Google Bought the Company Travel

Google bought the company's desire travel ITA Software worth USD700 million, finally received approval from the U.S. government, in this case the Department of Justice. This purchase will give Google an important role in online travel industry. Through this purchase, Google promises more choice and better way to find airline tickets online to combine technology ITA, which supports the majority of airline reservation systems United States, and popular travel sites.

However, Google must meet several conditions if it wanted to purchase a plan that actually happened. Google should allow existing customers ITA extend their contract until 2016 and ensure that new customers get the services ITA "fair, reasonable and not bound by the terms of the discriminatory".  In addition, Google is prohibited from making agreements with airlines that have the potential to limit the distribution of seats and booking information to its competitors.

Google's decision to buy ITA Software was raised fears among competitors if the company from Mountain View that will increasingly dominate the internet search engine. No doubt, the Department of Justice also provides the requirements for Google to continue to receive supervision of federal authorities to ensure that the company was not to practice monopoly.

"The government obviously wanted to keep an eye on Google. Ability to use internet search dominance to close the competition with its competitors is nothing new in the travel industry," said Thomas Barnett as a lawyer for Expedia Inc., which opposes the deal with a number of other online travel services like Travelocity, Kayak Software, and Microsoft's Bing.

Asia Space Program

50 years since the first human flight into space, countries in Asia such as China, Japan and India have started ambitious space program. China in 2003 succeeded in becoming the third country in the world to fly humans into space after the U.S. and Russia, now the world's attention to the space program seems to start directed to Asia.

In October 2010, China successfully launched the Chang'e moon satellite 2, which is an important step in the development of Chinese astronomy world. Bamboo Curtain country is also planning to build a station outside angkasanya own. "Today our country there is no plan to land a man on the moon, may also not be realized before 2020," said Wu Weiren, Chief Designer of the Chang'e project 2.

China space program was first launched in the early era of the 90s. Since then the program has increased rapidly. If China shut down the country for cooperation with other countries for their space program, unlike the case with India. "India is very different from China to the outside angkasanya program. The Beijing very close themselves from outsiders," said Isabelle Sourbes-Verger, a French expert, in response to China's space program.

New Mineral Smallest 50x450 Nanometers

NASA and researchers from the United States, South Korea and Japan have discovered a new mineral species named 'Wassonite' in meteorites found in Antarctica in December 1969. Meteorites may come from asteroids that orbit between Mars and Jupiter. Wassonite is the smallest but important mineral species, identified in meteorites is 4.5 billion years old.

The research team led by Keiko Nakamura-Messenger, scientists from NASA, the findings add to the list that contains 4500 types of minerals that have been approved by the International Mineralogical Association. "Wassonite is a mineral that is formed only of two elements, sulfur and titanium. Minerals has a unique crystal structure that has not been investigated,"said Nakamura-Messenger.

In 1969, members of the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition found nine meteorites in the Yamato Mountains, Antarctica. Then the U.S. and Japan continueddo search there and found more than 40 thousand species ,including meteorites from Mars . The researchers found Wassonite surrounded by additional minerals which are also still being investigated. Wassonite measuring less than one hundredth the width of human hair or 50x450 nanometers.

With such a small size, it is impossible to find without help Wassonite NASA's transmission electron microscope, capable of determining the composition and structure of the atom Wassonite.

Ancient Shark Found in Mining

A miner found a fossil bones of ancient shark jaw in a mine in central Kentucky. The fossil will be on display at the University of Kentucky. The fossil was found in Webster County, Kentucky, by the age of 25 years old miner named Jay Wright who worked in the mines as deep as 210 meters.

Fossil jawbone 300 million-year-old is believed to come from an ancient shark species that formerly Edestus swim in the sea, which is now its territory into regions of Kentucky. "Jeez, what is this?" Jay Wright said, when I first found the fossil.

Jerry Weisenfluh, Associate Director of the Kentucky Geological Survey in Lexington, Kentucky, says that finding fossils with large size is quite rare. The fossil is now being exhibited in building the Mines and Minerals, England.

New Species of Fish Pari Pancake

Scientists say they have discovered two new species of stingrays in the Amazon rainforest and call it a fish Pari Pancake. The nickname was taken because of its shape resembling a pancake. Fish is also a new type of rays that are found within the last 20 years in the Amazon, "says Nathan Lovejoy from the University of Toronto and Marcelo Rodrigues de Carvalho from the University of Sao Paolo.

The new species discovered by scientists is called Heliotrygon Gomesi and Heliotrygon Rosai. In addition to the pancake-like shape, the two new species of stingrays are bulky and have spines on their tails.

Most of these specimens come from areas Rio Nanay, near lquitos, Peru. The findings also add to the number of species of stingrays in tropical regions such as Mexico, West Indies and Central America. "The most important of this invention is to notice that there are many fish in the Amazon that have not been investigated and found," says Nathan Lovejoy.

Oil Companies Discovered Fossil Ankylosaurus

An oil company workers in Canada were surprised to find dinosaur fossils in northern Alberta. In fact, hundreds of years ago, the area is covered by water. "We never found dinosaur fossils in this location. Therefore, this area originally is the sea. Most of us have encountered was invertebrate species such as clams and ammonite," said curator of Alberta's Royal Tyrell Museum of Donald Henderson.

