Industry campaign 'Green' Technology

Industry often regarded as one of the highest contributor in the air pollution. Therefore, the electricity industry association, the United States (U.S.) plan to use technology that can reduce emissions of greenhouse gases or regular technology called 'green'.

Campaign technology 'green' will be working with the Edison Electric Institute (EEI), to create technology that can be used to reduce air pollution. In addition, EEI will provide points of agreement to the members of the U.S. electricity industry associations that want to apply the reduction of gas emissions to 80 percent.

"We will be pressing so that the perpetrators of the industry would reduce pollution to 80 percent, which will be done gradually until the year 2050 coming," said a spokesperson for EEI.

To achieve this long-term plan, there are some that will be made by EEI. In addition to re-regulation of the industry as much as possible to reduce emissions that cause a crisis environment, EEI also expect Maximization of the nuclear technology for human good.

"In the short term, the U.S. has begun to encourage a reduction in gas emissions to 40 percent. And I hope this can continue with the good," said EEI spokesman.

Obesity risk Increase migraine

Excess body weight that is able to trigger the disease in the head pain, migraine. A study in the United States revealed that, after doing research on the 22 thousand people aged 20-55 years.

Weight people aged 20-55 years is associated with the disease. Migraine pain is often defined as the pulse with the nausea, vomiting.

People are usually sensitive to light, sound, even smell. Headache is most often only on one side of it, sometimes move to the next, but can be on both sides of the head at once.

In the United States, migraine is estimated to strike as much 30 million people or 10 percent of the U.S. population. Migraine attacks are also more people aged 20 to 45. However, the album rarely attack people aged above 55 years.

Obesity also trigger the disease diabetes, high blood pressure, heart, and stroke. Therefore, a doctor from the Drexel University College of Medicine, Philadelphia, Dr. Lee Peterlin reminded, at this time each person must consider the weight of body. Reduction in body weight is able to help reduce the disease in the head.

"We see if the studies have shown sports and activities are able to reduce the risk," he said.

Playstation 5 Enso Design

Playstation, game console products made Sony Corporation has this surely you know. After yesterday we published a surplus Sony PS3, Microsoft XBOX 360 and Nintendo Wii, so this day we present the issue of how the shape and the next Playstation model.

If at this time has been outstanding and the PS3 is being discussed about the PS4, a designer named Harold Smook titillate even have our fantasy game, the concept design of the Playstation 5 Enso is expected to attend in the year 2018. You will certainly great surprise how the concepts and then 9 years old. TechRadar reports that Yanko Design published the picture you can see this design is the result of Harold Smook, Playstation Enso in 2019. According to Yanko, inspired from the design elements in Zen Buddhism which is also believed by the Japanese. With the premise that the symbol is called "Enso", which means that the bright light.

"Because this is a progressive design that, naturally accommodate some new features that will be made later in the year 2018, that we expect from the new PS5." According to him.

Specification PS Enso Dreamland

Yanko even published a specification that dream to be seen with the Playstation Enso, among others:
• 4 USB port connection
• DVD drives with terabyte capacity
• Compatible with DVD and CD data previously
• SD memory slot with capacity terabyte
• wireless controller
• Connection with wireless Internet
• Console must have Battery charger
• projector that displays 3D images to 3D space between us with the physical layer.
• to touch the power button and the Eject
• Light blue with the glow effect that indicates Battery status

And if it is still not enough for you, you will be able to shed control Kinetic energy from the movement of your hands as a burden. So, we wait.

Sanyo Develop Hybrid Electric Bicycle

Sanyo successfully developed a hybrid bike engine assisted by the electric energy that can be charged back.

Sanyo-made bicycle is equipped with an engine placed in front of the wheel. Two-wheel vehicle is carrying passengers to walk along the 1.8 times more than ordinary bicycles.

According to Sanyo, a bicycle is to get energy from the battery Feed litium ion rechargeable battery. In fact, this bike can even control the consumption of energy in such a way. When running a bicycle must decline, or when the brake is used, then the energy will be stopped Feed. In addition, this bike also has a reserve of energy storage technology.

While the bike must be running when the power pedal uphill will automatically be upgraded twice. Sanyo-made bicycle say this will be marketed in Japan in February 2009 with prices as much USD 1,430 per unit.

