Artist's impression: Astronomers have discovered the most Earth-like planet outside our Solar System to date, an exoplanet with a radius only 50% larger than the Earth and possibly having liquid water on its surface.

Google is once again dangling incentives before engineers. Google's Chrome browser earned its developers millions in stock bonuses. (Credit: Google) The company threw open its doors Monday to the engineering community Monday, announcing that it granted a Founders' Prize--"a multimillion-dollar stock bonus"--to the team that developed Google Chrome. "(The) future is shaped by small teams of creative people who want to make a difference. We're on the hunt for these kind of people -- let us know if you think you're one of them," wrote Alan Eustace, senior vice president for engineering and research at Google. Google is still one of Silicon Valley's most generous companies in terms of employee perks, but Google's hiring slowed over the past year as the recession took hold and the company scaled back some of those famous extras. Google even was forced to cut employees in March, and has also suffered as a number of high-profile employees decided to...

by Stephen Shankland Sure, rivals could profit from Yahoo's release of Traffic Server as open-source software. But overall, Yahoo bets it'll gain more than it loses by giving it away. Betting that the benefits of the move will outweigh the risks, Yahoo has released the source code underlying in-house software called Traffic Server that can speed up Web site operations... The software works by moving some data and operations closer on the Internet to the people trying using those services. Yahoo released it as an "incubator" project under the auspices of the Apache Software Foundation, a seasoned organization for managing open-source projects and also the site that houses the Hadoop open-source project Yahoo favors for large-scale data-processing challenges. Shelton Shugar, Yahoo's senior vice president of cloud computing (Credit: Screenshot by Stephen Shankland/CNET) "We've donated Traffic Server to Apache because we think it's a great piece of code...

Mirror, mirror on the wall: Who's the best-groomed candidate of them all? Posted by: Meridith Levinson in News IT professionals turn to résumé writers when they need help fashioning a C.V. that will prompt employers to call them for job interviews. But their résumés may not be the only thing that needs a makeover. If they're going on interviews but not getting any job offers, their appearance may need polishing, too. That's the conclusion of a recent survey of 514 HR professionals. The survey results emphasize the role personal grooming plays in one's career growth and job search success. The overwhelming majority (90 percent) of HR professionals said that a job seeker's appearance (whether he or she looks neat and clean) is most important to making a good first impression during a job interview. It's more important than a firm handshake, they said. Well-groomed candidates project more confidence than candidates who don't pay close attention to their app...

Intel Producing First Processor Prototypes With New, Tiny 45 Nanometer Transistors, Accelerating Era of Multi-Core Computing SANTA CLARA, Calif.– In one of the biggest advancements in fundamental transistor design, Intel Corporation today revealed that it is using two dramatically new materials to build the insulating walls and switching gates of its 45 nanometer (nm) transistors. Hundreds of millions of these microscopic transistors – or switches – will be inside the next generation Intel® Core™ 2 Duo, Intel Core 2 Quad and Xeon® families of multi-core processors. The company also said it has five early-version products up and running -- the first of fifteen 45nm processor products planned from Intel. The transistor feat allows the company to continue delivering record-breaking PC, laptop and server processor speeds, while reducing the amount of electrical leakage from transistors that can hamper chip and PC design, size, power consumption, noise and costs. It also ensures Moore's...

"This resulted in a large number of people hammering the site to obtain a local mirror. This minor panic reminded me of the importance of a good site mirroring tool. "The quickest and easiest way to mirror a remote Web site is to use wget. Wget is similar to cURL (and I’ll be the first to admit that I prefer cURL over wget), but wget has some really slick and useful features that aren’t found in cURL, such as a means to download an entire Web site for local viewing:" Recently, one of my favorite security-related sites was almost shut down due to the operator’s lack of time to keep it up to date. The site provided proof-of-concept and exploit code for various security vulnerabilities in a wide range of products across multiple platforms. The site, milw0rm, is invaluable to security researchers, and not to have access to that data would have been a huge loss. Of course, once I heard the site might be going down, it was a mad rush between myself and many other security ...

