Even just ten to twenty years ago, transplanting organs was a difficult and risky process. In many cases, recipients of donated organs were required to take medicines for the rest of their lives in order to avoid rejection of the transplanted organs, and successful implantation of the organs was never a sure thing. These days, however, technology is quickly erasing the barricades between using donor organs and having an optimal result in patients who need them. One of the most beneficial tools in organ donation, transportation and transplantation is now saving the lives of those who might have died otherwise.

The Organ Care System

Developed as a revolutionary solution to an age-old problem, the Organ Care System functions by delivering vital nutrients, such as oxygen and blood, to organs in a self-contained fashion. Held inside a portable box, the Organ Care System can be used to keep vital organs healthy and functional while en route to the destination where they will be transplanted. Most notably, this device was used recently to perform a living lung transplant, something that was previously thought to be out of reach of most people in need of transplants. But how exactly does this device work and what does it entail?

The Process

The Organ Care System is used whenever vital organs – such as lungs or hearts – are needed in ideal conditions. The organs can be immediately removed from a donor and placed into the system, whereupon they will be “hardwired” in and fed oxygen, blood and other nutrients necessary to keep them in prime condition. While this process is ongoing, the organs can be safely transported from the site of harvesting to the site where the transplant will be performed. With so many individuals dying every year due to the lack of availability of live organs that are very difficult to maintain, the Organ Care System is a great leap forward in providing this medical procedure to those who need it most.

Repairing Less Than Ideal Organs

One of the most interesting elements of the system is that it can be used to take organs that are less than perfect – and would otherwise be ruled out in a transplant operation – and repair them in a relatively short period of time. While it cannot salvage any and all organs, the Organ Care System does have the ability to clean and rejuvenate lungs that have undergone some form of deterioration. This is excellent news, considering that over 80% of lungs cannot be used for transplants due to their condition. After receiving the first living lung transplant as mentioned above, the individual in question was moving around after three days and was discharged from the hospital in under two weeks.

This state of the art solution to providing transplanted lungs and hearts to patients who would otherwise die without them is certainly going to revolutionize transplant care and procedures, making it possible for an array of organs that would otherwise be useless to be used in a multitude of organ transplant surgeries. With so many people waiting for transplants these days, the Organ Care System is providing doctors and clinics with the ability to thin out the waiting lists for these procedures.

Neel Harvey is a surgeon by profession. Like every other field, medical field too isn’t averse from the technological revolution. In his opinion, it has only helped to save the lives of people. Even a simple equipment like a salt inhaler could be considered as a milestone, according to him.

Any road trip can benefit from the added technology that is available these days! If you are buying a new car you can expect to get many bells and whistles as standard, or if you have a car already it is easy to get them fitted. With everyday life getting busier and busier many people are relying on gadgetry more and more to get them through the day. Don’t be scared of new technology – it is there to help you and it’s well worth reading up on what sort of help is available now. Gadgets are the future – keep up to date with the changes as they happen fast. Here are some cracking gadgets for your car that once you’ve got you won’t be able to live without!

Satnav GPS Systems

What a wonderful invention GPS is! No more getting lost, performing U-turns on busy roads and heading the wrong way down a one way street! Not many people drive without a satnav these days and it’s no wonder. They make driving so much easier and save you a lot of time too – stopping and looking at a map can add valuable minutes onto every journey. And not everybody has the skills for reading maps like they used to.

Parking Cameras And Sensors

Perfect for those with less than brilliant spatial awareness, parking cameras and sensors take all the stress out of parking. You’ll be alerted long before you come into contact with anything. Once you have one you’ll be so heavily reliant on it you’ll wonder how you parked without one!

Music to Your Ears

Car stereos have progressed a lot in recent years. Sound quality is much better and most modern stereos have an input for your personal stereo so you have access to as many tunes as you want without having to mess around changing CDs. Speakers are much better quality so whether it’s radio, music or spoken word you’re listening to, you’ll be able to get crystal clear sound quality that’s just as good as in any house.

Keyless Ignition

No more keys – that has to be a good thing right?! Simply press a button to get the car started – it’s the future of car travel. You can even get a remote keyless ignition so you can switch your engine on a while before you are due to leave in order to warm up the engine and heat up the car in cold conditions. Bliss!

Communications

We can’t stop for phone calls these days! Make sure you are able to answer calls whilst travelling by having a good quality hands-free kit fitted. You can also get a holder for your phone so you don’t have to handle it while you are driving, and now you can even get laptop holders – pull over and bingo – you have an instant office! It’s the future of working life and more and more people who travel for work are getting into their gadgets.

Gadgetry can be your friend – spend some time thinking about how little gadgets could make a big difference to your life!

