Exploding Batteries In Notebooks Finally Have a Solution
2008-04-13 13:14:00 'The new technology uses solid compounds instead of the traditional Li-Ion electrolytes'A group of German researchers have just announced a new type of lithium-ion battery that promises to be safer and more reliable, even when usedin extreme conditions.Recent incidents involving exploding batteries have put their reliability under question. You might remember the massive Sony battery recall in 2007 or the extended investigations conducted by LG Chem right after notebooks powered by its batteries started to catch fire.According to the group of researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute for Silicate Research ISC, the new batteries are extremely safe thanks to some crucial innovations in their manufacturing process. "We have succeeded in replacing the inflammable organic electrolytes with a non-flammable polymer that retains its shape," said ISC team leader Kai-Christian Moller.Batteries built with lithium-ion technology are widely used in consumer electronics appliances, as they are mo...

IBM working on a revolutionary memory format
2008-04-11 14:24:00 Solid-state (pictured) and conventional hard drivescould eventually be replaced by racetrack memoryIBM researchers are working on a new hi-tech form of memory they believe could eventually replace hard drives and flash-based memory altogether.Based on the recently discovered spintronic phenomena, the new memory format has been dubbed racetrack memory by the IBM researchers working on it and uses tiny magnetic boundaries, known as domain walls, to store data.The domain walls are read by exploiting the weak magnetic fields generated by the spin of electrons.Years awayAlthough the IBM research team have yet to build a functioning racetrack memory unit and estimate that the technology is another eight years away from becoming viable for commercial use, they are confident that the technology could eventually replace existing storage methods.Currently, conventional hard discs are cheap, but consist of moving parts that can break down. Solid state memory, by comparison, is quicker and more... More About: Memory , Format , Working , Revolutionary

2008-04-09 21:25:00 Many people think cancer is entirely genetic and cannot be avoided, but that's not true.Healthy behaviors could prevent about half of cancer deaths, according to the American Cancer Society.Here are 10 lifestyle changes, all based on the latest research, that can improve the odds against cancer. The tips come from Dr. Anne McTiernan of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center in Seattle.- Don’t smoke or use any other tobacco products. If you’ve tried to quit before, don’t give up — eventually something will work.- Get screened for cancer regularly (colon, breast, prostate, cervix and skin should be tested — ask your doctor for intervals and age at which to start). Finding cancer early can greatly increase your chance for a cure and reduce your risk of dying from the disease.- Keep your alcohol consumption low. This means no more than two drinks per day for men and one drink per day for women. Keeping your alcohol intake to the minimum daily level doesn’t mean that you... More About: Things , Avoid
The Bamboo - A Miracle Material
2008-04-09 20:18:00 In the world of the building materials, bamboo could compete successfully against steel, concrete, wood and glass. Because of its exceptional mechanical qualities, low price and design, bamboo could turn into one of the preferred building materials of the future. Even if it looks like a tree, the bamboo is just a woody perennial evergreen grass, related to cereals like wheat, corn or rice. Bamboo plantationFor more than 2,000 years, the bamboo has been used for building suspended bridges, houses, scaffolds, but also for making home products, furniture, pirogues, and musical instruments. The Chinese employed it in making a wide range of tools, from surgical needles (pieces with widths of tenths of millimeters, used for sewing nerves) to pipe lines, even during the 4th century BC. They used bamboo pipe lines to transport the brine from the salt mines of Tsu-Liu-Ching (Sichuan province).Some bamboo construction resisted over the millennia. The suspended bamboo...

Intel Prepares For The Cosmic Ray Threat To Computer Chips
2008-04-09 08:48:00 'Computer processor manufacturer Intel have revealed details of a patent for protecting future generations of computers from the growing threat of cosmic rays'The company has designed an on-chip cosmic ray detector to try to cope with the particles, which originate in space before sporadically entering the Earth's atmosphere and going through everything they encounter.Because the operation of computers is through charged particles, the unpredicatable hits from the rays are problematic, potentially causing the system to crash.The problems are multiplied as the numberof chips increases"What happens is if a cosmic ray causes a collision inside the silicon chip, that releases lots of charged particles," Intel's senior scientist Eric Hannah told BBC World Service's Digital Planet programme."All our logic is based on charge, so it gets interference."'Bigger disturb'The risk from cosmic rays may not be thought of as a big problem on a single computer with a single chip, as there is ...

