GPS and radar all in one handy device

You've got places to go and you want to get there safely — why clutter up your car with a GPS navigator and a radar detector? Escort's Passport iQ gives you the twin advantages of accurate GPS guidance and reliable radar detection in one convenient device that'll keep you informed of your whereabouts as well as potential threats.

Escort Passport iQ GPS screen

State-of-the-art display and trustworthy GPS guidance

The Passport iQ's 5" color touchscreen is larger than most GPS units on the market, making it easy to follow the action as you view maps of Canada and the entire U.S. The lane guidance feature puts you in the right place for upcoming maneuvers, and you'll hear helpful voice prompts announce street names at turns. You'll also see important posted speed limit information along your route and you can set the detector to give you audible warnings when you're going too fast. Quick access to thousands of points of interest helps you find food, fuel, and lodging with a few finger taps.

Access to red light and speed camera database

The Passport iQ's GPS capability is enhanced by Escort's Defender Database, which stores thousands of red-light and fixed-position speed cameras throughout North America. You'll see icons and receive warnings for these threats on the iQ's display with plenty of warning. You can mark positions for new cameras and speed-trap locations in your area so the iQ will remember them for future excursions. Escort includes a 90-day trial and offers optional paid subscriptions to keep your Defender Database current through your PC — certain Windows® operating systems may be required to update the database (see Highlights below).

Escort Passport IQ radar screen

Dependable radar coverage

The Passport iQ detects four common radar bands plus laser signals, with Escort's trademark long-range accuracy. It also offers immunity from VG-2 detection and lets you record known locations of false warnings so you won't hear them in the future. The iQ lets you adjust settings and program functions to match your driving style.

AutoSensitivity adjusts the detection to your speed to reduce false alerts. Escort includes a SmartCord with LED alert lighting for detected threats as well as a mute button. You can choose from several display options for radar-only, GPS-only, or both, which means you can defeat the detector when you're driving through an area where radar detectors are illegal.

Sorry, but we cannot ship radar detectors to Virginia or the District of Columbia.

Only had this unit a short time, but the sensitivity seems to be just right and the location marking feature is great. I was surprised at the amount of finger pressure required on the touch screen though.

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

Only had this unit a short time, but the sensitivity seems to be just right and the location marking feature is great. I was surprised at the amount of finger pressure required on the touch screen though.

Pros: Great navigating capability except for the somewhat outdated database.

Cons: Firm finger pressure required for touch screen selections.

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

Great Pruduct, I have had it a month and No complaints,

Pros: GPS and Detector in one is great in a Tractor Trailer, the Bird dog is not seen ,

Cons: is a little heave for the mount

The Passort IQ is a fantastic buy!!

RAS from Easton PA on 1/11/2013

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)

Absolutly love the Passport IQ. The performace from both the navigation and detector are fantastic. The performace is far superior than the Passport 8500 I was using! I love all the neat features and options for the Navigation system. The two gripes I have it that the windshield mount isn't that stong in cold weather. It will not hold a position until the mount heats up. No bluetooth is the other dissapointment. Other than that is great.

Pros: Great packaging and size. Awsome perfomance from the nav & detector. Options and features

Cons: Touchscreen could be alittle easier to use. Mount in cold weather. No Bluetooth option.

Radar/Laser Detection Features
Navigation Features
General Features

Radar/Laser Detection Features

Overview: The Escort Passport iQ is a combination radar detector and portable navigation unit with a large 5" LCD screen (480 x 272 pixel resolution) and OneTouch user interface. The navigation system features mapping from Navteq, branded points of interest, speed limit data, and lane assist. The radar detector has front and rear laser sensors to provide 360-degree laser protection, and gives you extreme long-range warnings on all radar bands, including X, K, Superwide KA, Ku, and instant-on Pop modes. The Passport iQ comes with a sturdy, adjustable suction-cup mount.

Operating Bands: The Escort Passport iQ searches for and detects the following bands:

  • X-band: 10.525 GHz (+/-25 MHz)
  • K-band: 24.150 GHz (+/-100 MHz)
  • Ka-band: 34.700 GHz (+/-1300 MHz)
  • Ku-band: 13.450 GHz (+/-25 MHz)
  • Laser: 904nm, 33 MHz bandwidth

SmartShield: The Passport iQ is equipped with SmartShield VG2 immunity to protect it from being discovered by radar detector detectors (RDDs).

Detector Screens: When the Detector View has been selected, the Passport iQ offers several detector screens to choose from. The screen displays your current speed digitally or as a classic speedometer. It also displays your current compass direction. In addition to your speed and direction, you can choose to display one or multiple (up to 4) radar signals. The detector screen can be displayed with blue, red, or yellow accents to match the dashboard lighting of various vehicles.

Note: Even with the Detector View displayed, the unit continues to navigate to your destination, displaying information and providing voice commands regarding your next turn.

Detector Sensitivity Settings: The Passport iQ has the following detection sensitivity modes:

  • Highway Sensitivity: provides maximum sensitivity on all bands
  • Auto Sensitivity: provides real-time radar performance based on your vehicle speed. As your speed increases, the radar sensitivity (X and K-band) is set to maximum range. As the speed decreases, the radar sensitivity (X and K-band) is minimized to reduce unwanted false alarms. Full sensitivity is maintained on all other bands.
  • Auto No X Sensitivity: provides the same detection sensitivity as Auto mode, but with the X-band turned off.
  • Radar/Laser Detection Off: useful for when you are driving in a state in which radar detectors are illegal.