Fast Food causing brain damage

Consume too much fast food can disrupt health. In fact, most likely reduce the power of the brain.

Research that involves scientists origin Sweden Karolinska Institutet, try to do testing on a rat. During the nine months was given a rat Feed fast food every day. After nine months, the rat problem in the power of his brain, which look like Alzheimer's Disease.

"Foods that contain fat, sugar, and cholesterol can cause a decrease in the performance of the brain. In research, we found changes in brain chemistry similar to the rat brain affected in Alzheimer," dust one scientist Susanne Akterin.

Alzheimer is a disease that can affect the brain associated with thinking, remembering, and the use of language in speaking. Up to now, the usual Alzheimer attack the elderly, have not found it exactly.

For the making of the medicine is currently only focused in order to eliminate the type of beta-amyloid protein that can be slowly plaque in the brain. Scientists try the therapy to remove toxic protein that caused the harm.

"From all the essence, this research hopes to provide how Alzheimer can be prevented. In addition, a warning for people not to consume fast food is excessive," said Akterin.

Be careful, the diet can decrease the power mind

For some people, especially women, diet is considered as a powerful way to lose weight. But, you know, if it turns strict diet can cause bad effects for the power of the mind to do it.

Holly Taylor, a professor from Tufts University, Massachusetts says, is lack of carbohydrate affects the brain a memory, and cause people easily forget.

Times of India, Sunday (2008/12), Taylor conducted research on a number of women aged 22 to 55 who do the diet for a week. After diet, the woman, then do a test power test capability remember. Result, the ability of respondents to be reduced compared to a week before the carbohydrate diet.

"This research shows that what we eat every day that affect the ability of the memory. The low carbohydrate consumption is a potential down the power of awareness and thought someone," said Taylor.

According to Taylor, the body to crave carbohydrates turn into glucose which is needed for brain activity. Although the protein is modified to be able glikogen also give nutrition for the brain, but glikogen can not function as effective as glucose.

It can be, people with reduced carbohydrate diet will result in less glucose, a result of the brain system is to be decreased.

Play Games with the strength of mind

After the game Wii game with motion sensor, a game company to create more sophisticated. They make a game that can be played with the strength of mind.

A game player is now possible to play games without having to use a hand. Movement of game characters can now be done only with thinking.

"This new Game can be run only with the help of mind. This is the result of collaboration between the eyes and mind," said company spokesman Tim Sheridan Mattel game.

Muscles are connected with the mind EEG technology to measure brain wave activity. Later on, the headset is equipped with sensor technology will capture the movement going, good movement of the forehead muscles and the ear lobe. EEG is a continuation of electroencephalography, a technology that is able to identify mind and brain activity. Say, a company called NeuroSky is the creator of this technology.

The use of EEG in the game console will be busy this year. In addition to Mattel, there is Uncle Milton game company that will lay mind game called Force Trainer.

Read the Books better than Computers

A tale of children into activities that are fun, because in addition to insight, can also strengthen the relationship between parents and children. However, the development of technology, to make children prefer to read books rather than on the computer. This phenomenon is feared by many researchers.

A group of researchers who came from the University of Stavanger, in Norway, suggested to the parents to prefer the reading through the book rather than through a computer, for children. For, through the computer can affect the mental concentration and the child.

Screen found in a computer, most will sway, in addition to click and scrolling using the mouse to change the page, it can disrupt the concentration of the child.

"Some experiments in cognitive psychology has shown how changes in technology can be read to potential negative affect on the memory of a child," one of the researchers dust Professor Anne Mangen.

Added by Mangen, his team continue to evaluate that digital media can be a help to teach. Technologies are very helpful, but not how little influence the effect of computer instruction. Learning requires time, energy, and mental. While digital media does not provide for it.

Learning to use digital media is good, but will eliminate the overall feeling of parents in the process of teaching. For that, they suggest that teachers do not forget the book as a window of information for children who are in a period of growth.

Beer will be Used to Fuel Cars

Amidst fears of scarcity of fuel oil in the future, some countries try to develop alternative fuels. A beer company's original United States are developing a system for making fuel ethanol from the rest of the beer fermentation process.

As news of Livescience, Sunday (2009/2/8), Sierra Nevada Brewing Co., Chico in California, are working with the E-Fuel Corporation to develop a system of making biofuel, called MicroFueler.

