TORRE: File Sharing Heroine Lilly Allen is a Copyright Hypocrite
--------
The war against file-sharing has found a new figure-head. After she wrote an interesting post on MySpace, singer Lilly Allen's words have been relayed around the world - she has even started a new blog where many artists are supporting her. But what if the new face of anti-piracy was just as bad as those she criticizes?

The fast-moving world we live in compels us to pay more and more attention to our wellbeing and this is due to the ever-increasing stress and pollution we are exposed to on a daily basis. The lack of physical exercise and poor alimentation contribute to the generation and propagation of health problems for individuals just as for entire communities. The first thing and perhaps the one most often at hand for everyone to do is fight the inactivity by working out. The exercise routines needn't be complicated, but well targeted to bring about relaxation and a feeling of relief from passivity and mental strain. Nowadays, for most people, going to the gym and having a personal trainer is a pretty common practice that yields good results. For those interested in a bit more than that, for people who want to find out and understand more than the basic principles that are behind a good workout, there are quite a few things to be unveiled. This is usually done by accessing specialize!

Taiwanese mobile phone maker HTC Corporation still has a few surprises for its users it seems.

The fact that Tattoo will come to Vodafone with Donut would make a lot of sense, given the fact that the handset is expected to become available in October, and the Android Development team already announced that Android 1.6 (Donut) would surface on handsets starting with the next month. What is interesting here is that Vodafone's subscribers are those who will see the Tattoo and will also taste the Donut first.

HTTP:: Even a 039 Quiet 039 Sun Affects Earth
--------
Established astronomical knowledge had it until recently that the number of sunspots on the surface of the Sun was a clear indicator of the intensity of solar winds, and therefore of the dangers that were in store for the Earth. Solar winds are known to be extremely disruptive towards our electrical systems. They can easily fry transformers and wires, and have the ability to destroy satellite networks and to jeopardize the International Space Station, as well as communications with our deep-space probes. According to ABC News, experts in the United States have determined that the planet has been bombarded with similar amounts of solar winds over the last year as the years before, which is not in tune with the theory. The Sun was unusually quiet last year, and therefore, according to estimates, it should not have emitted such intense solar winds. Astronomers from the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) and the University of Michigan (UM) were behind the new stu!

HTTP:: New Solar Cell Energy Record
--------
An international research effort, consisting of scientists from Australia and the United States, has recently beaten the world record in terms of solar-cell efficiency by 0.3 percent, and reached a total conversion rate of 43 percent. Details of the amazing work, which has the ability to completely change the way in which we use energy sources, will be published in the September issue of the respected scientific journal Progress in Photovoltaics, ABC News reports. The record-breaking effort was led by University of New South Wales (UNSW) Professor Martin Green. He says that the reason why better solar technology is needed is the fact that existing instruments are only capable of absorbing a small fraction of the huge energy potential that sunlight has stored for us. If we were able to harness a small percentage of the amount of sunlight coming on a single day, we could potentially sustain all energy needs on the planet for a year. “Sunlight is made of up of little par!

The Italian city of Venice is one of the most beautiful, culturally rich and endangered places in the world. With its homes built atop petrified trees, and directly on water, it stands to reason that any change in water levels has the power to significantly damage the 1,300-year-old town. It is located in the largest wetland in the Mediterranean Sea, inside a lagoon that features extensive mudflats. Venice is located atop such a mudflat, and has been so since it first appeared. For some time, engineers have begun constructions on a six-billion-dollar project aimed at creating floodgates to thwart threats on the city, but new analyses show that the MOSE Project may not be enough, NPR reports. The MOSE (Experimental Electromechanical Module) Project was designed to incorporate a number of mobile floodgates, able to lift up from the sea, and seal the Venetian Lagoons from the Adriatic Sea.

Standardized login protocols are finally becoming a real option and are finally beginning to do what they were designed to: make life easier for users. Two formats are currently battling it out, each with its own advantages, an open standard, as the name itself implies, OpenID, and a proprietary one, Facebook Connect. OpenID has scored some pretty big victories lately and most important players, including Facebook, support it. Yahoo has had it implemented for a while now, but it took it to another level with support for the OpenID OAuth Hybrid Protocol. “We're happy to announce support for the OpenID OAuth Hybrid Protocol, which combines OpenID authentication (sign in) with OAuth authorization (access control) in a single interface.

