Breast Cancer Detector

Salam everyone..
Hope you guys doing ok..
So, for this post, I want to share about this new health information I got yesterday.

Do you know that there is a device out there that could detect the breast cancer?
I'm not talking about mammogram though,because this device  is way better than a  mammogram.

It is a bra that could actually could sense the changes of your breast and detect the very first signs of breast cancer. 
The technology may actually be able to detect tissue changes that can occur years before a tumor forms and this miraculous bra may be useful as an office cancer screening tool of maybe even as an over the counter testing device.

                        

.















However, the price would be costly. People might think that  1000 dollars for a bra is not worth it but are you really sure that your breast is healthy?. 
Anyway, I'm not deny the existence of mammogram which is free, but for some people, they just too shy to come forward and feel uncomfortable to let some stranger medical officer seeing they undress and looking at they their breast in order to get check. Thus, this device is an alternative for you and if you afford to buy it,  why not ? 

For man out there, don't take this post as gender bias or something. It is an information that you should know and very useful later for your woman in future.

Facts: In 2011, there were 230,489 new breast cancer cases and 39,520 deaths attributed to the disease, according to the American Cancer Society.

Anyhow, I hope this information  is beneficial and  useful.  Remember, prevention is better than cure! 
Spread the words people! 

Listen to Cool stuff: Podcast's (Psst: free download...)

Salam friends and madam,

Alright, I think everyone knows that I have a thing for streaming music or any audio related stuff. 

Last time I talked about 8tracks and know I'm going to talk about Radiolab (podcast's). 

I know podcast aren't a new thing but I think people don't listen to them anymore...  I remembered when Youtube wasn't around yet, podcast was at its height! I mean my older brother would listen to podcast like it was a calling everyday, well at the time; early year 2000 like that.

Well, I present to you Radiolab.

Basically you can choose an array of topics they have and listen to them.

To me its cool and will forever be cool because your listening to knowledge, kind of like lectures and the best part is you can turn it off when you want to. I mean where else would you listen to an in-depth conversation about quantum physics in our daily life? (I like physics^^)

Oh, yeah. You can even download them.

Plus it makes driving seem way more faster, like someones there talking to you (about knowledge and not what a terrible day they had) *cringe*.

The titles are all fascinating, the kind of topics that you'll rarely ever get the chance to talk about.

This is one my favorites:

It talks about repeated sequences in our life like the patterns that we tend to go in over and over again...

They also have a Radiolab blogs; this is a topic we English teachers can relate to:

Some radiolab blogs have some podcast attached to them while some don't. The above doesn't have any.

*Plus, you don't need to sign up at all unless you want to. If you sign up you'll get update on new podcast and you get to select more topics. Then, just listen when you want to.

Sign up, you've got nothing to lose, even better you get knowledge. As usual follow the instruction and your good to go.

Give it a go, whenever you have the time to spend and the stable internet connection.

Disclaimer: When you first start listening the first few seconds would be about sponsors and stuff... Wait a while and let the knowledge begin...

That's all from me, hope you all learned something from this post.

Decay: A fate after death.

Salam, madam and friends.

You must be asking, "What kind of post is this? decay, seriously?!" 

Well, just this morning I came across a decaying carcass of a cat. I was not disgusted, not one bit but fascinated for a while and starred at the decaying mass for solid 10 minutes. People gave me weird looks.

This is a gif image of decay; in super fast forward. (Poor fox)

I think it amazing that someone would take the time to film this slow and cruel process mother nature does. I can't imagine the amount of film they had to render to get the original footage. This is through the technological aspect, though.

I think decay is a very detailed process. So, I looked online and found an interesting documentary on it.

If you have the time and fast internet connection, watch it! its very "eye opening"...

Things we never thought we would ever care about, is there for us to watch.

Alright, that's all. Hope you'll learned something.

Mars Rover

                                  What should we name NASA’s new Mars Rover?

During a surprise press conference on Dec. 4, NASA announced plans for the new rover that will launch to Mars in 2020. 

The previous rover was named as Curiosity. It costs $2.5 billion.

To keep costs down, engineers will borrow Curiosity's blueprints, recycle spare parts where possible and use proven technology including the novel landing gear that delivered the car-size rover inside an ancient crater in August.

But many other details still need to be worked out, including where the rover will land and the types of tools it will carry to the surface.

Awesome, right?

If you have suggestion for this new rover's name, you can use hashtag #newmarsrovernames on Twitter.

 Who knows NASA will pay you for it?  ;D

Speak the text out loud

Hello all.

Last time I posted about tweets that speak. This time around my post will be about something related to text to speech processing technology as well, but in different context.  

Here you go; 

Announcify is an app that allows you to convert text to speech. It is available for Chrome as an extension and Android as an application. And yes, it's free, people. 

If Announcify is installed in Chrome, you just click the icon and it will speak the content of the website that you select. This is beneficial for us as future teachers as well as this app can help students that might need some support in reading materials online. 

If you have it installed in your phone, it can actually read text messages for you or any other documents that you've selected to be read.

So it makes your job simpler.. no more lengthy reads! Have it downloaded to your Chrome or phone now :)

Have a good day!
