The London Array Can offshore wind power Europe? | VentureBeat

The London Array: Can offshore wind power Europe?

The largest offshore wind farm in the world to go online by 2012, powering 750,000 homes in the London metro area.

A potential to generate and sell massive amounts of clean electricity to continental Europe.

The stretch of Scottish coastline used for the array dubbed “the Saudi Arabia of renewable power,”

The first stage of the project will build 630 megawatts of capacity (roughly 25 percent of London’s power needs).
Some estimates put U.K. offshore potential at 25 gigawatts. U.K. consumes 45 gigawatts of steady generation.

Nanoparticles Can Damage DNA Without Crossing Cellular Barrier | Popular Science


Nanoparticles Can Damage DNA Without Crossing Cellular Barrier. Scientists know that nanoparticles can damage DNA in cells through direct interaction.

Now, though, it appears that nanoparticles can also mess with DNA on the far side of a cellular barrier, by creating signaling molecules -- a never-before-seen phenomenon.

Realization that indirect exposure might matter as much as direct exposure suggests greater caution in deploying nanoparticles within the human body -- especially after the recent report of the first nanotech deaths from environmental exposure in China.

Tiny technologies could produce big energy solutions - CNN.com

Nanotechnology - end of the old world as we know it. Harnessing the energy of body's natural movements to power small devices.

Even finger bending could power small device. Heartbeat to power medical body monitors.
Nanogenerators to harvest energy from any mechanical movement.

Self-assembling, batteries from genetically engineered viruses. Flexible solar cell generators in the fabrics. Spray-on batteries.

Cellphones Cause Brain Tumors, Says New Report By International EMF Collaborative. The public must be informed.

"Exposure to cellphone radiation is the largest human health experiment ever undertaken, without informed consent, and has some 4 billion participants enrolled.

Science has shown increased risk of brain tumors from use of cellphones, as well as increased risk of eye cancer, salivary gland tumors, testicular cancer, non-Hodgkin'slymphoma and leukemia.

Cellphones Cause Brain Tumors, Says New Report By International EMF Collaborative:

Cellphones Cause Brain Tumors, Says New Report. Great underestimation of brain tumor risks.

- There is a risk of brain tumors from cellphone use;
- Telecom funded studies underestimate the risk of brain tumors, and;
- Children have larger risks than adults for brain tumors.

This report, sent to government leaders and media today, details eleven design flaws of the 13-country, Telecom-funded Interphone study

The Interphone study, begun in 1999, was intended to determine the risks of brain tumors, but its full publication has been held up for years.

Components of this study published to date reveal what the authors call a 'systemic-skew', greatly underestimating brain tumor risk.

The cardinal design flaws include
--categorizing subjects who used portable phones (which emit the same microwave radiation as cellphones,) as 'unexposed';
--exclusion of many types of brain tumors;
--exclusion of people who had died, or were too ill to be interviewed, as a consequence of their brain tumor;
--and exclusion of children and young adults, who are more vulnerable.

Chevy Volt to go the distance with 230 mpg expected in city driving. GM expects the Volt to consume as little as 25 kilowatt hours / 100 miles in city

"Based on the average cost of electricity in the U.S. (approximately 11 cents per kWh), GM says a typical Volt driver would pay about $2.75 to travel 100 miles, or less than 3 cents per mile"

Space tourism to start in 2011 - from Usa, in 2012 from Kiruna, Sweden. Almost 300 trips already sold !


Vesmirna turistika, 2011. Skoro 300 listku jiz prodano. The flights at $200 000, EU153 000 will be run by Virgin Galactic, owned by British tycoon Sir Richard Branson, which will first send paying customers around 110 kilometres (70 miles) above the earth from New Mexico in the United States, Spacesport Sweden spokeswoman Johanna Bergstroem-Roos told AFP.


"We hope Kiruna will become Europe's main launch pad for the tourist flights," Bergstroem-Roos said, pointing out that the town located some 145 kilometres (90 miles) north of the Arctic Circle has been home to the Esrange Space Centre since 1966.


"The suborbital flights that will be sent up with tourists are the kinds of flights we already run from Kiruna, although we today send crewless flights much higher up, to 800 kilometres," she said.

Recycling, cellphones.

There are more than 500 million used cell phones in the US sitting on shelves or in our landfills.

Another 130 million will be added this year 2009 alone.

The problem is growing at a rate of more than 2 million phones per week!

Mobile phones processor

More than 80% of the chips inside mobile phones are designed by UK firm Advanced Risc Machines (Arm) and the most versatile phones of 2008, such as Apple's iPhone 3G, have one or more Arm 11 processing cores onboard.

The Arm 11 series debuted in 2003 and now, five years later, the phones and the applications they run are starting to stretch it to the limit.

Arm 11 family is starting to make way for the Cortex range of processors. Cortex A9 series will have 30-100 times the processing power of those 1993 era chips.

The first devices based around the Cortex A9 chips have started to appear. Towards the end of 2008, Archos released the A5 and A7 media tablets. These use a 5- or 7-inch touch-screen that gives an owner access to movies, games and web surfing.

all the chips in the Cortex A9 family are multi-core processors.