You Can't Travel Back in Time, Scientists Say
2008-04-07 11:12:00 The urge to hug a departed loved one again or prevent atrocities are among the compelling reasons that keep the notion of time travel alive in the minds of many.While the idea makes for great fiction, some scientists now say traveling to the past is impossible.There are a handful of scenarios that theorists have suggested for how one might travel to the past, said Brian Greene, author of the bestseller, “The Elegant Universe” and a physicist at Columbia University.“And almost all of them, if you look at them closely, brush up right at the edge of physics as we understand it. Most of us think that almost all of them can be ruled out.”The fourth dimensionIn physics, time is described as a dimension much like length, width, and height.

Man shot by a killer robot
2008-04-07 10:58:00 AN 81-year-old Gold Coast man built, an intricate suicide machine to remotely shoot himself, after downloading the plans from the internet.The Burleigh Heads man, who lived alone, left notes of his plans and thoughts as he struggled to come to terms with demands by interstate relatives that he move out his home and into care.He spent hours searching the internet for a way to kill himself, downloaded what he needed and then built a complex machine that would remotely fire a gun.He set the device up in his driveway about 7am yesterday, placed himself in front of it and set it in motion.His notes explained that he chose the driveway as he knew there were tradesmen working next door who would find his body. The plan worked as the workmen heard the gunshots and ran to investigate.The source website did not reveal how the machine worked, but they said it was attached to a .22 semi-automatic pistol loaded with four bullets.It was able to fire multiple shots into the man's head after he ac...

Man Gets Killed in an Attempt at Squeezing Gold from Computer Hardware
2008-04-06 07:16:00 'He got intoxicated with mercury vapors'A man got killed after an unsuccessful attempt at extracting gold from his own computer hardware devices. Tulsa resident Tony Winnett died after weeks of getting intoxicated with mercury, a metal he used to substitute gold from the computer's circuitry.Winnett, aged 55, experimented with mercury for such a long time,that not only he got lethally poisoned, but his house was so contaminated that living inside it will be extremely dangerous and could result in other individuals getting poisoned.According to Durant/Bryan County Emergency Management Director James Dalton, Winnett along with his partner Melissa Lake heated the mercury during the gold separation process and involuntarily inhaled the dangerous vapors.Dalton enlarged upon the matter and said that mercury is used on a large scale for separating gold, as a result of a simple chemical reaction, but this operation is not to be done at home, and rather in a specially controlled industry ...

Tooth Regeneration May Replace Drill-and-Fill
2008-04-04 13:12:00 Dentistry has taken the same approach to tooth decay —filling cavities — for decades, but new techniques for rebuilding teethfrom the inside out could transform the profession over the next decade.The next time your children get cavities, they might get tooth regeneration instead of fillings.That's because materials scientists are beginning to find just the right solutions of chemicals to rebuild decayed teeth, rather than merely patching their holes. Enamel and dentin, the materials that make teeth the strongest pieces of the body, would replace the gold or ceramic fillings that currently return teeth to working order."What we're hoping to have happen is to catch [decaying teeth] early and remineralize them," said Sally Marshall, a professor at the University of California at San Francisco. Marshall gave a talk last week at the spring meeting of the Materials Research Society on rebuilding the inner portions of teeth.While regrowing your uncle's toothless grin from scratch i...

Matrix-Like Virtual Realities Will Soon Be Created By SuperComputers
2008-04-04 13:02:00 'The technology will be perfected during the next years'Supercomputers could be able to create extremely detail-rich virtual realities, that are strikingly similar to the ones presented in The Matrix . Researcher Michael McGuigan claims that extremely powerful supercomputers could be able to render virtual worlds that are so accurate that they can be mistaken for the real environment.The new worlds would allow the subjects to interact with the virtual environment as it would be able to do in the real life. "By interaction we mean you could control an object ? rotate it, for example ? and it would render in real-time," McGuigan says.The existing computers can spice up artificial scenes with high level of details, yet they require incredible amounts of graphics power. For instance, an image with the necessary amount of detail to trick the human into taking it for real would take hours to render completely.

Sony's "World's Smallest Full HD Cam" Has Miniature Sensor
More articles from this author:2008-04-03 12:03:00 'The HDR-TG1's WOW factor tainted by MemoryStick format'Sony's diminutive new heir to the newly minted "world's smallest Full HD camcorder" throne is the travel-ready silver titanium frame HDR-TG1. While Full HD (1920x1080, also known as 1080P) with a 1.3 x 4.7 x 2.5 inch body and $900 price tag would have seemed like fantasy just a short while ago, Sony made it real and gave it a horror twist that just one day after the launch already has potential customers complaining. Stealthy voyeurism in HD may have to wait a while more.This is a memory card camera, but it can only use Sony's unsuccessful proprietary MemoryStick format. While it ships with a 4GB PRO Duo Mark 2 card, using it in its most attractive role – as a travel/vacation cam - would most likely force you to buy extra MemoryStick cards, which just happen to be more expensive than (almost twice as much as) the norm.
