Taxi-driver software to

guide you through

jams

Ever marvelled at a taxi-driver's knowledge of a city's short cuts? Well, you can now be happy, as

soon you would be able to take advantage of that know-how in your own car.

Initial tests of a virtual cab driver have suggested that it could shave over 10 per cent off journey times

through crowded urban streets, reports New Scientist.

The system, known as T-Drive, starts by monitoring the routes taken by cabbies at different times of day.

To test their idea, the researchers used three months of movement data, representing 400 million kilometres

of travel, from a fleet of 33,000 taxis in Beijing.

The taxi trajectories were merged to reveal the roads that cab drivers prefer. Given a request to navigate

between any two points in the city, the system could then choose a route based on the roads that are popular

with cabbies at that time of day.

For a real-world test, the Microsoft engineers asked a pair of drivers to travel between two

locations in Beijing: one was given a route suggested by T-Drive, the other used Google Maps.

Averaged over 30 trials, the two systems produced routes that were roughly the same in length. But T-

Drive seemed to know how to avoid stoppages: it produced average drive times of 23 minutes, almost

4 minutes faster than Google Maps.

Yu Zheng, an engineer at Microsoft Research Asia in Beijing, said the advantage comes from the

drivers' intimate knowledge of Beijing streets.

. . . Japan based consumer electronics manufacturer Toshiba has announced the world´s first 3D Flat panel-TV without glasses. Toshiba has launched two 3D TVs with a screen size of 12 inch and 20 inch in Japan’s biggest consumer electronics show, CEATEC 2010. Toshiba claimed that the new integral imaging system helps the users to experience 3D videos without wearing 3D glasses. The new Toshiba 3D TV uses a perpendicular lenticular sheet, an array of small lenses that directs light from the display to nine points in front of the set. If a viewer sits within the optimal viewing zone, the brain integrates these points into a single 3D image.

Logitech has unveiled a new solar-powered wireless keyboard - the K750 The slim, wireless K750 sports a couple of solar strips above the row of function keys which provide the keyboard's power. The company says that it can draw energy from internal lighting as well as the sun, and will keep on going even after being kept in the dark for a few months. The Logitech Wireless Solar Keyboard K750 is the company's first keyboard powered wholly by light. In addition to sunlight, the device's integrated solar panel will also be able to draw power from ambient, indoor light. The chiclet-type keys benefit from Logitech's Incurve design, which is said to provide a little extra keying comfort by supporting "the shape of your fingertips, while helping guide your fingers to the right key." The K750 is a cordless keyboard and connects wirelessly with Logitech's low profile Unifying receiver over a 128-bit AES encrypted, 2.4GHz connection. The company has also developed a solar power app that includes a lux meter to help position the keyboard in the best sunbathing position, and gives useful information about the keyboard's battery levels. It'll even send out an alert when power gets low.

Presidential State Car

The current presidential limousine entered service on January 20, 2009. According to GM, the

manufacturer, the "2009 Cadillac Presidential Limousine" is the first not to carry a specific model

name. The vehicle's outward appearance is that of an enlarged Cadillac DTS limousine; however, the

vehicle's chassis and driveline are actually sourced from the GMC Topkick commercial truck. Styling

elements are sourced from a variety of GM vehicles; for example, the car uses Cadillac

Escalade headlights, not DTS units. Although a price tag has not been announced, according

to London-based newspaper The Guardian, each limousine cost the U.S. tax

payers US$300,000. During his presidency, Barack Obama has also

used the limousine of former President George W. Bush

consistently, during visits nationwide and internationally.

g

General specifications Most details of the car are classified for security reasons. It is completely fitted with military

grade armor at least five inches thick, and the wheels are fitted with run flat tires. Due to the

thickness of the glass, much natural light is excluded, so a fluorescent halo lighting system in

the headliner is essential.

The car can seat seven people, including the president. The front seats two, and includes a

console-mounted communications center. A glass partition divides the front from back. Three

rear facing seats are in the back, with cushions that are able to fold over the partition. The two

rear seats are reserved for the president and another passenger; these seats have the ability to

recline individually. A folding desk is between the two rear seats. Storage compartments in the

interior panels of the car contain communications equipment. The Secret Service refers to the

heavily-armored vehicle as "the beast".

The United States government also operates similarly designed limousines for VIP guests,

visiting heads of government, and heads of state.

SPACE PHOTOS

cosmic spiral,eclipsed sun and more

The pictures, taken between March 2000 and August 2009, come together to

reveal colorful details in the star-forming galaxy, which lies 68 million light-

years away. The galaxy's dusty arms are lined with young star clusters (blue)

and glowing hydrogen clouds (pink) where new stars are being born

Slated to launch November 1, Discovery and the STS-133 crew will carry

supplies, spare parts, and the humanoid robot Robonaut 2 to the

International Space Station.

