The new Bumblebee of Transformers 4!!



Transformers fans have been treated to several new looks at the redesigned elements of Michael Bay’s upcoming Transformers 4, mainly thanks to the director’s official Web site and the images he’s courteous enough to share as he tries to get his fanbase revved up for the next installment in the ongoing franchise. Earlier this week, we received images of the Autobots (in automobile form), as well as a shot of the new Optimus Prime, with his trademark flame decals in place. This morning, Bay drops the newest pic of Bumblebee on his official web site. We’ve shared it with you above.

Bay explains that the new Bumblebee will be a “highly modified, vintage 1967 Camaro SS.” Take that, Fast and Furious! You’re not the only high-octane franchise with an unhealthy interest in muscle cars! I can’t tell if it’s the shadowing in the abvove image or a deliberate modification of the paint scheme, but I like the black/grey tones showing up on the body and hood of this Bumblebee. I can’t wait to see how that is incorporated into the transformed robot structure of the spunky Autobot hero.

Here’s the thing about Bay’s Transformers movies: The robots were never really the problem. When you heard die-hard fans griping about Bay’s “modifications” to the franchise they grew up on, it also centered around the human actors or Bay’s immature bathroom humor. Still, it’s very cool that the director and his team is taking a fresh pass to the four-wheeled heroes. It backs up his claims that this will be a totally new vision for the series.

The review of best game ever.. FEZ!


FEZ went last year for Xbox 360 and wondered players. The criticism was unanimous praise FEZ and its creator marked by the presence in the documentary Indie Game The Movie, which showed its troubled development process. Years passed but hype FEZ remained relatively large and after their period of glory in the Xbox now comes to the PC.




FEZ is an indie game of Polytron Corporation. It is a platform game with puzzles usual but without any emphasis on fighting. No alias any violence in the game, with those who compare the experience of playing FEZ with a relaxing stroll in a fantasy world, however I do not share this idea because FEZ made me pull the head, something that did no walk today. 




Despite its great quality and good reception FEZ suffered some problems in Xbox game that marked the negative and the delay of a patch due to the amounts requested by Microsoft were a hot topic for a while. These problems have been left behind in this new version or beyond the quality you receive the PC version with the same problems?

Good Luck!

The computers will be the lords of the future!


It is undeniable that computer technology has advanced in recent years. Evolved so much that some researchers estimate that computers can even "take over the world", becoming more intelligent than all humanity. And they set up a year ago that this can occur: 2045.

Imagine a computer that can write a great book, solve the mysteries of the universe and unravel the meaning of life in a few seconds. Fiction? We do not know. Fifteen years ago, the Deep Blue (IBM supercomputer) beat Garry Kasparov, the chess master. It is true that the game has a purely mathematical logic, something best worked by machines than by humans.

Then in 2011, Watson (another IBM supercomputer) won the 2 best human players in Jeopardy, a game of questions and answers. Questions like "What is that object, even when broken, is correct two times a day?" Are easily solved by supercomputer. Remember that the answer was not programmed by humans in the machine, nor was it connected to the Internet during the game. The only thing Watson does is collect data from millions of sources like websites and books. Even so, his intelligence is still much lower than that of humans.

However, that should change soon. According to the researcher in artificial intelligence and founder of Singularity University, Ray Kurzweil, from the year 2045 run serious risks facing a technological singularity, at which the machines will be able to play new machines increasingly powerful in a process infinite, without the need for elaborate algorithms by humans.

Although this is only a hypothesis, Kurzweil points out that we are building computers increasingly similar to our brain, which can be divided into two fundamental qualities.

The first is the processing capacity. Scientists estimate that our brain is capable of performing 36.8 quadrillion operations per second, the equivalent of 1 million computers running simultaneously. The supercomputer is currently the most potent Sequoia, also of IBM able to rotate almost half the capacity of the human brain. Still, he is not able to do even one tenth of the things we do. Why?

Here comes the plasticity, the second basic quality of the human mind. As the human brain evolved, several of its regions assume different responsibilities, such as language and control of the body parts. Our gray matter is able to adapt as it is used - as if it were designed to always learn new things. And plasticity which allows a person to become a great pianist, for example.

