Google unveils prototype smartphone with 3D sensors
February 21, 2014 - 14:42 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - Google has unveiled a prototype smartphone with "customised hardware and software" that enables it to create 3D maps of a user's surroundings, according to BBC News.
The device's sensors allow it make over 250,000 3D measurements every second and update its position in real-time.
Google said potential applications may include indoor mapping, helping the visually-impaired navigate unfamiliar indoor places unassisted and gaming. It has offered 200 prototypes to developers keen to make apps for it.
Google said its Advanced Technology and Projects (ATAP) unit developed the phone as part of a project called Project Tango with help from researchers at various institutions.
"We are physical beings that live in a 3D world. Yet, our mobile devices assume that physical world ends at the boundaries of the screen," the firm said.
"The goal of Project Tango is to give mobile devices a human-scale understanding of space and motion. We're ready to put early prototypes into the hands of developers that can imagine the possibilities and help bring those ideas into reality," it added.
Various firms, including Google, have been looking at developing niche technology.
For its part, Google has already unveiled its Google Glass - the intelligent specs due to go on sale later this year.
Earlier this year, the firm said it is also working on a "smart contact lens" that can help measure glucose levels in tears.
Also in January, it bought DeepMind, a UK firm that specializes in artificial intelligence, for £400mln. According to DeepMind's website it builds "powerful general-purpose learning algorithms".
Analysts say that firms have been looking at ways to help bring the advances made in technology to practical use in every day life in an attempt to attract more customers.
"The focus is not just on the hardware or the device, but on what the gadget can actually do," Bryan Ma, associate vice president at research firm IDC told the BBC. "It is all about taking it to the next level of usage - be it augmented reality, help with basic healthcare or even just creating better maps."
Ma added that once fully developed such gadgets could have huge commercial applications as well - which would help drive demand not only among individual consumers but also businesses and corporate users.
"There could be a lot of opportunity waiting to be exploited in this area," he said.
Last year, Japanese firm Sony filed a patent for a "SmartWig", with healthcare cited as one of its potential uses along with the ability to help blind people navigate roads. It said the wig could use a combination of sensors to help collect information such as temperature, pulse and blood pressure of the wearer.

GOOD DAY FOR: Mixing business and leisure, after an Australian study found that employees who surf the Internet for personal reasons on company time are about 9 percent more productive than those who don't. The study looked only at workers who check email or Facebook, watch YouTube, read the news, or do other non-work surfing for less that 20 percent of their workday. "People need to zone out for a bit to get back their concentration," said University of Melbourne researcher Brent Coker, who conducted the study. (Reuters, in Wired)
BAD DAY FOR: Switching jobs, after the U.S. unemployment rate rose to 8.5 percent, its highest level since 1983, according to new Labor Department figures. The U.S. economy shed 663,000 jobs in March, the government said, and those with jobs worked fewer hours: a record low of 33.2 hours a week on average, from 33.3 hours. About 5.1 million people have lost their jobs in the current recession. (Bloomberg)

