Recently, HTC has realized that launching a new handset with only a single carrier in today’s market is a dreadful idea. Therefore the company has decided to release it with some other mobile carriers as well.

Consequently, AT&T has declared that the company will soon provide its network on  HTC One M8. Though AT&T hasn’t announced its price rate yet since the company want this news to be remain exclusive.

As stated by Jason Mackenzie, president of HTC America that it will occur at the end of this year. Verizon is presently the exclusive launch partner but this time they are planning to extend this product to a large number of customers.

Lately HTC has declared a GSM version of HTC One M8 which is a sign that soon the company will launch its international version.

The hardwares of HTC One M8 and Android One M8  are similar, the mere difference is in the logo of Verizon and Microsoft.

The group of scientist which controls NASA’s Curiosity Mars rover is telling the rover to utilize numerous tools. The tools would be used in order to examine a sandstone slab which is probably the next target of scientists for drilling.

If this objective fulfills all the conditions of engineers and scientists then it would be the third stone which is drilled during this mission.

The team gave it a name “Windjana”. The intended inspection is arranged  in order to get to a determination whether to drill at Windjana or not.

First, scientists applied a brush to remove the dust from that particular area of rock.  Then they closely scrutinized that patch through camera and X-ray spectrometer. Afterwards the researchers took readings of composition at several points of the rock with the help of a special instrument. That instrument fire laser shots from the rover’s mast.

This hammering drill gathered the powdered sample of elements from the inside of the rock. Subsequently, the rover transfers the portions of the sample to on-board laboratory instruments.

The first two Martin rocks drilled and evaluated were slabs of mudstone neighboring one another in Yellowknife Bay, approximately 2.5 miles. It means almost four kilometers northeast of the rover’s present position at a waypoint known as “ the Kimberley”.

These rocks produced evidence of an ancient lakebed environment with some significant elements.

Previously, Microsoft presented its plans to target the Google Chromebook market. WPC-2014 HP stream was one of the biggest competitors on stage.

In that press release, Microsoft had not declared the spec of the device, but now it is quite evident. Most of the people believed that this new device would make use of Intel’s ATOM chips, HP has opted for the AMD A4 Micro-6400T Quad Core Soc with 1.0 GHz and included graphics unit Radeon R3 that only require 4.5 watts of juice.

According to a source which is working on this HP manual that this laptop would be able to function without an active fan.

If you are thinking purchasing this laptop, then think twice since its RAM is not that advance. It has rather small storage devices which are of 32 GB and 64GB, but there is an option of SD cards has been given. SD cards would permit you to make your memory, bigger without any difficulty. You also get 100GB on OneDrive storage for 2 years with the device.

At last, the device contains a 14 inch display with a resolution of 1366×768. Nonetheless, people are still interested to see the performance of Windows 8.1 on this new set up. The only thing which Microsoft should be certain about is about the efficient working of this device in order to compete with the Google.

The large red tide bloom is posing serious threat to coastal plains of Florida as it has already killed thousands of fish off the Gulf Coast.

It is expected to wash ashore in the next two weeks. According to the health experts, if this happens they may pose serious health threats to the Floridians. The state has so far received several reports of thousands of dead and dying sea creatures, ranging from octopus to bull sharks.

Red tide is a phenomenon occurring in the sea water for centuries. It occurs at a time when the naturally occurring algae bloom becomes uncontrollable and start producing toxins that are fatal for marine creatures including fish octopus and others. Moreover, experts say the red tide poses greater risk to animals and not just the fishes.

The toxic odorless chemicals released by the algae turn the water red. They have serious health threats including respiratory distress, coughing and wheezing. The bloom contains microorganism called Karenia brevis. The algae contaminates the sea grasses that the The aquatic mammals mainly die due to the contaminated sea grasses which they generally eat. The toxic grasses disrupt their nervous systems and ultimately lead them to drown.

In order to keep a tab on the growth of the tide, two underwater robots have been deployed in the sea by the researchers at the Mote Marine Laboratory & Aquarium in Sarasota. These robots will be used to collect data on the slow-moving bloom.