There are a plethora of noises we hear on an everyday basis and no doubt some of these we’d love to block out. Obviously, there are many things you can do in and around the house to reduce noise pollution, but what do you do to deter a barking dog. No matter how much you love your family pet, we all know that sometimes the incessant sound of barking will not only drive you mad, but very likely the neighbours as well. This is where a gadget, such as the ultrasonic bark control, can come in very handy.

How Does the Ultrasonic Bark Control Work?

There are a number of deterrents that these devices use, but the most common is a tone that cannot be heard by humans, but is perfectly audible to your dog. Now this may sound a little inhumane (excuse the pun), however, the tone causes no harm to your pet whatsoever. The tone typically lasts for no longer than two seconds and is an ideal way to teach corrective behaviour.

Most units are battery operated and will come with complete instructions on how to set the unit up and how to use it. You will generally find that these devices also come with some type of warranty. Many units offer a choice of manual or automatic control and this may be the ideal way to deal with a neighbour’s dog without having to get into an argument. These devices usually work through a series of internal microphones and sensors. Once they pick up the sound of a dog barking they will send out a tone only audible to dogs.

Other Devices

A more recent design in the control of noise pollution from dogs is a Spray Bark Collar. Once such device will again use sensors to pick up on barking, but as the unit is attached to the dog as a collar it can deal with the problem in a more direct manner. This device will usually emit a lemon scented spray which is aimed directly at the dog’s snout, thus causing them to immediately correct their behaviour. Once again, this method of reducing sound is completely safe and will not harm your dog in any way.

These devices are usually available from most major pet stores, although you will typically be greeted with a far wider choice online. There are various websites that are dedicated to pet noise control, although many large pet-related websites are likely to stock these types of devices as well. In fact, noise pollution control has become such an acceptable thing in the modern day and age that even retail websites such as Amazon will stock a wide variety of these units. Depending on what type of device you are looking for you can easily purchase an ultrasonic bark control unit for around AUS$50. So, no matter how much you love them, if the bark of your dog does occasionally drive you mad, you could do worse than investing in one of these fantastic devices.

Possibly the best way to describe “branding” is how your potential customers perceive your company and your overall business. A business’s brand is a combination of various factors, but is often referred to in a company’s mission statement or their beliefs. One of the most powerful ways to get the message about your brand out there is through the use of social networks and social media.

Content is King

Anyone who has spent any amount of time online will probably have heard the phrase “content is king” and in this case it really is. There is only one way to let people know about you, your products or services and your business as a whole… and that is to tell them about it. You can also mix it up a little and provide content that isn’t strictly related to your products, maybe you can talk about the experiences past customers have had, or you could spend some time highlighting the important employees within your firm, or simply the industry in general, etc.

Networking

\

Social Media, especially platforms such as Facebook and Twitter allow you to interact with customers and potential clients. This is gold… and should be treated as such. People typically look to purchase something to solve a problem (although often purchases are made for pure luxury purposes). However, by spending some time on social networks you can come across as a more human and understanding company that really cares about its customer’s needs.

Regular Updates

Not only is this an opportunity to share updates with your customers about your business, but why not also share information about the industry as a whole. This way you can build up a fair following, as people will realise that you’re not merely there to sell to them, but also to educate and (once again) interact with them. You’ll be pleasantly surprised at how well people react to general information, as opposed to being sold to. It is also important that you do this on a regular basis so you are typically in the forefront of people’s minds.

Review Your Products

You can use various social networks to share information about your products. Perhaps a review of what a particular product does, who it can help, reasons to have it and the benefits it may bring. This will help people to further understand what your business and the brand stands for. You will also find that many sales (for any business) are made through personal recommendation, and often someone will read something via a social network and then share this information with a friend who is in dire need of a certain product or service.

Be as Transparent as Possible

Most people hate to be sold to and therefore many turn to the internet to make decisions about possible future purchases. This is where ignoring a sales pitch and talking about your brand and overall beliefs can help to lure new customers your way. People will respect honesty and will be far more likely to do business with a company if they know what they stand for.

Keeping an eye on potential criminals has always been the number one job of law enforcement agencies, with prevention being just as big of a goal as apprehension or conviction after the crime. In the past, this required a large police presence within a given jurisdiction, traversing city blocks time and time again in order to maintain a sense of protection and discourage would-be criminals. Today, however, technology is increasingly becoming more common in both the deterrence and apprehension of suspected criminals. Below, you will find several ways in which local law enforcement may already be monitoring your neighbourhood.

