Google Wave Sunsetting in 2012


Search Engine Giant Google has been taking significant steps to do away with some of its unprofitable businesses....this is another one of them that is definitely going down.

Google Wave, another one of Google's experimental services to conquer as a networking and inquisitive online collaboration tool for families and businesses has finally figured that the big bird will not fly has taken a decision to shut it down.

Following is the excerpt from an email that had been received earlier this morning with the sad news, by a Wave member who once took pride in being among the first to find out what it was all about.
Dear Wavers,

More than a year ago, we announced that Google Wave would no longer be developed as a separate product. At the time, we committed to maintaining the site at least through to the end of 2010. Today, we are sharing the specific dates for ending this maintenance period and shutting down Wave. As of January 31, 2012, all waves will be read-only, and the Wave service will be turned off on April 30, 2012. You will be able to continue exporting individual waves using the existing PDF export feature until the Google Wave service is turned off. We encourage you to export any important data before April 30, 2012.

If you would like to continue using Wave, there are a number of open source projects, including Apache Wave. There is also an open source project called Walkaround that includes an experimental feature that lets you import all your Waves from Google. This feature will also work until the Wave service is turned off on April 30, 2012.  For more details, please see our help center. 

Yours sincerely,  The Wave Team  © 2011 Google Inc. 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043You have received this mandatory email service announcement to update you about important changes to your Google Wave account.

‘WikiLeaks’ the Journalists’ Tool to A More Concise World


On 28Th November 2010 it started publishing the largest set of confidential documents of the United States embassy cables and the important revealing documents gave people an unprecedented insight to US government and foreign activities. All the important information that is revealed through WikiLeaks is archived so that the general public can easily access it. This was all done to protect the infrastructure of WikiLeaks as it was attacked. Plus it helps to make sure that each and everyone gets access to all these important facts.

WikiLeaks stands out to be a non profit media organization that brings out the secret information innovatively from anonymous sources and has awakened the world to seeing things with a new perspective. Wikileaks information is considered ethical and has political significance while keeping the identity of the sources anonymous for the safety of the informing source. This surely provides the perfect way of revealing the suppressed injustice that is being hidden from the world.

From information to videos all the secrets are revealed with accurate proof that leaves nothing in doubt when you get such clear cut concise evidence which makes things clear as crystal. Each passing day Wiki leaks releases information through its website and is being highly criticized by the US government and other authoritative bodies but the real fact is that in this innovative world there is nowhere to hide as everything comes out in the open some way or the other. The over flooded information is bound to leak out even after you adopt strategic ways to suppress it and it will be out before you even know it.

Wiki Leaks doesn’t release the name of the source of information though it is highly criticized by the US government but it is best that the identity of the informer should not  come out in the open as there is a fear of attacks from high authorities. We should be thankful to such people who are brave enough to prove their points with evidence though their names are not revealed because of their own safety.

There are many political secrets revealed of different countries and leaders around the world and this may end up bringing the downfall of many and reduce their popularity among the masses. The secret behind the Afghanistan War might end up discriminating high officials and governments and this is the reason that the sources are kept anonymous as the revealer’s life may be threatened.

Traces of Flame Retardant, Now Found In Butter


A chemical called poly brominates biphenyl ether also known as PBDE was found in a stick of butter purchased from a local grocery chain in Dallas. This is the first time that the PBDE contamination was found in butter; the source of the contamination remains a mystery. The Flame Retardants are not edible as it is only used to slow down the smoke in fires and they are certainly not a food component and doesn’t  belong any where near food items. 

Traces of PBDE were found more on the wrapper of the butter and its means that either the wrapper was contaminated before it reached the factory or there was a possibility of the wrapper being contaminated in the factory itself.

All humans have a high percentage of fire retardants in their body and it is all because the environment is loaded with it the negative health effects especially in the growing children. In animals the PBDE’s are associated with liver cancer and neuro-behavioral alterations but their effect on humans still need to be confirmed.