Developed by Brian Webster (Fat Cat Software), iPhoto Library Manager enables Mac users enjoying the benefits of iPhoto to have multiple libraries and, best of all, have them placed where they choose. “Apple's iPhoto is great and all, but when using it, one can't help but feel that there were some features that just didn't quite make it into version 1.0,†Webster says. “iPhoto Library Manager's job is to fill this gap. One of those features is the ability to have iPhoto work with multiple photo libraries, or even the ability to have your library in a location other than the one it chooses,†the developer adds. Although iPhoto Library Manager is a shareware program, a free version can be used on as many computers as you'd like, with some of the main features enabled.

HTTP:: How Some Birds Get 039 Silver Wings 039
--------
Scientists have recently discovered a previously unknown type of structure in birds' wings that is apparently responsible for creating a silver sheen in some species' wings. The weird thing is that, otherwise, these feathers would be completely black, the investigators say. They add that the new phenomenon is very different from the iridescence effect that causes plumages to appear to be colored differently, depending on the angle a viewer watches them, the BBC News reports. “We fell in love with the bearded vulture, a striking, rare bird of the Pyrenees. What struck us was how conspicuous the adult birds were, especially in the sun. The wing, back and tail feathers of these birds had a silvery sheen. Later, one of us was handling red-footed boobies and was immediately struck by how much their flight feathers on the wing resembled those of the bearded vulture,†Dr. Ismael Galvan, an expert at the National Museum of Natural Sciences, in Madrid, Spain, and the leader of!

HTTP:: BitWink Intros Zoom Lens App for iPhone
--------
BitWink has announced Zoom Lens 1.0 for iPhone, a new, digital-camera zoom solution offering precise pinch-to-zoom control of the real-time camera view. An 8x digital photo zoom can be achieved with Zoom Lens with full-resolution output and automatic sharpening of the resulting photo. Zoom Lens is said to offer a user experience that will be instantly familiar to iPhone photography enthusiasts, as it uses a minimalist interface. The user simply pinches the live preview to set the level of desired zoom, employing the familiar camera interface augmented with a retro-analog zoom indicator. As the iPhone 3GS also has the capability to zoom in on different parts of an image, users can single-tap to set the focus point at any zoom level. An automatically sharpened preview is displayed when the shutter is pressed. The user can then pan and zoom prior to saving, according to BitWink. "Zoom is a feature that every iPhone camera user wants. It's a bit of a mystery why Apple don't i!

Scientists from the European Southern Observatory's (ESO) Very Large Telescope (VLT) have recently revealed the second image of the Milky Way, taken as part of the ongoing GigaGalaxy Zoom project. The first image was released less than a week ago, as we were telling you at the time. While the last photo was an interactive map of the entire night sky, as viewed by amateur astronomers, the recent 34 by 20-degree wide view deals only with our galaxy's core. Like the one before it, it was taken by renowned astrophotographer Stephane Guisard, who is also an ESO engineer. The photograph was taken from the Cerro Paranal site, in the Atacama desert of northern Chile, where the VLT and the VLT Survey Telescope are located. It took 29 nights for Guisard to collect the over 1,200 photographs he needed to compile the new map. More than 200 hours of exposure were needed for the true-color, high-quality images to be obtained, an official press release on ESO's website shows. Because the!

This Sunday, Patrick Verner announced the release of Parted Magic 4.5, a new version of the popular partitioning and data-recovery Linux distribution. It includes many fixes and improvements, especially for Intel graphics cards and the newly introduced point to point networking support. We all know that getting the latest Xorg to play well with some Intel graphics cards can be a tough nut to crack, but the developers managed to add support for them, allowing the user to select the desired video driver at boot time, as Patrick Verner points out in the release announcement: "To combat some of the problems associated with the newer versions of Xorg and Intel chipsets, Parted Magic offers driver versions intel-2.4.1, intel-2.5.1, intel-2.6.3, intel-2.7.1 to the boot options.

In a new paper, published in the September-October issue of the scientific journal General Hospital Psychiatry, experts investigate the correlations and possible management options of depression during pregnancy. The new investigation was authored by experts at the American Psychiatric Association (APA) and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), AlphaGalileo reports.

