Read the detailed article @ http://gizmodo.com/engineers-just-broke-the-capacity-limit-for-fiber-optic-1714070706 by Maddie Stone engineers reported in Science that they’d broken the “capacity limit” for fiber optic transmission, opening the door to future networks that carry more data further at lower costs. If you boost the power too much, the beams of laser light that carry data start interfering with one another, until eventually, the signal degrades and information is lost. - optical fiber transmission has certain physical limitations. we heard reports that we’re on the verge of running out of internet,… In experiments performed at UC San Diego’s Qualcomm Institute, electrical engineers were able to increase the power of optical signals nearly 20 fold, deciphering information after it had travelled a record-breaking 7,400 miles, without the use of costly electronic regenerators. the researchers developed wideband “frequency combs” that essentially condition st...

Sony has just released a new Android M dev preview build for 12 various Xperia devices as part of the company’s Open Device program. The list of supported devices includes the Xperia Z3, Xperia Z3 Compact, Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact, Xperia Z2, Xperia Z2 Tablet, Xperia Z1 Compact, Xperia Z1, Xperia Z Ultra, Xperia E3, Xperia M2, Xperia T2 Ultra and Xperia T3.

The real purpose of Buddhist practice is to cut down your addictions and to correct your habitual patterns and this can be achieved as a layperson or as a monk or nun. That brings us to the question of Buddhist ethics—changing habitual patterns and getting rid of the old addictions, such as attachments, and replacing them with love, compassion, generosity, and patience. —Gelek Rinpoche via http://www.tricycle.com/interview/lama-all-seasons.

You’ve all heard of famous inventors such Galileo (telescope) or Karl Benz (automobile), Alexander Graham Bell (telephone) and Benjamin Franklin (bifocal glasses), but do you know who Grace Hopper and Stephanie Kwolek are? One of these women invented the first compiler for computer programming, without which it’s fair to say the world would be a very different place, and the other invented Kevlar, a material five times stronger than steel, currently used around the world to protect people from bullets! Now these are very important inventions, but as history shows us, women’s achievements can often be overlooked when it comes to handing out the correct amount of praise. via 10 female inventors you should definitely know about | ONE | by Clea Guy-Allen ‪ 10 Women who deserves attention in modern History and Lifestyle Technology.

The central philosophy [of Buddhism] is compassion rather than the Darwinian notion of survival of the fittest. The central notion is giving your space rather than clinging to your space and making it secure. It seems to me Buddhism has a tremendous amount of wisdom to contribute right now to the huge world life political dilemma, i.e., what are the limits of compassion? What are the limits in our relationship to chaos and how do we relate to chaos? Right now, politically speaking, basic Buddhist notions are really radically different from the general popular philosophy of life that is taken for granted among intellectuals, even liberal intellectuals. —Allen Ginsberg via Tricycle: The Buddhist Review

'Extreme heat is not just an inconvenience. It kills people' Extreme heat has engulfed India in recent weeks with temperatures exceeding 120°F (49°C) in many areas. Thousands have died so far. Doctors and public health experts say the devastation comes as no surprise: when body temperature exceeds 104°F (40°C), heat stroke can cause a number of ailments and often death. More Excerpts- Humans sweat when their body temperature rises above its 98.6°F (37°C), the normal body temp. While sweating helps cool the body by taking heat with it as it evaporates, it can only do so much. Without a steady intake of fluids, dehydration will eventually take hold. Dehydration reduces blood flow and prevents blood from getting to organs like the kidney or the brain, leaving them with significant cell damage. Finally, these organs will start to shut down, causing further trauma. And from there a whole slew of negative medical effects take hold. For example, a highly-cited New ...
