-48% for the Core i7-950 – BeHardware

Intel cut its pricing for the Core i7-950 (3.06 GHz) this weekend. Its price has been reduced from $562 to $294 and now costs the same as the i7-930 (2.80 GHz). The rest of its list is unchanged, and on LGA1366 the i7-920 (2.66 GHz) is also at $284, the i7-960 (3.2 GHz) at $562 and then the i7-970 (3.2 GHz hexacore) at $885.

Nanotechnology enables ultra high-def LCDs, cheaper stacked-electrode OLED screens

Nanotechnology enables ultra high-def LCDs, cheaper stacked-electrode OLED screens — Engadget

Pixel density enthusiasts, pay close attention, because science is ready to blow your minds — the University of Michigan has developed an LCD technology that can display their logo in a space just nine microns high. By creating a filter made of microscopic metal gratings with differently sized holes just a few hundred nanometers wide, researchers discovered they could precisely capture wavelengths associated to red, green and blue light, producing pixels roughly eight times smaller than those in the iPhone 4′s famous screen, and entire images that could practically fit inside a single dot of Kopin’s microdisplay.

Meanwhile, OLEDs (which don’t require filters to produce their color) saw a nanotech breakthrough of their own last week, as a group at the University of Florida have discovered that carbon nanotubes can revitalize a once-inefficient but promising vertical stacking technique. Layering thin sheets of aluminum, carbon nanotubes, organic material and finally gold on top of a glass substrate, scientists have created OLEDs that promise to be cheaper, faster and require one-tenth of the power of those using polycrystalline silicon, and could theoretically be printed as a flexible display as well. Here’s hoping we’ll see the fruits of these fellows’ labors soon — we can’t wait to pen a follow-up to this epic fight.

The mind’s eye: How the brain sorts out what you see

The mind’s eye: How the brain sorts out what you see – life – 30 August 2010 – New Scientist

These findings seem to support the view emerging from several disparate fields of neuroscience – that the subconscious mind has a bigger role than previously supposed. When it comes to the mental faculties we prize as uniquely human, including creativity, language and aspects of memory and learning, subconscious thought processes are far from playing second fiddle to the conscious mind (New Scientist, 1 December, 2007, p 42).

Sir Cliff Richard: Pushing 70, yet he’s still got the body of a Young One | Mail Online

Sir Cliff, who turns 70 in October, peeled off for his 2011 calendar.

He says the secret of his eternal youth is tennis three times a week, two glasses of red wine a day and a daily dose of lecithin – a supplement derived from soya beans, meat and eggs – which experts claim restricts the body’s ability to form fat.

He has also spent three years following the Blood Type diet, which means he no longer eats wheat or dairy products.

LG LEX8 to debut at IFA 2010

LG LEX8 – LG LEX8 to debut at IFA 2010

LG’s LEX8 is meant to be the prime example from the South Korea consumer electronics giant when it comes to the benefits of LED technology. Measuring a mere 0.88cm thin, it has a super slim 1.25cm bezel as well as1080p resolution at a 400Hz motion rate. According to LG, their very own Nano Lighting technology is capable of delivering a clearer, smoother picture compared to its competitors. While there isn’t any word on a US rollout, it seems likely that it will hit the IFA 2010 festival in Berli later this year. No idea on the price either, but you know what they say – if you have to ask, you can’t afford it anyways. Check out the LG LEX8′s specifications in the extended post.

Grapefruitul ar putea trata diabetul

Grapefruitul ar putea trata diabetul – Gandul

Un grup de cercetători de la Universitatea Hebrew din Ierusalim susţine că grapefruitul ar putea tratat diabetul, datorită conţinutului de naringenină, antioxidantul vinovat pentru gustul amar specific fructului, care măreşte sensibilitatea organismului la insulină, relatează cotidianul britanic Daily Mail.

Medicul Martin Yarmush Remarka, coordonatorul studiului, spune că acest fruct ajută la menţinerea greutăţii, fapt esenţial în ţinerea sub control a bolii. “Antioxidanţii fructului au capacitatea de a scădea nivelul colesterolului din organism.

Este recomandat atât persoanelor care au diabet, cât şi celor care sunt sănătoase să mănânce cel puţin jumătate de grapefruit după fiecare masă, mai ales când aceasta este bogată în grăsimi şi carbohidraţi”, recomandă dr. Remarka. Până în prezent studiile realizate pe fructe şi legume au arătat doar faptul că există anumite alimente care scad riscul apariţiei diabetului. Astfel, o dietă bogată în legume, mai ales spanac şi varză, din familia cruciferelor, diminuează riscul de diabet cu 14 la sută.

În acelaşi timp, cercetările au arătat ca aceşti pacienţi tind să aibă carenţă de vitamina C în organism, astfel că specialiştii recomadă citricele, datorită conţinutului ridicat de fibră în detrimentul pastilelor de vitamina C.

“O lingură cu vârf de orez negru conţine mai mulţi antioxidanţi anthocyanină decât aceeaşi cantitate de afine, dar mult mai puţin zahăr şi mai multă vitamină E şi antioxidanţi decât acestea. Dacă afinele sunt eficiente în menţinerea unei stări bune de sănătate, de ce nu ar fi şi orezul negru?”, spune Zhimin Xu, specialist în alimentaţie.

Sistem ca în Star Trek în Cocor Mall: nu e nevoie să mai probezi haine, te va îmbrăca robotul

Sistem ca în Star Trek în Cocor Mall: nu e nevoie să mai probezi haine, te va îmbrăca robotul

VIDEO: De luna viitoare puteţi spune adio cabinelor de probă. În magazinul Cocor, care se va deschide publicului după trei ani de modernizări, va funcţiona un aparat care vă va găsi haine exact pe măsura dumneavoastră. Conceptul reprezintă o premieră globală. Acesta va scana la cerere clientul, iar în timp real i se va genera avatarul.

Scanerul corporal e primul aparat de acest gen din ţară şi permite măsurarea indicelui de volum corporal, stabileşte procentul de grăsime şi masa musculară. Pe baza acestor date, el generează peste 200 de măsuri de îmbrăcăminte, care permit probarea de haine fără deplasarea la cabina de probă, deci virtual.

Live birth, evolving before our eyes

Zoologger: Live birth, evolving before our eyes – life – 25 August 2010 – New Scientist

James Stewart of East Tennessee State University in Johnson City and colleagues have now shown that as the skinks retain their young for longer, they reduce the thickness of the eggshell. This allows the mother to keep the embryo well fed.

However, even the live-bearers have not got rid of the shell entirely. Baby skinks that are born live come out encased in a membrane – all that is left of the eggshell. With a bit of help from their mothers, most of them break out of the membrane within 36 hours.

How did live birth evolve? One group of the egg-laying skinks retain their eggs inside their bodies for longer than the others, and it seems that the live-bearers evolved from these “intermediate” skinks.

Reptiles are more likely to develop live birth if they live in cold climates, where it is a good idea to protect their offspring in their bodies, rather than exposing them to the rigours of the environment too soon. Sarah Smith of Stony Brook University, New York, points out that this explains why it is the skinks who live in the chilly highlands that give birth to live young.