The world's largest manufacturer of mobile phones will join the PC market with its Booklet 3G netbook. The Windows-based device is about 2cm thick and will offer 3G connectivity as well as wi-fi. Analysts said the laptop was a "natural extension" of the company's product range but the firm would face stiff competition. Nokia will release price and availability information at an event in Stuttgart on 2 September.The Booklet has an aluminium case, weighs 1.25 kilograms (2.75 lbs) and its 10-inch screen is HD-ready.Nokia has released a number of small, "tablet"-style internet-enabled devices in the past to mixed reviews, but this is the first effort which is claimed to be a full-function PC."A growing number of people want the computing power of a PC with the full benefits of mobility," said Kai Oistamo, Nokia's executive vice president for devices."We are in the business of connecting people and the Nokia Booklet 3G is a natural evolution fo...

If science fiction authors and Star Trek writers can envision life as we don't know it ... then surely the Universe is equally creative. - Michael Lemonick It was recently estimated that there are 70 thousand million million million observable stars in the universe, not to mention those that are beyond our detection. Given this, it is my personal belief is that we are not alone in the universe. There's no real science behind this belief, but to me the size and numbers involved seem to indicate that there is more than a fair chance that there is life, intelligent or otherwise, somewhere out there. Otherwise, it would be an incredible waste of space. Frank Drake and his famous equation. There are, of course, many people who are more scientific in their approach to determining the existence of life beyond earth than I am. One such person is Frank Drake. Currently Chairman of the Board of the SETI Institute, in 1961 he developed the now famous Drake equation, which for the first t...

Scientists expect the impact to blast out a huge cloud of dust, gas and vaporized water ice at least 6 miles high. The aim is to see whether any traces of water will be revealed by the disruption caused to the planet's surface. NASA will analyze the space cloud caused by the explosion for any sign of water or vapour. Scientists expect the impact to blast out a huge cloud of dust, gas and vaporized water ice at least 6 miles high - making it visible from Earth.   If the search is successful it could provide vital supplies for a moon base. The moon is mostly dry desert but ice may be trapped in craters which never see sunlight. The unmanned Lunar Crater Observation and Sensing Satellite mission (LCROSS) will fire a Centaur rocket into the surface at twice the speed of a bullet. An accompanying spacecraft will orbit the moon for a year looking for possible landing sites for astronauts. The Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter will spend at least a year creating the most minutely detailed map ...

Have stomach ulser, going out to dinner...What can i do? easy 10 points? I have a list from the doctor saying the things im not allowed to eat or do... 1. NO spicy foods 2. NO vinigar based food 3. NO excess fats 4. NO alcohol, marijuana, tabacco, or other drug use 5. Nothing fryed, or strongly flavored seasonings and condiments

adequate nutrition. Milk, cream, butter, fruits, fresh raw and boiled vegetables, natural foods, and natural vitamin supplements constitute the best diet. The patient needs to take at least 7-8 glass....Avoid hot spicy food/deep fried/tea/milk/meat. Should have soft food like curd/moong daal/khichri etc. This is my advice as a doctor....The diet of the patient suffering from a stomach ulcer should provide

Your stomach ulser may not be from stress, overwork, worry or any psychological cause. Changing your job, taking a holiday, correct eating or mellowing out wont fix your stomach ulser. Duodenal ulser or peptic ulser, the same thing applies. THE STOMACH ULSER REMEDY Cause of stomach ulsers The most common cause of stomach ulsers is a bacteria called Helicobacter pylori. It has been suggested that H pylori are not directly responsible for stomach ulsers but exploit any weakness in the stomach lining thus making it worse and indirectly causing a more severe condition. The rest are caused by the intake of strong and acidic pain killers or any other highly acidic substances. I suspect that alcoholics on a drinking binge may also suffer from stomach ulsers, I am not so sure if my stomach ulser remedy will work in that situation. Stomach ulser symptoms Stomach ulser symptoms include a gnawing pain in the solar plexus area accompanied by a corresponding back ache. A feeling of extreme bloat...
