THE SECRETS OF GOOGLE'S

The mystery of Google’s sudden robotics splurge.The internet giant Google has quietly amassed a portfolio of eight companies that build robots, with more to come. But what is it planning? 

• So why is Google suddenly so interested in robots? That’s the question everyone’s asking after it emerged this month that the internet giant has quietly amassed a portfolio of eight advanced-robotics firms.
• Google is describing the venture as partly a long term “moonshot” project – the name given to its more outlandish or ambitious ideas, such as its self-driving car or broadband via high-altitude balloons. But it also says it aims to launch a raft of robotics products in the short term.
• Based in the US and Japan, the new acquisitions make diverse products, ranging from walking humanoids, to many-legged, animal-like packhorses for the military, to assembly robots, machine-vision systems and robotic special-effects movie cameras. Are they creating a cloud-powered humanoid who uses Google Glass? A line of robot pets? Or just a more efficient warehouse robot?
• Andy Rubin isn’t saying. He runs Google’s new robotics division in Palo Alto, California, and pioneered Google’s Android smartphone platform. He will only say that there will be a clutch of initial products but also that Google has a “10-year vision” of where the company is headed.

UNFORGETTABLE FREEDOM FIGHTER

“Remembering the proud son of India- Subhas Chandra Bose”

• Subhas Chandra Bose was an Indian nationalist whose provocation patriotism made him a hero in India, but whose attempt during World War II to free India of British rule with the help of Nazi Germany and Japan left a troubled legacy.
  Subhash Chandra Bose was one of India’s greatest freedom fighter. He was the founder of the Indian National Army, popularly known as ‘Azad Hind Fauj’. Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose had visited London during pre-independence period to discuss the future of India, with the members of the Labor party. His sudden disappearance from Taiwan, led to surfacing of various theories, concerning the possibilities of his survival.

• Many of them have known about Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose. What we have known is he is our freedom fighter. In India we have more number of freedom fighters but very few has placed their name in history. We have one of the most remembered freedom fighter is Mahatma Gandhi, because Indian Government celebrates his birthday as a holiday for every year. Subhash Chandra Bose was one of India’s greatest freedom fighter.Let us now see the challegeful life of bose.

 Life of Bose

• Subhash Chandra Bose was born on 23 January, 1897 in Cuttack (Orissa) to Janakinath Bose and Prabhavati Devi. Janakinath Bose was one of the successful lawyer in Cuttack and received the title of “Rai Bahadur”. He, later became a member of the Bengal Legislative Council.

• Subhash Chandra Bose was a really intelligent and sincere student but he never had interest in sports. He passed his B.A. in Philosophy from the Presidency College in Calcutta. He was strongly influenced by Swami Vivekananda’s teachings and was known for his patriotic zeal as a student. He also adored Vivekananda as his spiritual Guru.

• Subhash Chandra Bose decided to take revenge, after reading so many occurrences about the exploitation of the fellow Indians by the British. In 1916, Subhash allegedly beat and thrashed one of his British teachers E F Otten. The lecturer made a racist remark against the Indian students. As a result, Subhash Chandra Bose was came out from the Presidency school and banished from Calcutta University. The occurrence conveyed Subhash in the register of rebel-Indians. In December 1921, Bose was arrested and jailed for coordinating a boycott of the commemorations to mark the Prince of Wales’s visit to India.

Formation of Azad Hind Fauj by Subhash Chandra Bose

• Subhash Chandra Bose now started a mass movement against utilizing Indian resources and men for the great war. To him, it made no sense to further bleed poor Indians for the sake of colonial and imperial nations.There was a incredible response to his call and the British promptly imprisoned him.

• He took to a hunger-strike, and after his health deteriorated on the 11th day of fasting, he was freed and was placed under house arrest. The British could do anything except locking him in the prison.
•  It was in 1941, that Subhash Chandra Bose suddenly disappeared. The authorities did not come to know for many days that he was not in his Barrack (the house in which he was being guarded). He traveled by foot, car and train and resurfaced in Kabul (now in Afghanistan), only to disappear once again.In November 1941, his broadcast from German radio sent shock waves amongst the British and electrified the Indian masses who realized that their leader was working on a master plan to free their motherland. It also gave fresh confidence to the revolutionaries in India who were challenging the British in many ways.He was in the Atlantic, the Middle East, Madagascar and the Indian ocean. Battles were being fought over land, in the air and there were mines in the sea. At one stage he traveled 400 miles in a rubber dingy to reach a Japanese submarine, which took him to Tokyo. He was warmly received in Japan and was declared the head of the Indian army, which consisted of about 40,000 soldiers from Singapore and other eastern regions. These soldiers were united by another great revolutionary Rash Behari Bose. Rash Behari handed over them to Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose.
•  Netaji Bose called it the Indian National Army (INA) and a government by the name “Azad Hind Government” was declared on the 21st of October 1943. INA freed the Andaman and Nicobar islands from the British and were renamed as Swaraj and Shaheed islands. The Government started functioning.