Sierra Nevada will begin development of that system in the second quarter 2009, and estimated at the end of the third quarter have been able to produce fuel are overkill.

"Development of fuel that will be a potentially very big for the environment," said the President as well as the founder of Sierra Nevada Brewing Co.., Ken Grossman.

During this time, the remaining processing of beer contains as much alcohol 5-8 percent. With the system, the actual level of alcohol will be increased to 15 per cent alcohol into fuel.

"The use of fuel from the remains of the production of beer will make your car more environmentally friendly and can save money in your wallet," said the CEO of E-Fuel, Tom Quinn.

Cigarettes can cause cancer in Pregnancy

For the expectant mother who is also a smoker, it's good you suck stop the tobacco habit is. Section of a point of study in Australia, women who smoke are at a risk of cancer can cause the baby to be born.

Times of India, on Monday (2009/1/12) launch the new information from the New South Wales Cancer Institute, Australia declares that the baby is born from a mother at risk smokers five times larger contract cancer.

In addition, the baby will be born premature or faster than the time estimated that nine months, not only the weight of the baby also will be reduced compared with infants born from mothers who do not smoke.

"We are not able to ensure the relationship between pregnancy smoking, but it is very clear that smoking is very dangerous during pregnancy," said the spokesperson for New South Wales Cancer Institute, Jim Bishop.

The researchers will develop the research further to reveal the relationship between cancer risk pregnancy with the baby until the child or adolescent's babies are born in the mother smoking during pregnancy.

"Start at this time, we warn the mother not to smoke because the risk of cancer really is, we will proof it," said another researcher, Jodi McKay.

Hearst is developing E-Reader

Hearst, the largest media conglomerates in the world has announced that the company will develop electronic readers for newspapers and magazines, as the Amazon Kindle.

Readers of electronic news is quite important because Hearst has approximately 15 daily newspapers and 49 weekly and the media have a strong influence for hundreds of magazines. Examples of media are San Francisco Chronicle and Cosmopolitan.

Not clear, whether the device is being developed with eReader Hearst related to the Plastic Logic technology but that the device is being developed similar to the Kindle in which the main difference is a larger size. According to the information it is likely the e-reader uses e Ink technology.

At the same time, Hearst was a program paying for access to online content. When the e-reader device have been released and then how to read newspaper and magazine publishing will be shifted, because the readers get to live it. According to the plan, the e-reader will be launched 12 to 18 months.

Contact lenses may cause blindness

The use of contact lenses are becoming an alternative for users that have eyeglasses frame glasses against allergies. In addition, the use of contact lenses is generally dominated by women's votes can also add beauty to the users.

However, a study conducted by the University of La Laguna, declared a contact lens can cause blindness. User contact lens hygiene is not the contact lens contact lenses can become a paradise for the causes of blindness protozoa, Acanthamoeba.

Acanthamoeba is one of the protozoa that can cause blindness eyes. Protozoa Patologis it can not be turned off with a normal contact lens cleaning.

Acanthamoeba is generally found in soil, water and damp areas. Several species of Acanthamoeba species consume bacteria and can cause infections to humans. Acanthamoeba infection usually called amoebic keratitis with that attack the human eye. Based on the research, as much 85 percent of amoebic keratitis attack contact lens users.

Contact lens users who do not remove the lens at the time of swimming in chlorinated water containing a cleaning process or the way the water soak in more risk of Acanthamoeba contamination.

"The Acanthamoeba has increased over the last twenty years all over the world, particularly the contact lens users," said researcher University of La Laguna, DR Basilio Valladares. When users contact lens lenses soak in the water lens will contamination with acanthamoeba. Indirectly protozoa long run it will be direct contact with eyes.

According to Valladares, conditions that will be more dangerous because of Acanthamoeba can not be killed only with the normal cleaning process. Researchers have tried Acanthamoeba that can only be killed with the antibiotic ciprofloxacin and fluid liquid antiseptic chlorhexidine with a high concentration. chlorhexidine cleaning liquid contact lenses that are not currently have a high enough concentration.

The researchers examined 153 contact lens users in Tenerife, Spain and find the 90 contact lens contamination Acanthamoeba. 30 percent of the amount stated protozoa exposed to contamination patologis the high-risk cause blindness.

