install windows on USB and carry in pocket

I am going to explain how to install Windows on a pen drive/usb..
this a very useful hack..u can carry and work in your customized window wherever u go..

Requirements to install Windows on USB:

# An USB flash drive with a minimum of 6 GB disk space to install Windows 7 or Vista. You can use a 4 GB drive to install XP.

# Bootable Windows 7 USB or DVD.

# Free time

So let’s begin with the installing Windows 7 on USB procedure:

1. First of all, connect your USB to the machine and backup all the data from the USB drive.

2. Download VirtualBox portable, double-click on the executable file and extract the contents to your USB.

3. Now, go to the VirtualBox portable folder in USB, and execute the Portable-VirtualBox (.exe) file.

4. From here onwards, you need to follow the onscreen procedure to create a virtual disk and install Windows 7 on USB. Follow the install Windows 7 on VirtualBox guide to complete the process.

5. Once you finish the installation process, you can safely close VirtualBox and remove your USB drive.

6. You can now use this Windows 7 USB drive on any Windows machine that you want. To use Windows 7 on other machine, connect the Windows 7 USB, open USB drive, and run portable-VirtualBox file.

The Self-Balancing Electric Motorcycle

Designed to withstand the brute force of an impact with an SUV (sport utility vehicle), the C-1 is the world's first two-wheeler stabilised by electronically-controlled gyroscopes that create over 1,000 pounds of torque. That, combined with a set of flywheels, help keep the vehicle upright in challenging conditions including rain,snow, traffic and collisions. "We developed our own stability algorithm that basically keeps you safe and makes motorcycles accessible to anyone," Mr Kim told the BBC. "All you have to know is how to drive a car."."Seventy percent of people drive alone," he added, "So, we cut the car in half."

 Today's C-1 full-scale prototype resembles a standard motorbike but with an aerodynamic hood that fully encases the driver.

    "The future of transportation" is how Danny Kim and his engineering team at Lit Motors describe their first-of-its-kind vehicle.



The current version automatically tips 15 degrees without the driver having to lean or tilt sideways. Future versions should automatically tilt up to 45 degrees, noted Mr Kim, who is Lit Motors' founder, president and chief technology officer.  The C-1 may be a cleaner version of its dirty petrol-guzzling cousins but it moves much the same: going from zero to 60mph (96.6km/h) in six seconds, and topping out at 120mph (193.1km/h). 


It can drive up to 200 miles (321km) on a single charge using a standard electrical outlet, and costs less than a dollar to fully charge it. Safety features include air bags, seat belts, a roll cage, and steel reinforced doors.
     
A mass-market version is expected to arrive in 2014 and sell for $24,000 (£14,792) - or $19,000 after the federal EV (electric vehicle) tax credits kick in, Mr Kim told the BBC.

                                              The C-1 is designed to stay upright even if it is hit by another vehicle.

Google birthday

New Delhi: On September 27, 2012 Google turns 14 and the search giant celebrates the occasion with a doodle on its home page. The animated doodle shows a chocolate cake with 14 candles on it and the Google logo etched on the cake. The cake then gets covered in Google colours and the 14 candles rearrange themselves as tally marks to denote the number 14.

Interestingly, the selection of September 27 as Google's birthday seems to be a one of convenience than the actual date when the company was founded.

Google celebrated September 7 (the day when the company was incorporated) as its birthday till 2005. In 2005 Google changed the date to September 27 to make it coincide with the announcement of the record number of pages that the search engine was indexing.

It's has been 14 years since 1998 when two Stanford university students, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, got together to form a company that would change the face of the Internet, for ever.

In 2011, when Google turned 13, Google doodled for itself a photograph that showed Google's 13th birthday celebrations. It had a cake on a table with 13 candles on it, and Google logo sat around the table in party hats while gifts and baloons added to the celebratory mood.......!!

Upcoming Space Station Cameras Will Give All Humans Live Imagery Of Their Houses From Space

With UrtheCast cameras, you'll be able to see Google Earth-level detail -- but live.

International Space Station Above Earth NASA

 

An ambitious effort to broadcast real-time streaming video of Earth from space is closer to reality, after a new influx of cash and some new partnerships. By spring 2013, everyone on Earth will be able to watch the planet from the most unique vantage point ever built, the International Space Station.
UrtheCast (pronounced Earth-cast) ,the first cameras were supposed to launch in 2012. But the company has been raising money and working on its two high-definition cameras, while cosmonauts are in training to move the cameras from the cargo ferry to the station’s underside. The cameras are due to be finished in the next few months, according to the BBC. Meanwhile, the company, which is based in Calgary, said it plans to go public later this fall.

