removing troublemakers from your friends list. By blocking criminals, you will deny them access to your posts, and the personal information that is meant for just your friends and family. The easiest way to tell if someone will commit a crime is if they have repeatedly been arrested and convicted in the past. You can run every name on your friends list through a website like CheckMate.com. Simply by searching for someone’s first and last name, you can pull public records and see if any of your Facebook friends have been convicted of a crime in the past.

3) Don’t Post When You’re On Vacation

Burglars regularly comb social media sites looking for potential targets. When someone reveals that they are out of town and their home is empty, that gives thieves a tip of who to rob next. The easiest way to avoid this problem is to simply avoid revealing your vacation plans until you have returned. It’s much safer to wait until you get home to share photos and stories of your trip.
If you absolutely must tell people on Facebook about the fabulous time you’re having, you could always use Facebook’s custom privacy feature.  You can choose to share your messages only with your most trusted friends and family members, and leave your vacation posts hidden from the rest of your friends list.

4) Beware Of Phishing Emails

Another common way crooks will retrieve your Facebook password information is through phishing emails. You might receive a message asking you to provide your email address and password for some reason, and the hacker will then use that info to access your account. Remember, Facebook will never send you your password as an attachment, ask you for your account password via email, or ask for your social security information.

NASA unveils the first robot Super Ball Bot for landing on Titan, a moon of Saturn



Super Ball Bot
Super Ball Bot-1

NASA multiplies space exploration and it has unveiled a new kind of robot that will be able to lie on the floor of Titan, Saturn's moon, thanks to its particularly amazing abilities. Super Ball Bot is the new prototype rover designed by NASA. Whose main purpose will be to successfully land on Titan, one of Saturn's moons. Indeed, the agency is not limited only to missions lunar and Martian exploration but also wants to gather data about other stellar objects in our solar system.

In this case, the observation of Titan is interesting since the satellite has many features common to Earth, even if it is more akin to a primitive version of our planet. One of the main similarities is the climate on the surface of Titan; since the winds are present and form dunes, hills and cliffs. Quite surprising it that also has seasonal changes as such of Earth. Super Ball Bot represents the first fruits of this exploration mission. And he also has very special characteristics: it is completely designed with only limps.

As we can see from the picture above, the rover is able to move in a rather strange way since it gives the impression of sagging then recover while going forward. Super Ball Bot actually works on the principle of tensegrity. Tensegrity is an architectural principle in which the ability of a structure to stabilize the forces of tension and compression distributed therein and will be balanced.

Structures established by the tensegrity are stabilized, not by the strength of their individual components, but the distribution and balance of mechanical stresses in the entire structure. Main advantage is its less weight while Curiosity weighs nearly a ton (900kg), this robot will be much lighter and easier landing on Titan. However there are still some challenges to control its management and its movements.

NASA explained that if this prototype was validated, it could then launch an exploratory mission and release large number of these robots explorers on the surface of Titan. In any case, it is exciting to see that the U.S. space agency is exploring many opportunities to learn about our solar system. We have to wait for the mission success and to learn more about Titan.

Intel announces a “Dual OS" project with Windows and Android



Dual OS
Intel has made an announcement about its Dual OS project with Android and Windows in the CES happened in Las Vegas. According to sources, the founder is trying to unite PC manufacturers around the idea of devices capable of running Windows and Android simultaneously.

It is not similar to that of the dual boot system and it is entirely different from that; that is it is run on the two of the same session. Already virtualisers did this in Windows and OS X. This would called as “Dual OS" internal project, however, this could not be achieved without the help and especially without the consent of Microsoft nor Google.

And everyone says one source, would have reservations about this project. It is better for the one as for the other, that its OS is the only feature on a device. The subject is certainly even more worrying for Microsoft and Google. PC sales, where Windows is still a majority, are in steady decline, without clearing the horizon. And on the front of mobile, Android and iOS leave little room for Windows Phone.

Microsoft certainly has leverage to try to put in the right way PC makers tempted by the idea of Intel. But we also remember the rumors that spoke of wanting to install Microsoft Windows Phone at the same time on Android Smartphones.

Intel, for its part, sees the PC market crumble and the founder has missed the mobile in favor of ARM. Today, it is very soft in the race and processors are capable of running Android. With this project “Dual OS” adequate chips and a mechanism for both OS work together in a practical way, the depth could provide a unique solution for manufacturers.

Skiing holidays are a great activity-based break that all of the family enjoy. Whether you have younger children in your party, or complete novices to the slopes, skiing can be a fun thing to do which everyone can take part in. Skiing is a great way for groups to bond together, no matter what their skill level is, and the experience can be much more enjoyable if you have the latest equipment to try out when you reach the pistes. Gadgets don’t make for a great skiing holiday but they can make your getaway all the more enjoyable. So, what are the latest gizmos and devices that established skiers are taking with them this winter?

Heated Ski Gloves – About £40

Wearing super warm gloves is nothing new in the world of skiing. Keeping the wind out when you race down the slopes is nigh on essential so that you don’t get cold. You also want to keep snow out should you fall over. However, the latest trend is for heated ski gloves that not only keep your hands warm but allow you to continue to use touch screen technology without having to remove them. So, if you want to check the latest weather report on your smart phone or book a table with your tablet device whilst on the ski-chair, then heated ski gloves are the gadget for you.

DryGuy Boot And Glove Dryer – About £35

These devices sort out wet ski wear a lot quicker than conventional systems. They are designed to place your boots and gloves right over so that they dry from the inside out. Remember that you can use the gadget to warm your foot and hand wear in the morning, too. So, set it at breakfast time ready for when you first hit the slopes in the morning session.

Mobile Phone Insulator – About £18

These devices are more than just carry bags that help prevent your phone from becoming knocked if you should fall over. They help to keep your device warm which means that the battery life is extended. Many smart phones lose battery life at astonishing rates, particularly in cold conditions. Good insulators will also protect your phone from snow which can be a problem, especially if it melts into water inside your jacket.

Talus Pro Ski Mask – About £75

These are the latest in breathing technology for skiers. The product is designed to augment the air temperature of inhaled breaths.

Not only will it and to keep your face warm and dry, but will help you to see where you are going better.

Helmets With Build In Headphones – About £50

Just because you are skiing doesn’t mean that you should not be able to listen to your MP3 player or take a call for that matter. Head gear has always been an important part of skiing, not to mention fashion. However, for the latest trend go for a ski helmet that also doubles as a set of headphones from a cool ski-equipment manufacturer such as Red.