The dark disk of the moon partially eclipses the sun in a new picture,

released October 7 by NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory. The orbiting

telescope captured the lunar transit as the craft was taking pictures of the

star in extreme ultraviolet light.

Emerging from the darkness like a deep-sea jellyfish (pictures), the planetary

nebula NGC 6210 shows off its oddball structure in a new picture from the

Hubble Space Telescope. The nebula sits about 6,500 light-years away from

Earth in the constellation Hercules. Planetary nebulae actually have little to

do with planets. Instead, the clouds of dust and gas are leftovers from the

quiet deaths of sunlike stars. These medium-size stars shed their outer layers

as they perish, leaving behind dense cores called white dwarfs, which are

surrounded by nebulae of different shapes and sizes.

It’s only about 1meter tall but

a single hop can cover

It's called a penguin.

But this is no ordinary penguin.

It’s the lunar penguin - a squat,

four-legged lunar lander that

looks nothing like a penguin. It

has a few tiny jump boosters

underneath it and on its sides to

propel it along.

So why was it called a penguin?

Probably because it was first

designed to land on the South

Pole of the moon to search for ice.

But scientists can see all sorts of

other possibilities for the hopping

penguin.

Its design has been based on

tactical weapons technologies –

the rocket engines have been

developed from ground-based

missile defense systems, and its

guidance system comes from the

Tomahawk cruise missile.

Everything has been adapted for

moon work.

So are we soon going to see lots of penguins hopping around the moon?

Not until the year 2012 at least, when these robotic scouts will be used

to search for safe landing spots and useful minerals for colonists to mine.

How much time do you spend at School? Not much

really. Have a look at these figures.

Saturday and Sunday are holidays. Together they

equal 104 days a year.

If u sleep 8 hours a day that adds up to 2,920 hours,

or 122 days a year.

You would probably spend about 2 hours a day

eating which adds up to 30 days a year.

Add on about 30 minutes a day for showering, doing your hair and

cleaning your teeth - that equals 8 days.

School holidays equal about 10 weeks, or 70 days

Add all these days together and you get 364.That Leaves you just

one day to go to school. And we haven’t counted national holidays!

What’s wrong with these figures?

Boris the bull has just swallowed a time bomb and Its going to go

Machu Picchu may have been less of a

city, than a spiritual destination for the Inca. New research argues the

ceremonial path into the city was

conceived as a replica of the path

followed by the first Incas in cosmological myth.

MYSTERY

REVEALED Machu Picchu, the "lost city of the Incas," was not a true city but rather a pilgrimage center symbolically connected to the Andean vision of the cosmos, an Italian study has concluded. "This island had a very important sanctuary which was a destination of pilgrimage. An apparently insignificant rock was believed to be the place of birth of the sun, and therefore of the Inca civilization," told NATGEO News. The Inca, who ruled the largest empire on Earth by the time their last emperor, Atahualpa, was garroted by Spanish conquistadors in 1533, believed that the Sun God was their ancestor Theories about the city's function abound. Machu Picchu has been wrongly identified as the traditional birthplace of the Inca people, their final stronghold, and a sacred center occupied by virgins devoted to the Sun God. "Magli's argument that Machu Picchu was a pilgrimage site and not a royal estate is well worth considering, although it is in need of a much more substantial proof. There is no reason to believe that it could not have been both," Protzen, a leading expert on Inca architecture, told NATGEO News.

CANDLE

STUBS…

In every home there are candle stubs that are too short to

light and too long to throw away. These stubs are very useful

as they are made of wax that melts at low temperature and

burns at high. When wax cools and hardens, it forms a

moisture-proof barrier and it can be a great lubricant in some

uses. These stubs are a great household resource for some

simple solutions. Let's explore the uses of these stubs that are

just lying in a drawer.

Great Lubricant

Candle wax can be used a

lubricant for drawers, sliding

doors and windows, smooth

running of cutting tools like

saw and drill bits. Simply scrub

the wax to dresser drawer

sides and bottom and see the

magic.

New Candles from Old It takes only a few minutes to save some bucks and excite your

brains. The easiest way to make new candles from leftover candle stubs

is to melt them in a boiler. Once the wax totally melts and

becomes liquid, remove any foreign particles and burnt wicks.

Dip a new wick (a thick twisted thread) in hot wax, tie one end

to a pencil and lay the pencil over a Styrofoam cup so the wick

hangs straight to the bottom.

Now pour the liquid wax in to the cup and let it harden. Now,

peel off the Styrofoam cup and your own-made candle is ready

to spread light around you.

