The longer, where the various sources of energy used during the thinning, it is also a positive effect. Because, apparently, now appears many sources of alternative energy is very innovative. Starting from the energy of sunlight processing, energy from waste materials, to the energy that is sometimes not thought about before.
For this last category, one of the innovations that are energy-processing trend is with human power. Able from the human body heat, to the movements caused by humans. Human motion is one of them developed by a company from the Japanese electronics giant, Sony.
They recently introduced a prototype digital camera that uses the energy from the movement of the hand. Electrical energy from the camera-named “Twirl N ‘Take” is derived from such a turbine rotated by hand to produce energy battery energy to shoot.
This camera is shaped like a pizza cutter. One end there can wheel spin. That part is functioning as a turbine, which, if this part of the user with movable on the table, will enable generators. Only with the wheel movements continuously for about 15 seconds, the energy produced can be used to take pictures of all shots. So, to make shooting, was a bit tricky. But, clearly, this innovation is very safe and friendly environment. Moreover, its unique enough, will please the kids.
Unfortunately, this camera is not equipped display. Therefore, to see the tape, the camera must be connected to the computer first.
The development of this camera is part of Sony raise awareness of the environment with eco-friendly products that generate electricity from the surroundings. The camera is one product line called Odo. Other products developed Odo Sony, for example, video cameras Crank N ‘Capture the power plant equipped with a crank (lever) and the camera Spin N’ Snap is a hole in the side wheels can be played with the fingers to produce electricity.
If these technologies continue to be developed, perhaps in the future we no longer have to worry about run out of energy. Hopefully.

Burn Calories with Sports Brain
By: Team Andriewongso.com
Sports proved challenging brain can burn about 90 calories per hour. Thus Forrester research team, mental intelligence experts from the UK.
“Our brain takes 0.1 calories per minute (or 6 calories per hour) to just survive,” said Tim, recently. “But he’s trying to give ‘job is challenging, like finishing the game puzzles, crosswords, sudoku, or a difficult quiz. For working hard, caloric needs will increase to 1.5 calories per minute (or 90 calories per hour)!”
“You know,” continued Tim, “the brain is composed of millions of nerve cells are interconnected.’s Called ‘neurons’. Well, these neurons took 3 / 4 of glucose, calories are available, and 1 / 5 oxygen from the blood to create material chemicals called ‘neurotransmitters’, whose job is to convey a message to the whole body. “
“The more difficult puzzles, crosswords, sudoku, or quiz that you choose, and the longer you work, the more glucose and calories are ‘withdrawn’ by the brain,” he concluded.
Hmmm imagine, if the deals completed puzzle sudoku and some problems for 2 hours, you have to spend 180 calories. More than the calories in a biscuit (100 calories), or two hours of calories you spend while standing at the bus / train (140 calories).
Mental Intelligence
My friends, the British Association’s Diet has cautioned, exercise your brain will not make your body slimmer. Because, although necessary ‘capital’ to think hard, the brain does not use fat. In contrast to sugar, fat molecules can not be broken down into glucose. So for you who want to lose weight, keep exercising (physical) regularly and apply a healthy diet.
But the brain also sports should not be abandoned. Consider the opinion of the championship eight times World Memory Champion, Dominic O’Brien (52 years). According to this English guy, just like our bodies, the brain also needs regular exercise to maintain, even increase, the mental intellect plus memory.

Article Rating:
By: Team AndrieWongso.com
Have emotional (mood / mood) is positive, many benefits. One of them, can ease the pain! Thus the conclusion of the study from a team of scientists, led by Mathieu Roy from Columbia University, New York, USA.
“We are investigating the relationship between brain, emotion, and pain. Exactly what happens when the pain felt by our brains, and how if it is combined with negative emotions,” said Roy. “Apparently, emotions can determine how we react to pain, because they are related.”
Research
Tim Roy studied the reaction of 13 research subjects that cause shock knee jerk study participants. When the study participants felt that electric shock, they saw the pictures of pleasant (eg a water skiing in the summer), unpleasant (such as a scary bear), and neutral (eg a book).
Well, at the same time, the research team scanned the brain activity of participants.
“We found that looking at the pictures unpleasant pain is stronger in the study subjects who experienced the shock (due to electric shock) than if you see pictures of fun,” said Roy.
The research seems to support previous studies that revealed Roy pleasant music can ease the pain. “Our findings demonstrate the non drug intervention obatanm, such as photography or music that can enhance one’s mood, can be used in health care to ease the pain!”
The latest findings from Roy’s team has appeared in “Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences” edition last week.

Efficient Use of Energy in Computers
By: Team Andriewongso.com
Electrical energy savings in daily use computer has now become a new trend.
Many benefits can we get from the electric energy savings. For example, we can save electricity costs. We also can help save the Earth. Save electricity means saving natural resources used to produce electrical energy, while reducing exhaust gas produced by combustion of natural resources.
Now, there are various kinds of devices are energy-efficient computers. Largest information technology fair in the world this year too, the CeBIT (Centrum der Büro und Informationstechnik), which took place in Hanover – Germany in March 2009, the main theme “Green IT World” or “world of green information technology ‘.
We can follow the trend of energy saving! One way, first, by turning off the computer when you come home from work. According to research, if not forget to 100,000 computers off after work time, then more than 2680 kilowatts of electrical energy that can be saved every day. This is equivalent to 3562 lbs reducing carbon dioxide emissions produced by 107 cars in the street.
Second, consider the energy requirements on the computer when we bought a new device. Look carefully, Personal Computer (PC) or laptop like what we need? What parts installed? For example, the processor. Now, there are energy-efficient processors. Soon, there will be a zero-watt monitor standby, which really no longer suck electricity while in standby position. Or will there is also a null-watt PC, the personal computer energy needs zero at standby!
In addition, you should also remember this logic: an electronic device will be more efficient if the electricity needs of the less. Conversely, the greater the size of the device, then the electrical energy will be increasingly wasteful. A notebook / laptop for example, clearly requires less energy than desk-top computers. And, flat-screen monitor more energy efficient than old-style monitors still use cathode tube technology.
Come on, together, we try to save energy!
