The new Boeing 747-800 Intercontinental

The Boeing B747-800 or also known as 747-intercontinental is one of boeings latest aircrafts.Officially announced in 2005, the 747-8 is the third-generation Boeing 747 version, with lengthened fuselage, redesigned wings and improved efficiency.The aircraft will provide 467 seats in a 3 class configuration with an added range of 14,815 Km.
Boeing has also incorporated the technology incorporated in B787 s engines in the new B747-800.Boeing claims that the new jetliner will be quieter, produce lower emissions and acheive better fuel economy then any other aircraft in its class.This acording to boieng will be a significant improvement over the Airbus A380.The new 747 will feature better and more powerfull GEnx-2B67 engines with a maximum thrust of 66500 lbs or (296KN).The B747-800 incorporate same engine technology of that of the B787.Boeing has made a complete desgin ovehaul to the wing of the aircraft.The new wing will be thicker and deeper.The pressure distribution and bending moments will be different, with the new wing for the passenger version being planned to hold 64,225 US gal (243,120 L) of jet fuel, and the cargo aircraft 60,925 US gal (230,630 L). The new wing will have single-slotted outboard flaps and double-slotted inboard flaps.Raked wingtips, similar to the ones used on the 777-200LR, 777-300ER, and 787 models, are used on the new 747 variant instead of winglets used on the 747-400. These wingtip structures help reduce the wingtip vortices at the lateral edges of the wings, decreasing wake turbulence and drag, and thereby increasing fuel efficiency. Another effort to reduce weight is the introduction of fly-by-wire technology for the majority of the lateral controls.The new wing is the major technical change in 747-800 over the 747-400.
Boeing is still conducting test flights on this aircraft.The madien flight was on 8th Feburary2010.The B747-800 has already attracted many customers.Its seems that the Boeing B747-800 will be a very competetive against the Airbus A380 in the market.In these trying times of reccesion when airlines are struggling to stay in buissnes the B747-800 might be favoured over the A380 since it provides a very large(but less then A380) passenger capacity and a very good fuel economy.The need for very high capacity aircraft is being questioned now a days since passenger numbers are dropping and are not as much as before.In such times the airlines might prefer smaller more efficent aircraft then larger aircraft.This is the ideology which boeing had proposed a couple of years back , making smaller yet very efficent aircraft.The B747-800 will soon be entering service and we have yet to seen the influnce it produce in the airline industry .

Making money through Clickbank

Clickbank code has generated waves of reviews in cyberspace. It has been considered even a hot topic for some time now. This system claims that one will earn a minimum of thousands of dollars per week just via the system without even doing anything extra like selling, advertising, recruiting or making websites.

Many people get attracted with this concept because there is little risk and the rewards can be very, very beneficial. It's always good to keep a healthy skepticism and read my review here before deciding.

The system is being presented on the Clickbank code website which is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It also promises a very solid and reliable customer support for all its members.

It teaches people how to earn money online through the use of the internet. It mentions testimonials saying it to be a great money making system that is fool-proof.

Overall in our analysis, Clickbank code has been said to be a good program that is helping people. However, remember that even the greatest programs out there are not perfect. You may check out various programs and pick the best one that suits your needs.

For example, one thing to watch out for is when a product is linked to casinos.

However, Clickbank code should not be in this category at all. It may be tempting when you first hear what it is being offered, especially if you do not have to actually do anything that's required of most of the people for success.

Whatever you decide to get yourself into, make sure it's something that can earn residual income. The best way to start making money online with a product is to ensure it allows low-cost methods to start up.

Many businesses and money-making methods fail at first because cash flow is not managed properly. So even if you are using a good program, it is still wise to keep an eye on the income you are producing on a daily basis.

Internet marketing

Make money online is a way for people to reach financial freedom especially when they hate the constriction of their corporate or regular day jobs. It has been a hit among lots of people because the internet has opened up a big opportunity for people.

Most work-at-home concepts that are successful rely on starting with relatively little cost and are sometimes free. Only with low-costs, can profits easily be realized. For example, if one were to start a brick-and-mortar business, the expenses of offices, inventory, and paying suppliers would be massive.

If we look at internet money making concepts however, you'll see that it is not this difficult to begin. Without the need for inventory, your business reduces down to a mere internet connection and need of nothing more.

