Japan Succeeded In Making The Retina

Researchers from Japan managed to make the retina of mouse embryonic stem cells. According to researchers at the RIKEN Center for Developmental Biology, Kobe, Japan, the retina is a complex biological networks that they made.

The network developed is not merely the retina, but complete with optic cup, an organ consisting of two layers of the retina and the outer layer of pigmented cells that provide nutrients and support the retina and the cells are sensitive to light. Latter cells that transmit information to the brain.

At the time of manufacture, the embryonic stem cells in a mixture of nutrients and protein. The cells develop into retinal cells. Initially, only cells develop into a series of early retinal cells, but then slowly evolved into a complete optic cup. It occurs naturally in embryonic development.

Scientists are still unable to ascertain whether this artificial retina can transmit correct information to the brain of rats. "This is what will we studied further," said the researcher. If there is no problem, scientists will switch to the manufacture of human retinal stem cells from humans as well.

If successful in human trials, the means available to safely retina transplanted to humans. "Healing for many types of blindness," scientists explained. However, still it took several years

Special Forces Attack the Somali Pirates

Special Forces Command (Kopassus), claimed to be ready to assist in the release of the crew Sinar Kudus are held hostage by Somali pirates.

"Kopassus is ready every day and have 36 people who standby not off to watch for 24 hours including the journalists we have a comfortable barracks for soldiers stand me,

Kopassus has a team of army of frogs, which can help the process of liberation of hostages, and that's not our own form, their navy, "said the commander of Kopassus.

Kopassus is always ready to be assigned by the Indonesian government in the release of 20 crew members who had been held hostage by Somali pirates.

Laptop from a Fighter Jet Material

What will happen to materials commonly used to make fighter jets used for a laptop? Samsung managed to make it happen. Samsung Electronics Indonesia introduced the Notebook Series 9, which claimed to use a material called Duralumin used to make fighter jets.

Duralumin material is 2 times stronger than regular aluminum. However, this material is much lighter than the material ever used for this notebook. Notebook Series 9 has a weight of 1.31 kg with a thickness of only 0.64 inches. With 13-inch screen size, no one if the notebook is in addition to light also comes with unique design and very elegant with a degree angle that is not broken.

Samsung which is known as the number one manufacturer of LCD panels in the world, also embedded in laptops that 75 percent of its components are produced by Samsung. The screen uses superkontras ratio (1300:1) who have lived 16 million colors, this does not include HD-LED Backlight technology Superbright Plus.

"In notebooks Series 9, Samsung launches three advantages offered, namely brightnes, Faster, and Longer. To brightnes, we are a leader in the production of LCD panels ensure the laptop is far more light than similar products," he said.

While faster, using a technology called FastStar, Felix said that the Series 9 comes with a 60 percent boting much faster. Well, for longer, in the portable computer is two times the battery resistance is much more durable than a laptop on the market.

"Because we have the technology capable of performing 1,000 times cyling or two times more than existing batteries. One time cyling own means, each of which was used until the battery runs out then dicash again," he said. This laptop uses an Intel Core i7 second generation. Memory and 126GB Solid State Drive as media storage. Because the level of that rivals phones to be thin MacBook Air, as well as an aerodynamic design with elegant touches.

Chrome OS for the Tablet

Google changed the concept of cloud-based operating system, OS Chrome, which may be embedded in the tablet. This is somewhat surprising, because the OS Chrome originally destined for notebooks. "Yes we are seeking open-source operating system will work for the tablet, but we can not announce it in the near future, Chrome OS designed from scratch to work in various form factors. To see the different partners to build various types of devices based on the Chrome OS, but to release our initial target it to notebooks, "explained a spokesman from google.

This is somewhat confusing to some experts, the article Google Android Honyecomb commitment to present as a special operating system for tablets. There is some speculation mentioned, Google also may plan to adopt a hybrid approach to the tablet, allowing users to boot and switch between multiple operating systems such as Chrome and Android. There are currently no detailed information about plans for a company based in Mountain View this, except wait until the time comes.

Spam Filtering Service More Than 25 Billion

Service spam filter, Akismet, announced the latest achievement after 'capturing' spam to-25 billion. Akismet-party claims if they are detected at around 40 million spam comments per day. Figures sped away after December 2010 then they claim successfully detected 20.7 billion spam comments and pings.

In order to celebrate the achievement of it, Akismet create mini-sites that invite readers to learn of their services more accessible in akismet.com/25billion.

Akismet find some interesting facts from a total of 25 billion spam that managed their detection. They claim the spammer's busiest activity is on Fridays at 20:00 GMT. Instead, Sunday at 14:00 GMT is the time most active spammers.

Launched in 2005, seeks Akismet spam filter links from comments on blogs and trackback pings. Filtration is done by combining information about the spam that was detected on various blogs that participated, and then use it to block spam at a later date.

Cloud-Based Music Applications From Google

Not wanting to lose from the Amazon, the internet giant Google also indicated will release cloud-based music applications in the near future. A cloud-music service applications are reported to appear in the Android Market developer version. Although not yet live, many people believe that applications will soon be introduced.

Digital music specialist sites Music Ally claimed, there were a number of people who use that application. "They assess the applications was very impressive and has a more feature rich than the Amazon cloud-music service today," wrote Music Ally.  Last week, Amazon, Google and Apple surprise by launching a music service cloud, Cloud Player, which lets users store their entire music collection online and access them from various devices.

The application of music very similar to Google's Android Music Player that already exist today. Appearance of this application is similar to the Android Music Player. While setting the menu has been enriched with a variety of streaming options. Android Market itself is also little changed, where the developer version includes a number of surprises like the camera application and a new desk clock.

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.

Smartphones Used For Shopping

Based on the latest survey from BIO Agency, one of five in the UK smart phone owners use applications on their handsets to shop. BIO Agency claims, UK residents spend around 581 million pounds each year for spending by using the application, in which each owner smartphone is expected to spend up to 30 pounds every month.

"People want the comfort and convenience when shopping. You probably can not go to the store or have access to a computer. But you must hold the phone," said managing director of BIO Agency, Peter Veash. "By using the application, users also can compare prices easily. They can shop at stores A and in an instant price check at the store B," said Peter Veash. Further, BIO Agency explained, the goods of the most widely purchased through smartphone applications are groceries, DVDs, cinema tickets and train tickets.