So far, this has worked. * Obama's overt support of the M.B. and the distancing America from Israel means the Palestinian's political support has lost it's teeth. Israel already feels isolated. * A moderate response to Hamas's attacks will bring about exactly the same amount of isolation as a finishing attack. Thus a finishing attack should be executed. Israel's only logical course of action is to utterly destroy the West Bank and kill / evict everyone in it. Only then will they have peace on that border. There is no other real long-term solution because the Palestinians don't recognize Israel's right to exist. I know this above solution will anger many of you. But the time is rapidly approaching when such measures will be taken not only in Palestine but all over the world. Pax America is about to fall and woe to those on the losing side...even America. [/quote] ^^This^^ Well put!! [/quote] Fingulas is correct in some points above, but he is also dead WRONG on the most important one: it IS important who's "right or wrong morally". In this cinredible clusterfuck, Israel is the good guys . Israel are the morally RIGHT party. Make no mistakes about it. Because whatever one's position on the disputed territories or peace process.... NOONE who has any sense of [b]justice, truth or history[/b] of the region, sides with HAMAS, Islamic Jihad, PRC, PFLP, Fateh's armed wing al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigade -- nevermind the actual Salafist Al-Qaeda cells sprouting in Gaza in recent years. Noone. Even the normally anti-Israeli Amnesty International has been recently forced to admit that EACH instance of Gaza terror groups firing rockets at Israeli population centers constitutes 2 instances of [b]WAR-CRIME[/b]: because it targets Jewish civilians and also because by firing from civilian infrastructure in Gaza, jihadis invite their OWN people to be killed as collateral damage in retaliatory strikes. Each instance. And there has been literally 10,000 of them in the last 10 years. That's not counting attempts at suicide bombing, sniping at highways, kidnapping, stabbings, and the HAMAS genocidal brainwashing & recqruitment of kids as young as 2 years old for "Holy War" which takes the whole idea of child abuse to a new standard of pathetic evil. Because if one were to approach this Gaza issue from a phony "neutral", relatistiv perspective.... then it makes mockery of every good thing human beings are supposed to think and do. Everything. Not to mention, it legitimizes real terror. So don't be surprised if in the ensuing years and decades, you will see such terror come to Europe and America. Because if HAMAS can do this, then so can disgruntled Native Americans who are even more "occupied" or so can Narco cartels in Mexico, whose businesses are also "opporessed" by gringos... so can growing Islamic population in Europe who are "denied Sharia" by kaffirs... And so on and so forth. [/quote] Not to mention that the IDF has been caught masquerading as Hamas and sending rockets into Israel. [/quote] All 10,000 of them????? By "Paliwood" I am sure... LMAO! Has Israel been "caught" performing suicide bombings on its own schools, buses, nursing homes and cultural centers, too? I am sure Israel faked all those "video confessions" by the suicide bombers over the years... Not to mention, clever Jews were able to hack accounts of HAMAS, Islmaic Johad, PRC, PFLP, AAMB and al-Qaeda in Gaza & Sinai Peninsula... all of whom willingly TOOK CREDIT for their countless attacks as well as foiled attempted attacks over the years. But it's been Joooos all along according to our Canadian friend here.... Seriously, these anti-Israli bozos are just bizarre. They repeat their old talking points that don't even make sense. Nevermind that the "False-flag" attacks have existed even long before Sun Tzu, and that Muslims have actually been masters at it.... [/quote] thought that was you, ashton! [/quote] I am always me. (Unlike my future profession where I get to be other people.... in "real-life" I have a very hard-rule about being myself, so as to not lose my identity completely. GLP is no exception, my posting style should be instantly recognizable even though I can post from any IP or country if I really wanted to. But that would defeat the purpose, I think when dealing with all these envious anti-Semitic, anti-America haters) I don't have a lot of time these days, but when it comes to GLP, the Manchurian-Kenyan Candidate Obama usurping power or Israel... somebody has to say something otherwise big lies prevail :) [/quote] is being yourself all it's cracked up to be? i have my doubts. but then i'm not you. [/quote]
Original Message
Israel may launch a ground invasion into Gaza, Benjamin Netanyahu has indicated, after a weekend of escalating cross border violence.
By lunchtime on Sunday, more than 70 rockets and mortars had landed in Israel from Gaza within 24 hours, leaving six Palestinians killed and eight Israelis injured.
At a cabinet meeting on Sunday morning, Mr Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, said: "The world needs to understand that Israel will not sit idly by in the face of attempts to attack us. We are prepared to intensify the response."
One unnamed senior Israeli government official, said: "A ground incursion is certainly not out of the question although we hope it won't come to that."

