New I~Pad 2012


 

The new I~Pad has actually come to stomp the ICT market with great features which we have been looking for for ages. It comes with very high screen resolution power of 2048*1536 Mega pixels which no any other screen can can compete it. Not even your home theater, not even your laptop or desktop computer.
It is feed with all the softwares produced by apple technology and runs on IOS 5. Buttons, knobs and interface elements have gotten the so called retina treatment.  
It comes with both rear and front cameras going up to 5 mega pixels with WI-FI connectivity of 4G+  giving speed for data connection around the world. 
The screen has a stunning effect on e~books, movies, igames and iphotos. Applications are super-sized from Apple to coincide with the new tablet thus becoming considerably larger and slightly heavier than iPad 1. 
Word processor jumped from 95 to 269MB, spreadsheet from 109 to 283MB, imovie from 70 to 404MB. 
Speculations are that Samsung are also coming up strongly with a tablet to Android market .

PARADIGMS OF PARADOXES

I was reading this article and it was really interestingly made and wanted to share with you my part of the story. Its all about God and his Omnipotence.
The author's point of view is, if God was really omnipotent, then why would he create a rock that would be to heavy for him to lift?
If he can make a rock that is too heavy for him to lift, then he is not omnipotent. Therefore he thinks God does not exist.Its the kind of a question that represents the paradoxes used in attempt to prove that God does not exist.
Is this logical? The problem is , it fails to give us very important information that we can prove otherwise leading to unclear conclusions.
The above discussion fails to give us vital information about Gods nature.
God being omnipotent is his Nature and is not something that is independent. Therefore his attributes operate within his nature.
Here is the point. God can not act in violation of his own existence in nature and he has to be consistent with it. If he ceased to exist, then he will not be in all places thus violating his own nature.
His omnipotence is not an entity on its self.
Omnipotence is not the ability to do anything conceivable but rather something consistent with his nature and his desire within the realm of his unlimited and universal power which we do not posses as human beings. It does not mean he has to violate his nature because if he did something inconsistent,he would be contradicting himself.
God is infinite and for him to make something bigger than him, rock, then he will be violating his nature. 
This is cracking me up.
The whole thing is a paradox and they are trying to make God's existence and nature illogical.

PSYCHOSEXUAL DEVELOPMENT

ORAL STAGE- Child's first source of pleasure is oral, derived from the mouth. During the early stages of a child, the fundamental requirements are food, security and warmth so that they can develop without obstruction.
This is the so called prenatal condition hence creating a very strong bond with the mother. Bonding occurs at this stage, oral stage, as its the capability to create emotional connection as an adult will be severely  impaired. It occurs from birth to 18 months.
ANAL STAGE- It is whereby tension builds up as the bowel and bladder come to full function and thus demanding lots of attention. When urination and defecation occurs, the experiences from the tension relief is pleasurable. Tensions experienced from frustration is also experienced as pain and discomfort. This stages involves child's first experience with the external regulation of an instinctual impulse involving the postponement of the pleasure from relieving tension.
This realization is closely followed by an immature, forerunner of the Genital Stage, when the child begins to know that it's pleasurable to manipulate particular organs of the body i.e mouth, anus and genitals.(18 months-3years)
PHALLIC STAGE- The instinctual urge is objective and aggressive whereas masturbation in the immature Genitals period is essentially subjective experience. With a male infant, mother becomes subjected to love, with jealousy for the father, this is the Oedipus Complex in which the body develops the fear of castration by the father.
After the boy realizes that the father is stronger/powerful as an adversary, reality sets in and he grows to understand the impossibility of his sexual obsession/attachment to the mother. He represses his desire for the mother and hostility develops towards the father.
Females infant situation is more complex. She develops love for the father and jealousy for the mother.Anatomical genital difference from her brother raises the fear that she has been castrated and blames her mother. This is called Electra Complex. Her love for the father is  also tingled with envy because he has what she does not. Her Electra Complex is not repressed but modified by reality and weakens with time, so that she remains identified with her mother.
It is at this stage that the sexuality of early childhood reaches its greatest intensity as males and females sexuality becomes differentiated. Both sexes loyalty to their parents posses problems, however with careful handling by the parents these stages are worked through leaving no ill effect.(3-6years)
LATENCY STAGE- Quiescence stages,from age of 6-to puberty. Adolescence, with its sexual emphasis,gradually channels sexual impulse into object choices and finally into adult life.
At this stage, child's sexual impulses are repressed because of phallic stage( Electra and Oedipus complex). They realize that they cannot fulfill their needs hence identification with parent's of same sex leading to rapid sex roles enrollment. 
Sexual drives are are decreases and libido transferred from parents to friends, clubs and role models. The child learns to adapt to reality and begins begins with the process of repressing earlier traumatic sexual and painful memories called Infantile Amnesia.
GENITAL STAGE- This is whereby we have children's energy focusing on his genitals. Puberty reactivates the early sexual impulses as he/she poses into maturity. The little energy the child's has left is invested in unresolved psychosexual development of earlier stages.
The greater his/her capacity to develop into normal relationship with a sexual partner. If however he remains fixated, particularly during Anal or Phallic stage, his development will troubled as he struggles with further repression and defenses. This where we find others who become homosexuals and lesbians because they could not manage to come through the stage successfully. If he was balanced, he will develop into warm, well balanced and caring adulthood. Person matures from narcissistic pleasures seeking child into socialized adult with much libido sublimated into group and vocational planning and preparation for marriage and parenthood. 

