Bigger the flat panel TV, higher is the risk of breaking the front display panel glass. SONY Corp. found a solution in a type of glass called Corning Gorilla Glass which is designed into several models of Sony’s 46-inch and larger BRAVIA HDTVs. The corning Gorilla Glass is strengthened at the molecular level in order to provide superior damage resistance and yet maintaining good contrast level as its strong even when it’s molded very thin. 0.7 mm is the thickness of this glass used in Bravia models and it has been found effective in protecting from everyday wear like scratches while transporting, installing or cleaning.

Remember those school days how messy your hands would get in arts and crafts class while attempting to stick something on a sheet of cardboard using adhesive? Adhesives are used in many fields and one such adhesive is epoxy which is a very strong adhesive capable to holding lots of weight. In hardware and engineering works several types of oils, lubricants, and adhesives are used. Every type of adhesives are not applicable using hand and thus need special tools or dispensers. Not only for ergonomics reasons but these dispensers are also useful to speed up the work and also to minimize the wastage. These dispensers are available not only as epoxy dispenser but also for other materials like silicone, acrylic, soldering paste, fluxes, grease, lubricants etc. Using proper dispenser allows clean application of material with least wastage, thus increasing profit. You must have experienced this when you apply epoxy or any other adhesive using hand, not only your hands get dirty but you also contaminate the adhesive. Sometimes just a contact with air is enough to make the adhesive useless for production purpose. This is not a big problem in household use but in commercial use, the contamination of material can lead to problems and quality issues in final product. If we don’t use proper dispenser, it becomes very difficult to apply the material on certain surfaces. IPSCOT Inc. is a good known brand producing widest range of dispensers and water syringe since 1983. Sometimes the use of dispenser is a must like in case of chemical dispensers because you would never like to get in direct contact with chemicals. Some of these chemicals are strong enough to be lethal if consumed even in small quantity accidently. Use of good quality dispenser is a must for safe dispensing of chemicals both in commercial and institutional use.

Not everyone own or carry digital SLR camera all the time and most of the time the camera we have is the either point and shoot camera or our phone camera. As long as you are not shooting for any kind of photography competition, these point and shoot cameras work just fine. However due to the limited features and capabilities you will have to do a little extra work on the images taken by your cell phone camera. Here is an example of this image:

This image was taken by me using my phone. The object (jeep) in the middle of this picture was or sale by my friend who deals in scrap business and wanted to sell one of his jeep. He is a fan of jeeps and due to the nature of his business he often spots some restorable jeeps in scrap yard which he restores and sells it. Anyway that’s another story, here what he wanted from me to take a good picture of the jeep for posting on online classifieds. Since the jeep was standing in a not so good looking background and being in a hurry I did not wanted to drive this jeep to a good location. I took the picture and told him that I’ll email him after editing it. Apart from usual brightness and contrast correction that most of us do, you can do something more if you want to highlight any object in picture. Here the main object to be highlighted was the jeep and rest of the not so good looking was not at all important. Here’s what we need to do.

1. Open the image to edit in Adobe Photoshop and view the image in 100% zoom level which means viewing it in its original size. Always take the higher resolution picture, almost double the size of picture actually needed. For example for online catalogue, 640×480 pixels is good size so for editing use at least 1280×960 pixels image. We need to work on large size image so that for final use we can resize the image to required size and thus hide minor flaws in editing.

2. Now from tool box select the Lasso Tool. I used Polygonal Lasso Tool; you may use other 2 lasso tools if your image allows them. Basically the simple Lasso Tool is for very fine image with lots of irregular edges and it’s hard to use. The Polygonal Lasso tool is for those images which have lots of straight line edges like the image I am working on is a Jeep with lots of straight edges. The last one is Magnetic Lasso Tool which requires least effort but works only on simpler images with not much irregular edges and cleaner background.

3. Using your Lasso Tool, select the object to be highlighted. No need to select with too much precision but, still don’t do a lousy work here in selecting either!
4. Now click Select and then click on Inverse. This will select the outer region which we actually need to work on.

5. Now click on Filter > Blur > Gaussian Blur. Slide the radius until the background turns blur to desired value. The background should be blurred to that extent that it should still give the hint about the background but not completely.

6. All Done! Resize the image to smaller size to hide flaws if occurred during selecting. If you selected very precisely then you might not need any resizing at all. Save the finished image. Isn’t it looking cool now?

Every home has got few old thick (sometimes dusty) photo albums kept safely somewhere which comes out only when relatives, friends and guest gather. Since these photos are not on your hard disk drive but on paper and that too quite an aged, it’s sure that whenever the album is taken out, it gets slightly damaged. Not only when you see them but keeping the printed photos in no matter how much care, these photos tend to lose the gloss. What if you don’t have the negatives of all these photographs? Will you let the old memories go in dustbin after some years? Definitely not! What you need to do is preserve these photographs in digital format so that these photos last forever without losing their originality. There is a service called Gophoto which will handle the entire photo scanning process for you and saving you from the trouble of scanning each and every photo. So how this works? Very simple, all you need to do is mail them your old photos/negatives and they will scan each and every photo and upload it on their website which can be viewed only by you. During this process they also correct minor flaws in photos like red eye or color/contrast etc. Very old photos that develop scratch or any other defect will also be checked. Now when you check your photos on their website you can reject the photos that you don’t want to share and select only those which you want to keep, and guess what, you pay only for those photos which you keep! After the scanning and correction work is complete, Gophoto will return your original photos along with a free CD/DVD which will contain all photos in digital format so that you can view them on your computer or TV anytime and anywhere you want.

GM Corporation, a business of computer case and power supply, has launched a new power supply model of ANDYSON which they refer as F series.

The best thing about F series is that it has the most brand-new circuit among the ANDYSON’S lineups and +12V is output as a single rail, which is its specialty. In low cost power supplies, the +12v rail is distributed among different cables i.e., it’s same for motherboard, HDD and other molar connections as well. This can result in an unstable operation if some component starts drawing more current which happens in case of some overclocked components. According to a self-test, it shows maximum 85% of efficiency which is quite decent. And it’s an eco product that minimizes standby power and follows RoHS by applying green IC. It’s produced to fully use ATX 12V 2.3 standard and recent EPS standard also, guaranteeing high-quality compatibility in different system environments. This power supply is well equipped to handle problems like high frequency sounds that products with Active-PFC circuit applied within the domestic system. This product prioritizes user interface with reinforcing circuit to minimize high frequency sounds happening due to Active-PFC circuit applying and installing protective circuit with higher quality.

It uses 120mm fan with automatic speed control according to system environment but AFG (Air Flow Guide) to optimize cooling is applied. Furthermore, the new F series of ANDYSON introduced upgraded double forward circuit and condenser which can endure up to 105 degrees during ultimate output. There are 2 models in F series, one is 500 and other is 600w both carrying 3 years warranty.