With this in mind, one can attain finacial freesom as well as geographic freedom by making money through concepts like Make money online. There is also the advantage of speed to reaching markets online. On the internet, you can reach millions of people without hours. It truly is this powerful.

This is among the many reasons that people love working online. As an added benefit, you get to spend time with your kids, family, friends or whatever you wish. One can even be on an exotic island and continue to work hassle free of bosses or corporate hierarchy.

Internet Security

Internet has now become and important part of our lives.Almost everyone uses the net these days.The internet is a wonderful facility and helps many people in their work.Applications of the net include e-marketing, e-commerce,online banking,Email and much more.

However with such wonderful and important advantages there is also a very big problem.That is internet security.Once you are hooked up with a network you are no longer safe.There is a possibility of others viewing or hacking into you computer.This is the dark side of the net and the people responsible for such activities are known as hackers.These people search for open ports on a network and then try to get inside of what is called an open terminal or gate in technical terms.If successful then they can view everything in a hosts computer.They can steal critical information like credit card number etc etc.

Another dangerous aspect of the net is that your computer can catch viruses from the net.This can seriously harm your computer depending on the nature of the virus.A virus is a code or an application which again is developed mostly by hackers.

To protect your computer you need a good antivirus.An anti virus defends your system from network attacks and dangerous viruses.

If you think your computer acts weird or if its performance is slower than you expect , then it maybe a virus.
To defend your computer you can get a very good anti virus protection program from CA technologies.

Implantable eye Telescope that magnifies vision

A miniature telescope that is implanted in the eye to solve problems has now been developed and has been approved for use in US.This new device has been specifically developed for people who have a special advanced form of macular degeneration in which a blind spot develops in the central vision of both eyes.

The telescope replaces the eyes natural lens and can provide a magnified image of almost 3 times.The device then projects the image onto a healthy part of the retina(the part of the eye which captures light).It can only be used in one eye because the other is needed for peripheral vision.patients who receive this telescope then need rehabilitation to help retrain there brain to merge the views from 2 eyes into a single image.It is targeted for people above the age of 75 with sever vision impairment caused by blind spots.

This marvelous piece of technology will definitely have a big impact.People with the horrible disease can now be cured and can once again see as they used to before.

The Future of nuclear technology

Nuclear technology and engineering has been the forefront of many major discoveries in the department of atomic and nuclear science.Research in these areas has been very valuable as we learned how to harness the power of an atom.It helped us understand the very nature of an atom , its behaviour and the role of even smaller structures known as protons electrons and neutrons.Now latest research has shown the presence of even smaller particles like quarks and higgs bosns which constitute to the formation of protons and neutrons.Scientists are still learning about these particles.The latest research at the haron collider in Geneva has shown prommising results and physicists claim that they are about to rewrite books.

However nuclear research has not recieved the status that it should have got.It has often been viewed very negatively and is considered the reason why the nuclear bomb was invented.In previous years number of scientists and engineers in this field of research have declined considerably.This may be due to the fact that personely in this field are considered controversial as nuclear science has been viewed very negatively in the past years.Also there is fear that such personel can leak information to terrorist groups which can cause an international incident.Though the probability of any terrorists group making a bomb are very very slim as one needs sophisticated instruments and technical expertise for such a task

Although I agree that there are potential dangers of nuclear technology there are many benefits also.Amongst all the natural resources for generating energy Nuclear energy is the most powerful.If used correctly it can solve the energy crisis we all now face.However the down side is again the very nature of nuclear fuel itself.Sophisticated reactors along with a very skillful staff of electricians, mechanics and most importantly nuclear scientists and engineers are needed for the safe operation of the plant.Uranium and plutonium are highly radioactive and this sort of radioactivity can cause serious health problem if someone comes into contact with.For this reason special protection is needed.The reactor is covered with alluminum and thick lead to prevent any leak of radiations.Core temperature of the reactor is closely monitored as it should not exceed a certain level.Nuclear Fission occurs in the reactor.In this reaction an atom is split when a neutron hits it.This causes the atom to split into further 2 atoms plus giving out energy and more neutrons.New ways are now being discovered to produce energy.Another reaction on which there considerable research is Nuclear fusion wherby 2 heavy hydrogen atoms are combines releasing a far greator amount of energy then Nuclear fission.Research is currently being carried out on this.