"Currently we are developing solutions that can kill the pathogen species to contact lenses, we expect the user may contact lenses is cautious," said Valladares.

Antibiotics Ability Save the life of patients

Giving antibiotics before the infection occurred in patients for intensive care unit that can create opportunities for a greater life.

Findings are reported in the New England Journal of Medicine, revealed that giving antibiotics immediately, even before an infection developed, the more important to save the life of someone.

"We have been using antibiotics to reduce the risk of death in patients treated intensively. And this information needs to be notified to the community," said Anne Marie de Smet, one of the researchers who came from the University Medical Center Utrecht.

Anti-bacterial drugs is a problem in the segregated hospital in the world. This is marked by the increase in bacteria such as methicillin-resistant Staphyloccus aureus, or MRSA. Infection has been as much to kill 19,000 people a year in the United States, while for one year more than 4,000 people infected in the UK.

As Science Daily reported, De Smet and colleagues have been examining as many as 6,000 men and women who lived in the intensive care units in 13 hospitals in the Netherlands to compare the effects of different antibiotic treatment.

The result is, antibiotics can save someone who is exposed to infection. This discovery became important, because in some hospitals in poor countries, there are some difficulties to get the anti-bacterial drugs.

"With the delivery of antibiotics at first. At least the hospital can help those who need drugs in treating patients who are infected," said De Smeet.

MP3 Player can damage the ear drum

European scientists warn of danger of damage to the ear drum caused by the MP3 music player.

According to these scientists, through Reuters, Wednesday (2009/1/28), as much 10 million young people in Europe suffer potential damage to the hearing if they continue to listen to music through MP3 device with the volume level is too loud.

"Listen to music through MP3 device and a music player other equipment, with the volume level is too high, in the long and continuous, can cause pain and hearing a voice in the emerging buzz in your ear all the time," said the head of the team of scientists the State Board of Health -European countries.

Results of a study they did find, as much 5 to 10 percent of MP3 users have a risk of losing his hearing permanently, if he use to listen to MP3 music more than one hour a day for 5 consecutive years, with the volume loud, of course.

Wine glass Increase Cancer Risk

If you like wine, it's good you start to reduce consumption or stop the habit. Section, according to a study, the 125 ml of wine containing alcohol a day increase the risk of the threat of mouth cancer 168%.

Studies conducted by the National Cancer Institute (Inca), France, said women who consume wine alcohol potentially cause breast cancer. "Any small amount of alcohol consumed, alcohol is very dangerous indeed," said Inca, Dominique Maraninchi as quoted Dailymail.

The study was also disputed the previous study, which states, in a glass of red wine there are antioxidants that can help reduce the risk of cancer. Inca studies also reveal if alcohol is the second largest cause of death after tobacco.

Cancer is a concern all countries in Europe, such as the UK. In the land of Queen Elisabeth, the alcohol as much cause as much, or 6 percent of 9000 cases of death due to cancer every year. From the 9000 cases, 5000 of which are mouth cancer and 2000 cases of breast cancer is.

"We start to know if the alcohol content in even less-as in Beer, Wine Sprits or even increase the different types of cancer. Therefore should reduce alcohol consumption," said the origin of cancer research UK, Dr Jodie Moffat.

UK at this time, the ten countries with the largest amount of alcohol consumption in the world. English Society in mind, on average consume 12 liters of pure alcohol per year per person. That case, the same as the consumption of three glasses of wine every day.

Meanwhile, the Luxembourg considered as a country with the largest amount of alcohol consumption with the amount of 16 liters per person per year. There is a sequence in the next, Ireland, Hungary, Moldova and the amount of 14 liters per person per year.

Food With Nanotechnology Process

Healthy and nutritious food that is capable of properly absorbed by the body, in fact far better if the food is produced using Nanotechnology.

"The problem I always faced is the people who do not understand what can be done with the Nanotechnology and food," said Frans Kampers, one of the original researchers for the American Association of Science, as cited China Daily, Tuesday (2009 / 2 / 17).

"Currently people are still afraid of eating food produced from Nanotechnology. They think, food is the effect that bad," augment him.

By scientists Dutch origin, Nanotechnology promises techniques that can bring a healthy nutrient to bring the body more efficient in absorbing nutrients in the food matrix, so that there is no good vitamins in food, which is discarded useless.

