You're the light, you're the night, You're the color of my blood. You're the cure, you're the pain, You're the only thing I wanna touch. Never knew that it could mean so much, so much... You're the fear, I don't care, Cause I've never been so high. Follow me to the dark, Let me take you past our satellites. You can see the world you brought to life..  to life... Fading in, fading out, On the edge of paradise... Every inch of your skin is a holy grail I've got to find. Only you can set my heart on fire, on fire,, Yeah, I'll let you set the pace... Cause I'm not thinking straight... My head spinning around I can't see clear no more... What are you waiting for?

Microsoft Surface Phone release date, news & update: Continuum mode may drive business professionals away from Apple iPhone The Surface Phone could be Microsoft’s last chance to take a shot at Apple’s iPhone. Microsoft currently commands one percent market share but still wants to emerge as a major player in that category. Many tech experts are looking at the Surface Phone not as a serious product but a mere academic exercise. However, a recent ZDNet report has suggested that Microsoft is seriously working on a product that will be completed by late 2017. This product will allow full versions of Windows software run on an ARM processor. ARM processors are used in numerous smartphones worldwide. The report has inspired hundreds of enthusiasts who are still eagerly waiting for a Microsoft Surface Phone. Microsoft had previously revealed that the Surface Phone is a serious contender to Apple’s iPhone. Microsoft’s Continuum feature is what would make the Surface Phone great as...

A mobile-first, cloud-first IDE. Made for the Mac. Microsoft announced that Visual Studio will be available for the Mac for the first time. Visual Studio is Microsoft’s integrated development environment, and for Mac users the most obvious comparison is Apple’s Xcode. Visual Studio for Mac is a place to make apps for the web, iOS, Android, and wearables using the C# programming language. For the most part, the Mac version of Visual Studio seems to have the bulk of features from its Windows counterpart, though it’s still in preview, so some of that will likely change as it plods along to the full release.  Increase productivity Do it all in one place, with visual designers, Intellisense code completion, intelligent refactoring, and a universal search across files, types, members, commands, and NuGets. Customize your apps Integrate with third party resources such as Git, Subversion, or hundreds of thousands of NuGet packages. Get Preview: Click Here

Earth is such a habitable place, thanks in no small part to the vast magnetic field that surrounds our planet, shielding us from harsh solar winds and cosmic radiation. But scientists have been investigating one of the most powerful geomagnetic storms in recent history, and they’ve discovered that our protective barrier isn’t as secure as we thought it was. Turns out, our magnetosphere has been cracked. Researchers have been analysing data from the GRAPES-3 muon telescope in Ooty, India, which recorded a massive burst of galactic cosmic rays on 22 June 2015.  For 2 hours, Earth’s magnetosphere was being bombarded by these particles, which emit immensely high-energy radiation, and travel through space at nearly the speed of light.  These things are so powerful, they can easily penetrate the hull of a spacecraft, and Earth’s magnetic shield is our first line of defence against them.  About 40 hours before the June 22 event, a giant cloud of plasma was ejected ...

Humans may be more aligned with the universe than thought, say scientists who found that the structures of our cell cytoplasm and neutron stars are similar, both resembling helical multistory parking garages. Researchers from the University of California, Santa Barbara in the US, explored the biophysics of shapes - helices that connect stacks of evenly spaced sheets - in a cellular organelle called the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). These structures named 'Terasaki ramps' were thought to be unique to soft matter (like the interior of cells) until researchers happened upon the work of nuclear physicist Charles Horowitz at Indiana University in the US. Using computer simulations, Horowitz and his team had found the same shapes deep in the crust of neutron stars. Nuclear physicists have an apt terminology for the entire class of shapes they see in their high-performance computer simulations of neutron stars: nuclear pasta. These include tubes (spaghetti) and parallel sh...