Fossils found in it a kind of Ankylosaurus, namely plant-eating dinosaur with a strong leg and a tail like a wooden bat. Ankylosaurus was thought to have found a length of 5 meters wide and 2 meters. "Simply amazing because the fossil is still in good condition. It is also a complete dinosaur fossil was first owned by the province," said Donald.

A worker found the fossil itusaat Suncor Energy itself was clean soil before work. He immediately stopped his work and providing opportunities for scientists to move the bone, and sends it to the Royal Tyrell Museum. Last important fossils found in northern Alberta is the giant reptiles called ichthyosaurs. The fossil was found near Fort McMurray, 10 years ago.

New Animal Species Found In The Sea

Scientists from Florida said that they had discovered a new animal species in the Gulf of Mexico, the United States. Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission announced that they had found Chromodoris Fentoni, a type of sea snail without a shell is commonly referred to as'nudibranch'.

Biologists find these animals after a fisherman donated specimens from the Gulf of Tarpon Springs to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and Wildlife Research Institute in St. Petersburg in 2009. Sea slug 'nudibranch' have gills and have no shell.

Sample findings Fentoni Chromodoris directly sent to the California State Polytechnic University, where verification of these animals ever documented. A curator of the Wildlife Research Institute says it's very difficult to find a species new to science.

US CENTCOM Spy on Users of Social Networking

The United States military through the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) would spy on users of social networking activities with using a false identity. CENTCOM had hired Ntrepid service, a software firm from California, to create 500 fake online identity. In a contract valued at USD 2,76 million was mentioned, Ntrepid have to provide false identities with "includes background, history, supporting details, and the existence of a consistent cyber technically, culturally, and geographically."

Fake profiles will be handled through a terminal operator and can perform communication through a standard electronic communication methods. Meanwhile, his workstation will run a VPN with an IP address that is always changing.

"This technology supports the activities of secret blogging on foreign sites for CENTCOM could anticipate the extremists and the propaganda of the enemy outside the continental U.S.," said Bill, spokesman of Central Commander (CENTCOM). Still, he insists, this operation will not run against U.S. citizens, because the action was illegal.

Natural Disasters from Supermoon

Saturday, later on some areas of the full moon of the coming of the phenomenon of super. This is not unusual because the full moon will be bigger and brighter. Some people associate this fenonema with a natural disaster, is this true?. This is directly contradicted by some scientists. This phenomenon alone will mepelihatkan months is much greater because it makes its closest approach to Earth in the last 18 years.

Scientists estimate supermoon rises in the east at sunset and will appear larger at its peak. Moon will be visible varied in size because the oval shape of the orbit, with one end close to the Earth. On Saturday, the moon will be 356.574 km away, or that is closest to Earth since March 1993.

"Usually, most people really aware of her presence," said Mr Geoff Chester of the U.S. Naval Observatory in Washington, DC. Type the full moon tends to bring a variety of high and low tide, but experts say there's nothing to worry about. Nor is there any truth to the superstition that supermoons causing natural disasters. 'There's nothing interesting will happen, "said Geoff Chester.

Toshiba factory in Japan was Closed

The impact of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan continues to cause effects to the whole world industrial components. The latest, hardware manufacturer Lenovo is very worried when Toshiba will make the closure of their factory. Toshiba has decided to shut down the factory that produces screen Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) for a while. Lenovo is using Toshiba LCD worried about component shortages products.

"All the assembly plant at Toshiba in Tokyo that makes LCDs for smartphones and other devices will be closed to repair any equipment damaged by the earthquake," said a spokeswoman for Toshiba. Toshiba become a supplier of components for industrial and mobile devices for automotive navigation. Two factories, including one that still operates contribute 5% of the global LCD market share.

Lenovo, one of the only vendors of electronic goods that worry about lack of supply of components for their products due to the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. There are many other companies that suffered the same fate, even predicted this would happen to a big company like Apple. "In the short term, this may not affect too much. But we are worried about the impact on next quarter," said the chief executive of Lenovo's Yang Yuanqing.

Mobile Phone is Not More Popular than Traditional Media

Today, more people are using mobile phones to access news. But a new study reveals, not necessarily new media will replace traditional media. Usually, what happens with the new media is that they compete to move the older media to a certain extent,
.
"But at least early in its development, mobile media did not carry away from older media, because they have separate own fans," said Professor John Dimmick from Ohio State University. The study involved 166 participants who agreed to keep diaries and write down the media that they use during the day. They note where and when they access various media technologies, including mobile media technologies such as smart phones, television, newspapers, computers, radio and others.

Participants noted whenever they access news, sports or weather content, on any technology in place and time. The team found that the legacy media such as newspapers, radio and television are still just as popular as ever.

Computers are the most popular methods to access news, with approximately 24 percent of all media sessions that occur on the desktop and 15 percent on a laptop. The use of television is about 29 percent of all media sessions. Newspapers and radio each contributed about nine percent. For example, the mobile is the preferred method for accessing news over the work, but television has led to the afternoon and evening.