This really motivates us to be careful when we buy our groceries and try out our level best to buy from hygienic stores and eat hygienically so that our overall health doesn’t get affected. These types of incidence have become a common occurrence and so we need to take precautions while eating.

Though you can refer this incident as an isolated one and it certainly is not represented by the product category but further investigation is essential so that these things can be avoided as much as possible and will not end up ruining people’s health. The positive thing is that there are many reliable companies that even recall their product if there seems to be any problem with them. These sure are caring people who are not concerned only in mercenary benefits but also care for people’s health in the real way. 

PDBE’s are found in the environment that is air, water and soil. Though the levels of PBDEs are quite limited in the environment, while research states the main source of exposure of PDBE’s in humans is through indoor and outdoor dust and food items including breast milk. You can minimize the risk of exposure to the PDBE”s in your life by buying household items those are free from PBDE’s.

What is the  world coming to as even our butter seems to contain high levels of a Flame Retardant that is used in electronics according to the environmental scientist from the University Of Texas School Of Public Health.

Launch a Failure ‘The Russian Glonass Navigational Satellite’


The failure of the Russian Proton launch on 5th Dec which instead headed straight into the Pacific Ocean was caused due to programming error according to sources. It carried the new additions of Russians Glonass-M navigation satellite constellation and this occurred exactly after 86 seconds of its launch. The launch failure has set back the sovereignty of the Russians and this can delay their sovereignty in satellite navigation.

According to official sources that are connected with this program it is believed that there were programming errors in the Proton rocket that started of sending the rocket to quiet a high and faulty trajectory. The rocket launch failed to reach the correct orbit on Sunday after being launched from Baikonur Cosmodrome. These satellites crashed into the Pacific Ocean near Hawaii. The failure of this launch was a real set back for the Russians as they were eager to launch a satellite system in space to rival the US GPS system.

The Russians optimistic nature is the reason that they are prepared to work up and launch a better navigations system in about 2012.The Russians were eager to compete with the GPS system and launch a better and more efficient system through their satellite. And they had also started planning ahead and building this technology in the new cars that are being made in the country.

These rockets were unmanned and thus there were no human looses to account for but they sure must have left a lot of garbage in space and increased global pollution. The Russian president has ordered an investigation as to what was the reason of the failure of the launch and to name the people who were responsible for it. The failure of the Russian Glonass system has brought a lot of unpleasant surprises as further plans need to  be corrected as they all are connected and have a bearing with each other. Plus the failure of the launch has also ruined the official festivities that were planned to celebrate its success.

Though the financial losses are yet to be calculated but according to reliable sources the cost of one satellite is estimated to have been about five million rubbles. The explosion of the Russian satellites also seemed to light up the Norwegians skies and baffle the locals into thinking that there was some alien activity when they saw the massive white spiral with a blue light trailing the night sky. Let’s wait and watch the clever Russians at work.

The Rising Oceans - A Threat to Marshall Island


The high rising sea level in the Pacific Ocean and Indian Ocean may end up swallowing entire islands. This is what global warming has instigated for which we need to understand the cause and effect of the factors that lead to it in the first place. 

International global warming news issued around the world and Port cities states that they are more vulnerable to the rising sea water. The sea levels are raising the salt level in Marshall Islands and these strong waves are ready to cut the silvery islands and sunk it into the deep sea.

