The Academy Awards Of Oscars Winners

This has not been a good year for Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences President Tom Sherak. Less than a year ago the Academy put on one of the most critically lambasted Oscar shows in great memory. That was followed by the controversial decision to change the best picture rules after only two years of a 10 nominees system. Next came the eyebrow raising good decision to hire industry infant terrible Brett Ratner as the co-executive producer of the this year's 84th Academy Awards along with the bizarre return of previous producer Don Misher.

Today Sherak and the Academy found themselves the subject of a major investigative article from the Los Angeles Times breaking down the organization's usually private membership details. The subject matter is especially timely as the Oscars follow a year of zero nominations for minorities in the major categories with just three in 2012. The results of the Times findings aren't shocking, but they are incredibly discouraging for an organization that has publicly been trying to diversify since 2003.

When the names of winners are revealed on Oscar night, year 2011 of suspense give way to tears, smiles and nice speeches. Yet when the curtain falls, one question remains: Who cast the votes?About 37 million people tuned in to the Academy Awards Oscars last year, and a great deal rides on the show's outcome. Winning a golden statuette can vault an actor to stardom, add millions to a movie's box office and boost a studio's prestige.

The Samsung Galaxy- Phone-Tablet Hybrid

The Walt Moss berg tests the Samsung Galaxy Note, a phone-tablet hybrid with a large screen that uses a stylus as well as your fingers. Lots of folks carry nice a smartphone, and, at least some of the time, tote a second mobile device an i Pad or other tablet. But some people might prefer a product that combines the two. Similarly, many have come to love the finger-controlled interface popularized by great Apple, but might prefer at times to use a stylus, a common tool in the per-iPhone days.

After testing the Galaxy Note. It isn't a very practical phone and, as a tablet, it can't match the experience of the i Pad, which is more spacious and has over 150,000 apps designed for it. However, I can see where some folks might consider the 5-inch screen a good trade-off for much better portability than other tablets, and Samsung application has done some very interesting work in making the stylus, which is stored in a slot on the device, most useful.

The NAND Flash Memory Technology Generations 2012

Now a day the Apple would have to acknowledge the acquisition in its quarterly financial results to be released later this month. Reuters reported Wednesday that an Apple spokesperson did confirm the purchase but would not disclose its plans for Anobit.

Anobit uses consumer-grade NAND flash memory technology to make storage products for data centers.Apple is the industry's largest consumer of NAND flash technology, so acquiring Anobit would give it a means of addressing reliability problems that arise as solid-state memory shrinks in size.

Anobit has produced two generations of Genesis SSD technology. The intellectual property that sets it apart from other SSD manufacturers is a controller that uses firmware it calls Memory Signal Processing (MSP), a type of ECC. The MSP technology increases the signal-to-noise ratio, making it possible to continue reading data even as electrical interference rises.

The Smart TV Vendors To Use Android

Welcome to CES 2012 Galaxy Note Review wonderful Apple Galaxy Nexus Review Samsung Hub iPad 3.Google reportedly paying smart TV vendors to use Android Chris Davies, Jan 9th 2012.

The Google is reportedly paying manufacturers to use Android in their TVs, with models such as Lenovo’s new K91 ICS-based smart TV supposedly earning vendors a kick-back.

The deals, so Neowin‘s sources say, are part of the Google’s plan to extend Android through the living room, and are likely what chairman Eric Schmidt was referring to when he suggested that the majority of new TVs would support Google TV by this summer.




That great decision on Lenovo’s part could be down to the K91′s launch schedule: the smart TV will hit in China first, before spreading to other territories, and currently Google TV is only officially supported within the US. It could indicate that, when the K91 does get its US launch, Lenovo might modify it to support to Google TV, or that by the time the release takes place it could coincide with Google’s own international smart TV plans.