Signal Strength Display: The strength of a particular radar signal is displayed with a red standard bar graph. If the signal has been locked out as false, the bar graph will appear in gray. If multiple signals are present, the unit will determine which is the most important to display. When a laser signal is detected, the Passport iQ will read "Laser." When the SpecDisplay option is enabled, the actual numeric frequency of the radar signal being received will be displayed.

Audible Alerts: When you encounter radar, a distinct audible alert will sound, and occur faster as the signal gets stronger. When the signal is very strong, the audible alerts will blend into a solid tone. This allows you to judge the distance from the signal source without taking your eyes off the road. You can choose between two radar alert tone settings:

  • Classic: The factory setting uses standard Escort radar alert tones:
    • X-band: beep tone
    • K-band: raspy brap tone
    • Ka-band: double brap tone
    • Ku-band: beep tone (same as X-band)
    • Pop: solid brap tone
    • Laser: solid brap tone
  • Mild: Softer, simpler alert tones
    • X-band, K-band, Ka-band, Ku-band, Pop: Doorbell chime]
    • Laser: solid brap tone (same as Classic mode)

AutoLearn: The Passport iQ's AutoLearn feature analyses over time the source of radar signals by location and frequency. This allows the unit to determine if the signal is an actual threat, or a false one from an automatic door opener, motion sensor, etc. The sources of false alerts are automatically locked out at the particular location.

Note: AutoLearn needs to encounter the exact frequency in the same location approximately three times to lock it out. The unit can also un-learn signals to protect you from locking out real threats.

Marking a Location: Touching the on-screen "mark" icon allows you to mark a specific location and label it for future reference. Once a location is marked, the unit will provide an audible and visual on-screen alert when you reach that location again. This is helpful to mark speed cameras, red-light cameras, speed traps, and other locations. Marked locations can also be "unmarked" if desired.

TrueLock: The Passport iQ is equipped with a TrueLock GPS Radar/Laser Detector filter to lock out and store in its memory false alerts. You can lock out false alerts from X-band, K-band, or laser. Once a signal has been stored, Passport iQ will reject the signal the next time you approach the same area, and will display the locked out alert with a gray bar or white text. You can unlock a stored signal if desired.

Cruise Alert: The Cruise Alert feature allows you to modify audible alerts when traveling within specified speeds (25-95 mph). All alerts received while traveling below the specified speed will give you a double-beep alert for that band.

Speed Limit Data: The unit will post speed limit data for most major highways and a number of side roads. The posted speed limit for your current location appears as a road sign icon on the Map View and Detector view screens. The unit can be set to provide voice alerts that you are traveling over the posted speed limit. These alerts can be set to alert you at 5 mph, 10 mph, or 15 mph over the posted speed limit.

Defender Database: The Passport iQ is preloaded with Escort's patented Defender Database of thousands of speed traps and red-light and fixed-position speed cameras throughout North America. The database is updated weekly, and Escort provides 90 days of downloadable updates for free. Subscriptions are also available in 1-year and 3-year terms, to  keep you up to date on future Speed Traps, Red Light Cameras, and Speed Cameras.

Navigation Features

GPS Receiver: The Escort Passport iQ is equipped with a SiRFstar III GPS receiver. A satellite icon in the upper left corner of the screen indicates whether or not you are receiving a GPS signal from a satellite. The unit is loaded with maps from NAVTEQ of the United States (including Hawaii and Alaska) and Canada.

Navigation Options: From the Main Menu screen, you can select the Detector screen to view radar signals, select the Map Screen of your current location, or select the "Go to..." screen to begin navigation to a destination. When "Go to..." is selected, you can enter a destination address on the keypad or select one of the many Points of Interest, and the Passport iQ will automatically calculate the best route choice to direct you to that address.

Map View Screen: The Map View screen gives you an easy-to-read, 3D view your current location and route on a map. At the top of the screen is the direction of, distance to, and details of your next maneuver. Map View also provides speed trap and camera icons directly on the map as you approach an area in the Defender Database. Map View options include North Up, Car Up, or 3D map orientation. The AutoZoom feature can be enabled for a close-up map view as you approach your next turn. Screen colors can be set to day or night manually or automatically (at 8 a.m. and 8 p.m.).

Directional Voice Prompts: The Passport iQ gives turn-by-turn directional voice prompts as you navigate toward your destination. The prompts include the street/highway name (text-to-speech), as well as the direction and distance to the maneuver. The voice prompt can be repeated by touching the green arrow icon. The voice prompt for any maneuver along the route can be played from the turn-by-turn list screen.

Lane Assist: When navigating a route using the Map View screen, you can receive advance notification as to which lane you should be in to continue along the planned route. As you approach a highway exit or road intersection, the Lane Assist icon will instruct you to maneuver to a specific highlighted lane to ensure you continue on the desired route.

Note: Lane Assist is not available in all areas.