Google is not one for big releases and all of its services and products get updated gradually without much fanfare. This means that it's constantly improving, but it also means that it's hard to keep up with the changes. Thankfully, YouTube has decided to make a round-up of the recent changes and new features to be introduced and it's actually quite a list, with new things like “friend suggestions†and “trending topics,†but also tweaks like “sticky hq†or a new way of viewing more comments. The feature touted the most is one introduced a couple of weeks ago, the new 'recommended friends' list, which now shows up on users' homepages.

--------
An international research effort, made up of scientists from the United Kingdom, Taiwan, and Spain, has recently taken a considerable step forward in furthering the field of photonics research, when it has developed a new, efficient light source for scientific experiments. Photonics is the science of manipulating photons, the basic particles that make up light and other electromagnetic radiation. The innovation is highlighted with a 'Synopsis' in the September 21st issue of the journal Physics.Using photons to carry information around, especially in next-generation electronics, is one of the main goals of physics today. The recent initiative has managed to create a new light source able to do just that. The instrument is capable of generating infrared light in a compact manner that is sure to advance studies involving these wavelengths in scientific laboratories around the world. The light source works by firing electrons through a minuscule tunnel in a stack of gold and si!
lica layers, and is also very small and compact. Because it's also tunable, it could constitute a predecessor for new devices placed in optic electronic components. The find is also detailed in the journal Physical Review Letters.The same two journals also feature a news piece on investigat...

The British Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, announced recently that the planned UN climate talks, which are to begin in less than ten weeks, in Copenhagen, Denmark, were in danger of failing for the third consecutive year, if countries did not come to an agreement on the nature of the problems at hand and their potential solutions. Brown is one of the first and the few leaders of the world who offered to go to Copenhagen this year with a clear intention of signing the treaty that would replace the Kyoto Protocol, which expires in a couple of years, the BBC News reports. In an interview with Newsweek magazine, the PM said that there was essentially no way to revert the catastrophic damage that was done to the planet unless world leaders came to an understanding this year in Copenhagen. The 2009 UN Climate Meeting is among the last opportunities to set into motion plans that would mitigate the effects of global warming and climate change, before the situation becomes too desp!

Brown's efforts come just a couple of weeks after the UN's Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon, traveled to the Arctic in an attempt to draw global attention to the damage in the area. “What has now become clear is that the push toward decarbonization will be one of the major drivers of global and national economic growth over the n...

HTTP:: Dementia Affects 35 Million People

According to a report released today, more than 35 million people around the world will suffer from some form of dementia by early 2010. Forms of the disease include such conditions as Alzheimer's, and no effective course of treatment for such afflictions exists up to this point, which makes the predictions even more worrying. The study reveals that countries with a low to average living standard are the most likely to experience sharp increases in the number of dementia cases, Reuters reports. One of the main reasons why the neurodegenerative disorders affect more and more people in such countries is the fact that few medical institutions able to provide accurate diagnostics and early detection exist here. The new report was released by the Alzheimer's Disease International (ADI), which is an umbrella group for many Alzheimer's associations around the world. “This report and all earlier studies indicate that the current number of people living with dementia is expected!
to grow at an alarming rate,†the new paper says. “An estimated 35.6 million people worldwide will be living with dementia in 2010.

The Mandriva developers woke up early during the week-end and delivered the Mandriva Linux 2010 Release Candidate 1 to the awaiting supporters of this operating system. There are a lot of versions to choose from: the well-known Mandriva One, both with GNOME and KDE, the Free edition that is made exclusively from open-source software, a dual arch CD ISO that has both 32-bit and 64-bit support, and some Virtualbox images for those who just want a quick test in a virtual machine. This release candidate fixes many bugs that were present in Mandriva 2010 Beta, especially the desktop environment-related ones and the problems with the distribution-specific network tools. You will also find the 2.6.31 stable Linux Kernel. Although some would expect things to stabilize as the distribution is heading towards a final release, RC1 also contains some new KDE functionality, as Anne Nicolas tells us in the release announcement: "This RC1 release comes also with new integration of Nepomuk!

After its landing in California on September 12th, the space shuttle Discovery remained there until last week, undergoing preparations for its return flight to the Kennedy Space Center (KSC), in Florida.

