MIT Artificial Magic Wallet, Suitable For Shopaholic

MIT researchers design a wallet that can understand the financial condition of its users. Not everyone can put the brakes on their impulsive desire to shop.

However, now it can be overcome by the presence of three magic wallet made by the scientists from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

With purses called Proverbial Wallet, users can more easily control their spending, because the purses are designed to be able to know the financial condition of the owner.

The first wallet purse called Bumblebee, is a purse that is equipped with a vibrator. Purse will vibrate each time the account owner of a wallet that was changing. Every time the financial transaction occurs, the wallet will know about it.

He could vibrate with the resonance pattern can be programmed. Even he could also be set to warn of fraud attempt, when the wallet trembled in the absence of a purchase transaction.

Meanwhile, another wallet-called Peacock, can inflate or deflate along with the financial condition of the owner.

The Mother Bear wallet model can be opened or closed in accordance with the financial condition of the owner. It was equipped with a hinge connected to the Internet and know the position of the bank account owner.

When the money the owner is still thick, still easily open the wallet tesebut open. Meanwhile, when the financial condition had been reduced, then the wallet will be increasingly difficult to open, 'forcing' the owner of the wallet to be more frugal.

Purses are connected with the owners bank account data via an Internet connection, via Bluetooth signals emitted by mobile phones. This platform utilizing microprocessor embedded in the wallet. But it also requires an application embedded in mobile phones.

From the data input from the internet about the account owner's wallet, then this system will issue commands to the vibrator or motor output hinges on the wallet.

"This is a way to make something that has no physical properties, such as bank accounts, could be felt physically,''said Henry Holtzman, research director who designed these purses.

Most importantly, these purses are expected to make money the owner can be more 'durable' and in control.

Acer Will Cut Workers In China

For the sake of bringing change for the better, sometimes the employer must take certain steps best. Correspondingly, a leading electronics manufacturer Acer, based in China reportedly agreed recently will soon be laying off most of the workers there.

As we all know, last year was the toughest year in the process of recovery after the economic recession in the IT segment between 2008 and 2009. And not a few of the perpetrators of the TI has taken important steps with one of them was forced to lay off their own labor which is actually the most important part for this.

These unfavorable conditions have led to many employees who are victims of this dismissal that reportedly has reached thousands of people every month. But when the recovery happened last year, then there are several companies that started hiring people again.

More specifically, a report prepared by Digitimes claimed that Acer is reportedly going to cut about 10 percent of the total workforce in the country in China. And who will be affected is estimated at more than 100 people.

The maneuver was selected because, Acer want to streamline operations and eliminate redundancy as well as integrating production, logistics and marketing resources that exist with people who came from Founder Technology.

While the Founder will provide cost service in Suzhou, the Acer itself seems to still have to prepare marketing most branded PC business.

Despite the layoff plan along with all other changes that have been planned, there is the possibility of such world-class PC makers to increase notebook sales by 13% to 15% in 2011 in China.

Could Humans Can Crawling Walls Like Spiderman?

Ever imagine yourself blessed with advantages such as Spiderman, which can creep in tall buildings? Of course it does not seem to make sense, right? Anything could have happened especially after scientists at Cornell introduces us to the tools that can make us crawl on the walls like Spiderman. Hm, how could you?!

The small size tool using the theory of surface tension of water to perform absorption (adhesion) and the ability to crawl like a super hero. This application will be installed on shoes or gloves, so that later people use it to attach to and crawl on the wall.

The device consists of a base plate patterned with microscopic holes. The bottom is a water storage container and its center is a porous layer. The electric field is applied using a 9 volt battery that pumps water through the device and cause the droplets of water through the top layer. The voltage drops on the surface of the open to make this tool more gripping surface.

To disable this adhesion power, electric field just behind, and water withdrawn through the pores, the pores through the wall created between devices and other surfaces with water droplets.

"In our everyday experience, these forces are relatively weak," said Paul Steen, a professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering. "But if you make it in large volumes so you can control it ... you can get a stronger adhesion power."

So far, the device was only useful on objects or creatures that are small. For example, one prototype was made with about 1,000 holes measuring 300 microns, and able to withstand the load of about 30 grams.

But the researchers found that when they reduce the size of the hole and pack in a larger volume, the power will get stronger adhesion. They estimate that a single device with millions of holes measuring 1 micron to withstand loads greater than 6.8 kg.

Steen imagine the future of this prototype on a larger scale, after the pump mechanism is perfected, and adhesive bonding can be made even more powerful. He also imagined the water droplets will close with a thin membrane that quite a lot to control the pump but thick enough to eliminate the former wet.