Points of Interest: You can select one of the many points of interest (POIs) as your destination. You can search for a POI by name, or browse them by category (restaurant, lodging, gas station, etc.). The POIs are displayed along the route by an icon depicting the category. Some of the POIs are branded, and will display the logo of the brand name along the route instead of the generic category icon.

Radar Detection During Navigation: When the Passport iQ is in the Map View, the unit continues to detect radar and laser signals, and provide visual and audible alerts. In the lower left corner of the screen, the Detector Sensitivity is displayed (H-Highway, A-Auto, ANX-Auto No X, or Off). Your actual speed is displayed along side of the detection sensitivity icon. When radar or laser is detected, a bar graph is displayed to indicate the type and strength of the signal detected.

Demo Mode: You can enable the Demonstration Mode in the menu, and the Passport iQ will simulate the route on the screen. You must disable the Demonstration Mode to acquire a GPS satellite signal in order to drive the route.

General Features

SmartCord: The Passport iQ comes with the SmartCord, a special power cord with a power-on indicator, a bright red LED alert light that warns of radar or laser, and a mute button right on the plug for convenient access. The SmartCord is part coiled and part straight. It plugs into your vehicle's cigarette lighter or 12V power port, and terminates into an RJ-11 modular phone plug. An optional Straight SmartCord and a Direct-wire SmartCord are available directly from Escort. The Direct-wire SmartCord has a small display module that is wired directly into your electrical system with a 10' straight cord to route to the Passport iQ.

Suspend Mode: When the Passport iQ is plugged into a 12-volt switched power source (the lighter plug turns on/off with the ignition), the unit will automatically go into Suspend Mode for approximately two hours when you turn off the ignition. A message will appear acknowledging this change. The Suspend Mode provides a quick restart once 12-volt power is applied again. If the lighter plug is unswitched (constantly on), you must use the power switch on the unit to turn off completely. Unplugging the cord will put the unit into Suspend Mode.

Rechargeable Battery: The unit comes with a built-in rechargeable battery. It can be charged via the SmartCord, or connected to a desktop or laptop computer via USB. The battery charge status icon can be found in the upper left corner of the screen. Charging time is approximately 8 hours via USB or 2 hours via wall adapter. A fully charged battery delivers about two hours of use. Radar and laser detection will only work when the Passport iQ is connected to the vehicle via the SmartCord. The detector features are turned off when the unit is under battery power.

Connections: The Passport iQ has the following connections:

  • Power Jack: an RJ-11 modular telephone jack for connecting the supplied SmartCord (or an optional SmartCord) to power the unit with the vehicle's battery
  • Audio Jack: a 3.5mm minijack for connecting a mono earphone
  • USB Port: a Mini-USB 2.0 jack for connecting the unit to your PC or laptop for downloading software updates or charging the battery
  • microSD Card Slot: for adding future optional features

Google Supporting Photoshop On Linux

Google is financially supporting Photoshop On Linux. They have hired Codeweavers to run Photoshop better on Linux. From the google blog:

Perhaps the biggest news is that we hired Codeweavers to make Photoshop CS and CS2 work better under Wine. Photoshop is one of those applications that Desktop linux users are constantly clamoring for, and we’re happy to say they work pretty well now. Perhaps not coincidentally, apps like Flash 8 are now starting to work in Wine, too. We look forward to further improvements in this area.

According to Novell, Photoshop is the most requested non-Linux application that Linux users would like to run. Gimp is good but it is without many professional features such as cmyk and others. This is fantastic news for hardcore photoshop users. Good to see google is helping out wine developers :)

How to Predict the Future of Apple and McLaren Car Tech

PARIS, FRANCE - NOVEMBER 29: New Tesla Model S showroom has arrived in Paris, France. Tesla is an American company that designs, manufactures, and sells electric cars

Do you ever watch TV shows and predict the endings? I do it all the time. Much to my wife’s displeasure, I’m always pointing out ‘whodunit’, or how a storyline is about to unfold.

Sometimes she’ll just say to me, ‘You should have been a detective or movie critic…I can’t decide. But please shut up.

For example (huge spoiler alert here), we have been binge-watching our way through Netflix’s [NASDAQ:NFLX] hit series, Stranger Things. (Spoiler alert!)

About halfway through I said to my wife, ‘I bet Elle is the only way the Demogorgon can be killed. Actually if the monster is really in a parallel world, then perhaps she’s the real world equivalent of the monster.

If you are watching Stranger Things, I’m sorry for that. If you’ve already seen it, then you can see I was pretty much right.

Anyway, my point isn’t to go into the plot details of Stranger Things here. My point is that predicting the future isn’t as hard as it seems.

You can apply the skill of prediction in the real world. You just have to keep an open mind. Keep up to date with all kinds of information. Then look for connections, intersections and a whole heap of coincidences in one place.

A future two years in the making

Two years ago on a windy August day I made the trek out to Donington Park racetrack. Donington is a permanent racing circuit in the midlands of England.

The reason for my visit was for first round of testing of a brand new racing series, Formula E. I’d been following the development of this new racing series since its announcement a year before.

Here I was at the official live testing of a new, all-electric racing series. These cars are pure-electric versions of Formula One cars. They’re high-speed, high-tech and highly exciting.