According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission, the bloom has about 80 miles length and approx 50 miles width but presently the tide is from 40 to 90 miles offshore.

In 2013, a similar red tide bloom claimed lives of 276 endangered Florida manatees

The Engineers of United States have devised a novel system of camouflage grounded on the color transforming capabilities of cephalopods that are octopus, cuttlefish and squid.  The scientist imitated the similar method which these animals generally follow. They make use of the analogous design of layering in their work. Numerous scientists from different disciplines participated in this research work like marine biologist and engineers.

The member of cephalopods instantly makes an impression of its surrounding color. Afterwards it makes use of its muscles for the adjustment of color through the pigment cells. These pigment cells are commonly known as chromatophores.

This study is printed in the journal of PNAS (Proceeding of the National Assembly of Science). The engineers identified the light level with the assistance of photo sensors and transmitted the data to the acurators which is located on the upper level. The ultimate layer comprises of a heat sensitive pigment that changes color at 47 degree centigrade. The experts provide the required temperature of the final layer by means of an electric current.

Currently, the scientists are simply capable of shifting the color between black and white. Nevertheless, they are expecting that soon they would be able to attain the military and commercial application as well.

The U.S Navy considers themselves to be enough powerful since they are the chief fund provider of this task. Professor John Roger, a material scientist from the University of Illinois states that the system is at its initial stage.

AMD has earned a big name in the niche of CPUs and GPUs and now it has all set to release sequence of Solid State Drives under Radeon R7 brand, these new drives are gaming centralized and is supposed to be in the market later this year and will come in 120GB, 240GB and 480GB options.

It’s AMD’s first venture in to the storage space market, having already earned a good reputation in CPU, APU, RAM and GPU markets. The designs seem to give a tough competition to Samsung, Kingston and Crucial.

The three SSDs are assembled using Toshiba’s 19nm process flash node, the drives have 42.7 TB of write and have life expectancy of four years at maximum. It includes 3.5-inch drive adapters for desktops and disk cloning software from Acronis to help out with data transfer. The three models 120 GB, 240 GB and 480 GB will exhibit read speed of 550 MB/s.

The 120GB has a slightly stagnant write speed, surpassing out at 470 MB/s while the 240GB and 480GB models are capable of hitting 530 MB/s.

 

These SSDs use controllers from an entrenched company and share most of their details with other unbranded drives in OCZ’s product category.

AMD is set to become a full fledged package consisting of RAM, GPUs, CPUs and SSD’s which won’t let the customer to opt for different brand for different functions. But it does matter how AMD continues to make good name even in SSDs categories with already competitions there in the market people who has strong feelings for this brand can now add up one more product of the same in their list.

Pricing and availability in the market will soon be declared with probability of price being very competitive when compared to other products in the market. With so many products already lined up MAD is yet toad PSUs to come up as a complete package brand.

The limitation of Optical microscope is not associated with the technology of the microscope rather than it is linked with the property of light. Whereas, nucleus microscope can be utilized for higher technology along with a thin and non-living specimens. The Atomic Force Microscopes are accountable for this predicament since they can assist researchers in stealing a look into the nano scale world. There is merely one negative aspect of these microscopes

Before digging into the downside, let us see how an Atomic Force Microscope works. Foremost, allow me to present some insight about the working of this microscope.  This Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) is a form of scanning probe microscope (SPM). They are utilized in the measurement of height, friction, magnetism and other local properties. The SPM raster scans probe on an area of the sample in order to get a proper image. In the meantime, it also assesses the local attributes of that image.

Then the nanowire probe is exceptionally thin and its thinness can be imagined by the fact, since it is 500 times tenuous than a hair. The function of this nano wire is to stimulate on the surface of the  sample for the measurement. The sole drawback of this microscope probe is that it cannot be used along with the light of a laser. The reason behind this is that the energy of laser over power the sensitive measurement.

Frequent switching of the laser light is the only way out of this problem. Speedily take measurements when the laser is off  and as soon as the nano probe arrive back at the room temperature switch it on again.  Repeating the procedure will provide you with a correct value.

 

The Atomic Microscopes have thousand times higher resolution as compared to the Optical Microscopes