People of Marshall Island who are at risk of being eaten up by the swelling seas can only wonder how many years they will be able to cope with it further. What would happen to the people living in these places? What must they do? Who would they become and where will they live as these are puzzling questions that lurk behind our minds and we desperately need to look into these answers.
Global negotiation of climate changes have dragged on for quiet sometime though the UN is ready to meet again at the Caribbean Resorts but no decisive action will be taken against the industrial, agricultural and transport emissions that are actually the real cause of Global Warming and the swelling seas.
The government of Marshall Island is seriously concerned about the future of the island and its people and is trying their level best to come out with some positive solutions to save their existence. People who built their homes close to shores require more rocks to build up a sea wall so that they can protect their homes and existence.
The changing climate is the main cause of global warming as it is all due to the expanding heat from sun and the run off of the melting ice that is rising to drastic situations and causing swapping in the scarce land of corals. The island may also become uninhabitable even before the waves wash it over and the salt contamination may ruin the crops.
Parts of the island are eroding away and what Global Warming has in store for us all is really unpredictable but it is better to take precautions and adopt ways that help to reduce its effects and prevent it from turning into a total disaster. The inhabitants of Marshall Island are still waiting and hoping for a miracle that will help to save their island and their existence.
From deforestation to rising sea levels people’s lives are at stake and it is all because of their lifestyle and jobs that has stimulated the carbon culture and increased pollution which is the leading cause of all environmental problems. These are the reason that lead to such disastrous environmental situation and if something positive is not done soon enough the consequences may end up even worse.

Stem Cell Research Reveals Spectacular Breakthroughs

Stem Cell Research Reveals Spectacular Breakthroughs


Recent successful Stem cell research for positive treatments of diseases like Alzheimer and Parkinson’s are the breakthrough discoveries this year. The research of the stem cells finding new horizons of treatment for the main culprits involved in causing these diseases.

Technological research carried out on inducing human cells to change into the type of stem cells that are created by the human embryo is a medical advancement known as cellular reprogramming. According to the scientists the embryonic cells have the potential to grow into any type of cell within the body and they are harvested by the embryos grown in labs.

The stem cells are actually blank cells and they are yet to develop into specialized ones as they are in the early stage of development and can grow up into any part of your body organs. There are basically different tissues of stem cells as the embryonic stem cells are originally from the embryo and the embryonic germ cells from the testes while the adult germ cells can be found in your bone marrow. According to recent medical breakthrough it is found that the adult cells can be changed into repair tissues and this sure could bring personalized regenerative medicine to step into the real world.

For these type of Stem cells you don’t need to generate stem cells as the adult cells can be obtained from the human own cells. The fascinating fact is that the stem cells can be developed to become any type of cell from repairing tissues to treating many diseases really raises new hope in the field of medical science.
The first human trial of this kind of discovery was experimented on patients with spinal cord injuries and the first part of the trail consisted of determining if the treatment works out safe without any harmful side effects. Through stem cells there is a possibility of cloning but it is restricted by the government and this is all in the best interest of people.

But the ethical issue involved in this type of research requires human cells that can be obtained from left over fertility clinic embryos. There are certain guidelines that we have to keep in line with as research can be carried out on the Vitro cells that are useless for reproductive purposes. This surely restricts human cloning which is not allowed in any case as stem production can’t be carried out to substantiate and develop human cells for repairing the bodily organs. Plus there should not be any commercial or financial transaction when this research is carried out. The embryos used in this research shouldn’t be more than fourteen days old plus combing the human cells with non human stem cells is also not allowed.

But the real question is, is it right to start of human cloning and disrupting the human cycle as these are situations that are best left to nature. Is this breakthrough really positive or will it start off another speculation and debate? Another negative aspect of this situation can arise when people start to adopt negative ways and sell human embryos o fill up their pockets.

Physical Fitness Kindles Hope in Life Of Cancer Patients

Physical Fitness Kindles Hope in Life Of Cancer Patients


People suffering from cancer have always been prescribed to have loads of bed rest in the past to help them conserve their energy to fight against the diseases, however latest research speaks otherwise. Today, it has been proved that people who are active and participate more in physical activities have a better chance of fighting for the survival of cancer than the ones who are inactive. There are numerous healthy benefits associated with exercise that even the American College of Sports Panel has considered adding several new drills and workouts for athletes.

Just like other normal people, cancer patients should strive to get 15 minutes of moderate aerobic exercise daily. Until now doctors have been recommending patients to take it easy and not to push themselves but this theory has certainly changed due to the recent discovery. Through exercise the patient’s body can withstand the withering effects of cancer treatments of Chemotherapy and Radiation. Promising evidence has increased the hopes of the cancer patients and they are more lively know with the new found hope to enjoy life with a little precaution.