Source: Sam Volkering
[Click to enlarge]

I was able to do a bit of pit lane investigation. Some of the companies involved in this tech included Qualcomm [NASDAQ:QCOM], Williams Advanced Engineering, Michelin, Dallara, Renault and McLaren Electronic Systems.

The series is about to kick off its third season. In the last two seasons they’ve been racing on the streets of iconic cities. Some of the races include Paris, London, Beijing, Moscow, Monte Carlo and Miami. This year they’ll also race in New York.

But in the two short years since the debut season, a lot has been going on in the development of the cars. And it’s attracting some serious auto industry players.

Some of the competing car manufacturers now include Citroen, Venturi, Renault, Mahindra, and the recently announced addition, Jaguar.

Worth noting is another team is Faraday Future Dragon Racing. I’ll get back to why this is important in a minute, but don’t forget that name…

Major car companies are now competing in Formula E, much in the same way carmakers compete in Formula One. Some of F1’s top teams include Mercedes Benz, Ferrari, McLaren, Renault and Aston Martin (through its association with Red Bull Racing).

Those companies work in F1 partly to advance development of their in house car tech. The same thing is happening in Formula E.

However, there’s something I think is secretly going on in Formula E which might help us to predict the future.

Just put the pieces together

The FIA had previously sent out a tender for the exclusive supply of batteries to Formula E in 2018. The deal will cover the battery technology for the 2018–19 and 2019–20 seasons.

The winner of the tender was McLaren Applied Technologies. They beat Porsche, Red Bull Technology, Renault and Williams Advanced Engineering for it.

This is significant. The first question, though, is: Why did McLaren want this tender? Well, it’s to advance the tech of their electric power systems.

McLaren confirmed in July they are developing range topping, all electric cars. It makes sense then to advance and display this technology through Formula E.

Here’s where things get really interesting. The Financial Times recently reported that Apple [NASDAQ:AAPL] was considering buying a strategic stake in McLaren.

That initially seems crazy. McLaren only makes around 1,700 cars per year. But it’s not their manufacturing expertise I think Apple could be after. I think it’s their power expertise.

Another rumour is Faraday Future has close ties to Apple. Faraday is currently developing ‘Tesla beating’ electric cars. And many of their recent recruits are said to have come from Apple’s ‘Project Titan’.

There are even suggestions Faraday is a ‘front’ for Apple’s ‘Project Titan’.

Let’s put these pieces together.

  1. Faraday Future has a team in Formula E;
  2. McLaren Applied Technologies are suppling new electric battery tech to Formula E in 2018;
  3. Apple allegedly looking at a strategic stake in McLaren;
  4. The rumoured link between Apple and Faraday Future.

I’m not a huge believer in that many coincidences. And it doesn’t take a lot to get to the end conclusion.

So what is my conclusion?

Apple will build a car in the next few years. I’d expect it to be available to market within the next three years.

I’d expect it to be all-electric. I’d suggest McLaren would develop the powertrain. And I’d suggest mass manufacturing would be by Faraday Future. Of course, the in-car tech would be entirely Apple-made.

Another option is for Apple to just buy them both. Bring it all together under one roof. Simple.

What it means is that Apple might be slowing with consumer tech sales. But they might also see a whole new opportunity as a new generation carmaker. And if they can nail it, it could actually take them well past a US$1 trillion market cap.

About Abusementone of us since 9:38 AM on 08.22.2009

My name is Benjamin and I am from the Dorset in the south of England. I have been a long, long time lurker ever since Pheonix-Blood (she also sold me my first Wii) introduced me to this thing years ago, I have felt that I have fallen out of touch with videogames and have decided to see if a daily dose of interaction with the Dtoid community can put me back in touch with my inner geek. Yeessssss.

Help me Dtoid, you are the only one who can save me.

My favourite games are;

Shadow of the Colossus,
Cave Story,
Half Life 2,
Anything by Cactus,
Left 4 Dead.

I'm sure there are others but I CBA to remember :D.

Galactic Dream - Rage of War review by publisher Evolution Vault:

What is Galactic Dream - Rage of War software from Evolution Vault, what is it used for and how to use it?

Decide the fate of your brethren, save your specie from the imminent annihilation or die trying.

At the dawn of the 24th century humanity, once a unified Federation, has splintered into two great factions being constantly under a state of war: the Fifteen Colonies, protected by the Space Force, and the Wraths, outlaws which try in any possible way to undermine military authority over their former home worlds.

The humans knew for centuries about the 'big bang' which emerged from the galactic core, though they waited until the last moment to make their escape, because they trusted so much into their technological advances. In the center of Milky Way, few stars turned into novas and exploded. Due to the relative small distances between stellar bodies in the galactic core, a chain reaction quickly developed, dragging into the explosion dozens of other stars. And even if calculations showed that it will take ten thousand years for the death waves to reach the Terran colonies, something happen. Something unexpected and unexplained at the same time... Therefore, the preparation time considerable decreased from what seemed an eternity to only two thousand years. Now the humankind has less than one hundred years to make a run for its survival. Do you think you can lead them?The year is 2482 SGT (Standard Galactic Time).