The most potent currently supercomputers operate similarly, i.e., they are capable of learning new things. And as the plasticity of computer chips develops, there is a possibility day they become as complex as our brain. And this should happen in 2029, according to calculations by Kurzweil. The technological singularity would begin only in 2045, when a machine will gain a greater intelligence than all mankind.

Although this computer is capable of running multiple human tasks, like writing a book or even unify quantum mechanics with Einstein's relativity (made that seems impossible to be performed by a human) in a short time, it can become equally dangerous. We would be creating an extremely advanced form of life with which we can share our ethical and moral values? Kurzweil thinks so. So much so that in 2008 he founded the Singularity University in Silicon Valley (USA), a university that offers graduate courses whose objectives are to train people who can guide the development of artificial intelligence, so that the computers have "common sense" not to kill us and take over the world.

Well, friends, if you guys were leading the world these days and the front of both power and danger, what would you do?

Android 4.3 leaks!




Google was rumored to debut a new version of Android earlier this month at its I/O Developers Conference. The event has come and gone, however, without a single mention of the operating system. Recent reports suggest that an update will be available in the coming months with support for a more power efficient Bluetooth standard, but little is known about the update. 

A forum member on XDA-Developers recently posted images of a Nexus 4 that appears to be running a test build of Android 4.3. The images reveal the new version will retain the “Jelly Bean” name, similar to Android 4.2, and will be only a minor update consisting of small changes and bug fixes. One change appears to be a slight cosmetic update to the Android camera software with the controls being relocated from the center to the side. A second image follows below.

When help comes...

By a friend..

"Last Monday afternoon, while preparing a shipment of tetanus vaccine for a town recently struck by a tornado, I received the first hair-raising alert about a massive tornado that had just leveled a suburb of Oklahoma City.

Having responded to many emergencies for AmeriCares, a global health and emergency response group providing humanitarian aid to 164 countries since 1982, I knew right away what this would mean for potentially thousands of families and individuals in the tornado’s path. There was no question that our disaster team would respond—and we knew it was vital to respond quickly. Experience says that when an EF5 tornado hits a metropolitan area, local clinics and shelters need emergency medical and relief supplies. Fast.
There is a terrible, familiar pattern to natural disasters and other emergencies, and the script is eerily similar for a massive tornado, an earthquake or a massive fire. Information is key in the early hours. That’s why we immediately started calling our partners in Oklahoma to learn which clinics and health centers had been damaged and which were still operating and able to help survivors. We began to plan our first deliveries of medicine, water and first aid supplies. We made calls through the night until it was time to leave for our 6:00 a.m. flight from LaGuardia to Tulsa, Oklahoma. I didn’t even try to book a flight into Oklahoma City—residents who are displaced need resources like rental cars, so we don’t want to use those.
After driving from Tulsa for over an hour, traffic on the highway suddenly came to a stop. Destruction lined both sides of the road. I’ve never seen anything like it. When you see devastation, you forget you’ve been up all night; any fatigue just evaporates. The side roads were gridlocked, too: At 2:30 p.m. on Tuesday, residents were not yet allowed into the area and police were stopping every car. The police waved us through as first responders who had come to help.
The first step: calling and meeting with local partners to understand their immediate needs. We learned that in addition to Moore Medical Center (the city’s hospital and clinic), numerous health-care facilities had sustained serious damage. And, of course, as many as 13,000 homes had been damaged or leveled, leaving many residents with nothing.
Next, talking to the Red Cross and local partners. We asked how many people were coming to shelters and what local stocks of vaccines and medicines were available. We emailed our office and ordered shipments of personal care kits, bottled water, and vaccine and diabetes medicine for health providers. Some items would come from our Stamford, Connecticut warehouse, where we have stockpiles of the most essential materials in readiness for any large-scale emergency; others would ship directly from regional warehouses. We moved quickly so that the critical relief supplies would arrive as soon as the next day.
On Wednesday we met with one health partner that needed cardiovascular and respiratory medicines for survivors who had lost theirs in the storm. But what formulation—tabs or liquid? What doses? What does the health partner prefer and what can they accept? While speed is important, precision is key: What we send—whether it’s hygiene kits or diabetes medicine—must be useful.
Three days into our response, we are already beginning to develop a medium- and long-range recovery plan for helping to restore health services in the coming weeks. We’ll meet with staff from the Moore Medical Center to learn what they need to begin serving their community as quickly as possible. They may require ongoing shipments of medicines or help building a temporary health clinic. Three weeks from now, our plan should be fully operational, while we continue to keep our eyes open for gaps in services. From our ongoing work in response to Hurricane Sandy, we know that there will be a need for mental health services in the months to come, so we will identify who in the community is best situated to provide that care.
Even as our focus remains on providing assistance quickly and effectively, you can’t help but be affected by the total destruction everywhere you look. On Tuesday, I was waiting in Moore to be interviewed on camera for a national news program. Standing in the mud, trying not to trip on wires and debris, I began listening to the reporter and realized he was talking to a man whose 9-year-old daughter had died at the Plaza Towers Elementary School. The reporter choked up and I was stunned. I barely recovered before I went live on the air.
For survivors, access to quality medicines and health care can change a life. So we will keep working around the clock to ensure that our disaster relief reaches the people who need it now. And we will be there to help them as they begin to rebuild their lives. This is what keeps us going and motivates us to prepare for the next disaster in the United States—or anywhere else in the world."