Disappearance of Subhash Chandra Bose

• Although it was believed that Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose died in a plane crash, his body was never recovered. There have so many theories been put forward regarding his abrupt desertion. The government of India set up a number of committees to investigate the case and come out with truth.
• In May 1956, the Shah Nawaz Committee visited Japan to look into the situation of Bose’s assumed death. Citing their lack of political relations with Taiwan, the Centre, did not seek for the assistance from their government. The reports of Justice Mukherjee Commission, tabled in Parliament on 17 May, 2006 said, “Bose did not die in the plane crash and the ashes at Renkoji temple are not his”. However, the findings were rejected by the government of India.
•  This is the history about our great freedom fighter of India Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose.! Bose’s patriotic spirit continues to inspire generations of Indians across the length and breadth of our Motherland. Lets salute Subhash Chandra Bose.!! Salute him !! Salute our nation.

Salute him!!!

DOES TEENAGE SCIENTIST RESTRUCTURE CANCER DETECTION

• Pancreatic cancer ‘s high death rate is partly blamed on the difficulty of early detection. Teenage scientist Jack Andraka has come up with a cheap and simple way to test for it.

• Pancreatic cancer is a killer – and one that is very hard to detect. One of the reasons its survival rate is so poor that it has few symptoms in the early stages.

• Partly spurred by the death of his uncle, 16-year-old scientist and researcher Jack Andraka affirm to find a quick and cheap way to test for signs of the disease.

• Andraka’s research – incuding writing to 200 science professors – led to him developing  a dipstick diagnostic test which searches for a biomarker for pancreatic cancer. It can also be used to test for lung and ovarian cancer.

EVIDENCE OF WATER FEATHER SEEN FIRING FROM JUPITER MOON

• NASA says it has spotted evidence of large water plumes shooting 200 kilometers over Jupiter’s moon Europa.

• An icy moon of Jupiter has been caught spitting into space. For the first time, a towering plume of water vapour has been seen coming from Europa. The discovery strengthens the case that the moon has a liquid ocean beneath its icy crust, and may even offer a way to taste its seas and search for signs of life.
  Now images taken by the Hubble Space Telescope have revealed a large cloud of hydrogen and oxygen – most likely in the form of water vapour – extending from the moon’s south pole.
• A model suggests that it is a plume 200 kilometres high that is spouting 3000 kilograms of water per second.
• This hinted that Europa has a relatively thin crust in which fissures sometimes open up and let water escape from a subsurface ocean. Similar rifts on Saturn’s icy moon Enceladus shoot spectacular water geysers.
• “If there are plumes erupting, there’s got to be liquid water, and it’s got to be pretty close to the surface.”

EYE TRACKER GIVE PERMISSION TO DRAG AND DROP FILES TO TAKE A QUICK LOOK

TREES MARK SPOT BURIED GOLD

• It’s not exactly 24-carat, but you could say some Australian eucalyptus trees are decorated with gold leaf. Trees growing above gold deposits 40 metres under ground incorporate the precious metal into their leaves.

• Studying the leaves could point the way to gold deposits in remote areas difficult to assess using conventional tools.

• “The fact that these trees were able to take up gold from such depths was a big surprise for us,” says Mel Lintern of Australian science agency, the CSIRO.

• In two locations in Western Australia, Lintern and his colleagues demonstrated that gold was absorbed through the plant’s vasculature, and stored in the leaves and bark in concentrations as high as 100 parts per billion.

• Lab experiments showed how: some of the gold dissolves as ions in water, which is sucked up by the roots. Gold is toxic to plants, so they trap it in calcium oxalate crystals that cannot affect cell function, Lintern says.
• The results show that trees can be used to find gold deposits in rugged terrain, where exploratory drilling can be difficult. Lintern says the method is so effective that some companies may already be aware of it, but have kept it quiet.