Domestic Drones

Once thought as something that only was deployed in war zones, domesticated drones are now popping up in the skies over cities and towns, with the primary benefactor of their use being local law enforcement. These unarmed alternatives to their cousins in combat still can provide many of the high-tech surveillance options that were once only available to the military. Local law enforcement’s primary use for these drones are to scout out dangerous situations beforehand and have a bird’s eye view of situations without having to call in a helicopter, which can be noisy and foil local authorities’ surveillance efforts to monitor quietly before deciding to take action.

Cameras

Closed circuit monitoring systems have been in use for many years in some countries, but the prevalence of their use is now beginning to be felt in smaller cities and communities. Local law enforcement agencies have much more evidence to work with in select crimes when there is an “eyewitness” at the scene, in the form of a camera. What is helping this effort further is the amount of technology that average citizens have in their pockets; when a bystander is able to capture a crime in commission on their mobile phone or device, this gives authorities even more evidence with which to work.

Fake Cell Phone Towers

In the United States, it was recently ruled that using physical GPS technology to track suspected criminals is not allowed, but this is not stopping authorities from finding more creative ways to handle the problem. Enter concepts like the Stingray, which functions as a cell phone tower and can intercept anywhere from hundreds to thousands of cell phones’ data and messages when in use. Authorities can then track any specific number and use that information to determine the current physical location of the criminal in question. These tactics have their critics, but are proving to be yet another way local authorities can intercept would-be felons.

Methods Incognito

If someone sees a drone or a closed circuit camera in the vicinity, then they are going to be less likely to commit a crime. Local law enforcement realises that being “camouflaged” can provide access to information and surveillance that otherwise would not happen. It is for this reason that authorities have been using objects such as construction equipment (cranes and lifts, for example) to serve as temporary towers for electronic surveillance, giving authorities cover against appearing too obvious in their monitoring.

Remember the film: ‘The Butterfly Effect’? The hypothesis underpinning the movie is that everything affects everything else in the world. So a butterfly flapping its wings in Chicago is responsible for a tsunami in the Indian Ocean. Of course you may think the whole idea is preposterous. After all, how on earth can a tiny little butterfly cause such devastation on the other side of the world?

The Birth of a Legend

Anyone familiar with the story of Facebook (and if you are not, make sure you watch the film: ‘The Social Network’) knows that Facebook was originally created as a way for the students of Harvard University in the US to share information and communicate online. The idea soon spread and by September of 2012, there were more than 1 billion registered users of the world’s largest social networking site.

Social Networks: A Gigantic Spider’s WebSo what is the connection between Facebook and the Butterfly Effect? Well think about it: Everyone on Facebook is loosely connected to everyone else. If you have a Facebook account, unless the only reason you created an account was to stalk your ex, you are likely to have at least some friends on there. Every friend you have is also likely to have other friends in their own circle, people you may not necessarily know. And if you follow this chain of logic, each of these people is also connected to a further circle of friends. Are you still with me?

The success of social networking websites such as Facebook can be attributed in part to how easy they make it to keep in touch. You can chat to family and friends on another continent and it feels as if they are in the next room. Sharing photographs and ‘liking’ each other’s posts is easy, which creates a sense of intimacy. Of course it could be argued that Facebook is a tool for bad deeds when the wrong person opens an account and uses it to make contact with people he or she wishes to harm.

Can Facebook Be Used to Conquer the World?The fact that Facebook is all pervasive in modern life is not necessarily a good thing. In days gone by, individuals looking to do bad things generally had little contact with other likeminded individuals and therefore their ability to do harm was somewhat restricted. Unfortunately things have changed and the advent of social networking sites such as Facebook has made it far easier for bad people to hunt out and find other bad people.

What attracts businesses to social networking sites such as Facebook is the power these sites have to spread a message across the globe within a very short space of time. Consider how long it takes for a few naughty photos of a celebrity caught with their pants down to go viral if you don’t believe me. So if you are a traffic lawyer working in a small town or a makeup artist that is at yet undiscovered and you want to increase your customer base, start utilising the power of social networking sites such as Facebook. It won’t be long before new customers are beating a path to your office door.

Everyone it seems wants to be stronger, fitter and slimmer. This is a universal desire that we all share and many of us believe that by attaining a more ‘idealised’ physique, we would find that life started to go the way we wanted it to more and things would move out of our way.

Of course being slimmer and more toned makes you generally more attractive to members of the opposite sex and right away this makes life easier for those of us in shape. At the same time though it also wins us respect from our peers, puts us in better health and make us better athletes who will win more competitions.

With this in mind then, it’s a wonder that not everyone is in incredible shape. So what is it that prevents the general population from getting beach bodies? What’s holding you back right now?

