Save Tigers; Wayanad Tiger Issue
Last day, another tiger was shot down by officials in Wayanad, Kerala. Tiger was spotted in a nearby village and a team of officials were setup to capture the tiger. During the mission, the tiger turned against them and they were forced to shoot down the tiger. This is not a new phenomenon here. Due to habitat destruction, tigers visit nearby villages in search for food. Many tigers are caught/killed from here before. On the other hand, people living there says that they can't even sleep comfortably. They are living in fear of being killed. Why the government is standing still? Why couldn't they do anything to solve this issue? There are many questions like this, to be answered. Anyway, something should be worked out soon, otherwise we may loose our last hope of saving tigers. Lets hope everything to be fine.

Giant Leap in Battery Technology
Researchers in UK have developed a new type of battery which will produce 3 to 4 times more energy than an ordinary one. This battery is based on Lithium-air combination and ordinary ones are generally Lithium-ion ones. These batteries enable us to talk through out a week without recharging our mobile phones, fly across country flights with a functioning laptop or even take a drive of 500 kms in a Chevy Volt, instead of 100 kms today.

Microsoft to enter tablet market on monday
Microsoft is expected to make its long awaited entry into tablet market on monday. they are going to make this leap by using british-designed microchips wich powers most of the smart phones and tablets today, instead of chips from intel. British designed ones use less power hence increasing battery life. Its the main advantage of british designed ones over intel chips. This leap may mark an end to the long historic alliance between Microsoft and Intel. Some reports suggest that Microsoft will introduce an own-brand tablet before licensing software to other third party manufactures such as hp, just like google's "Nexus" Android smart phones.
Anyway, will it be worthy enough to compete with i-pad? Wait and see

Under-Sea Gold
Everysummer, a handfull of fortune seekers hunt for gold in the bottom of Bering Sea. They spend hours under frigid, rocky sea floor, hunting gold from decomissioned sea rigs. Once rigs become barely sea worthy, it will be decomissioned and sea will do the rest. With gold price at all time heights, some may go home rich and some others with bare hands.