Steen apparently seemed more interested in imagining a tool that can be used as supporting a criminal act than to use it to protect the world.

"Imagine you can make credit card-sized tool, then put it in an instant the door and that door will open itself," said Steen. "It's interesting to imagine.

The Secret August 17 ,1945

Seventeen August is a great day of independence of Indonesia. On that date, 64 years ago is the most historic day in this country since that day that was the beginning of the revival of the Indonesian people against colonialism as well as a marker in the beginning of the revolution. However, there are some interesting things about our beloved country's independence day is a pity if you did not know.

1. Pain At Soekarno proclaimed independence  
On August 17, 1945 at 08:00 (2 hours Prev Proclamation text reading), Bung Karno was still sleeping soundly in her room, in the East Pegangsaan Road 56, Cikini. He was hit by malaria symptoms tertiana. High body temperature and very tired after staying up late with his friends preparing the draft manuscript proclamation in the house of Admiral Maeda. At that time, right in the middle of the fasting month of Ramadan.

"Pating greges", lamented Dr Bung Karno once awakened. Suharto, his favorite doctor. Then the blood flowed and downing pills chinineurethan intramusculair chinine bromine. Then he slept again. At 09.00, Bung Karno awakened. White spruce and white and meet her friend, Bung Hatta.

Exactly at 10.00, both proclaimed the independence of Indonesia from the porch of the house. "So brothers and sisters! We all have freedom!", Said Bung Karno in front of a handful of true patriots patriots. They then sang the national anthem while waving the flag of red and white heritage. After the brief ceremony, the Bung Karno back to her bedroom, still feverish. But a revolution has begun.

2. Independence Ceremony Made Very Simple  
Indonesia's Independence Proclamation Ceremony was held without a protocol, no corps music, no conductor, and no pancaragam. Flagpole was made from bamboo stems are rough, and planted just a few minutes before the ceremony. But that's, fact which happened in a sacred ceremony that looked forward to for more than 300 years!

3. Flag of Sheets  
Heritage Flag of the Red and White is the first official flag for the Republic. But from what it was made sacred flag? White color of the bed linen cloth and red color of the fabric handyman soto!

4. Akbar Tanjung So the First Minister "The Indonesian Original"  
43 years after independence, Indonesia has a first minister who is really "indigenous Indonesian people." Because all the previous ministers were born before August 17, 1945. That means, they never became citizens of the Netherlands East Indies and / or occupation of Japan, because the state law of the Republic of Indonesia does not yet exist at that time. "The speaker of Indonesia's first" the minister was Ir Akbar Tanjung (born in Sibolga, North Sumatra, 30 August 1945), as Minister of Youth and Sports in Development Cabinet (1988-1993).

5. Led Kalimantan 3 Head of State  
According to the Proclamation of August 17, 1945, Borneo is an integral part of Indonesian territory. In fact, the most unique island in the world. On the island, there are 3 heads of state who ruled! President Suharto (4 regions ruled province), Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad (Sabah and Sarawak) and Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah (Brunei).

6. Setting Revolution in Indonesia Appointed Into Film  
There is another close relationship between 17 August and Hollywood. Title of speech August 17, 1964, "Year Perilocoso Vivere" (Years Full Danger), has been used as the title of a movie - in English: "The Year of Living Dangerously." The film tells pegalaman an Australian journalist who was assigned to Indonesia in the 1960s, before the bloody incident at detik2 th 1965. In 1984, a movie starring Mel Gibson that got the Oscar for foreign movie category!

7. Proclamation Original Manuscript Found in Trash   
The original manuscript text of the Proclamation of Independence of Indonesia which was handwritten by Bung Karno and Bung Hatta dictated by, was never held and stored by the Government! Surprisingly, it precisely historical manuscripts stored properly by the journalist BM Diah. Diah found the draft proclamation is in the trash at the house of Admiral Maeda, August 17, 1945 early morning, after being copied and typed by Sajuti Melik.Pada May 29, 1992, Diah submit the draft to President Soeharto, after saving for 46 years 9 months 19 days.

8. Soekarno Bathing Passenger Planes with Urine  
Taste-taste in this world, only the founding fathers of Indonesia had a shower urine. When I got home from Dalat (Cipanasnya Saigon), Vietnam, August 13, 1945, with Sukarno Hatta, dr Radjiman Wedyodiningrat and Dr. Suharto (personal physician Bung Karno) fighter bomber boarded a double motor. On the way, Sukarno wanted to urinate, but there was no place. After thought, sought a way out for the desire that is not restrained it. Seeing the small holes in the wall plane, that's where his little urination Bung Karno release. Because the wind was so strong at all, bersemburlah urine and soaked it all passengers.