The researchers, the middle work hard to ensure that food produced from Nanotechnology really can bring a positive impact. Moreover, some researchers believe that the actual metal, silver, in the packaging can be dangerous.

Arsenic and vitamin A can cure Leukemia

Leukemia likely will not again become a disease of death. Doctors in China is able to claim a cure leukemia with Arsenic and Vitamin A.

Claimed by Reuters, Tuesday (2009/2/17), the doctor in China has been conducting research involving 85 patients and observe their development during the period 70 months.

The result, as many as 80 patients claim to have the benefit of a large amount of these ingredients. Not even the emergence of problems in a long time in the area of cancer is.

Research also proves that, before the disease of cancer does not cause symptoms to re-grow, especially for people with spinal cancer and blood cancer, or known as acute promyelocytic leukemia.

"Two years after treatment, patients have a degree that urine and blood arsenic is still under the limit," said the National Academy of Sciences.

Since 18-th century, arsenic compound had been used as medicine for certain diseases. Even in 2000, the agency supervisor drug and food United States (FDA) has approved the use of arsenic to treat blood cancer and bone.

Broccoli can Prevent Respiratory Disturbances

Vegetables have been long known as a food that contains lots of vitamins that the body is able to help avoid some diseases. Recently, a number of researchers from the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) to reveal the one vegetable that is capable of preventing a variety of respiratory disturbances.

UCLA researchers revealed that broccoli is able to protect the body from various respiratory disturbances such as asthma or shortness of breath.

"This is the first study to reveal the property of broccoli as a food source that can act as antioxidants," said UCLA researcher, Dr. Marc Riedl in his article published in the journal Clinical Immunology.

According to Riedl, the researchers found that broccoli is able to increase production of antioxidants enzyme so that the potential respiratory assist. 200 grams of broccoli can help to increase 101 percent enzyme antioxidants called GSTP1 and 199 percent of another enzyme called NQO1.

Broccoli contains sulforaphane natural mind which is the family's fito chemicals isothiocyanates that are associated with sugar molecules. When someone then consume broccoli sulforaphane will separate the molecules of sugar and increase the production of enzyme GSTP1 and NQO1.

Researchers working with 65 volunteers to do research as much three weeks to get all the conclusions about the property broccoli.

Virtual Cocoon

Enjoy the virtual world using a tool may not be something new again. But, if it involves the pleasure of five senses, be it new Virtual Cocoon capable. Helmet magically make users feel this sensation smell, taste, and touch, than to see and hear of course.

Virtual Cocoon is a tool scientists made several UK universities. Considering that mimic reality, not change the reality. Project that claimed to be the first in the world is quite a complex system work. According to the team of developers, in the virtual view Virtual Cocoon can live and use the data in a database.

To view the available large screen located in front of the user. Glasses display a sophistication in image quality above the average TV. Visualization is then given perfect voices like in the real world. Speaker surround-installed so that its spread and feels more real.

To smell, there is such a small pipe that is connected to the nose. This pipe is connected with the box that contains many chemical solvents. The same tools also work on the taste senses. Gas is out of the helmet is expected to be a sense that can be felt. For air temperature, this helmet is equipped with fan, heater, and temperature regulator.

For example, if users want to feel the sensation to go to enjoy the North Pole topping stars, Virtual Cocoon will adjust the temperature in a very cold to make lips and face dry skin. We can feel the cold bone puncture. Polar atmosphere with the sound the wind rustle can we see and hear.

Virtual Cocoon if this brings us to a restaurant, for the typical cuisine, its fragrance can be felt through the pipe. All systems are designed to connect a computer wirelessly. The goal, of course that can be used anywhere.

Virtual Cocoon is aiming to entertain and alleviate costs around the world. However, this tool can also be used for business, education, and training.

That would benefit many students. Now imagine them not only when studying history. But, they can feel to the desert. For business, this can be used for virtual meetings. Department of fire, medical staff, and the military can use them for training. Virtual Cocoon is able to bring the same conditions with the real events.

Prototype is exhibited at the event Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). Virtual Cocoon get positive response. But, there is also a slate, especially with the health of the user.

"No need to worry, we always evaluate, explore further the implications of this tool," said David Howard, a team of developers York Univercity. Virtual prototype Cocoon still be developed in order to secure and comfortable.
