Technology and Life

Since ages, human being has carried out explorations or expeditions to know whether life exists in some form or not in the other planets or galaxies. “Life on Mars” has been the hot topic of discussion/fascination among the scientists all over the world. Recently scientists have discovered evidences of water gushing swiftly on Mars, thereby boosting the chances that this planet might still be containing life.

The combination of low temperatures and thin atmosphere makes it probable for life to be present on Mars. Researchers have found out that ancient lakes once scattered the Martian landscape, and vast quantities of water ice were locked up in permafrost at the frigid poles of this planet. Mars has seasons quite similar to that of Earth and it has been found out that the seasons on Mars are affected by the distance from the sun.

The evidence of life on Mars has been further justified by the fact that many bacteria’s have been found to thrive in the atmosphere of Mars. Gillevinia straata is a micro-organism known to exist on Mars, according to the data collected by two Mars Viking landers who searched for signatures of life, but the analytical results were, officially, inconclusive. According to the theory, predicted by Mario Crocco, a neurobiologist, Gillevinia straata cannot be considered as a micro-organism but as a member of the kingdom “Jakobia” in the biosphere. So, the possibility of existence of life on Mars was ruled out!

The deposition of meteorites on the surface of Mars has also been considered as the proof of existence of life on earth. NASA maintains a record of 57 Mars meteorites and studies have shown that at least three of them exhibit the evidence of the possible existence of life on Mars. Although, nothing specific can still be said about these findings/researches. NASA is planning to launch the Astrobiology Field Laboratory in 2016, to help answer questions about life on Mars.

The Pathfinder mission that touched down Aes Vallis region of Mars in July 1997 took numerous pictures of the landing area and collected various rock samples. The pictures that depicted various regions (also known as Superpan) were matched positive for chlorophyll signature. Moreover, two regions of the pictures even showed a chlorophyll signature found in the soil near Pathfinder. So, all these evidences indicate that life can be present on Mars.

Although nothing specific can be said about life on Mars but researches are still being carried out in a hope to get some clue about the presence of life on Mars. Till then, we can certainly hope for the best!!

You must have come across the term kidney stone. I really feel that this is one of the problem which majority of the people faces during there life. The kidney stone are generally the calcium stone or the uric acids and this happens because of the fact that the kidney finds itself unable to dissolve these wastes naturally and hence they starts forming the layers on the walls of the kidney and soon they form the stone.

However all such patients should thank the panel of doctors who have been responsible for developing new technologies to dissolve the stone inside the kidney and meanwhile also decreasing the pain being felt by the patient? This was really a dream for most of the doctors in the past and now after such a long time this dream has been changed into reality by some of the new generation doctors.

There are so many types of technologies today which are available and you can select any one for yourself. I would like to list some of the technologies in this article. They are as follows:

1. Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy
In this technology the highly intense impulses are subjected over the kidney and this dissolves the stone by melting it down. Thus it makes the way for the urine to pass smoothly through the kidney. There are many kinds of lithotripsy apart from this. Some of them are ultrasonic lithotripsy and electro hydraulic lithotripsy. These are two type of lithotripsy. In the first type of the lithotripsy the kidney stone are being dissolved and melted with the help of shock waves while the patient is fainted.

In the second type of lithotripsy the stone is being cleaned up with the help of the flexible probe. In both the type of the lithotripsy the pain is minimal.

2. PCN
This is another kind of technology. The full form of this technology is Percutaneous Nephrostolithotomy. This is a kind of surgery and the process is carried out by direct contact with the stone inside the kidney. The surgeon uses guide wire and a needle for this purpose. The main drawback of this technology is that the patient is to be hospitalized. You will have to remain in the hospital for at least two weeks. This is why the people do not prefer this surgery. However the cost of this surgery is low and hence the people who cannot afford the cost of the above technologies go for this technology.

The stone in the kidney causes lots of problem and there is the pain all the way from the lower back to the groin. Hence it makes the patients really uncomfortable. However you can go for any type of surgery as discussed above if you are suffering from kidney stone.

The water fuel cell is the perpetual motion machine which uses the water as a fuel. It was being invented by fellow American Stanley Allen Meyer. He then claimed that the automobile retrofitted with the device will only require water as a fuel. He challenged that such automobiles while moving from Los Angeles would require only 83 liters of water. The fuel cell actually breaks water again into hydrogen and oxygen. The hydrogen released is used us the fuel which is burnt to produce energy and hence move the automobile.

Stanley challenged that the device uses less energy for electrolysis as compared to that required by the conventional science. However his work and his water fuel cell was found fraudulent in the court of Ohio in the year 1996. According to what was said by the Meyer, the first and the second laws of thermodynamics were found to be violated.

