recently almost cell phone's product have the facility of "HSDPA"? what's that? almost everyone think about that...so i'm here to explain that to you..
HSDPA (High-Speed Downlink Packet Access) is a packet-based mobile telephony protocol used in 3G UMTS radio networks to increase data capacity and speed up transfer rates. HSDPA, which evolved from the WCDMA standard, provides download speeds at least five times faster than earlier versions of UMTS, allowing users of HSDPA networks a broader selection of video and music downloads. HSPDA specifies data transfer speeds of up to 14.4 Mbps per cell for downloads and 2 Mbps per cell for uploads. In practice, users are more likely to experience throughput speeds of 400-700 Kbps, with bursts of up to 1 Mbps.
In the United States, Cingular has a 3G/HSDPA network called BroadbandConnect. Cingular competes with Verizon Wireless and Sprint, which use a different 3G technology for broadband called EV-DO. One of the primary differences between HSDPA and EV-DO networks is that HSDPA allows mobile handsets to transmit voice and data simultaneously
any questions?
Today we're going to pick up virtually any consumer magazine or open any Internet news web site and read about a frightening new threat: That radiation from cell phones is dangerous, it can causing brain tumors or other cancers. Most people have no knowledge of science other than what they hear on the news, so we have a whole population growing up with this understanding. Is the fear justified? Do cell phones have the potential to cause physical harm, or are they completely safe? Or, like so many other questions, is the truth somewhere in the middle?
Live cells can absorb signals from cellular telephones, states a new study by Prof. Roni Zeger of the Department of Biological Regulation at the Weizmann Institute of Science. The study examined how live cells respond to radiation emitted by mobile telephones. Although the study sheds no light on the debate regarding the effects on health of cellular communications, the researchers hope that the present study’s results will enable future researchers to address health issues.
The study examined both the intracellular and intercellular communications system. The Human Genome Project discovered that each cell has 200 switchboards which transfer incoming signals to the cell nucleus. The intracellular route is based on a chain of five to eight receptor proteins that forward the signal. The signals are mainly external physical stimuli, such as heat, or the identification of various molecules. In the latter case, the receptors transmit a message to the addresses within the cell.
According to Zeger, the study found that there are a number of extensions for each communications channel, and that each extension handles designated signals, which are sent to the address in the cell for expression. He adds that understanding these channels can help researchers understand disruptions in intracellular communications and help develop more effective treatments with few side effects for various diseases, including cancer.
The researchers claim that cellular telephone radiation might be one factor that activates the intracellular communications system, which enables living cells to respond in various ways to different radiation strengths and frequencies. The results cannot determine whether the use of cellular telephones carries any health risk. The study was conducted on cells exposed to radiation in the cellular frequency range for 45 minutes.

Do you know that brain is one of the important think in our body? our brain is the center of the human nervous system and is a highly complex organ. It gives us the power to think, plan, speak, imagine... It is truly an amazing organ. How if we never use it?? it will become useless...
Here i give you the list of game that will train your brain.
Brainist
A collection of free games and brain-related materials testing pattern-matching skills, memory, language and math skills, strategy, and more.
What’s unique: Sheer scope. Any and all things brainy and game-y can be found here, from number mnemonics to the most commonly used words in three languages to a speculative list of the smartest people ever.
Downsides: The site is a bit disorganized. You can’t track the gains you make in individual games.
Bonus: A classic IQ test like the one you might have taken as a teenager. Remember what you got then?
Summed up: All kinds of stuff to keep you entertained, though a bit scatterbrained. Check out the “Strategy Games” puzzle featuring six frogs sitting on seven rocks that must be hopped, one stone at a time, over each other’s heads. It’s marvelously frustrating.
Fit Brains
Comprehensive brain fitness site featuring 10 games plus a word challenge for team play. Tests fall into five cognitive categories: memory, language, concentration, logic/reasoning, and visuospatial skills. Sports a blog and a list of scientific advisers. Boasts “Guilt Free Fun!”
What’s unique: Complex, richly illustrated and thought-out games with different levels and basic story lines. For example, in “Hidden Masterpiece” you are a painting-repair specialist who sells reconstructed works of art at auction, testing visuospatial ability and concentration.
Downsides: After a seven-day free trial expires, the site is $9.95 a month or $79.95 a year. Some games may actually be too complex and time-consuming. In “Busy Bistro” you scan ingredients and cooking instructions, then try to remember the items by filling out a virtual grocery list. That’s just for starters: One round takes almost five minutes, and there are five more courses to follow.
Bonus: Get real recipes from “Busy Bistro,” like Crab and Swiss Melts.
Summed up: Very dynamic. Feels as if you are playing a console-based game at times. You can subscribe to track your progress and meet other Fit Brainers. Suitable for the committed brain athlete.
Games for the Brain
Enjoyable time killers, including standbys like checkers, sudoku, and chess, as well as original exercises like guessing (and then recalling) a country’s flag. Probes memory, pattern-matching abilities, spatial skills, and more.
What’s unique: Less hype—just lets you play. Simple scoring mechanism means you spend less time worrying about the clock and more solving the problem.