LIGHTNING AND STORMS



Thunderstorms are likely to develop during springs and summer days but can occur all year round. As the sun heats, the air pockets of warmer air start to rise and cumulus clouds form.
Continued heating can cause the clouds to move move vertically forming a tower Cumulus clouds which are often the first signs of of developing Thunderstorm. Keep an eye on the sky and look for darkening clouds, flashes of light or increase in wind speed. Listen for the sound of thunder. If any then you are close enough to be struck by lightning. Go to safe place like shelter and look for all the possible emergency plans.
When the storm approaches, find a shelter either in a building or in a car and close all the openings like windows and doors. Telephone lines and metallic pipes can conduct electricity at this time. Avoid coded telephones, computers or any other electrical appliances. Taking a shower or bath or running water for any purpose from tubs can be of great danger as they can be electrolyte. Surge suppressors for any key equipment needs to be installed for better protection. 
If caught outside, avoid water and open places/spaces and take shelter. Avoid tall trees. If operating an equipment,turn off the engine and take cover inside buildings.
Protect yourself by either going into a low lying place or squat if you can. This is to make you a very small target. 
It is also proven that close proximity to crowded places with other people makes them a bigger target of currents.
Do not lie flat on the ground as this will make you a bigger point of target. Lightning can move in and along the ground surface and many a times victims are struck not by bolts but by current.
If someone is struck help them because they usually do not carry any electrical charge. Injured person will burned both where the current passed and where they left the body. .
Victims may experience cardiac arrest, which may cause sudden death. Perform CPR if the person is unresponsive or or not breathing.
Use Automatic External Defibrillator if available. Injuries include memory and attention loss, depression, hearing loss and sleep disturbance.

Even Penguins Can Fly

Penguins are birds and do have wings. However their wing structured in way to allow them swim in water up to speed of 25 miles per hour. They can not fly in normal circumstances like other birds in the air.
They lay their eggs and raise their chicks on land but spend most of the time in water up to 75% all penguins live in Southern Hemisphere.There are 17 Species of Penguins largest being Emperor penguins(3'f in) and smallest being little penguins or fairy penguins(16 inches), found only in Australia and New Zealand.
All penguins have big heads and short thick necks, webbed legs, streamed-lined bodies and wedged-tailed for fast swimming. Thick bones to enable them stay under water and their wings are developed into flippers. 
They eat krill, fish, squid and very many other seafood.
However, on March 8, penguins were flying in Delta Flight 1641 from San Antonio to Atlanta. It is reported that the pilot made special announcement on the plane whether there was any passenger who was allergic to Penguins. As the plane reached the cruising altitude, two penguins came strolling from one end to the other flapping their wings to the passengers as they took photographs and recorded videos.
