			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a  href="http://news-tracker.com/wp-content/uploads/the-republicans-war-on-science-and-reason.jpg" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-7302" title="The Republicans? War On Science And Reason"><img src="http://news-tracker.com/wp-content/uploads/the-republicans-war-on-science-and-reason-150x150.jpg" class="alignright" title="The Republicans? War On Science And Reason" alt="The Republicans? War On Science And Reason" width="150" /></a>
<p> The Republicans have become the pride and probably science against. They reached this conclusion because the science is inconclusive, but because they believe that as a matter of principle, that the scientific evidence is not evidence. The contempt with which the view is amazing, because one of the parties. (And his &quot;litmus test, but probably reject science behind the test.) With the exception of Jon Huntsman, who polls as well as Darwin had initially Republicans, Republican presidential candidate was denied existence of climate change, denied that the cause was &#8211; and is reversible &#8211; for men, or apologized for once having a different opinion. </p>
<p><span id="more-7302"></span>
<p> It has been much debate Herman Cain 9-9-9 plan, for example, was cleared by independent economists, conservative and progressive in the same way, but Cain still defends. It&#39;s the same world view that is convenient Cain, when asked about the wall street protests take, saying: &quot;[has] to support this, but I think for&quot; Without the facts, it is very important that you have fulfilled the conviction. &quot;This type of waste stream, because the evidence guttural, and science in almost all respects the republican ideology. Why? Because, he says, even skeptics have not read his analysis &#8211; the right not only for their deeds but to his own mathematics. </p>
<p> It&#39;s a system ripe for exploitation, and the Conservatives are willing to do. Perhaps not surprising. After all, this type of behavior is always rewarded by the media. This was based on reason and science, the other on one of the two, is considered irrelevant. As Al Gore said in &quot;An Inconvenient Truth&quot;, while less than 1 percent of scientific journals into question the reality of anthropogenic global warming, nearly half of all newspaper stories did. At a time when the media obsessed with balance, the facts are put aside in favor of dueling and false opinions equivalences. </p>
<p> It seems appropriate to remind candidates that these discussions have been solved for many decades, some for centuries and that 2011 is not 1611. Over the next few decades, science &#8211; and the respect for science &#8211; can be crucial to tackle our greatest global challenges, whether to reduce our carbon footprint to combat climate change, find new treatments and cures for diseases AIL us, or the development of innovations capable of lifting hundreds of millions of people out of poverty. It&#39;s time to go back to the Enlightenment. We can not afford to make decisions about our economy and our future, without reason or solid evidence. We can not afford to ignore the power of science, or as necessary to solve problems. </p>

<p> That is one of the industry decision makers of the chips they intended to take in the coming months and years ahead? Read on for our full interview. We recently signed with George Martin, product manager for the software unit of Texas Instruments wireless business, to discuss the recent success of the company with Android, 5 TI OMAP platform, in collaboration with Microsoft on Windows 8 and up. As the mobile landscape continues to evolve at a pace much faster than the computer industry, nothing is more important for processors that enable incredible functionality in these devices. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a  href="http://news-tracker.com/wp-content/uploads/google-offers-better-chromebook-pricing-to-lure-businesses-and-schools.jpg" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-7253" title="Google Offers Better Chromebook Pricing To Lure Businesses And Schools"><img src="http://news-tracker.com/wp-content/uploads/google-offers-better-chromebook-pricing-to-lure-businesses-and-schools-150x150.jpg" class="alignright" title="Google Offers Better Chromebook Pricing To Lure Businesses And Schools" alt="Google Offers Better Chromebook Pricing To Lure Businesses And Schools" width="150" /></a>
<p> &quot;This new option allows schools and businesses the option to prepay for a year of Web access management console Chromebooks telephone support coverage of the administration and hardware warranty. But today,&quot; Today, Google has added a new subscription plan that allows customers to buy the equipment in advance and save on the cost of a three-year plan of service. After the first year, customers can opt to pay a monthly fee for two years and three to access the management console and support. &quot;. Google has listened to some customers&quot; who work with the annual budget cycles, &quot;wrote product manager for Chrome Business Education &amp; Glenn Wilson in the Google Enterprise blog. </p>
<p><span id="more-7253"></span>
<p> For three years, ends up costing $ 871 or $ 951 per user. With the business model of home subscription plans ranging from $ 1,008 to $ 1,188 per user for three years. Prices for this business model is $ 559 or $ 639 upfront for the first year of service and Chromebook (higher price for the 3G version) and $ 13 per month in expenses over two of the three years. </p>
<p> Google tries to make the device more useful thanks to its partnership with Citrix to connect to Windows virtual desktop browser Chrome. Google also offers a management console, web-based but not fully realized. Although interesting Chromebooks overlook Web-based computing, which is hardly going to replace a Windows PC or Mac for most users. Google announced today that it has updated the console with the group&#39;s political leadership, shipment tracking and asset management, and future upgrades include inventory management, application management, network configuration, monitoring and reporting and printer management. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p> Feross Aboukhadijeh, Stanford University computer science student and software developer, has discovered a new vulnerability in Adobe Flash that you can activate the webcam and mic mute when you visit a website. Thus, the person in control of the site can divert is to look and listen. </p>