Fire Starter We often face problem while

setting campfire while outing

and picnics. Candle stubs are

great fire starters and we

always have some left at

home. Just throw some

candle stubs in to the

firewood and light it. By the

time the stubs are consumed,

the fire will be blazing.

Tips for Effective Participation in a GD

Keep your knowledge of current affairs-especially ‘hot’ topics up to date.

If it is a fresher’s interview for an industry or bank etc. then one should gather knowledge about their mission, systems and challenges etc.

It may be useful to hold mock group discussions with friends or classmates.

Preparedness and self-confidence are the keys to success in a group discussion.

Grab an opportunity to speak but never lose sight of the main topic.

Be aggressive in presenting your viewpoint but do not be arrogant.

Speak clearly and loudly enough for everyone to hear what you are saying.

Don’t just say that you agree or disagree with a particular person-present your viewpoint with clear explanations.

Remember that in a discussion a person is judged for the leadership qualities and original thinking. Hence speak fast and sensibly.

Listen attentively to others so that an important point is not missed out. Sometimes if any speaker cannot explain the point properly, you can adopt and explain the point as your own.

You get evaluated not for your thinking but expressing your viewpoint and in the manner you do so.

If you perceive that the discussion is moving towards its end, try to quickly take an opportunity to summarize it and draw logical conclusions.

During the discussion try to maintain an eye contact with the other speakers and do not focus attention on the moderator alone.

Your confidence and communication skills are the best tools in a Group Discussion. Use them deftly and expertly.

CONCLUSION Group Discussions are interactive. Remember that you will be interrupted and be prepared to

hold your ground by making your points clearly and forcefully.

Structure of Group Discussions As obvious from the name itself, Group Discussions take place

within a group of people. (say 10 to 30)

A Debatable Topic or Problem is presented either in writing

on a blackboard or is stated verbally by the person in charge,

representing the organization.

This person is called the Moderator or Coordinator or

Facilitator.

There is also a panel of judges, who just silently observe and

evaluate the candidates.

Perfecting the Art of Group Discussions

Responsibilities of the Moderator are: -

To introduce the topic to the group of candidates. Guide and control the flow of discussion among the group members. Maintain discipline, as the discussion may get too aggressive or even unruly at times. Keep the time-as only a limited period; say of 20-30 minutes is assigned to each session. To also judge and evaluate the candidates on the basis of their initiative, capabilities and other

factors of importance (This is valid when the moderator is also acting as a judge)

The Management institutes and Companies

organize Group Discussions for the purpose

admissions and recruitments of freshers. The

purpose of GD being: -

To judge the leadership qualities.

Analytical abilities.

Problem solving capabilities.

Communication Skills.

Antilla's distinctive shape is based on Vaastu, which is

an Indian tradition similar to Feng Shui. It is said that it

moves energy beneficially through the building by

strategically placing materials, rooms, and objects.

Which is obviously crucial if you are one of the world’s

richest men and have billions of dollars. In our opinion

it's perfect and embraces every item an aspiring

billionaire would want to have in their home.

ANTILLA FACTS

1. In the lower section it has 6

floors dedicated solely to

parking his unique exotic cars.

It can fit 168 cars in total. Just

above the parking structure is a

service center.

2.This house will have a staff of

600 employees. And there will

be only 6 people actually living

there including Mukesh, Nita

(His wife), their 3 children and

his mother.

3.The structure was designed by

architects Perkins + Will and

Hirsch Bedner Associates.

4.It has 400,000 sq. ft. of

interior living space.

5.There are two helicopter

landing pads on the roof.

6.A home theater with a seating

capacity of 50.

7.80% of its ceilings are

covered in crystal chandeliers.

8.It has nine elevators, a health

club, a swimming pool, an ice

room (fake snow), and a

fullscale 3 story garden.

This is the largest and the most costly single-family home ever built. It belongs to MUKESH

AMBANI who is currently the richest man in India (5th in the world) with an estimated net worth

of 43 Billion (Forbes: Richest Men March 2008). He is owner of Reliance Industries which is the

number one producer of steel in the world.

The Ambani home, named Antilla, has no two single floors alike. Neither the plans nor the

materials could be used twice as requested by Nita Ambani. This massive home finished in January

of 2009 and encompasses some of the most breathtaking architecture and amenities imaginable. It

costs upwards of 1 billion US dollars. It towers 550 feet over the city of Mumbai, India, that is twice

as high as the tallest building in Mumbai. Located off the western coast of India overlooking the

Indian Sea this building stands 60 stories tall. But in fact it only has 27 stories and each story is just

over double the size of a standard one.