Another major involvment of nuclear technology has just started recently in the field of medicine.Although known as medical physics , nuclear engineering is contributing a lot to this underdeveloped field.Research in these areas has led to the development of the MRI, X rays , radiation therapy which is essential for treating cancer patients.

The image of nuclear engineering is rapidly improving.Job opening have increased for such posts and there has become a shortage of nuclear engineers. Not suprisingly salaries have also gone up for people in this field.Current areas of research include Plasma physics, medical physics , nuclear medicine and Nuclear fusion technology.

It is possible that we might seen major developments in this field in the coming years like next generation nuclear powerplants for nuclear fusion, major breakthroughs in the field of medical science etc etc.

Next generation Plasma engines

Conventional Chemical rockets generate thrust by burning chemical fuel.New next generation electric rockets produce thrust by applying electric or electromagnetic fields to clouds of charged particles, or plasmas, to accelerate them.
First of all what is Plasma?
According to physics and chemistry Plasma refers to a gas in which a certain portion of the particles hav been ionized.It is electrically conductive so it responds to electromagnetic fields.Due to its unique properties plasma is considered as the 4th sate of matter.Ionization is nessacary if plasma is to exist.

A plasma propulsion engine is a type of ion thruster which uses plasma in some or all parts of the thrust generation process.Athough these engines are far less powerfull then conventional rocket engines, they are very efficent.In recent years many countries and big companies are inveting and researching on plasma technology.The high speed capabilities combined with there incredibly high efficiency makes them an ideal choice for powering rockets for deep space missions.Here are a few types of plasma engines
Helicon double layer thruster.uses radio waves to create plasma
Magnetoplasmadynamic thrusters.Uses Lorentze force to generate thrust
Hall effect thrusters
Electrodless plasma thrusters. Use the ponderomotive force which acts on any plasma or charged particle when under the influence of a strong electromagnetic energy gradient to accelerate the plasma.

NASA is serioulsy considering Plasma rocket engines for its space probes and for taking man to Mars

New intel i7 processors

Intel is quickly improving its processor technology.With the release of its new i7 processors, intel is now undeniably the leader in next generation processor technology.Intel i7 is the brand name for intels new family of dextop and laptop 64bit x86-64 processors using Nehalem microarchitecture.

Nehalem is a code name for Intel processor microarchitecture, successor to the Core microarchitecture.Initial Nehalem processors use the same 45 nm manufacturing methods as Penryn. A working system with two Nehalem processors was shown at Intel Developer Forum Fall 2007,and a large number of Nehalem systems were shown at Computex in June 2008.

Here are some of the main features of Nehalem microarchetichture

1. Two, four, six, eight, ten, or twelve cores
2. 731 million transistors for the quad core variant
3. 45 nm manufacturing process at initial release (with 32 nm variants following)
4. Integrated memory controller supporting two or three memory channels of DDR3 SDRAM or four FB-DIMM2 channels
5. Integrated graphics processor (IGP) located off-die, but in the same CPU package
6. A new point-to-point processor interconnect, the Intel QuickPath Interconnect, in high-end models, replacing the legacy front side bus
7. Integration of PCI Express and Direct Media Interface into the processor in mid-range models, replacing the northbridge
8. Simultaneous multithreading (SMT) by multiple cores which enables two threads per core. 8. Intel calls this hyper-threading. Simultaneous multithreading has not been present on a consumer desktop Intel processor since 2006 with the Pentium 4 and Pentium XE. Intel reintroduced SMT with their Atom Architecture.
Native (monolithic, i.e. all processor cores on a single die) quad- and octal-core processors
The following caches:
32 KB L1 instruction and 32 KB L1 data cache per core
256 KB L2 cache per core
4–12 MB L3 cache shared by all cores

Intel is constantly upgrading its i7 processors.Although all i7 processors featured 4 cores (quads) the recent intel i7 980x features a remarkable 6 core processor.Whats more intersting is that despite adding more core the new processor chip is smaller then the traditional 45 nm chip.The new one is only 32 nm!!.The new processor is clocked at 3.33Ghz.

The new intel i7 family processors are also very good for gamming purposes.With such high speed you can run your latest games quite easily provided that your games feature multithreading, because otherwise only 1 of the 4 or 6 cores of your processor will be utilized.Those with mutitasking applications will also find this processor of great benefit as with intel hyperthreading technology 1 core can process multiple treads and mutithreaded applications run much faster on i7 processors then on any other of its class.