9. Negative Photo Film Deposited Under the Tree of Independence  
Thanks to the lies, the events of August 17, 1945 Proclamation sacred can be documented and witnessed by us until now. When the Japanese army wanted to rob the negative images that perpetuate such an important event, Frans Mendoer, a photographer who recorded the moments of the proclamation, lie to them. She said it had no negative and already submitted to the Barisan Pioneer, a movement of struggle. Hearing the answer, the Japanese were outraged. Though the film negatives were planted under a tree in the courtyard of King Asia Daily Office. After the Japanese left, the negative diafdruk and widely published to be enjoyed until now. How about being honest Mendoer in Japan?

10. Bung Hatta Proclamation For Lying  
This time, Bung Hatta, who lied for the sake of the proclamation. Time period of revolution, Bung Karno, Bung Hatta ordered for assistance weapons to Jawaharlal Nehru. How to go to India was done in secret. Bung Hatta wearing a passport under the name "Abdullah, co-pilot." Then he departed with a piloted aircraft Biju Patnaik, an industrialist who later became ministers in the cabinet of Prime Minister Morarji Desai. Bung Hatta treated very respectfully by Nehru and asked to meet Mahatma Gandhi.

Hatta Nehru is an old friend since the 1920s and knows the struggle Dandhi Hatta. After the meeting, Gandhi was told by Nehru that "Abdullah" is Mohammad Hatta. What Gandhi's reaction? He was furious to Nehru, because not told the truth. "You are a wild!" charismatic leaders said it to Nehru.

11. Flag Red White and the Seven Celebrations Dozens Not in Indonesia Only  
Flag Red White and celebration of the seven teens is not the monopoly of Indonesia. Flag pattern similar to the flag of the Kingdom of Monaco and the mode of its independence day with the day the proclamation of the Republic of Gabon (a West African countries) of the free August 17, 1960. In addition, it is debatable whether Indonesia Raya song truly original work of WR Supratman MERP, or 'inspired' by the French song "Les Marseilles", which has a very similar nada2.

12. No Soekarnp-Hatta Street Name  
Jakarta, Indonesia where diproklamasikannya independence and the city where the Bung Karno and Bung Hatta fight, do not provide sufficient benefits to commemorate the co-proclaimer Indonesia. Until this moment, no "Road Soekarno-Hatta" in the capital Jakarta. In fact, their names have never perpetuated for an object of any public facility building until 1985, when an airport was inaugurated by wearing their name.

13. It is only the degree Oral degree Proclaimers  
Degree Proclaimers to Bung Karno and Bung Hatta, just the title given the people of Indonesia spoken to him for 41 years! Therefore, the new 1986 Permerintah proclaimer officially award to them.

14. Indonesia Probably Only Have More Than Two Proclaimers  
If only proposal received Bung Hatta, Indonesia would have "more than two" proclaimer. The period following the Proclamation of Indonesian Independence concepts finished manuscript is prepared in the home of Admiral Maeda, Jl Imam Bonjol No. 1, Jakarta, Bung Hatta propose all those present at the meeting earlier that day signed the text of the proclamation to be read out in the morning. But the proposal was rejected by Soekarni, a young man in attendance. The meeting was attended by Soekarno, Hatta and candidates who failed proclaimer: Achmad Soebardjo, Soekarni and Sajuti Melik. "Huh, given the chance to make history not want to", grumbled Bung Hatta because his proposal was rejected.

There are about one billion transistors in the second generation of Intel Core processors. When compared with the vehicle consisting of one billion parts Toyota today had 30,000 parts it took 114 years for the most productive car factory to assemble a car.

If considered as a population of a country, the second-generation Intel Core processor will be the second country with the highest population in the world. Currently, second-generation Intel Core transistor is 995 million. If that amount of population, meaning that Intel just lost to China and ahead of India,

This second generation has 540 million transistors more than the combined number of all cars in the European Union, the United States, and Asia Pacific are listed.

Cholil said that in Islam, respect the flag is not allowed. Cholil referring to the fatwa of Saudi Arabia is ruled by the Institute for Studies and Research Fatwa Still in December 2003 which forbids a Muslim to stand up to salute the flag and national anthem.

MUI Chairman KH Java Abdusshomad beritajatim.com Buchori when confirmed on Tuesday (03/22/2011) claimed to have not heard of any of the MUI fatwa haram center about respect for the flag and national anthem.

"It's probably just a personal opinion, not a decision issued by the institution fatwa MUI. If there should be national fatwa. It must be seen first context, the public should not be affected first," he said.