All 581 metric tonnes of a precursor chemical for sarin gas that were removed from the Syrian Arab Republic and trans-loaded onto the U.S. Maritime Vessel Cape Ray in early July, have been destroyed with neutralisation technology aboard the ship while sailing in international waters of the Mediterranean Sea, informs the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW).
The precursor chemicals - methylphosphonyl difluoride, or DF - were neutralised with two Field Deployable Hydrolysis Systems (FDHS) that were installed on the Cape Ray for the purpose of destroying the most dangerous chemicals in Syria's stockpile. The FDHS units mix the chemicals with fresh water and reagents and then heat the mixture, which reduces the toxicity of the chemicals by at least 99.9 percent. All of the resulting effluents, or reaction mass, from hydrolysis of the DF are stored aboard the ship.
The Cape Ray has now begun operations to neutralise 19.8 metric tonnes of sulfur mustard, a blistering agent, which are all the Syrian chemicals that remain on the ship. When that has been completed, the Cape Ray will then transport the effluents from the DF and sulfur mustard for disposal at land-based facilities in Finland and Germany.
The OPCW Director-General, Ambassador Ahmet Üzümcü, thanked the United States for completing the destruction of the precursor chemicals in a safe and environmentally sound manner, and for its overall contribution to the international efforts to eliminate Syria's chemical weapons programme.

It seems a shocking reaction now and I was vaguely shocked by myself at the time, which is why I don't mention it often, but although I liked all the books he wrote and some of the songs he wrote, I always thought John Lennon was also a traitor to music, in the nicest possible way, and I'd like to explain why.
The fact was that I grew up in North Wales and I fell in love with jazz early on, which placed me in an impossible situation because North Wales was not a good place in which to be a jazz-lover; there was no jazz being played in North Wales then, and there was nowhere I could buy jazz records. Well, there was Crane's in Wrexham and there was Hilda Catherall's record shop in Chester, but the nearest really good place was NEMS record shop in Liverpool, which meant I had to travel abroad, from Wales to England, to get a good jazz record.
They had a wonderful selection of the latest American jazz LPs at NEMS. You could get to Liverpool from Wrexham by direct train, and I did, whenever possible, and headed straight for NEMS record shop, jazz department, to get the latest Art Blakey, or Miles Davis, or Gerry Mulligan, blissfully ignorant of the fact that NEMS record shop was owned by Brian Epstein ...
Except that one day I became aware, as I shuffled through the jazz racks, that they were playing a pop record over and over again in the shop.
Pop I never paid attention to. How could I? I was a jazz snob. Jazz was exciting and adventurous. Pop was dull and repetitive and sweaty and adolescent, and I, too, was dull and repetitive and sweaty and adolescent, which was why I wanted to get away from all that, and why I was into jazz.
I asked the girl, as I bought my Sonny Rollins LP, who this pop record was by.
"It's a local group," she said, "called the Beatles. We think they're going to be very big. This is their first single."
I listened to the record. I looked at the photo of the group. I studied the name of the group. The Beatles. I said to myself, "This is one group that is never going to make it", and forgot all about them.
A year later they were the biggest thing since shoelaces, and the jazz record selection at NEMS had shrunk appreciably.
Now, this in itself is not an adequate reason to wish John Lennon dead. The reason I resented him was that the group he played for was responsible for the eclipsing of the music I loved, jazz.
Until the pop revolution ushered in by the Beatles, jazz really was the respectable alternative to classical music. Most students had records by Miles Davis or Dave Brubeck or the MJQ in their collection. Most of them knew that MJQ stood for Modern Jazz Quartet. Then along came the Beatles and everyone suddenly saw that pop could be quality and jazz went into the doldrums. They didn't buy it any more, and jazz musicians starved in the wonderful Sixties.
John Lennon even said he hated jazz. "Jazz," he said, "is just a lot of old blokes drinking beer at the bar, smoking pipes and not listening to the music."
This was dreadfully unfair. Not only was it dreadfully unfair, it was true of certain sorts of jazz. John Lennon was probably the guy after whom the group Johnny Hates Jazz was named. He had to die.
Don't get me wrong, as I think I may have said already, I didn't dislike the Beatles. I bought most of their records as they came out. I went to a concert of theirs at the Odeon Hammersmith in the mid-Sixties and saw them, even if I couldn't hear them, owing to the thousands of screaming teenage girls round me. I gave Paul McCartney a job, when I was literary editor of Punch, and persuaded him to review a book for our book pages. It was the Paul Simon Songbook, and he quite liked it.
I even saw Yoko Ono singing at the Albert Hall during an Ornette Coleman concert in the late Sixties, and if you have never heard Yoko Ono sing, then I can tell you that she is every bit as terrible as you can imagine, and John Lennon deserved her.
Anyway, that's why I cheered guiltily and silently when John Lennon was obituarised. So die all enemies of jazz, I thought.
Jazz used to be the nonconformist music. I think it still is. There is nothing more boringly mainstream than rock music, these days. Perhaps there never was.