Meyer used the term fuel cell or the water fuel cell for the portion of the device where electricity was being provided to convert the water again into hydrogen and oxygen. You must know that the term fuel cell is reserved for the cells which produce electricity through red ox reaction. However as far as the Meyers fuel cell was concerned it used electricity rather than producing.

In fact the Meyers fuel cell technology proved to be fraudulent in many ways. In the following year Stanley presented a dune buggy which used to use water as a fuel. He again challenged that this automobile would only require 83 liters of water to move from Los Angeles to New York. This was really a surprise invention. All of the people were quiet happy but Stanley never succeeded in his mission.

According to him the water fuel cell would split the water into the hydrogen and oxygen which would then be combusted into the internal combustion engine to produce lots of energy.

In the year 1996 Stanley sold the rights of doing the business to two business man who gave a good sum of money to him. It was decided that the water fuel cell of the Meyer will be examined by an expert from London. However Meyer made a lame excuse on that day and the examination do not took place. This was really a sad incident because all of the people were quiet eager to know about his work.

However Meyer never won in proving is work right and all of his work was being proved wrong. One of the courts also asked him to pay back $25000 to the two investors who have investing in his work. And all his work went in vain. A year later he died.

I do remember the day when we used to carry the big mobile phones which look like bricks with a long antenna. Now if we think of those days then we can only laugh. As the time passed by technology went on increasing. We were able to see some great technology which really revolutionized every field. I do feel that the technology too had some great impact on the mobile world as well. We now talk about I-phone but we should not forget the days when we felt mesmerized by just getting the chance to talk to some body who was sitting far of with these handsets.

As the time passed by the mobile set kept on changing. Firstly the mobile set started to get shorter. Then the antenna was removed. We felt that the mobile phone should last long after every time we charge them. Soon we found this even to be implemented. We thought that we were in the modern age of technology. But soon somebody made it the fashion.

Almost every night the color of the mobile phone started changing. So was the set and we all are used to using a new handset almost every new month. I still remember when the internet was first being thought to be implemented in the mobile phone. The battery life was found to be the biggest threat and the efforts were made to really remove this draw back as well. And in fact this problem has also been removed now. The black berry internet mobile phones are now lasting for longer time if they are once charged.

However we have really traveled a long way before inventing the I-phone. Can you remember the day when even SMS was a great thing for us? The short messaging service which was very costly now comes free with some great packages implemented by some of the mobile companies. When the music and the movie player were first aired then we all were really eager to get one, mobile with these facilities. But these facilities can really not be so implemented with the gadgets. It really gave a pleasant feeling.

However from the past one year not more new technologies are being aired. I do feel that it really seems as if we have gone out of ideas. I have a reason behind this. You can take the example of handset which you used a year ago. I do feel that you will definitely find it to be lot tougher to find any difference between the present mobile and that mobile. This really gives us only one idea and that is we all have really gone out of ideas.

Are you training a new staff? Or are you trying to change your IT support? This could really mean risk for your business. You can ask your self why? You will have to understand that there are so many things related to each department that are being shared with the IT support. Hence changing them can be full of risk. Years of experience in service and lots of hard work really illustrates the internet technologies running smoothly.

I would now like to list some of the points which you must consider before making any final decision to bring about a change in the IT support. They are as follows:

1. You should understand what you currently have
You should begin with the inventory of the software and hardware. It would be better if you are able to persuade your current internet technology person to do some documentation with you which will include the network devices as well as the operating system and the application software.

2. Know who’s who
You should have the updated list of business relationship which is functioning well as well as the vendors. Navigating the new changes on IT network is a very tedious and full of surprises. You should properly note down that who are the service providers of the internet, phone, data services, website and email hosting company. You should keep the current service agreement documents updated. You will definitely need to make a thorough knowledge of the service providers and the service which they provide. You should also check the responses of the customer service call. This kind of information is really very important.

3. Back up
This is really one of the important things to make note of. There can be number of questions. For example how are we backed up? How and when do we update it? Which software we use for this? On which hardware do we keep our back up? Who does the verification of the back up?

4. Password
The one thing which is really very important is the password. You really need to know that which person is the in charge of the entire password. You should also know that which password is being accessed by whom and what he really access. While changing the IT support you will have to understand that you will have to change the password again and again.

5. Documents and Disk
It is really very important to make a list of software and hardware being used. You should really have the details of all the licenses. If you will not have the list then more often then not you will end up paying lots of fine.

Apart from all this you will also have to look at some other factors like scheduled maintenance and the security. Then only you can decide to change the IT support.
