Study in Canada

Canada is one of the most preferred locations when it comes to education. Imparting quality education to above 90,000 students from all corners of the world, this North American country is a preferred destination for the purpose. If you are wondering why choose Canada? There are several reasons for it. The country has a strong deep rooted education system that Canadians place great importance to. Every year a major portion of the GDP is spent on improving and uplifting the state of education system. The system is backed by both private and public institutions.

From kindergarten to Universities, the nation has it all. Another great reason for making this your country for knowledge base country is the comparatively low cost of tuition for foreign students. After completing their respective courses, the foreign nationals can also take up jobs and choose to make their career in the nation. Institutions providing quality education are spread all over the country. Students can pick the one that offers the course of their choice for admission. A Canadian degree is equivalent to any American degree. It is thus of great importance worldwide.

Given below are top 5 identifiable reasons why students migrate overseas for studies-

Nokia’s Crazy Bendy Kinetic Concept Blew Your Mind? Watch This! | TechCrunch



Nokia’s Crazy Bendy Kinetic Concept Blew Your Mind? Watch This! | TechCrunch:

Nokia is totally ready for the future. They’ve already debuted a totally insane flexible kinetic interface concept, and now they’ve even drawn up an implementation for it: HumanForm. No, the phone doesn’t look like a you-themed action figure, but rather has a tear drop shape (probably my biggest gripe about the concept).

I’m not going to go into too much detail about what’s included in the video, as you can easily see for yourself. I will, however, say that this takes the cake compared to Nokia’s earlier flexi-screen concept. One thing that really jumped out at me is the idea of electro-tactile feedback. Seems pretty out there, but it would be pretty freaking sweet to take a picture of velvet or wood and feel that texture.
I’m not so sure how I feel about the shape, though. In the hand, I’m sure this concept is actually much more comfortable than our usual candy-bar phones. But (and this is a big but), how do you account for corners of anything? At this point we’re watching video and viewing pictures on our phone pretty regularly. Web pages happen to be rectangular, as is just about anything you pull up on a mobile phone.
’m sure there are ways to circumvent this issue, but it seems like too far of a leap to make from rectangle to teardrop. It reminds me of when Dwight wanted everyone in The Office to sell the Sabre Pyramid, a triangular tablet. It seemed crazy, but in the fictional version of Scranton, PA people still seemed to be interested in “unleashing the power of the pyramid.” Maybe the same will be true for Nokia.
Then again, if this concept even comes to fruition, it won’t be for quite a while. Enjoy the video while you wait.

Intel releases SSD Toolbox 3.0 to optimize drive performance

Intel releases SSD Toolbox 3.0 to optimize drive performance

Toolbox 3.0 provides offers secure erase to ensure data is permanently deleted

Computerworld - Intel on Thursday released the third generation of its solid-state drive monitoring and management firmware SSD Toolbox 3.0, which offers many of the same tools as previous versions but with a simpler interface.
The SSD Toolbox, which is available on Intel's website, has a simpler graphical user interface (GUI) for Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) technology. SMART can perform diagnostic scans of SSDs, providing drive information such as the amount of free capacity and the estimated life remaining. It also has a health scale, illustrating whether the drive is functioning optimally.
In 2009, Intel's first SSD Toolbox release was focused on optimizing the performance of its X25-M consumer-class solid state disk (SSD) drive with theWindows 7 operating system.

Toolbox 3.0 allows firmware updates to SSDs under Microsoft Windows instead of using DOS with previous versions. The new firmware also uses a simpler GUI and offers a "System Information" icon to help guide users to tech-support troubleshooting.