The answer for most of us is twofold: time, and money. Unfortunately working out requires trips to the gym which take time out of our day and require a lot of motivation and energy. When you’ve had a bad day at work, are just feeling sleepy, or it’s raining outside, travelling to the gym will often be the last thing that you want to do.

That’s where technology comes in, and it’s a demand that many technology manufacturers have aimed to meet. With various different devices and gadgets, is it possible to get yourself into amazing shape without having to put in any of the work? Read on and we’ll look at some of the devices that claim you can and whether or not they work…

Ab Belts

Ab belts offer the perfect dream – they sit on your stomach for half an hour or so and deliver electric shocks and claim that these contractions will be the equivalent of doing lots of sit ups. You can go about your daily routine while building abs under your t-shirt in theory then, but does it work?

Sadly the answer here is: not really. While electric shocks will indeed force your muscles to contract, the lack of weight bearing means you’re unlikely to cause any microtears which are required for growth. It categorically won’t cause you to lose weight either, and through your flesh those shocks aren’t going to generate very powerful contractions so overall it’s practically useless.

Vibro Pads

So instead of electric shocks, how about vibrations? Vibro pads are platforms that you stand on/do press ups on while being shaken incredibly quickly. The claim is that this forces you to engage your stabilising fast-twitch muscle fibres (they reckon that ‘one press up on a vibro pad is equal to a hundred normal ones’), but the problem is that this is once again nonsense. The vibrations here might be enough to slightly throw you off, but again they aren’t enough to cause any microtears and you’re more likely to get RSI than big guns.

Supplements

A technology that can help however is supplementation. Things like protein shakes and creatine can help you to build more muscle and run for longer, but again they have their limitations. As with any piece of training equipment, supplements are just tools to help you get more from your training – you still need to be willing to put the effort in yourself to begin with.

The golden rule is this: if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. If not, then everyone would look like Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Congratulations: you’ve passed your state’s bar exam and are ready to begin practicing law after many years of studying. The last thing you may want to hear upon completing these lofty tasks is that you will need to spend even more money on supplies, gadgets and office equipment – what a bummer! Nevertheless, any new lawyer should be ready to hit the ground running, and there are quite a few mobile devices and gadgets that any lawyer would want in his or her arsenal before representing any client or approaching a prospective firm. Below, we’ve outlined five of the best gadgets you’ll want to consider before making any first impressions.

Encrypted USB Drives

Being confidential and protective of clients’ identities is a pretty straightforward part of being a layer. You obviously want to make sure that any personal information does not fall into the wrong hands, and one of the best ways to ensure this is through the use of encrypted USB drives like the Aegis Secure Key. Not only can you access the data through a laptop or tablet anywhere on the go, but you can rest assured that in the event the information is lost, no one else will be able to fetch its contents.

Mini Projectors

Giving a presentation or disseminating information to a group can be a daily occurrence as a lawyer. You definitely are not going to want to lug around a traditional projector, which is both costly and susceptible to accidents. Instead, consider a pocket-sized projector such as the Telstar MP50, which can fit in the palm of your hand or snugly instead a briefcase. This device not only works with traditional computers, but also with mobile phones – leave both the old projector and laptop at home and convey information with convenience!

Tablets

Having a laptop used to be all the rage, but tablets are quickly gaining ground when it comes to being both cheaper and more functional. The most popular tablet currently on the market is of course the iPad, and in many law offices, you will find that the majority of your colleagues will most likely already have one. There’s very little that you cannot do with an iPad, so consider grabbing one of these instead of an ultrabook or laptop computer.

Pen Scanners

After going through dozens of pages of briefs and summaries of cases, you will feel exhausted and most likely, your hands will be cramped from making tons of notes. Instead of writing this down or typing it out on a tablet or smartphone, a pen scanner may be the best solution. Devices like the PenPower WorldPenScan can pick up to 15 centimeters of text per second – that’s an entire line of traditional print every 2 seconds.

Solar Chargers

With all of these cool gadgets handy, it never hurts to have a charging solution ready to go. With options like the PowerFilm USB+AA Foldable Solar Panel, you can quickly connect any USB device and give it a boost of energy when overuse leads to battery drain in between meetings. These sorts of chargers are very convenient and fit into the back of your pocket when fully retracted.

Learning a foreign language is a good investment for those who are willing to spend their time and energy in order to communicate more effectively. With the world become increasingly interconnected, it is almost a prerequisite that you speak at least one language outside your own native tongue in order to do business and make small talk with millions of other people from around the world. Fortunately, technology has made it increasingly easier to do so, and there are several great programs and tutorials out there available for those who want to learn. We will cover the best online and computer-based courses you can take to bring out your inner polyglot.