High and outlandish fees are becoming the norm these days with news of Frontier Airlines' carry-on bag fees for passengers who book through third-party websites. AOL and MSN compile some of the worst offenders.
Bank Account Inactivity Fee -- AmericaNet Bank charges $10 per month after a year of inactivity on your bank account.
Towels/Hairdryer Hotel Fees -- New hotel chain Tune Hotels recently started charging for costs you'd think would be included in the room rate: $1.60 for a towel, $3 for the use of a hairdryer and $12 a day for room cleaning.
'Business Select' Fee -- Pay Southwest Airline's "business select" fee of $10 or $20 and you get first boarding, an extra reward point and a free cocktail.
Early Termination Fees -- AT&T charges more than $300 to cancel a cellphone contract early and even charges customers for switching to another calling plan or upgrading their phone. So does Sprint.
Seismic Safety Fees -- The University of California, Santa Cruz, recently raised its "seismic safety fee" from $25 to $40 a term. The money goes to improving the integrity of campus buildings to protect students in a quake.
Environmental Fees -- In March 2010, U-Haul started charging $1 to $5 to offset its waste-disposal costs, calling it an "environmental fee."
'On My Way' Fee -- This $25 to $35 fee by Air Canada "guarantees" that the airline will help you find a hotel, restaurant or flight if your flight is canceled. Isn't that just expected?
Land Line Fees -- Oklahomans with AT&T land lines started coughing up a 2% "line inspection fee" in 2008.
Convenience Fees -- Ticketmaster, the behemoth ticket provider, says it charges convenience fees for the "convenience" of 24/7 ticket buying without having to drive to a box office.
"Face-To-Face" Fees -- Virginia legislators passed a $5 fee for drivers who renew their licenses at the Department of Motor Vehicles instead of online or through the mail, saying the fee replaced a proposed $5 increase for all licenses.
Carry-On Luggage Fees -- Baggage fee collection is a booming business, and it's getting more and more ridiculous. Frontier Airlines says it will begin charging $25 to $100 to use the overhead bin for carry-on luggage if passengers book their tickets anywhere other than the airline's website.
Counseling Fees -- Get hitched in Texas and you'll pay an extra $30 for your marriage license if you don't complete an eight-hour prenuptial counseling course.
Property Transfer Fee -- Freehold Capital Partners has a new way to make money: require home sellers to pay 1% of the sales price to the home builder or other third parties each time the house is resold for 99 years, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Car Rental Early Return Fees -- Alamo charges $15 when a car is returned a day early, according to USA Today, and there are plenty of online complaints by customers of other companies that charge for early returns.
Pay To Talk To An Employee -- Fee-heavy Spirit Airlines has considered charging customers who wish to speak with one of the airline's employees at the airport, according to ABC News.
Home Ticket Printing Fees -- The New York Yankees and New York Mets baseball teams charge fans $2.50 to print their tickets at home. Ticketmaster has plans to end such fees.

Lawyers for the wife of the deceased Boston Marathon bombing suspect say she is doing everything she can to assist authorities.
But they wouldn't say Tuesday if Katherine Tsarnaeva, widow of Tamerlan Tsarnaev, has spoken to investigators yet.
Providence attorneys Amato DeLuca and Miriam Weizenbaum issued a statement Tuesday saying Tsnarnaeva is deeply mourning the bombing victims. They say that Tsarnaeva and her family were in shock when they learned of allegations against her husband and brother-in-law, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.
The lawyers say Tsarnaeva, whose toddler is the daughter of the late suspect, is "trying to come to terms with these events."
DeLuca told the Associated Press on Sunday that federal investigators want to speak with his client. They wouldn't comment Tuesday beyond the statement.

