Orion constellation will undergo supernova
“Supernova remnant got really big, really fast. It’s two to three times bigger than we would expect for a supernova that was witnessed exploding nearly 2,000 years ago. Now, we’ve been able to finally pinpoint the cause,” said Brian Williams, Astronomer at North Carolina State University in Raleigh.
Recent updates on a mystery that began almost 2,000 years ago, two NASA space telescope have helped find answers to some of the mysteries that Chinese astronomers witnessed what would turn out to be an exploding star in the sky. New development unfolds as NASA’s Spitzer Space Telescope and Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer, or WISE, explained how the first supernova ever recorded happened and how it exploded remains spread out to great distances.
In addition, for the first time, these new observations also show that a white dwarf can create a cavity around it before blowing up in type la event. When the big explosion happened, the blown out parts would have travelled unimpeded by gas and dust.
U.S. President Barack Obama during the U.S. Naval Academy Class of 2009 graduation
“This is somebody who for 40 years has terrorized his country and supported terrorism. Gadhafi had an opportunity during the Arab Spring to finally let loose of his grip on power and to peacefully transition into democracy. We gave him ample opportunity, and he wouldn’t do it,” said U.S. President Barack Obama on Leno’s show.
Leno brings the issue on the situation in Libya, asking the Obama for his comment or reaction to the death of Moammar Gadhafi. He strongly said he didn’t enjoy seeing Gadhafi’s violent death, and continues to talk about politics and foreign policy. This Obama’s second visit to Jay Leno’s NBC late-night talk show, “The tonight Show.”
Obama also stresses that, ““We gave him ample opportunity, and he wouldn’t do it. And, obviously, you never like to see anybody come to the kind of end that he did, but I think it obviously sends a strong message around the world to dictators that.”
Steve Jobs accepting the Entrepreneur of the Year award
“You were special, we chose you out, you were chosen. And that helped give Jobs a sense of being special… For Steve Jobs, he felt throughout his life that he was on a journey – and he often said, ‘The journey was the reward.” But that journey involved resolving conflicts about… his role in this world: why he was here and what it was all about,” said Walter Isaacson, Biographer.
Steve Jobs died, but he still lives and his legacy will continue to touch people lives from all over the world. When Steve finally died from a battle with the “Big C”, people across the world gathered and remembered him as great contributor to the world of technology and information.
Steve Jobs life story has graced eBook and it remained at the top of the chart, and so far, no one paralleled the phenomenon he shared with Amazon’s. Analysts said it is estimated to stay at the same spot longer than expected.
Toshiba Portege Tablet PC
“A large majority of those who have not paid directly for news on their tablet remain reluctant to do so, even if that was the only way to get news from their favourite sources. When it was launched, many observers believed that the tablet might help change the experience of news consumers and the economic ground rules of digital news consumption. That belief was based on the sense that people would consume information on tablets largely through special applications or apps that provide content from a favourite news organization,” this according to the new survey conducted by the Pew Research Centre’s Project for Excellence in Journalism.
The new survey shows that almost 80% of tablet users never forget to use their tablets on a daily basis for 90 minutes or so. Users maximize the uses of the tablet within that 90-minute opportunity. Email activities are the number one tablet-based task, followed by games, social networking, watching movies, and reading books.
News publication industry is now facing one problem, “How to make money from their information?” Well, New York Times and Wall Street Journal have come up with a scheme that allows readers to have access to a limited amount of news for free, but once you reached a certain quota, you have to pay subscription fee for it.
Old Koran manuscript
“This opens up a window for people who study the history of ideas and the history of secret societies. Historians believe that secret societies have had a role in revolutions, but all that is yet to be worked out, and a big part of the reason is because so many documents are enciphered,” said Kevin Knight, Computer Scientist, University of Southern California’s Information Sciences Institute.
A group of scientist headed by Knight have discovered ways on how to decode an old Copiale Cipher by Germany; it is a 105 page and 75,000 characters. Knight and his colleagues used innovative machine translation software to reveal the code used by the secret society three centuries ago. Not only, it reveals the amazing history of such societies, it also contributed to yet another great discovery on the field of cryptographic process.
Knight also said, “When you get a new code and look at it, the possibilities are nearly infinite. Once you come up with a hypothesis bases on your intuition as a human, you can turn over a lot of grunt work to the computer. It took quite a long time and resulted in complete failure.”
Steve Jobs acceptance speech for being Entrepreneur of the Year award
“Among his last advice he had for me, and for all of you, was to never ask what he would do. ‘Just do what’s right. Everyone spent all their time thinking and talking about what Walt would do,” said Tim Cook, Chief Executive Officer of Apple.
Tim Cook took the regular responsibilities of Jobs, when he resigned in August. Jobs have to take three medical leaves and died eventually after years of battling the big “C”. With Jobs return to the company, he blasts the sales with his introduction of iPhone and iPad tablet, putting gadgets and electronics into a new level.
Jobs participation and leading instinct have open ways for Apple to become icon in the industry. For years, numbers of company are trying to outcasts Apple’s power, but failed, it is because Jobs is always on the look out. Jobs spent his life in driving Apple Company into the paths of being huge and being big.
A cup of coffee
“Given the nearly 1 million new cases of (basal cell carcinoma diagnosed each year in the United States, daily dietary factors with even small protective effects may have great public health impact. It is likely that caffeine has a protective effect. BBC risk was inversely associated with caffeine,” said Fengju Song, PhD, Co-author of the study, Postdoctoral fellow in Dermatology, Brigham and Women’s Hospital.
According to a new research, drinking more than three cups of coffee a day can lower the risk of developing basal cell carcinoma (BCC) compared to women who drank less than one cup a month. The research also shows that men, who drink more than three cups of coffee on a daily basis, had a 9 percent reduction in their risk of getting basal carcinoma.
Song also said, “Mouse studies have shown that oral or topical caffeine promotes elimination of UV-damaged keratinobytes via apoptosis and markedly reduces subsequent SCC development. However, in our cohort analysis, we did not find any inverse association between coffee consumption and the risk of SCC.”
Spilled Pills
FDA is now saying “YES” to the first generic versions of the drug Zyprexa. Zyprexa is an expensive medicine for treating schizophrenia and bipolar mood disorder.
Now, family inflicted with the disease with low income generating salaries can now have the option to use the drugs. This new low-cost versions of the drug will be utilizing an Indian Generic drugmaker Dr. Reddy’s Laboratories and by Teva Pharmaceutical Industries which is based in Israel.
Zyprexa generated sales of $5.7 billion in last year alone, the happy drugmaker is the Eli Lilly and Co Inc, the information is based on the data provided by the IMS Health- a prescription tracking Company.
The cost efficiency of the new drug is incomparable to the very expensive Zyprexa. Generic version of Zyprexa is only 20%-30% of its price, a wooping 80% discount value. Zyprexa is used to control the levels of dopamine in the brain, it is a brain chemical responsible for behaviour, movement, and moods.

Jennifer Lopez, Kostas Martakis, and Marc Anthony
“After I sang the song, I’m standing there, and I realized that I did bare a little bit of my thoughts in this song. I also acted it out, kind of, for the audience. The way they received it was very touching. I think that they felt what I felt, which is, you know, I’m just a girl, just like everybody else, trying to find my way. I felt like they got that, and they understood it, and we were all like one at that moment,” said the “American Idol” judge, Jennifer Lopez.