Experts with an international research initiative have recently determined that patients in vegetative states, or who are minimally conscious, can still learn new things, even if they lack self-awareness. The report, which appears in the latest online issue of the respected scientific journal Nature Neuroscience, also shows that these people can demonstrate partial consciousness, despite their conditions. With the new results, it will soon become unnecessary for experts to image patients. Rather, they could only apply a simple test to verify their consciousness, ScienceDaily reports. Scientists from the University of Buenos Aires and the Institute of Cognitive Neurology, in Argentina, and the University of Cambridge, in the United Kingdom, participated in the research. The team used classic Pavlovian conditioning to achieve its conclusions. Before air was blown in patients' faces, a tone played. After some time, the patients began to blink after the tone played, but the a!

This type of learning, the experts say, requires conscious awareness, as well as an understanding of the timeline in the events (tone before air, air after tone). “This test will hopefully become a useful, simple tool to test for consciousness without the need for imaging or in...

HTTP:: Experts Learn to Control Carbon Nanotubes
--------
Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are now among the most heavily researched materials in the world, due to the promise they hold in furthering research in a large number of fields, from computer sciences to medicine. They could also be used in electronic noses (bomb, drug and hazardous-gas detectors), as well as in devices able to record the passing through of a single electron. But one of the main issues plaguing their production processes is the fact that experts have not yet learned how to produce it of the exact length and overall size required for specific applications. Recently, experts at the Case Western Reserve University (CWRU) developed a method of controlling this production aspect. The atomic-level structure of carbon nanotubes, referred to as its chirality, is essential in dictating the final product's size and properties. What the CWRU team managed to accomplish was to devise a way of controlling the chirality using nothing more than various mixes of metals in the CNT !

HTTP:: Being Good or Bad at School Is Not Entirely Up to Children
--------
According to a new report released by Manchester Metropolitan University scientists, it may be that being perceived as good or bad in the classroom is not something that is entirely up to the individual children themselves. The paper reveals that, once parents, other students, and teachers form an opinion about a child, then they are very likely to maintain that opinion, despite clear signs that the child is changing his or her behavior. The new work was funded by the Economic and Social Research Council. The paper also reveals that, when starting out at a new school, the little ones also have little time to develop the kind of social skills required to interpret all the mixed messages they are subjected to that tell them how to behave. In equal parts, these messages come from parents and teachers, on the one hand, and from their peers and older schoolmates, on the other hand.

HTTP:: Triggering Chemical Reactions with Lasers
--------
One of the most severe limitations of chemistry today is the fact that experts cannot, for example, mix two highly reactive compounds together until they are sure they want the reaction to proceed. In other words, they cannot place two such substances in a mix, and then trigger the reaction between them at will. Through a new effort at the University of California in Berkeley (UCB), scientists may be able to do just that from now on, with the development of the first laser-operated, reactant storing method. Essentially, the new work allows for even the most highly reactive materials to be stored inside nylon microshells, through the use of carbon nanotubes. The microshells â€" containing all sorts of reactants â€" could then be placed in a mixture together, and held in this form for as long as scientists deem necessary. Then, when the time to start the reaction comes, near-infrared laser light can be used to agitate the tiny capsules, which begin to heat up, and eventually!

HTTP:: Human Activities Sink the World 039 s Deltas
--------
Scientists at the University of Colorado in Boulder (UCB) have recently released a new report on the situation of deltas around the world, which states that their condition is deteriorating globally. Most at risk is the low-lying variety. Human “improvements†and development made around or on them render them more vulnerable to the effects of ocean storms or river flooding, in most cases. The experts say that tens of millions of people are at risk because of this situation, which is getting worse every year, ScienceDaily reports. One of the most important factors in deltas' sinking is the fact that, on the largest rivers in the world, dams and levees are preventing important amounts of sediments from passing through, and being deposited by the waters where the river meets the sea. As a result, the deltas have no external sediment sources, and start being overrun by the ocean. These formations take millions of years to form at the mouth of a river, but can be covered u!
p within a human life span. “We argue that the world's low-lying deltas are increasingly vulnerable to flooding, either from their feeding rivers or from ocean storms. This study shows there are a host of human-induced factors that already cause deltas to sink much more rapidly than could be explained by sea level alone,&r...