<p><span id="more-7223"></span>
<p> The vulnerability has to do with the Adobe Flash Player page Configuration Manager, this little box that may appear as a user and change the preferences to do with Flash. Adobe seems to have overlooked the fact that you can integrate the configuration page in an iframe, while at the same time, making it invisible to the user. </p>

<p> The one year old girl in the video below is of course not always want to turn the page on paper. While many commentators were angry, saying that the introduction of a one-IPAD is the first book of bad parents, I disagree. What&#39;s wrong with giving your child the best technology and start? I prefer to read on Kindle, because my son should not adopt new technologies as well?. </p>
<p><span id="more-7163"></span>
<p> Codes of technology in our minds, change the operating system. Sample clips of real life a year, with growth of the touch screen and print. The video shows how magazines are useless and impossible to understand for digital natives. Humble tribute to Steve Jobs, the most important person: a child. And as it becomes useless. Medium is the message. Apple products have done well. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a  href="http://news-tracker.com/wp-content/uploads/brain-implant-lets-monkeys-control-virtual-hand-and.jpg" class="thickbox no_icon" rel="gallery-7117" title="Brain Implant Lets Monkeys Control Virtual Hand And"><img src="http://news-tracker.com/wp-content/uploads/brain-implant-lets-monkeys-control-virtual-hand-and-150x150.jpg" class="alignright" title="Brain Implant Lets Monkeys Control Virtual Hand And" alt="Brain Implant Lets Monkeys Control Virtual Hand And" width="150" /></a>
<p>In a development that could have huge implications for quadriplegics, paraplegics and those with prosthetic limbs, researchers from Duke University and the Ecole Polytechnic Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) have developed technology that has allowed monkeys to control a virtual arm and touch and feel virtual objects using only their brain activity. The researchers say it is the first-ever demonstration of a two-way interaction between a primate brain and a virtual body and could lead to robotic exoskeletons that not only that allows paralyzed patients to walk again, but to also feel the ground beneath them.</p>
<p><span id="more-7117"></span>
<p>By inserting electrodes in the regions of the brain involved in the planning, control, and execution of voluntary movement &#8211; the motor cortex &#8211; and the area that processes input received from cells in the body that are sensitive to sensory experiences, including touch &#8211; the somatosensory cortex &#8211; the researchers were able to train two monkeys to use their electrical brain activity to direct the virtual hands of an avatar to the surface of visually identical virtual objects and, upon contact, differentiate them based on their textures.</p>
<p>&#8220;This is the first demonstration of a brain-machine-brain interface (BMBI) that establishes a direct, bidirectional link between a brain and a virtual body,&#8221; said study leader Miguel Nicolelis, MD, PhD, professor of neurobiology at Duke University Medical Center and co-director of the Duke Center for Neuroengineering. &#8220;In this BMBI, the virtual body is controlled directly by the animal&#8217;s brain activity, while its virtual hand generates tactile feedback information that is signaled via direct electrical microstimulation of another region of the animal&#8217;s cortex.&#8221;.</p>
<p>The researchers say that during the tests, the combined electrical activity of populations of 50 to 200 neurons in the monkey&#8217;s motor cortex controlled the steering of the virtual arm, while thousands of neurons in the primary tactile cortex were simultaneously receiving continuous electrical feedback from the virtual hand&#8217;s palm that allowed the monkeys to discriminate between objects based purely on the texture.</p>
<p>One monkey took nine tries to learn how to select the correct object during each trial, while the other monkey took just four. The texture of the virtual objects was expressed as a pattern of minute electrical signals transmitted to the monkey&#8217;s brains, with three different electrical patterns corresponding to each of the three different object textures. The researchers conducted several tests to confirm that the monkeys were actually sensing the object and not just selecting them randomly.</p>
<p>&#8220;Such an interaction between the brain and a virtual avatar was totally independent of the animal&#8217;s real body, because the animals did not move their real arms and hands, nor did they use their real skin to touch the objects and identify their texture,&#8221; added Nicolelis. &#8220;It&#8217;s almost like creating a new sensory channel through which the brain can resume processing information that cannot reach it anymore through the real body and peripheral nerves.&#8221;.</p>
<p>Such an exoskeleton would be directly controlled by the wearer&#8217;s brain activity, allowing them to move autonomously. Meanwhile, sensors distributed across the exoskeleton would provide tactile feedback to allow the patient&#8217;s brain to identify the texture, shape and temperature of objects. Nicolelis says the remarkable success seen with non-human primates suggests that humans could accomplish the same task much more easily, which means it should be possible to create a robotic exoskeleton that could allow severely paralyzed patients to walk while receiving tactile feedback.</p>
<p>Similar to the experiments back in the 70&#8242;s where electrodes were placed on the fingers, toes and tongue of humans and tracked to the area of brain activity being used. They were able to control a computer, by thinking about moving the part of the body that the electrode was attached to. The signal generated by the brain, was sent to control a keyboard on a screen, the keyboard/computer controlled a robot, the robot brought the paralyzed person medical assistance in some form.</p>
<p>By watching as various hot/warm/cool/cold hard/medium/soft objects touch the pad areas, the brain quickly learns to &#8220;feel&#8221; them. There&#8217;s a much lower-tech version of the same idea, with no implants. Pressure and temp pads (e.g., on fingers or feet) of paralyzed (or amputated, using prosthetics) people are linked to lightweight variable buzzers in a pattern on patches of &#8220;live&#8221; skin. The sensation is the same as from live flesh.</p>