Rosetta Stone

Rosetta Stone is perhaps the most well-known foreign language software available anywhere – and for good reason. With comprehensive programs available in over 30 languages, Rosetta Stone has been used by large companies, governments and individuals alike, giving those who take the courses an intuitive approach to mastering a second (or third) language. With years of experience, Rosetta Stone has had the chance to refine their software and add methods that naturally develop the linguistic talents of those seeking to broaden their horizons. While the software is quite expensive, those who use it will almost definitely recommend it to others.

Altissia

Operating out of Belgium, Altissia offers language services for five of the world’s most popular business tongues: English, Spanish, French, German and Dutch. The program is heavily reliant upon mobility, using phone-based interaction, video conferencing and desktop lessons to fully engage students in all areas of a particular language. For those who wish for more hands-on instruction, there is also a campus in Belgium where traditional tutoring is available. With more than 25 years’ experience in offering these courses, Altissia is a highly respected foreign language tutor program and lessons start at around $25 per month.

Mango

Another awesome language service is Mango, which has developed itself to be a fully-functional mobile experience. In doing so, Mango has managed to keep costs low and even offers a free trial for those who are sceptical. With lessons beaming in via desktop, mobile phone and tablet, you can pick up where you left off no matter where you find yourself. With twelve different languages to choose from, you are sure to find at least one language that will help broaden your horizons in both business and personal communication. Mango works with individuals, businesses and government – they have a solution to fit the profile, no matter what your needs.

Livemocha

Different from the others, Livemocha is a platform that allows individuals to be both teachers and students, bringing together native speakers from all across the planet and allowing students to learn languages as they would if they were in those countries. The service boasts over 16 million users from every country in the world, making it one of the best crowd-sourced language learning opportunities available today. With both live classes and private tutoring sessions available, you can gain access to a plethora of organic language opportunities that few other foreign language classes can offer.

Recently Chief Judge Randall Radar of the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit opened a public program for the Association of University Technology Managers (AUTM) in San Antonio. Judge Radar condemned litigation abuse and said there’s a major issue with it. He termed the abuse “blackmail-like shake-down” and described it as giving the patent system a bad name. According to a Stanford study, the smartphone industry alone spent around $20 billion in the last two years in the pursuit of patent litigation.

Google recently responded to the negative press given to “patent trolling” on their public policy blog where they write, “We’ve been encouraged by recent proposals for legislation and other reforms aimed at addressing the growing harm that patent trolls are inflicting on U.S. consumers and small businesses.” They also recently launched a cooperative licensing website that is meant to offer an alternative to extensive court cases. So what is patent litigation and how have the heavy weights been abusing it?

Samsung versus Apple

A UK judge’s recent ruling reflects Judge Radar’s sentiment. Justice Floyd of Chancery Division of the High Court of England and Wales declared Samsung’s assertions against Apple invalid. All total, Samsung has failed to prevail on 25 standard-essential patent (SEP) assertions. It’s an ongoing war that appears to have no end. Bloomberg condemns the corporations involved and insists that the companies are abusing the court’s time and resources.

Motorola Versus Apple

Recent court cases between Google’s Motorola and Apple raised similar disputes. The two companies have been involved in patent disputes since 2010 and neither company has made much headway. They have had more than 180 patent-infringement claims on one another and they have had disagreements on more than 100 terms in the patents. The U.S. District Court Judge Robert Scola said that he believes Apple and Motorola “have no interest in efficiently and expeditiously resolving this dispute; they instead are using this and similar litigation worldwide as a business strategy that appears to have no end.” Google has responded to accusations like this with various solutions such as the License on Transfer Agreement where a transferred patent automatically gets licensed when it is transferred. But detractors suggest these are only superficial attempts to solve a problem that seems to have no end in sight.

Patents as a Weapon

Many writers have been making use of the metaphor of a war weapon when describing the ways in which corporations use patents. So why are so many tech companies turning to the patent as a weapon for competition? Some analysts chalk it up to the ubiquity of the smartphone and the pressure to compete. Patenting makes a company unique…in an aggressive way and the desire to patent has practically turned into a manic epidemic. Often companies are filing for a patent before they’ve even figured out how to fully implement the idea into the product. New York Times writer Charles Duhigg explains, “Patents are being used to wage war in the digital world, and as a result, patents have become a toll gate on the road of innovation.” Patents are not only taking up precious time for nothing, but they are also keeping entrepreneurs from developing new technologies out of fear of getting sued.

Patent litigation and patent trolling is a nasty war where no one seems to be winning. The bottom line is that in the war where patents are being used as a weapon, consumers are experiencing the fallout.