A good exercise routine recommended by the medical experts turns out fruitful results as they lessen the need for the use of drugs and increase the production of the red blood cells because of chemotherapy. Resistance training turns out the best healthy exercise of the breast cancer patients.

The loss of red blood cells is the main culprit that causes fatigue in cancer patients undergoing treatment. It is also found that you will need less medication if you are active. Most patients end up losing muscles and bone mass density during chemotherapy but latest evidence has found that regular exercise patterns can help accentuate that comes from wasting away that come from the cancer treatments. Some cancer treatments end up making your bones more brittle and weak and so starting of exercises that will place less stress on the patients will work in your favor.

Though doctors don’t expect the cancer patients under going chemotherapy to keep up to the same level of activity as normal people as they understand the trouble that patients undergo during chemotherapy yet it is recommended that they should still be physically active as much as they can.

Thus the quality of life of cancer patients improves with inculcating regular workouts and adopting exercises as par t of their daily routine and keeping physically active.

Discovering the Extremophiles – An Organism that can Bear it All

Discovering the Extremophiles – An Organism that can Bear it All


Larger than life bacteria that can seen with your naked eye were found off the coast of Namibia and these Extremophiles bacteria have the potential to adapt to extreme conditions. There are places on earth that can’t support human life but these species of bacteria that can be found there. You can even find the wildest of creatures that can be found in the earths crust. Though high concentrations of salt end up killing the bacteria but there are even some that can survive the salt conditions and are known as Halophiles. Etremophilies are even found under the arctic ice and scientists believe that there are species of bacteria that grow on stimulated Mars and through experimentation it has been proved that some bacteria have returned back alive from the moon.

The search for the Extremophiles continue on this Earth and beyond because what may be extreme for us Earthlings may end up being normal business else where. These are really organisms that thrive in hostile conditions and the discovery of Extremophiles and their extraordinary adaptability of primitive life forms. There are also some species of bacteria that can tolerate high concentration of acidity and alkalinity.

The fact that communities of bacteria are found to thrive in extreme environment raises the possibility of life on our planet and the universe is always there. There are certain limitations that we humans can’t survive without but this doesn’t mean that the other life forms are limited by these essentials of life.

It has been found that life forms have evolved to fill every possible niche even in those areas which need to support life. The proof of living Extremophiles has opened the eyes of the scientists that the incredible range of conditions in which living things can exist. So in a way wherever you can find essentials of life there is always a possibility of life forms.

A very strange species of microbes are found below sea level and they are able to resist the temperature for baling point for water whose pressure is enough to submerge a submarine.

As life is possible in every niche of the earth there is also a chance that other life forms different forms may exist in the universe. By studying the Extremophiles on this planet the scientists will be prepared to recognize strange living creatures in other planets too.

It is beyond us to understand the limit that life can push beyond its boundaries and the maybe the extreme conditions here are the normal ones out in space. This is a puzzle that needs to be solved and one thing is for sure that there will never be a perfect answer as life goes on and extreme conditions can intensify.

Inadequate Sanitation leads to Cholera Outbreak in Haiti Relief Camps

Inadequate Sanitation leads to Cholera Outbreak in Haiti Relief Camps


At least about 300 people have died in Haiti due to the Cholera outbreak which is a disease that is caused due to drinking contaminated water. The Haitians living in relief camps are also the victims of the Cholera outbreak .These people have yet to recover from the earthquake disaster and they are in serious trouble again with the outbreak. Cholera patients are being treated in hospitals while some are under treatment in camps. The unsanitary conditions and the contaminated water are the result of the Cholera outbreak. This is not the problem faced by people living in relief camps but it has also affected permanent communities too.