The Milky Way galaxy is a loose spiral disc of two hundred billion stars rotating around a compact center, therefore the Terrans searched for a place to direct their fleet and survive against the menace coming from the galactic core. The death waves finally forced the Space Force to seriously consider abandoning their home worlds, under the command of Lester Xavier, present president of the Fifteen Colonies. Terrans' enormous transporters were loaded with carefully selected colonists and directed to Cygnus Arm, under the Space Force escort. They were going to travel through warp-space most of the time, even if theirFTL drives are still not perfected and short, but lots, of stops for warp-core recharge and resource gathering were inevitable.

Also aware of the galactic core explosion, the Argo, originated from the Norma Arm (see the image above), began their journey thousands of years before the humans did, continually perfecting their warp-space travel methods and mining techniques, to the point of creating mobile warp gates and manipulating a star energy. The Abyssal Shan Ad'een, ruler over the Argonians and creator of the Citadel, keeps a close watch over mankind and seems determined to stop them from reaching their destination for a reason known only by him.

They say fate controls our lives and that the future is already written. There is also said that life is a bless coming from the gods. For hundred of years, humanity over passed its astral dreams to encounter another sentient specie, over passed its eagerness to go behind the familiar grounds. And when they were finally forced to leave the Colonies and venture far into space, many challenges and dangers awaits them, as out there, in the dark, the watchful eye of the Argo, an alien specie set to destruction of all sentient life, tracks them everywhere they'll go.

The universe is huge, we all know that... Some say it is even infinite in dimensions. Forever expanding, forever restless, it contains innumerable galaxies that floats through it. Inside one of these galaxies, for hundred of years, humankind never knew about the existence of another sentient specie out there. Up until today... The first contact already happened so you will have to decide what to do next. Guide your civilization throughout the galaxy to the limits of your choice. Fight back and conquer! Can you make a difference? Can you change the already written future? Can you fight destiny? Either you decide to conquest new territories, strange realms, expand and grow, either you survive the Argo invasions, you will be surprised about the complexity Galactic Dream world offers you. Decide the fate of your brethren, save your specie from the imminent annihilation or die trying. Galactic Dream: Rage of War brings you the shaped wings of your very galactic dreams: you will command Terran star-ships and psionic armadas in real time, you will experience war at a new scale having hundreds of units under your direct command and you will definitely enjoy a captivating storyline.

Thank you Nikon!

Re: You didn't exceed the 6k character restriction?

The OP is either working for Nikon or naive enough to speak in such a manner, so a company is manufacturing faulty products in the first place now facing press pressure from all the over the world. In order to save the brand name, they offer service for their own fault, and customers should thank them providing faulty products but had been keeping silence and did not act until pressured by the media recently? I think Nikon is the one who should write you a thank you card for being a such a generous customer who even bothered to post an one thousand word-essay here to thank their "kindness".

Canon 6D. Battery Life Horrible.

Canon 6D. Battery Life Horrible.

Hi -

I have a Canon 6D that if I let it 'sit' on battery for more than a day even in the off position the thing is dead when I pick it up again.

For example:

fully charged the batteries.   installed in grip (or, without grip before).  Shoot maybe 100 shots total, all photographs with no flash/wifi off/gps off.

I've tried both leaving it in 'standby' or flipping to the 'off' switch.

return camera to case.   Retrieve it 24 hours later, batteries are dead.

I used to do this with my previous bodies, no problem.  This was Canon 5D, Canon 20D, Canon D60.  All of them with medium to light non-flash usage would take a month before the battery would need a charge, or more when I had a grip and two batteries in it.

What am I missing?   what is doing this?   The main lens I use with the 24-105 F/4L IS lens.

On photo Wagons Roll in the The Western United States challenge (3 comments in total)

Yep, this whole wagon train is a life size statue right in the middle of the desert just outside of Santa Fe. Glad this caught some comments. I still love black-and-white, if it gave me an advantage then I guess I'm not the only one that likes B/W but I hope the subject content helped too. Thanks!

Eat Less, Live Longer?

FRIDAY, May 13 -- People who cut their daily caloric intake by 25 percent or more may live longer than those who do not, a new study suggests.

Researchers from the Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis found that significantly limiting calories lowers core body temperature (the temperature at which all of the functions in the body can operate with maximum efficiency), which has been shown to prolong life.

The study, published recently in the journal Aging, compared the core body temperatures of 24 people in their mid-50s who practiced calorie restriction for at least six years to 24 of their peers who ate a standard Western diet with higher calorie and fat intake. The core body temperatures of 24 endurance runners in the same age group were also measured to determine if simply being lean was enough to lower body temperature without calorie restriction.

"The people doing calorie restriction had a lower average core body temperature by about 0.2 degrees Celsius, which sounds like a modest reduction but is statistically significant and similar to the reduction we have observed in long-lived, calorie-restricted mice," principal investigator Dr. Luigi Fontana said in a news release from Washington University. "What is interesting about that is endurance athletes, who are the same age and are equally lean, don't have similar reductions in body temperature."

Although restricting calories can double or even triple the lifespan of simple organisms, the researchers admitted it is not yet clear how much longer calorie restriction might help humans live. The study authors noted that those who practice the strict diet hope to survive past 100 years.