This describes the game between the New York Rangers and Montreal Canadiens on Saturday night. The club did not have their legs, failed to put any real offensive pressure on Canadiens' netminder Carey Price and certainly did not help netminder Martin Biron. All in all, it was a sloppy hockey game that with a 7-game winning streak, was going to happen sooner or later. With that said, the team is going to need to put this one out of their minds fast as they have a tough schedule coming up. The team will be in Florida on Wednesday night to take on the high-flying Florida Panthers followed by a game against the Washington Capitals on Friday at 4:00 p.m. and then the next day, the team will be home for a Saturday afternoon tilt with the Philadelphia Flyers. This is exactly why the Blueshirts need to forget about Saturday night's game and focus on their upcoming games against three really good hockey clubs. To win these games, the team's offense will obviously need to step up and the d...

New Sony OLED Display Can Roll Into Cylinder 73
from the still-can't-spindle-or-mutilate dept.
Really can it be rolled around a pencil? [slashdot.org]
Actually I think the screen qualifies as a flimsy.
Am I the only person who doesn't care how thin they make these display technologies? In regards to HDTV's, I want it clear, accurate, without lag and cheap. Thin doesn't really matter.
I saw similar stripes in early HD displays and then in early OLED displays when i would see prototype footage. I think it's more likely that they are minor problems with the way the screen lights up pixels on a grid. And it should certainly be fixed before production.
How many Unix hacks does it take to change a light bulb? Let's see, can you use a shell script for that or does it need a C program?

Grainger Sawmills secure a major order from Turkey
GRAINGER Sawmills Limited (GSL) recently shipped the first four containers of a €1.5 million order of quality kiln-dried timber to Turkey.
Susan Grainger, group director of Enniskeane-based GSL, stated that 'the timing of the order is highly significant for us, as generally there is a fall-off in orders for construction products at this time of year.' GSL are confident that when this initial order is fully delivered, they can look forward to a significant increase in future orders from Turkey.
'Gaining the Turkish order against formidable international competition was a real coup for us', said Niall Grainger, managing director of GSL. ' The contract is a vital element in our long term strategy to grow export markets for Irish timber. Although we already export to the UK, Belgium, Holland and Germany, we are always open to developing new markets and work really hard on growing this aspect of our business.'
The Turkish order was obtained through contacts built up over recent years and most importantly, GSL's impressive track record of meeting stringent customer requirements.
As part of their ongoing strategy of growing their existing export business to the UK market, GSL was one of three major Irish timber companies who recently participated in a Coillte and Enterprise Ireland-organised trade fair in Birmingham. GSL are also committed to participating in trade shows in Coventry and London during 2011
The West Cork-based firm was founded in 1977 by William Grainger. With over 190 employees in its manufacturing, tree harvesting and haulage operations, Grainger Sawmills is an intrinsic part of the Enniskeane and Ballineen community and is one of the largest employers in the area, contributing in excess of €12 million to the local economy.
The firm has invested some €36 million at its plant in Enniskeane, including the construction of Ireland's first large scale biomass CHP plant, which produces 2.5 megawatts of green electricity to the National Grid - enough to power over 2,500 homes. Company turnover for 2009 was €36 million and Graingers are proud to have Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) accreditation for every product.

Location of Turkish journalists missing in Syria unknown
March 19, 2012 - 22:40 AMT
PanARMENIAN.Net - There is no confirmed information on the whereabouts of two Turkish journalists who went missing in Syria, Turkey's Foreign Minister said on March 19.
Ahmet Davutoğlu answered questions during a joint press conference with his Moroccan counterpart, Hurriyet Daily News reported.
Two Turkish journalists, Adem Özköse and Hamit Coşkun had crossed into Syria in the first week of March. Özkose was last heard from on March 10, when he called from an area near the northern town of Idlib, which the Syrian army captured on March 13.
There were claims that the duo was captured by pro-regime militia and delivered to the Syrian intelligence.

