My Fav Android game-Nin jump



Backflip Studios have proven themselves time and again to be among the best developers in the world of free Phone gaming. Paper Toss became a national obsession when it first launched, with both Strike Knight and Graffiti Ball receiving their own share of critical acclaim. Now Backflip has decided to tackle the ever-popular survival genre, offering up their first game about a ninja that loves to climb.
At first glance, Ninjump looks like little more than a clone of Ninjatown: Trees of Doom, but dig a little under the surface and you’ll find that Backflip’s latest offering does more than enough to set itself apart from its likely inspiration. Gameplay here is fast and twitchy, unlike the slow and steady pace of its competitor. Your ninja runs along the wall at a rather maddening pace without any help from you. In fact, the only control you’ll have over your character is tapping the screen to initiate a jump from one wall to another. Thanks to a good assortment of obstacles, you’ll find yourself tapping up a frenzy in no time.
 The presentation in Ninjump is simple but sufficient. There’s nothing really flashy here, but little touches like watching your ninja sprout a big puffy tail after defeating three squirrels, or watching your protective bubble spin in a circle as you climb, really showed that some thought went into the graphics. The music is a good fit as well, offering up oriental-style excitement that matched both the pace and theme of the offering.

At last all i can say is  if you love games definitely try this one it's worth playing.

Toray’s touchscreen film self-repairs a scratch in 10 seconds


The issue of carrying around mobile devices with large, brittle glass displays was solved when Gorilla Glass came on the scene. But those shiny touchscreens are still prone to picking up the odd scratch while nestled in your pocket.
You can put a screen protector over the top to help prevent them, but then if the protector gets damaged they need replacing. However, Japanese company Toray believes it has a solution in the form of a self-repairing film.
The film actually isn’t that new. Toray has been offering it as a decorative solution for applying to laptop casing and other larger devices. Until now it hasn’t been considered for actual screens, but with a move to mass production and a few properties that make it suitable, self-repairing touchscreen film is on its way to market.
At room temperature the film is capable of repairing minor scratches in as little as 10 seconds. At the same time it is very flexible, meaning it won’t crack or peel, and allows 90% of light to pass through it making it suitable for placing over a bright display. As for how long it lasts, Toray’s tests have shown no degradation in performance after 20,000 scratch repairs.
The film will be on display next week at the Highly-functional Film Technology Expo in Tokyo. Hopefully we’ll get to see video footage of a 10-second scratch repair during the show as well as finding out just how much of an impact the film has when attached to a smartphone or tablet.
Toray has another film in the works that solves a different problem for touchscreens: that of fingerprints. By employing a surface that is wrinkled at the nanometer level and coated with oil-repellent material, the company has managed to significantly reduce the marks fingers leave on a display. If only they could combine the self-repair and fingerprint repellent films they’d have device manufacturers and consumers falling over each other to place orders.

Plasma flashlight instantly kills any bacteria on your skin


A new plasma device, created by the joint efforts of the Australian national science agency CSIRO and China’s Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST), is capable of ridding your skin from harmful bacteria in just a few seconds. According to a paper submitted to the Journal of Physics last February, the “Portable Plasma Flashlight” is able to burn through 17 different layers of bacteria that could reside on human skin without any tissue damage. With the device emitting plasma that only reaches temperatures between 68 and 73 degrees Fahrenheit, the door has opened to using the technology in the field of medicine.
For years researchers have been looking for a way to make bacteria inactive, and thus non-harmful, to humans. Until this current plasma breakthrough, high levels of heat were required to destroy the harmful micro-organisms making it impractical for medical use. You wouldn’t want a doctor aiming a 185 degree light onto an open wound on your arm would you? The reason for this is the fact that bacteria create thick biofilms to protect themselves from outside anti agents, a sort of molecular armor if you will. While heat and everyday soaps and washing can remove the bacteria, they don’t necessarily render them inert. This is where the plasma flashlight comes in.
While the exact biological process is not fully understood, the theory is that plasma interacts with the air around it to create a reaction that acts like our immune systems. To test out their theories, the joint research team allowed bacteria to culture for seven days to make sure they had a vibrant colony in a petri dish. Upon applying the plasma directly to this grouping of bacteria, the scientists witnessed it not only making the top layer of organisms inactive, but burning all the way down to the very last layers and killing those as well. It was a huge success.
With the fact that the device only costs $100 to manufacture, it’s a good bet that you’ll be seeing this technology available commercially in the near future. The research team sees the units being carried by ambulances, military medical personnel and emergency rooms the world over. It’s also not too far-fetched of an idea that miniaturized versions of the flashlight can be carried in a person’s purse or pocket in place of the bottle of hand sanitizer  that occupies that space now. Right now the large device pictured above is powered by just a 12-volt battery that doesn’t require any kind of external power. In addition, the unit’s plasma processing faculties are entirely self-contained. To control the unit from overheating, resistors have been installed to regulate the unit from becoming too hot to touch.
Some of the more immediate applications reside in your dentist’s office, as the testing for the device was done on Enterococcus faecalis, the bacterial culprit for many of the infections that result from a person undergoing a root canal. Potentially fatal to humans, the bacteria has created a strong immunity to antibiotics over the years. So the next time your dentist tells you to open up and then he shines a light on your teeth and gums, feel secure in knowing that it’s helping to keep you healthy.