The researchers also pointed out that simply lowering body temperature isn't enough to increase lifespan. Fontana noted that how lower core body temperatures are achieved is important. "I don't think it ever will be possible to be overweight and smoking and drinking and then take a pill, or several pills, to lower body temperature and lengthen lifespan," he said.

"What may be possible, however, is to do mild calorie restriction, to eat a very good diet, get mild exercise and then take a drug of some kind that could provide benefits similar to those seen in severe calorie restriction," Fontana added.

Natural Secretion Marks Difference Between Ordinary Mole and Melanoma

THURSDAY, Feb. 7 -- An anti-cancer protein that's naturally produced and secreted by the body can make the difference between a common mole and deadly melanoma skin cancer, a new study says.

If this IGFBP7 protein can be produced and delivered to tumors, it may prove effective as a targeted treatment for metastatic melanoma, which is currently untreatable. It may also prove useful in treating other cancers with mutations in the BRAF oncogene, said Michael Green, a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator at the University of Massachusetts Medical School.

Mutations that cause permanent activation of BRAF occur in as many as 70 percent of melanoma cases. These mutations, also found in some colorectal, ovarian and lung cancers, are associated with cell proliferation and tumor growth.

But up to 82 percent of benign moles also contain BRAF-activating mutations. Green and his colleagues investigated the differences between benign moles and melanoma in mice and zeroed in on the IGFBP7 protein.

"This is a natural mechanism by which cells try to prevent cancer. The secretion of this protein gets lost in the formation of cancer. But, because it is secreted, it might also be converted to a therapeutic," Green said in a prepared statement.

Last year, melanoma killed more than 8,000 people in the United States.

The study findings were published in the Feb. 8 issue of the journal Cell.

More information

The U.S. National Cancer Institute has more about melanoma.

Your next wallet could be a phone

Posted on Thursday, April 05 2007 @ 10:00:37 CEST by

ComputerWorld has an article about the future of mobile payments.

Here's a snip:
A wallet phone is simply a phone that can store the same data as the paper or plastic in your wallet -- credit card, ATM and debit card information -- and possibly receipts, ID, coupons, tickets, business cards and more -- in a way that lets you use that data for financial transactions.

They make that data usable through either a wireless chip -- a "contactless," or Near Field Communication (NFC) system; the SMS feature of the phone; or by displaying an on-screen bar code that can be scanned. Note that the industry doesn't need to standardize on one of these methods -- any phone should be able to do all three.

Wallet phones will be able to act both as mobile terminals (conducting secure transfers and transactions over the phone's Internet connection) and also functioning as smart cards, which replace cash even when the phone has no connection or battery life.

Kiel Working Paper 626
Empirical studies on industry lobbying sometimes reveal that certain firms within an industry behave atypically in that they promote cost driving regulations like, e.g., environmental standards. For analysing this phenomenon of 'strategic lobbying1, the present paper combines a heterogeneous Cournot-Nash oligopoly with a model of endogenous policy making where two parties compete for campaign contributions spent by the regulated industry. It is shown that the existence of potential regulation gains (and consequently the incentive for strategic lobbying activities) depends on the relationship between possible cost differentials and the market structure of the industry under consideration. Based on these results, the paper examines the effects of strategic lobbying for two different scenarios. The first scenario assumes that only one firm is engaged in lobbying, whereas the second scenario looks at simultaneous (competing) lobbying activities by several firms.

Cubaaz: Personalizing Your Passport to Cuba

Cubaaz is the groundbreaking touristic search engine that delivers the ultimate Cuban vacation. The founder Mossé Mickael and Indiegogo team up for tourism.

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, January 6, 2017 / -- Last year, the doors to Cuba were flung open as the island nation put out the welcome mat for the world. The country that was controlled by Fidel Castro is no longer closed to Americans who, along with visitors from all over the globe, are seeking an opportunity that will make their travel experience smooth and memorable. How do you get there? Where do you stay once you arrive? What should you do when you get there? That’s where Cubaaz, the ultimate twenty-first century travel agent, comes into play. is a groundbreaking touristic search engine that is solely dedicated to one place: Cuba. Cubaaz is now an Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign with the goal of raising $30,000 so that tourists can rely on one travel resource for their Cuban adventure.

Link to the Cubaaz Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign:

Mossé Mickael is the man whose vision, experience and insight created Cubaaz. At ease in communicating in Spanish, English, French, Italian and Portuguese, Mossé’s versatility translates into a language that all travelers can understand. What Mossé describes as integrity of information is Cubaaz offering accommodations, international and domestic airline bookings, rental cars, the personal prepaid Cubazz Card by MasterCard, a Cubazz Sim card, tours, packaged travel bookings, and excursion services with your own private driver. You’ll also have access to interactive travel forms providing reviews of travel-related content geared toward giving the traveler the kind of insights that can only come from a resource that knows Cuba well.

