i might get the

 Droid fix because they are a touch screen and i like Motorola cell phones mainly call me wht ever but i have just about always had one Motorola even when i had a

LG or whatever else i would have 2 phones then.

th Droid as 3.7" WVGA screen, the same speedy ARM Cortex A8-based processor that powers the Pre and the iPhone 3GS, and a modern smartphone OS.

The overall hardware specs are:

• CPU: TI OMAP 3430 (Arm Cortex A8 @ 550 mhz, PowerVR SGX 530)
• RAM: 256MB
• Flash Memory: 512MB built in (for program storage)
• Secondary: 16GB removable MicroSD (for music/images/general storage)

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- President Obama plans to send another 4,000 troops to Afghanistan along with hundreds of

 civilian specialists in an effort to confront what he considers "the central challenge facing [that] country," senior administration officials said Thursday.

The president also will call on Congress to pass a bill that triples U.S. aid to Pakistan to $1.5 billion a year over five years, the officials said.

Even though Obama says that this plan will help us pull out sooner, I am disappointed in him.  When he was running for office, he claimed that he would have all troops home in six months, and the people who believed him now know that it truly was impossible, and they were lied to.

Recently google anounced a new net book that would use could data and application instead of having large

internal memeory, it uses could network to have your data stored on google system storages around the world.

This is just begging you to have your personal data mined by some sniffer, or other data mining program.

New Moon broke The Dark Knight's single day box office record. Are you planning on seeing this teenage vampire love story? If so: Team Edward or Team Jacob?

 

...pffffffffftttt HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA XD Honestly, I can't stand Stephanie Meyer(go ahead twitards. bring the F*#king heat.), so neither. That's absolute bullcrap that it broke TDK's record. That movie was WAY more epic, New Moon is just tween fanservice with a mediocre plot. (-.-) ..!..

You can forgive AMD for stealing a line from Nvidia’s playbook. From the name and marketing materials, it’s not obvious that this card is a dual GPU card. One AMD chart even refers to the card as the “ATI Radeon HD 5970 GPU,” much like Nvidia’s 295 GTX is a dual GPU card that’s sold as if it were a normal graphics card.

Let’s take a quick look at the speeds and feeds of the new card, and then discuss additional features. We’ll compare them to the Radeon HD 5870 single GPU card; there are differences in core and memory clock speeds.

Nvidia, who?

Retinal scan

A retinal scan is a biometric technique that uses the unique patterns on a person's retina to identify them. It is not to be confused with another ocular-based technology, iris recognition.

 Introduction

The human retina is a thin tissue composed of neural cells that is located in the posterior portion of the eye. Because of the complex structure of the capillaries that supply the retina with blood, each person's retina is unique. The network of blood vessels in the retina is so complex that even identical twins do not share a similar pattern.

Although retinal patterns may be altered in cases of diabetes, glaucoma or retinal degenerative disorders, the retina typically remains unchanged from birth until death. Due to its unique and unchanging nature, the retina appears to be the most precise and reliable biometric.^[1] Advocates of retinal scanning have concluded that it is so accurate that its error rate is estimated to be only one in a million.

A biometric identifier known as a retinal scan is used to map the unique patterns of a person's retina. The blood vessels within the retina absorb light more readily than the surrounding tissue and are easily identified with appropriate lighting. A retinal scan is performed by casting an unperceived beam of low-energy infrared light into a person’s eye as they look through the scanner's eyepiece. This beam of light traces a standarized path on the retina. Because retinal blood vessels are more absorbent of this light than the rest of the eye, the amount of reflection varies during the scan. The pattern of variations is converted to computer code and stored in a database.^[2]

 History

The idea for retinal identification was first conceived by Dr. Carleton Simon and Dr. Isodore Goldstein and was published in the New York State Journal of Medicine in 1935.^[3] The idea was a little before its time, but once technology caught up, the concept for a retinal scanning device emerged in 1975. In 1976, Robert "Buzz" Hill formed a corporation named EyeDentify, Inc., and made a full-time effort to research and develop such a device. In 1978, specific means for a retinal scanner was patented, followed by a commercial model in 1981.^[4]                                           

Retinal scanners are typically used for authentication and identification purposes. Retinal scanning has been utilized by several government agencies including the FBI, CIA, and NASA. However, in recent years, retinal scanning has become more commercially popular. Retinal scanning has been used in prisons, for ATM identity verification and the prevention of welfare fraud.^[5]

Retinal scanning also has medical application. Communicable illnesses such as AIDS, syphilis, malaria, chicken pox and Lyme disease as well as hereditary diseases like leukemia, lymphoma, and sickle cell anemia impact the eyes. Pregnancy also affects the eyes. Likewise, indications of chronic health conditions such as congestive heart failure, atherosclerosis, and cholesterol issues first appear in the eyes.^[6]

 Pros and Cons

Advantages^[4]

Disadvantages^[4][7]

• Measurement accuracy can be affected by a disease such as cataracts
• Measurement accuracy can also be affected by severe astigmatism
• Scanning procedure is perceived by some as invasive
• Not very user friendly
• Subject being scanned must be close to the camera optics
• High equipment cost.

In my opnion a retina scan is a great way to find someones identity for reasons such as security and is used for scientists in order to find out who is in the lab at anytime.