Check if your Mac has the Flashback trojan


If you’ve been following the tech news over the past few days, you’ve probably seen a few mentions of the Flashback trojan. It’s been said that over 550,000 Macs have been infected, which is a staggering amount considering the relative safety (or at least the perceived safety) of OS X. The malicious software has been known of for a few months now — it disguised itself as a Flash installer, making it seem like an innocuous addition to your computer, when it was anything but.
But how to do you find out if your Mac is infected with Flashback? It’s surprisingly easy — a tool that will diagnose your computer is available here. You just need to download it, unzip the package, and then run the two applications within. Hopefully you’ll see something like this:


                             



If you were affect, the removal process is outlined here. F-Secure’s instructions look pretty complex, they mostly involve finding the terminal and then copying and pasting.
And, don’t worry, the good folks at Apple are on top of the issue. An update made available today, known as Java for OS X 2012-002, will address the problem. It might seems like a nondescript OS update but it includes two important components. The eponymous one is a Java update that brings Java SE 6 to version 1.6.0_31. The other, HT1222, is the security component, though no explanation is offered as to what was specifically changed aside from it dealing with Java.
This is the second update Apple has issued in response to Flashback. And, this time, only OS X 10.7 (Lion) systems received the patch. Java for OS X 2012-002 is available now and does not require a restart. OS X Lion users simply need to go to the Apple icon (on the top left) and then choose “Software Update” to get it.
While Macs are affected, the malware exploits a flaw in Java not OS X specifically (though Apple maintains its own version of Java, so you can look at the situation either way). Even so, this can be seen as a sign of things to come for Mac users — as the operating system get more popular the computers using it will increasingly be a target for attacks like this one. The install base is still relatively small compared to that of Windows, but it’s large enough that OS X is a worthwhile target. The days of OS X users gallivanting around the internet with impunity are over, so get some security software and think twice about what you install.




April 10 is the day Vista dies


When you log on to a Windows PC, odds are good that there will be updates of some sort waiting for you. The bubble pops up, and you grudgingly apply the updates, restart if necessary, then go on with your day. This is an experience users of Windows Vista will be having a lot less often going forward. No, Microsoft isn’t streamlining the updates — April 10, 2012 is the end of full support for the black sheep of the Redmond family, Windows Vista.
Windows Vista launched back in 2007 to a nearly unanimous chorus of jeers from reviewers and users alike. The OS was plagued with odd bugs and random slowdowns. Hardware compatibility was also atrocious. Patches and Service Packs eventually fixed most of the problems, but Vista’s name was too sullied to succeed.
Perhaps this disastrous launch is the reason for Windows XP’s continued use. A huge number of PCs still run Microsoft’s 11 year-old software, and support for XP is continuing for two more years. Not bad considering it came out 6 years before Vista.
This doesn’t mean that users of Vista are being left totally out in the cold. While full support is ending, the operating system will be entering what is generously known as “extended support.” Microsoft will continue to offer important security patches, but that’s just about it. All other updates and support for the software will be provided on a paid-only basis. For regular people, though, this is the end of Vista updates.
The bubble of extended support will continue until 2017, when the handful of remaining Vista users will finally have to update to some other flavor of Windows. In addition to Vista, Office 2007 is exiting full support. Whether or not you personally used Vista, it’s been fascinating to watch the world’s biggest software company take a mulligan on an entire operating system.