No graphically modified images here; Cubaaz is the real deal, a game-changer that’s designed exclusively with your destination and comfort in mind. Imagine a travel experience that’s customized for your interests, preferences, and wallet. Now you don’t have to imagine anymore because Cubaaz is your passport to Cuba as you’ve longed to see it. People who have planned and saved and dreamed of their vacation destination don’t want to be tied down; they want a travel process that’s easy to understand and to use. You can effortlessly organize your visit with the IOS and Android app, which contains a map of Cuba—available both online and offline—that shows you the tourist spots that you won’t want to miss. To make the experience even more comfortable, has prepaid MasterCards that can be used all over the island, from Havana to the beach and anywhere in between. Tourists will immediately perceive the advantage of this: there’s no need to struggle with currency differences, and you’ll avoid the transaction fees that your home bank would charge. You’re also liberated from the tourist’s eternal terror of relying on cash that’s easily lost by using your Cubaaz Card.

Mossé knows that the real Cuba is going to entice visitors because of its natural charm. So what visitors to see is what they’ll get because the images come from the Cubans themselves, the people who know their island best. Mossé is returning the favor. Not only has he employed Cubans to make your visit more authentic, but he’s also returning five percent of the profits to local Cuban charities. Tourism in Mossé’s vision isn’t merely a matter of airport arrivals and departures, it’s nurturing a network of connections to the island by building its social infrastructure. The competition can’t make that claim.

In order to understand just how and crowdfunding are going to facilitate your travel to Cuba, you need to meet the man whose vision has made Cubaaz such an innovative travel site. Mossé wants to make one thing clear: he wasn’t born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he made his own way. Self-educated, Mossé founded the First Real Transac group in 2013 and has advanced to the point where his international interests include real estate, cutting-edge technology, trade, and the import/export of international goods. He brings that knowledge to the newest tourist destination, Cuba.

Don’t book your trip to Cuba until you’ve checked out, the touristic search engine that personalizes your Cuban vacation to provide a unique travel experience that suits your interests. Cubaaz is the travel brain child of Mickael Mossé, who began his professional career in 2004 at Libentia, which specializes in telecommunications. Two years after joining a subsidiary of the First Real Estate group, he was sent to the head office in Italy where he was responsible for the recruitment of new associates and establishing partnerships with top-brand property investment companies. Cubaaz, the travel resource that focuses entirely on Cuba, offers help with accommodations, international and domestic airline bookings, rental cars, a prepaid Cubazz Card by MasterCard, a Sim card, and tours and private drivers. See Cuba through your own eyes with Cubaaz.

Did president approve buzzing New York?

Discussion in 'Politics & Religion' started by jficquette, Apr 30, 2009.

  1. "An Air Force officer who served in the Clinton White House and for two years carried the "nuclear football" briefcase of codes says it's almost certain that the "highest levels" of the Obama administration knew about and approved this week's stunt in which Air Force One buzzed New York City."

    "I think that it shows youâ¦ quite clearly the lack of knowledge, the lack of focus or the understanding the Obama White House has toward the military, much like my former boss President Bill Clinton. I think it also shows a kind of arrogance to using toys â I'm sure that would be a phrase President Obama might use, his 'toys' â to get photo op shots around New York City and not recall or remember what happened on 9/11 and the fact that it might have caused some alarm. And I think really, it shows again a hundred days, a hundred mistakes with the Obama administration."

Wealth, poverty and compassion

Discussion in 'Economics' started by hippie, Aug 8, 2010.

  1. http://www.economist.com/node/16690659

    LIFE at the bottom is nasty, brutish and short. For this reason, heartless folk might assume that people in the lower social classes will be more self-interested and less inclined to consider the welfare of others than upper-class individuals, who can afford a certain noblesse oblige. A recent study, however, challenges this idea. Experiments by Paul Piff and his colleagues at the University of California, Berkeley, reported this week in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, suggest precisely the opposite. It is the poor, not the rich, who are inclined to charity.......
  2. The reason why the rich are less inclined to split their income is because every dollar they might potentially throw at a poor person, will make them a little more equal with the distitute, on the financial scale, which will tremendously counterbalance the opulent's capital even if we're talking only about 0.00001 percentile. Just think about it, the most greedy well-to-do would rather strangle themselves than give away a penny, since, without doubt, they want to distinguish themselves from the poor by allowing money to dominate and keep the economically disadvantaged under their thumb. So why would they want to give up such a priviledge? After all, the only major difference between the rich and the poor is the thickness of their wallets anyway. We are all smart, good-looking and talented in our own ways!
  3. I think that some of the rich think that poverty and suffering are just a part of life that cannot be fixed by throwing money at it. More often than not, the rich realize the time value of money. They are less inclined to let someone else spend it on a one-time necessity, becauese it would be "wasted" compared to the opportunity cost of recycling it by buying assets.

    You could buy electric toothbrushes and floss for the poor, and you could argue that you are decreasing their tooth suffering, pocketbook suffering from infrequent visits to the dentist, and helping to reduce the carbon footprint of dentists because they won't make as much money on dentist visits. In reality, probably 95% of the oral tools won't be used to their productive capacity, and the situation stays the same.

    The problem as many see it is the wide gap in income and assets between the super rich and the super poor. In reality this is the symptom. I think that the root of the problem of poverty is that money or time is wasted adding value where its effect is marginal, and money or time is taken from those where its utility is high.
  4. On a "geometric basis" maybe. On an "arithmetic basis", no way Hozay. :eek:
  5. kxvid

    In my experience poor people are the more compassionate. Not all, some on government assistance are not the type you want to hang around. In general though, people who work for a living yet are still poor are some of the nicest and most understanding people on earth. Rich people live in their own world, poor people live in the real world. Poor people understand suffering in a way rich people can never understand.
  6. dtan1e

    Rich people tend to be full of self importance so having compassion is unlikely, its a sickness that comes with wealth not a character defect, once u become rich u act that way
  7. Why are we studying what other people should do with their money?