The same thing also disclosed Chairman of East Java PWNU Mutawakil Alallah KH. It ensures, respect for the flag and national anthem as well as with respect both parents, so it is not forbidden in any religion

"There is no theorem which forbids, if worship and glorify it was unlawful. But if you just respect, yes it's okay and does not need to be banned," he said.

According Cholil, how to respect the right in Islam is to give greetings. However, he wrote again, meaning greeting is praying, so it is not worth it at the flag, which is an inanimate object.

Cholil said that if we want to respect the country, then the best way is to listen and obey the rules state that are not worth as immoral and Islamic law and the praying of the state apparatus in order to always have God's guidance

10 Signs and Causes Destruction of Earth

Along with the rapid advancement of age and the increasing age of the earth, many experts argue that this earth can not be categorized into the planet
who are still healthy, the cause is perceived by some to be determinant factors that change the status of the earth become unhealthy.

Here are ten categories which states that the earth is not healthy:

1. Melting of ice in the Arctic (North Pole)

A recent study estimates that could melt the Arctic waters and is free of summer ice at least 30 years sooner than previous estimates.
Melting of ice in the Arctic this could strengthen the trend of global warming and endanger the occupants own the North Pole, from humans to polar bears.

2. The collapse of Antarctic ice sheet (Antarctica)

Wilkins is one of nine Antarctic ice sheet has receded or collapsed in recent decades. The layer of ice that fell the most dramatic is the Larsen A and B, which collapsed suddenly in 1995 and 2002

3. The hole in the ozone layer

Earth's ozone layer protects the occupants by absorbing the harmful ultraviolet rays. But much use of chemicals and pollutants can make a big hole in the ozone layer. It takes time to tens of years to restore the ozone layer as before.

4. The spread of marine dead zones

Zone of the Dead Sea is the sea bag in which the oxygen runs out so many fish, shellfish and other spesien that can not survive, as there is in the Gulf of Mexico.
This zone is formed when fertilizer runoff from the river and make a lot of algae (marine plants that produce oxygen) die and decompose.

5. Crisis sea corals

Coral reefs are important marine habitats for many marine species. But the last few decades, many coral reefs are in crisis due to overfishing, marine pollution, diseases, warming and ocean acidification.
Ocean waters become more acidic because it absorbs carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. That is, the more air pollution, more acidic ocean water.

6. Deforestation

Areas of rain, especially rain forests are the main areas of biodiversity, forests absorb carbon dioxide and produce oxygen. But the rate of global deforestation could reach about 32 million hectares per year.
In addition, the drought caused by global warming could worsen the situation of forests in some areas.

7. Water Pollution

Two thirds of planet Earth is covered with surface water. When water is polluted, of course, can lead to living things on earth can not live. The impact of global warming are also changing the pattern of availability of water for drinking and agriculture.

8. Buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere

Carbon dioxide and other heat trapping gases are pollutants that can increase greenhouse gas emissions. Number of factory and vehicle emissions will increase the amount of greenhouse gas emissions.


9. Endangered Animals

When habitat change and threatened, the animals in it are also under pressure. 2008 Red List of endangered species published by the World Conservation Union identified the almost 45,000 species threatened with extinction.

10. The rapid rate of population growth

In 2007, world population exceeds 6 billion. That year also marked the first time in history more people live in urban rather than rural areas. Six billion people continue to compete for survival with natural resources are limited, such as water, food and fuel.
Life on earth in terms of good and bad depending on what is done by the man himself who live in it, managing the earth should have the responsibility of us as creatures of this earth god.

In addition, the more conservative car buyers choose the color of their car.

Why not steal a car thief brightly colored?

Vollaard found, the resale value of cars is a major determining factor in car theft. Simply put, the more the color of the car 'out there,' the lower the selling value of the return.

According to studies, most often thieves steal cars for resale, 85% of total car thefts are in this category.

"The difference in level between car theft and did not indicate the general color, resale value is on the minds of car thieves," said Vollaard. We found evidence, the resale value of this difference is more encouraging than the fear of arrest by the police, he added.

"Thieves avoid brightly colored cars because did not want to attract the attention of the authorities is not a reason," said the study further.

The red color is very popular in the Netherlands in the early 1990s, even 25% of new cars are red. However, the popularity of color that fall over time, and now only 5% of new cars are red. According to DuPont, this decline is a trend worldwide.

The study found, regardless of thieves caught in a brightly-colored car. In the 1990s, a red car theft higher. Popularity of a red car linked closely to the prevalence of red among the stolen car. Unusual colored car as good as buying a car safety device is expensive, Vollaard suggested.

"Pink is the color of the most perfect deterrent,"