One camera will be fixed and the other will swivel around, according to Ian Tosh, an engineer at camera-builder RAL Space near Oxford, England. He told the BBC the images would be about a meter (3.3 feet) per pixel. That’s about the same as Google Earth’s satellite images of your house, where you can definitely see features like your car in the driveway. “You won’t quite see the tiles, but you’ll see all the detail in the garden,” Tosh told the BBC. Except that it’ll be live. Users anywhere in the world will be able to log in to a free site and see real-time (or maybe a very short delay) video. It’s easy to find out where and when the ISS will fly over your area, so UrtheCast aims to help people plan events around ISS coverage. You could get wedding pictures from space!
The ISS already has cameras, but they’re used for specific purposes, like monitoring crops. With UrtheCast, anyone can see anything he or she wants. The company plans to release its code and allow developers to build apps that use its video for a variety of purposes. Already, the United Nations wants to use it to monitor humanitarian emergencies. You could have an app that monitors crop growth, urbanization, pollution in cities, light distribution, and so on. Imagine the game possibilities, too! You can read more about UrtheCast here.

SOURCE OF INFINITE ENERGY: CASIMIR EFFECT

What is the Casimir effect?

Northeastern University experimental particle physicists Stephen Reucroft and John Swain put their heads together to write the following answer.  To understand the Casimir Effect, one first has to understand something about a vacuum in space as it is viewed in quantum field theory. Far from being empty, modern physics assumes that a vacuum is full of fluctuating electromagnetic waves that can never be completely
eliminated, like an ocean with waves that are always present and can never be stopped. These waves come in all possible wavelengths, and their presence implies that empty space contains a certain amount of energy--an energy that we can't tap, but that is always there. Now, if mirrors are placed facing each other in a vacuum, some of  the waves will fit between them, bouncing back and forth, while others will not. As the two mirrors move closer to each other, the longer waves will no longer fit--the result being that the total amount of energy in the vacuum between the plates will be a bit less than the amount elsewhere in the vacuum. Thus, the mirrors will attract each other, just as two objects held together by a stretched spring will move together as the energy stored in the spring decreases. This effect, that two mirrors in a vacuum will be attracted to each other, is the Casimir Effect. It was first predicted in 1948 by Dutch physicist Hendrick Casimir. Steve K. Lamoreaux, now at Los Alamos National Laboratory, initially measured the tiny force in 1996. It is generally true that the amount of energy in a piece of vacuum can be altered by material around it, and the term "Casimir Effect" is also used in this broader context. If the mirrors move rapidly, some of the vacuum waves can become real waves. Julian Schwinger and many others have suggested that this "dynamical Casimir effect" may be responsible for the mysterious phenomenon known as
sonoluminescence.
                    


One of the most interesting aspects of vacuum energy (with or without mirrors) is that, calculated in quantum field theory, it is infinite! To some, this finding implies that the vacuum of space could be an enormous source of energy--called "zero point energy." But the finding also raises a physical problem: there's nothing to stop arbitrarily small waves from fitting between two mirrors, and there is an infinite number of these wavelengths. The mathematical solution is to temporarily do the calculation for a finite number of waves for two different separations of the mirrors, find the associated difference in vacuum energies and then argue that the difference remains finite as one allows the number of wavelengths to go to infinity. Although this trick works, and gives answers in agreement with experiment, the problem of an infinite vacuum energy is a serious one. Einstein's theory of gravitation implies that this energy must produce an infinite gravitational curvature of spacetime--something we most definitely do not observe. The resolution of this problem is still an open research question.

           

GET READY FOR 3-D PRINTED MEDIA

First 3-D Printing Store Opens In U.S.

MakerBot will open a 3-D printing shop on Sept. 20 in New York City. Inside, a new breed of machines prints out designs from the web. The hope: to make the hobby mainstream.

Outside the MakerBot Store Clay Dillow

The 3-D printing world just took another big leap into the consumer market. Next stop: world domination?
MakerBot, the unofficial leader of the hobbyist 3-D printing movement, is putting the finishing touches on a consumer store located in the posh Manhattan neighborhood of NoHo.
Sure, the rare 3-D printer can be found in the corners of business service centers across the United States. But MakerBot claims their location at 298 Mulberry Street is the first one in the country dedicated to selling 3-D printers, supplies for the machines, and bespoke objects printed on-location.
If the new business proves successful, 3-D printing stands to expand from a relatively high-cost hobbyist venture into a mainstream consumer market.
"This is the first retail 3-D printing store" in the United States, said spokesperson Jenny Lawton from inside the shop. "We haven't combed the world over, but we're pretty sure it's the first ... of its kind."
On the heels of today's announcement the company also unveiled a 3-D printer called Replicator 2. The device is about the size of a cooler and can build objects three times more finely than MakerBot's previous desktop 3-D printer. It can also print more than a third larger, or about size of a big loaf of bread.
"It sets the standard in desktop 3-D printing," said MakerBot CEO Bre Pettis during a press briefing. "[Printed objects] won't feel rough like hobbyist 3-D printers' of the past."