Downsides: Some of the games feel more, well, game-y than brainy.
Bonus: After entering a ticket number earned during your workout, you can see a prize image.
Summed up: A quick one-stop site for a dose of mental gymnastics. Lots of free games to choose from without any commitments, financial or otherwise. But you may not stick around for very long.
The Brainwaves Center
Mostly a puzzle-book shop and source for brain-gain advice; the site also features games testing language, mathematics, and memory skills.
What’s unique: New types of crosswords involving letters or numbers, timed for speed. Example: An “alphabetic” has only 26 spaces, one for each letter of the alphabet, which comes up just once per game.
Downsides: Games can be played only once before it’s all reruns. Superbasic visuals are mostly black-and-white.
Bonus: Cool crosswords!
Summed up: Although the games are neat, getting to play them only once is a bummer.
Brain Arena
Billed as “massive multiplayer online brain-training,” the Web site hosts contests challenging players’ visuospatial skills, arithmetic ability, and reaction time.
What’s unique: Competition among thousands of mind-gamers trying to beat one another’s scores. Winners crowned every 24 hours.
Downsides: Repetitive games that reward your quickness to click a mouse as much as your acumen. Almost 80,000 people have joined the site, but it still feels junior varsity: Some tasks, such as a tiered addition problem, are either poorly explained or not explained at all.
Bonus: Cheeky names for players’ rankings: You start off as a puny Habilis, work your way up to Sapiens—and if you keep at it, achieve Cibernetis status.
Summed up: The site feels a bit like it’s under development, but the league-play aspect is intriguing—especially for those with a competitive streak.
Lumosity
A cleanly constructed site that is serious about representing the science of brain games, referencing studies and neuroscientists who support this approach to brain fitness. Tests memory, processing speed, attention, and cognitive control, which is basically impulse restraint.
What’s unique: Lets you set up a training program with regimented sessions and claims to offer a full workout in only 10 minutes.
Downsides: Just as expensive as Fit Brains but less visually appealing. Some games feel more clinical than creative.
Bonus: Waddling, animated penguinlike characters are cute.
Summed up: Solid, absorbing exercises that strike a good balance between basic playability and complexity, though a bit blah at times. After signing up, the Web site tracks your progress and tells you what to do. After all, if you’re doing neuro-workouts, you might as well get a personal trainer. (Full disclosure: DISCOVER links to Lumosity games from the sidebar on certain pages.)

Two years ago a team of engineers amazed the world (Harry Potter fans in particular) by developing the technology needed to make an invisibility cloak. Now researchers are creating laboratory-engineered wonder materials that can conceal objects from almost anything that travels as a wave. That includes light and sound and—at the subatomic level—matter itself. And lest you think that cloaking applies only to the intangible world, 2008 even brought a plan for using cloaking techniques to protect shorelines from giant incoming waves.
Engineer Xiang Zhang, whose University of California at Berkeley lab is behind much of this work, says, “We can design materials that have properties that never exist in nature.”
These engineered substances, known as metamaterials, get their unusual properties from their size and shape, not their chemistry. Because of the way they are composed, they can shuffle waves—be they of light, sound, or water—away from an object. To cloak something, concentric rings of the metamaterial are placed around the object to be concealed. Tiny structures—like loops or cylinders—within the rings divert the incoming waves around the object, preventing both reflection and absorption. The waves meet up again on the other side, appearing just as they would if nothing were there.
The first invisibility cloak [subscription required], designed by engineers at Duke University and Imperial College London, worked for only a narrow band of microwaves. Xiang and his colleagues created metamaterials that can bend visible light backward—a much greater challenge because visible light waves are so small, under 700 nanometers wide. That meant the engineers had to devise cloaking components only tens of nanometers apart.
Xiang’s group also cleared another design hurdle. A competing team had devised a metamaterial to cloak visible light, but it was just one atom thick, too flimsy to deflect anything more than a single sheet of incoming light. Xiang’s new metamaterials have heft.
Last March José Sánchez-Dehesa and Daniel Torrent, physicists at the Polytechnic University of Valencia in Spain, presented a design that would allow a cloaked submarine to hide from sonar. This technology could also allow an orchestra patron sitting behind a cloaked column to hear music as clearly as one in an unobstructed spot.
In September French and British physicists presented a plan for using metamaterials to shield shorelines from the impact of massive waves. Their proposed device[subscription required] would look like a scaled-up acoustic cloak: concentric circles of posts surrounding a hidden object. When a wave hits them, the posts would redirect it around the object without ever breaking the wave. The researchers say that such a device could be used to protect isolated spots in the ocean—like drilling platforms or low-lying islands—or coastal regions vulnerable to tsunamis.
But the weirdest extension of the cloaking concept is undoubtedly the “matter” cloak described this past year by Shuang Zhang, a postdoctoral associate in Xiang’s lab. Subatomic particles like electrons travel as waves, and Shuang showed how metamaterials could be used to divert an atomic wave the same way the invisibility cloak re¬directs a light wave. If such a device could be scaled up to the human-size world (far from certain, alas), it might be able to steer a bullet around a bulletproof cloak.
