Inventors Killed by Her findings

Inventors Killed by Her findings - Living an inventor is not easy because they have to find a good idea to solve the problem, in a way that has never been carried out by others. Some are successful, but there is also a fruitful tragedy.

Reporting from the Mother Nature Network, Wednesday (29/08/2012), previously mentioned three of the seven inventor whose life ended due to his findings. This is the fourth sequel.

1. Thomas Jr. Midgey.
This man is a chemist known as the discovery of a "no-knock" or gasoline with lead and freon gas. He had suffered from lead poisoning, had poured gasoline on hand mixed lead and breathe air from the flask containing gasoline it for 60 seconds to prove safety findings.

However, Midgley's death not caused by lead poisoning. He was killed by the other findings supporting the series of ropes to support himself while he was in bed affected by polio. He tangled rigging was on 2 November 1944 and suffocate to death.

2. Marie Curie
This woman was a physicist and chemist famous for his work on the theory of radioactivity. He also discovered the elements polonium and radium, once won two Nobel Prize for physics and chemistry.

Unfortunately, he unwittingly discovered radioactive fatal effects on human health. This woman died on the 4th of July! 934 due to aplastic anemia caused by exposure to radioactive.

3. Perillos of Athens
The inventor of this one may be the most appropriate killed by their own inventions when compared to other inventors on this list. Perillos is bronze craftsmen who lived in the ancient Rome and designed the Brazen Bull.

Brazen Bull was a bull-shaped device that is empty at its center and is used to execute criminals. Criminals locked up in the tool is then roasted to death by a fire lit underneath.

Perillos even designed the tool to make the villain screams burning in them to get out and be heard like the sound bull.

He demonstrated the device at a local tyrant named Phalaris. Later, he was put in a homemade device while under fire ignited.

4. Valerian Abakovsky
Abakovsky is a 26-year-old Russian inventor who died in the trial findings, Aerowagon high-speed rail engine. Abakovsky died with five others.

Aerowagon Abakovsky findings have an airplane engine and propeller. This tool is designed to transport Soviet officials to and from Moscow. Aerowagon worked well at the start of the trial, but off the track on the way back to the capital.

Oldest Facebook user is 101 year-old

Oldest Facebook user is 101 year-old - currently there are 955 million active users on Facebook, but not all of them come from the young people. Of all Facebook users, a woman named Florence Detlor, a user of the oldest aged 101 years.

Quoted from Mashable, not only the user with the age of the oldest on Facebook, Detlor also the oldest person to visit the headquarters of Facebook. At the office of the social networking giant, Florence met with COO Sheryl Sandberg and CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

Sandberg was posting photos on the Timeline meeting her with the title "Honored to meet Florence Detlor, who at 101 years old is the oldest registered Facebook user. Thank you for visiting us Florence! "Or" Meet Florence, the 101-year-old woman is Facebook's oldest user. Thanks for visiting us, Florence! "

Since posted on Monday, the photos managed to get 5 thousand Like. According to the Facebook profile, Detlor graduated from Occidental College in 1932. She currently lives in Menlo Park and joined Facebook three years ago, or more precisely in August 2009.

Scientists Create Robot Able to Jump on Water

Scientists Create Robot Able to Jump on Water

BEIJING - Scientists created a robot that is not only able to walk on the water surface, but also doing the jump. Scientists are reporting development of agile microrobot that can jump to avoid obstacles.

Reported by ScienceDaily, Saturday (28/72012), scientists get funding for the development of the robot through the State Key Laboratory of Robotics, System of Harbin Institute of Technology and the National Natural Science Foundation of China. Qinmin Pan and his team explained that scientists have reported some progress toward a small robot that can walk on water.

The robot is able to cross the lake or waters to monitor water quality or act as a tiny spy. Pan said that making a robot with the ability to jump is difficult, because the downward force needed to push it into the air which is usually supported by the use of robot legs through the water surface.

Pan and his team search for new mechanisms and materials to build a robot that can walk on water. Using devices to create a porous support and the two legs to jump. The development team made ​​a robot that can jump with a height of more than 5.5 inches.

At this stage of the experiment, the robot was able to jump to the front near the height of 14 inches. The leap was two times higher than the length of the robot.

The authors reported that the ability to jump will make it more agile microrobot. In addition, more able to avoid obstacles on the water surface.

Jellyfish robot to Create a Human Organ

Robot Jellyfish

CALIFORNIA - The jellyfish becomes scary for marine animals as sea divers are quite deadly sting. However, in addition to the "savage" who owned the animal, the jellyfish inspire scientists to create a robot jellyfish (jellyfish) to support the revolutionary treatment procedure.

Robot versions of living creatures in the sea like an umbrella that was made by scientists and will be used to create artificial human organs like the heart. Named Medusoid, taken from Greek mythology, the snake-haired Medusa.

Jellyfish robot that can move in water and capable of creating a network. The scientists got the idea after seeing how the jellyfish and the human heart can pump the same way.

They use silicon and rat heart cells to create a similar elastic material with a "jelly". "I am surprised that with relatively few components, we were able to reproduce the (motion) is quite complex pool and eating behavior that you see in the biological jellyfish," says John Dabiri of the California Institute of Technology, as reported by Metro on Monday (23 / 7/2012).

John revealed that he was surprised how closely related scientists can match the performance of natural biological and how scientists look at how to improve the performance of such a natural. "The evolution of the miss many good solutions," he added.

"As engineers, we are very comfortable building something from steel, concrete, copper. I think of cells as other types of building substrates (base), but we need rigorous design specifications to move the tissue engineering of arts and crafts, for the type of engineering that can reproduced, "said Kevin Parker of Harvard University.

According to the study of Nature Biotechnology, the ilmuwam wish to design their own operating Medusoid using internal signals, such as the human heart and find their own food. Thus, the robot can be put into humans for years without using battery power.

Hah, Phone Populations Will Exceed Human Population?

Cell Phones

CALIFORNIA - According to the latest World Bank data, there are currently over six billion mobile units scattered throughout the world. It is estimated, that number will increase and exceed the human population.

Reported by Mashable, Saturday (21/07/2012), 12 years ago, less than one billion mobile phones around the world. But now, three-quarter of the world population has access to mobile phones.

Owners of mobile phones in developing countries rose 1500 percent from 2000 to 2010. While the number of incoming messages in 2010 to reach 5 trillion SMS.

Young people become a major driver of growth in the mobile phone world. In developing countries, people aged under 15 years old with low income 29 percent of them have cell phones. While high income is only recorded a 15 per cent.

Of this report shows, developing countries grow richer, so that consumers can afford to have a mobile device. Then the technological developments that helped push the price of mobile phones is also a role of the rapid growth of mobile phone users in the world.