The worst is still not over in Haiti even after ten months, nothing could be done to improve the devastation caused by the Haiti earth quake. The flow of patients suffering from Cholera never seems to stop. Its misery and heart burn all the way when you look at the misery filled faces of the Haitians who are looking helpless and have nowhere to go then you sure can read the untold stories that can be seen in their eyes. About 30 to 40 percent children under the age of eighteen are affected with severe diarrhea which is the miserable condition of cholera. There are not even enough hospital beds to treat the patients and many of them are being treated in open air and intravenous drips are attached to trees while the moans and convulsions of the patients really create a depressing feeling.

Cholera is caused by waterborne bacteria which if left untreated can kill patients within a short time. Haiti is a poor country and even before the earthquake access to clean water and sanitary conditions was not possible for many Haitians and after the earth quake the situation has worsened and ruined the infrastructure.
UNICEF along with the UN council are working up so that they can stem the problem of Cholera as soon as they can .Creating awareness among the people is very important as the spread of the disease could be controlled to some extent and health workers are teaching the Haitians the way to wash their hands and maintain hygienic conditions so that they can get rid of contagious disease. This will educate the people to be clean and hygienic and thus help in preventing the infection to spread.

By adopting such positive measures the death rate has slowed down and this sure increases hope that the Haitians will pull through this disaster quickly as possible. The dehydrated condition of the Cholera victims will improve if proper sanitation measures are adopted and people become aware of how to deal with the diseases. Cholera is a disease of poverty ridden areas where sanitary conditions and lack of clean and pure drinking water outbreaks.

Hope is eth motivation factor that keeps the UNICEF and the Government of Haiti working to avert the loss of the Haitians. All defensive counters, measure are being adopted to pull the victims out of the Cholera problem and save their lives giving them a new hope to continue on with their life’s journey.

Mount Merapi Unleashed its Volcanic Ash Killing Innocent Indonesians

Mount Merapi Unleashed its Volcanic Ash Killing Innocent Indonesians

Monday morning Mount Merapi unleashed another violent explosion which made the Indonesians run for their lives. The Indonesian authorities had failed to admit to their short comings in handling the Tsunami and a volcano that killed about 500 people in a week. The residents who had returned back to tend to their livestock after lasts weeks disaster went running back to their shelters. The city came to a stand still when the gray plume of ash shot up to the sky enveloping the area in grey cries and wails could be heard everywhere.

Though there has not been a report of casualties uphill now but thousands have fled to the over crowded shelters looking for relief. The head of the volcanic eruption Centre was expecting more eruptions but didn’t know the strength with which they would happen.

The Indonesian authorities are already being accused of inadequately helping the Tsunami victims in which at least 450 were already dead. Storms and strong wind delayed the rescue operations .Though the military and Red Cross assisted providing aid even through the helicopter but due to lack of coordination among the rescue workers the food and supplies were being spilled due to improper handling.

According to the Indonesian authorities the workers had been educated to handle emergency situations but everything happened so suddenly that those workers didn’t get any warning and were taken by surprise. What people fail to forget that natural disasters just happen you can adopt prevention methods beforehand but you simply can’t wait for warning signs.

According to the locals the recent eruption was stronger and devastating then the last week eruption. Around 47.000 people have been displaced and are staying at government camps but due to lack of co-ordination the authorities fail to provide them the relief that is due to the suffering victims of eth volcanic eruptions.
Alert level have been raised as it has been reported that there are signs of volcanic eruptions in the other four volcanoes of Indonesia. So its time the Indonesian started of to be more serious about enforcing the exclusion zone that so that valuable lives of people can be saved.

There search operations are being carried out looking for the dead victims while some dead bodies are being buried by their close relative .The Indonesians in the relief camps are suffering from respiratory infections due to the volcanic ash and they are also facing symptoms of throat burn. We should all try to play our part and help human lives as much as we can by supporting the Indonesians as you never know in which form we may end up facing natural disasters.

Mount Merapi’s spiritual gate keeper of Mount Merapi is also dead who till his last breathe hanged around protecting the volcanoes hidden spirit. He was a devoted spiritualist and took his job seriously. The people of Indonesia are the happy go lucky type though they are constantly facing threat of erupting volcanoes as they always hope for the best and this is what keeps them on their two feet.