Technology is growing so fast recently and I think if we don’t follow it, we will become left behind. But I mean that we must use technology in right track because if we don’t , it will destroy us and our society.
Have we become controlled by technology? No!! I think that it's more like to say that we allow technology to control our lives. Think about it, we humans are the sentient; that little box in your palm or on your desktop is something you use every day, but do you need to use it everyday? Much of the time that choice is up to you.
Every day, millions or even billions of people log-on to their e-mail account to read and to write something. Our cell phones go along day; bombarding us with calls and text messages. If you want to spend endless hours on line or on the phone, texting, chatting or emailing everyone that you ever known then you are letting technology control you. After all, we humans do have a tendency to overdo and overuse many things. Even now we can see our friend's face while both of us is in the different place using web cam or 3G.
it really makes our lives easier; work flows a little more smoothly, when the system's up; which in many places is a rarity. You have access to the entire world in minutes; the world is actually your own personal library and museum. Do you really need to tour the entire world's museums in one day's time?
Technology is a tool and like many other tools it can be great or it can ruin our society.
While we seem to have more varieties of these tools today. For it to control us, we have to allow it. It can be over or under used. We have always tried to create easier, faster ways to do our daily chores and work. Ways to create more exciting entertainment.
How about your opinion?
Global positioning system (GPS) is a technology that allows a receiver to pick up information about its own position and velocity (speed and direction) from satellites in medium Earth orbit. It can provide three dimensional data up to an accuracy of 10 metres. It is officially called NAVSTAR GPS (NAVigation Satellite And Ranging Global Positioning System). GPS was developed by the US Department of Defense.
The GPS system can be divided into 3 main parts: The user segment (US) consisting of the user's GPS receiver; the control segment (CS) consisting of US Air Force bases; and the space segment (SS) which consists of the 24 orbiting satellites distributed over 6 orbits, and 6 spare.
GPS receivers come in a variety of formats including car navigation, hand held device for hikers or trekkers, devices embedded into watches and other specialty uses.
The GPS technology uses a complex combination of constancy of the speed of light, the equivalence principle, the Sagnac effect, time dilation, gravitational frequency shifts, and relativity of synchronization to combat many of the physical effects inherent in the system.
The first satellite was launched in 1978 and now over two dozen satellites are available.
The system is vital for navigation, map-making, and land surveying. It can also be used to provide time references for the study of earthquakes or to synchronize telecommunications networks. It can be used in military applications for precise delivery of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), cruise missiles, and precision-guided munitions as well as helping in logistics and nuclear detonation detection.
Launched in 1978, the Global Positioning System (GPS) is the only functional global navigational satellite system. It consists of 30 satellites in orbit around the Earth at approximately 20.200km, which transmit signals allowing receivers to determine their location, speed and direction.
Paypal is like your account bank in the internet. You can receive payment and buy product online. This is the smarter way to do business in the internet. It allows you to do so many things that would otherwise be much more time consuming and expensive. If you have not done so yet, start make your Paypal account today. Especially if you do a lot of online shopping.

There are many reasons for not wanting to give out your credit card number, whether you don't have one to begin with, or simply don't want to risk a case of identity theft. Luckily, it is quite possible to use Paypal without a credit card number, to both buy and sell goods and services online.
To transfer money from your bank account to your Paypal account, use the following steps:
1. Log onto your account and you will be taken to the overview page.
2. Click on the add funds tab at the top of the page.
3. Click on the link to add funds from your bank account.
4. You will be able to choose the account that you want to get funds from in a drop down list in the first option.
5. After you have chosen your bank account, type in the amount of money that you would like to transfer.
6. Click continue and it will take you to a confirmation page.
7. Click add funds and your transfer will be in progress.
Keep in mind that it takes a few days for your money to actually show up in your Paypal account, even after it is showing gone from your bank account.
To move funds from your Paypal account to your bank account:
1. After logging in, click on the withdraw funds tab at the top of the page.
2. Choose transfer funds, you will be taken to the next page.
3. Type the amount that you want to transfer to your bank account.
4. Choose the bank account that you want to send it to.
5. Click the continue button.
6. This will take you to the confirmation page. Check your information to insure that it is correct. Then verify it.
You will get a confirmation that the funds are being transferred. This takes a few days as well to show up in your bank account, so please keep that in mind before you transfer the funds.
Now that you know how to get money into your Paypal account, you can now spend it at any website that accepts Paypal as a form of payment (which most do). Whatever you're looking for, there will be an internet site that has it, and if they accept Paypal, you do not need to provide the seller with any other information than your email address. Simply click select Paypal as your payment method, and the rest is a snap.
In short, Paypal is quickly becoming the number one choice of online retailers. The simplicity and security of the software combine to make a package that is the basis for nearly all e-commerce. If you currently lack a credit card, or don't want to give out such private information, you can still take advantage of the utility of Paypal as a way of paying for both goods and services. As soon as you gain any money in your account, it is treated in the same fashion as if you had used a credit card, and may be dispensed as you will around the web.