How to Use G-Mail Storage Space Efficiently

Well we all use g-mail as our primary e-mail for many purposes online,but do you know that g-mail has over 7.4 GB of storage space available.Well that's a lot of space for storing only e-mails ain't it?
Well today I'm going to explain you a method through which you can use your g-mail account to store important files & documents online for free with your g-mail
Requirements:

1. A g-mail account

2. Internet connection
Set up process: Well there are many methods that are available to store or utilize space on your g-mail account but the method I'm going to explain you today is the e-mail method, so here it goes


First of all when you open your g-mail account go to labels and create a new label especially for this purpose. If it's a business document or file create a label on that name or if it's a personal file create a label under the same name



Create a new filter for this purpose it can be found in the settings option, the purpose of creating this filter is to avoid other e-mails coming in to your account



Name the filter specifically as "Store documents" or "store files"



The next step is applying the label & creating the filter



Select the file you want to send to your account make sure it is compressed so that it occupies less space & even makes it easier for you when you want to download



After selecting the file right click on the file & send it to e-mail recipient, this will default opens your e-mail client. Make sure it is not an g-mail account because otherwise your saved files appear in the sent folder in Gmail as well as in the inbox



Send the file to Gmail as an attachment. In the subject line, use one of the keywords you used for your filters, "Store Documents" for example. Send the email. When received, the label is automatically applied

So this is one of the methods to store space on the g-mail account
Limitations:
Don't send a file larger than twenty five Mb because the file won't be stored
Don't send one large file at a time instead of that send a compressed file or pieces of file
Among the different methods available to you in using the g-mail as an storage space.This is the best method available because all you need to have is an g-mail account and you can access your important files & documents anywhere you go

Gmail drive-Another method of using Gmail space


Gmail Drive



Gmail Drive is not very popular and widely adopted tool. However, I am sure many of you will like it. It’s a very small program, which lets gmail users utilize their gmail storage (approx 2.5 GB) in the same way as they use storage on their computers. GMail Drive literally adds a new drive to your computer under the My Computer folder, where you can create new folders, store and drag’n'drop files, once installed it’ll appear as ‘GMail Drive’ (picture above). When opened for the first time you are reqired to provide your gmail address and password so that program can access their account.
Afterwards you simply can drag’n'drop any files to the drive. When you add files to gmail drive, it will immediately upload files to user’s gmail account. You can easily access/edit/delete these files anytime by simply opening the drive. There are couple of things you need to be careful of though;
  • Max file size is 10 MB: When you add file to gmail drive, to store this file on your gmail account program sends an email to your account with the file as an attachment. Because, Google allows only attachment of files smaller then 10 MB size program can not send an email with file bigger then 10 MB in size.
  • Filenames should not exceed 65 characters in length.
 You can think of this one as an extra 2.5 GB storage. However, it is important to keep in mnd that everytime the file is dragged to the drive it will have to be uploaded to gmail first and therefore moving slightly big files may take time for an upload to complete. An ideal way would be to use these drive for documents that you need to access from somewhere else. Ex: presentations, homework assignments, etc.

    Restart Firefox to activate the extension. Find the "G" icon in your browser toolbar and click to begin using the control. This opens up a typical file transfer window, with your system windows on the left and gmail storage space on the right.

    Create new folders on the right in the gmail space just as you would when creating a different directory on your computer.



  • 4
    Select the files or folders on your system on the left and the folder where you want to move them on the right and click upload arrow. Files already sitting in the gmail space can be downloaded too.

    Access these files from any web browser. Gspace applies a File label to all files uploaded for easy retrieval and file recovery.


  • Limitations:

    • File names should be less than 65 characters long.
    • The file size limit corresponds to the maximum size of attachments for mails sent with Google Mail. Presently, this is 25MB.
    • Since files are stored as email attachments in your personal email account, you cannot share these files directly with your friends, unless you grant them access to the respective account.