The new Google Maps!


According to Bernhard Seefeld, product management director at Google Maps, "this is the most significant overhaul of Maps since it launched in 2005." We sat down with both Seefeld as well as Jonah Jones -- lead designer of Google Maps -- following a marathon keynote to kick off Google I/O. Their slice of the event centered around the desktop refresh of Google Maps, but there's actually a lot more to be excited about than what was announced today. Essentially, the preview that I/O attendees were granted access to is the first instance of Maps for desktop using vectors instead of tiles. In lay terms, that's a far sexier rendering engine, and users of the mobile Maps products will already be familiar  with how it feels. Seefeld affirmed that the new desktop Maps is slightly quicker to load, but you'll want a WebGL-supporting browser to take advantage of the bells and whistles. (In our tests, the Maps experience was far superior in Chrome compared to Firefox.)
We toyed around with the new layout for a bit, and overall, it looks and feels better. Refreshing, you could say. The search box is now entirely more useful, popping up intelligent cards beneath places you search for. You'll have glanceable access to operating hours, surrounding traffic and recommended places -- that's not new, it's just surfaced in a more sensible way now. There's also dedicated shortcuts to directions and starring. Visually, it looks a lot nicer, the zooms are a little cleaner, and the search box is a tad more useful. Street View is accessed via the search box now, and there's a toggle on the right side that overlays Google Earth data and (impressively) shows it from varying degrees of tilt. The magic really begins after you sign in with your Google account. If you've starred or rated a restaurant using Google Maps or Google+, for example, it'll automatically populate recommended eateries that your friends have rated highly. If, of course, your friends are using Google+.
The real rub here is that most of the new features in Maps rely on data fed in by Google+. It's actually a fairly depressing trend; Google's core services are becoming less and less spectacular for those who have no interest in joining yet another social network. We asked Seefeld and Jones if Google had plans to integrate recommendation data from Foursquare, Facebook or any other third-party service. "We aren't actively avoiding those," Seefeld said. The reality is that Google+ data was the most easily accessible as the new Maps were being built, so that's why the integration is so tight. Without saying as much, he gave the impression that future iterations will indeed inhale data from even more services -- including rivals -- to make the overall experience more useful.
We also asked whether or not stars would ever become fileable. In other words, stars on Maps today are all the same. You can't file a certain segment of stars into a "North Carolina Museums" folder, or perhaps a "Moorea Vacation Spots" folder. There's no current way to assign stars to certain events or interests. According to Jones, that's something that could change in the future. That's actually one of the complaints that Google has been hearing for some time now from power users, and considering just how well labels work in Gmail, it's obvious that the company could cook up a similar filing system for Maps.
Moreover, Seefeld confirmed that the Maps team is looking into more intelligent responses to inquiries. For instance, searching for "us national parks" in Google Maps leads to a bunch of useless results today. But in an ideal world, you'd see a zoomed-out view of the United States, with each National Park highlighted and clickable. While not in this iteration of Maps, it's something that's very clearly in the pipeline.
In closing, both gentlemen assured me that the new edition of Maps would be coming to Google's respective mobile products in due time. It's using the desktop as a test bed for now, and once it's satisfied there, Android and iOS updates should follow in short order. For now, you can visit this link to request an invite for access to the Maps for desktop preview. Non-I/O attendees should see access granted in waves starting as early as tomorrow.