    Some academic should do a study called "butt the fuck out".
  8. Wow... that's quite a generization.. in fact.. BULLSHIT, as a generality.
  9. Darwinism... "survival of the fittest"... provide for yourself or perish... quit whining how "the world owes you a living"..

    Those on the dole should be grateful for WHATEVER they get... it's ingracious when they piss and moan that they don't "get more".
  10. Generosity is never measured by amount. If speaking monetarily, it is at least more properly measured by percentage.

    Darwin was correct in his descriptions, because he was describing animals and animal behaviour. Since we are all animals, the description fits.

    However, there are some who aspire to be more than just animals. Whether those ambitious succeed or not is actually for others to say, not for themselves. So even if you try, you will never be able to say yourself that you were successful that way.

FigurePets mark WoW's 5th Birthday Spyro style

Mark Turpin

I love FigurePrints and this has been widely documented. I stare at my FigurePrint of Turpster a hundred times a day. A model? Not just a model, but a FigurePrint. Handmade in Italy, they carve it out of illegal whalebone. They only make eleven of them a year. This one cost me $12,000 or 30 million liras. Perfectly balanced, low drag, minimal torque. (Please note: FigurePrints aren't constructed from illegal whalebone, nor do they cost $12,000 (only $129.95/€99.95) but Turpster's been watching far too many Will Farrell films lately.) No exaggeration, I could not love a human baby as much as I love my miniature real life version of my favorite fantasy Warcraft character.

The folks over at FigurePrints and FigurePets are introducing some great new products and features to coincide with WoW's 5th Anniversary. You'll find all of the new features now available on their site after the break.

They include:

An OnyAn Onyxian Whelpling FigurePetxian Whelpling FigurePet. This cute little guy matches the in-game pet Blizzard is introducing and will be available on the FigurePets website through the end of the year.

A Slain Onyxia Base. Now your character can be posed next to the head of the slain Onxyia! This base caries a small additional charge ($9.95, €7,99).

Along with the anniversary items FigurePrints/Pets also are introducing a few things to get ready for the holidays:

"Gift Certificates! This is something we've had a lot of requests for from customers. Now you can give a FigurePrints gift certificate for the holidays in any amount from $5 to $500 (or €5 to €500 for us Europeans)."A Slain Onyxia Base

Holiday Armor Sets! What better way to celebrate the holidays than by posing your naughty night elf in Winter Garb? Red and green are both available.

So if you are stuck for what gift to get the WoW fan who has it all this upcoming holiday season I can personally recommend a FigurePrint, and the gift certificate means that they can have their FigurePrint just how they want it.

HTC EVO Shift 4G (Knight / Speedy) gets leaked picture, January 9th release date?

Sean Hollister

We'll warn you that we have nothing but the word of an alleged Sprint employee that this is the real deal, but we don't know what else it could be -- if it walks like a duck and quacks like an EVO with a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, we're inclined to believe it's the HTC EVO Shift 4G. Factor in the noticeable lack of front-facing camera, silver trackpad and those throwback flat keys, and we're even willing to forgive those hastily penciled watermarks on the keyboard and on top of the clearly 'shopped screen. Even if this shot is legit, we haven't seen the full device yet -- it sure looks like this Knight is wearing a suit of plastic armor around the edges.

In possibly related news, Android Central nabbed an alleged screenshot of a Sprint database showing an "HTC A7373" handset coming to Sprint on January 9th, and while one Russian e-tailer seems to think that codename refers to the GSM-friendly Desire Z, we have to imagine a Knight / Speedy / EVO Shift release is far more likely than a T-Mobile G2 redux on Sprint's CDMA frequencies.

Update: Just to be clear, there are a few things about this image that irk us, not least of which that pasted-on screen. We're inclined to think this might be a dummy unit that was touched up to look like a real phone.

English version of Phantasy Star Online 2 launches in Asia

With no confirmation of plans for a North American release of Phantasy Star Online 2, it'd be understandable if fans are frustrated by this week's launch of English servers in Southeast Asia, as reported by Siliconera. That's why we paired the news with the above photo of upbeat, happy-to-see-you birds! That ... makes it better, right? No?

To make matters worse, activity on the Phantasy Star Online 2 English Facebook page, as documented by PSO2 Blog, suggests that English-speaking fans living outside of Southeast Asia won't be able to join in due to an IP block for other regions. The page's About section supports this, stating that the English version is published by Asiasoft Online for Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vientam, Indonesia and the Philippines.

The appearance of English-based servers would help explain October's rumor, as reported by Massively, of a Western release of PSO2 being unlikely, despite the game being "fully localized." If that localization work was only for servers in Southeast Asia and will never amount to something that would be used stateside, well ... that's a shame. Don't bother emailing Sega to see what's up, either - the status of a Western PSO2 is among the list of things the publisher can't answer.