Conviction for supplying morphine that led to OD
A Winnipeg man has been convicted of killing a young mother who overdosed after he gave her morphine pills.
Curtis Haas, 53, returned to court Wednesday to learn he was found guilty of manslaughter, drug trafficking and criminal negligence causing Wendy Henry's death.
His are the first-ever convictions in a so-called social trafficking homicide case in Manitoba.
Haas's unlawful trafficking of "street morphine" pills to Henry, 20, at his Dufferin Avenue apartment on Oct. 27, 2007, was directly tied to her death in hospital about two days later, Court of Queen's Bench Justice Gerald Chartier ruled.
Mr. Haas knew the drugs were dangerous," said Chartier. "... His actions contributed substantially to her death."
His providing Henry with up to 16 morphine tablets was something Haas should have known could kill her, the judge said.
An autopsy found Henry died of an overdose, and she had a startling 1,035 nanograms of morphine per millilitre of blood.
Henry and another woman who lived in the same apartment block as Haas both overdosed within 24 hours of each other. The other woman survived.
Chartier found Haas was aware the other woman went to hospital and didn't act to ensure Henry got help as well.
He'd also taken the morphine in the past and found it "worked too much," so he flushed his supply, said Chartier.
"Mr. Haas's conduct caused Ms. Henry's death," said Chartier.
Haas originally told police Henry wanted the morphine from him to "get high."
He later changed his story, claiming she needed it to deal with chronic pain. He also told a different version to a security guard in his building, claiming Henry had "gotten into" his stash.
Haas denied any wrongdoing. He called 911 and tried to revive Henry when he discovered she wasn't breathing. His lawyer argued Henry was responsible for her own demise because she willingly ingested the pills.
"Once a person has that in their hands, they have a choice of what they are going to do with it," Darren Sawchuk told Chartier in his closing argument in February 2013.
Sawchuk said there was no evidence Haas even knew how much morphine Henry consumed, and she may have snuck some of the pills from his stash without his knowledge.
After the convictions were pronounced, the Crown moved to revoke Haas's bail and see him taken into custody out of concern he's now a potential flight risk.
Haas has no criminal record, suffers with health issues and hasn't breached any of his conditions.
A revocation hearing will be held later this month.
An appeal is widely expected to be launched after Haas learns his sentence later this year. Crown attorney Libby Standil did not disclose Wednesday what punishment prosecutors will seek. She did say the case merits "fairly serious" prison time.
Henry lived with her father and two younger siblings. She filled her days caring for her two-year-old daughter, working with disabled children for the Winnipeg School Division and taking sign-language classes.
While the unusual case is the first in the province to garner convictions, others remain before the courts.
Donald Bustard, 53, faces manslaughter and drug-trafficking charges in connection with the death of Chantelle Halcro, 25, in July 2012.
Halcro died a drug-related death in her Brandon apartment, police said.
Police allege she'd been injected with the morphine-derivative painkiller hydromorphone.
Her family said it was not a drug she was known to take.
A source previously said there was no evidence to show Halcro didn't consent to the injection.
Bustard was arrested in 2013 following Crown consultation on the case.
He remains in custody with his next court appearance set for July 7.

O'Neill Cold Water Classic California 2010 - The Sea Odyssey Program
A Surfing video by quattro_media - 4,430 views
The ocean has done a lot for the O'Neill family and they wanted to give something back. So Jack O'Neill set up the Sea Odyssey Program.
This program connects kids to the ocean, a lot of them have never been on a boat or on the ocean before. It teaches them how essential and important the ocean is. If they don't understand it, they won't be motivated to protect it.
For example, one of their units is marine science, so the kids gather plankton and learn about the bottom of the food chain. And how things work at the bottom of the food chain, move up the food chain and affect through dolphins, fishes and humans. They learn about the natural system and the circle of life. How pollutants concentrate, how one form of life consumes another form of life and make them aware of how the eco system is interconnected.
The Sea Odyssey Program is a fun, interesting and instructive way of introducing kids to ocean and environmental conservation.

In its recent third quarter reporting, the company posted a 7% decrease in user engagement and a slide in growth of monthly active users: growth increased 23%, but that was down from 24% posted in the second quarter of 2014 and down from 38% reported in the third quarter of 2013. Consequently, Twitter's stock price has fallen in recent weeks, and the S&P downgraded Twitter's debt to junk status, describing the company's risk as significant. So, how did it come to this? Where did Twitter go wrong, and, more importantly, what can it do to right the ship and recruit new users?
