Now, a printer that uses water instead of ink

A team of chemists has unveiled a new 'water-jet' printer that uses water instead of ink.

The used paper fades back to white within a day, which enables it to be reused.

Sean Xiao-An Zhang, a chemistry professor at Jilin University in China, who oversaw work on the innovation, said that many statistics indicate that about 40 per cent of office prints are taken to the waste paper basket after a single reading.

The trick lies in the paper, which is treated with an invisible dye that colours when exposed to water, and later disappears, News24 reported.

The print fades away in about 22 hours at temperatures below 35 degree Celsius and quicker if exposed to high heat.

Zhang and his team used a previously little-studied dye compound called oxazolidine that yields a clear, blue print in less than a second after water has been applied.

The paper has been published in the journal Nature Communications.

Facebook likely to lose 80% users by 2017 : Study

Facebook (FB) is likely to lose 80 per cent of its users and getting largely abandoned by 2017, researchers at Princeton University said.

John Cannarella and Joshua Spechler revealed that the charts produced by the Google Trends service show Facebook searches peaked in December 2012, but since begun to trail off, The Guardianreports.

The researchers made the forecast by comparing the growth curve of others online social networks, like bubonic plague.

Facebook celebrates its 10th birthday on 4 February and has survived longer than rivals, such as Myspace and Bebo, the report added.

However, idea manifesters lose interest with the idea over the years and no longer manifest the idea, which can be thought of as the gain of ''immunity'' to the idea, researchers said.

Although the drop in Google searches for Facebook might be because of the reason that users have moved on to their smartphones for logging on to the social platform, there has been a decrease in daily users, specifically among younger teens in last three months, the report added

All Pre 2005 notes to go out of currency from March 2013

     
                  

All pre-2005 notes to go out of currency from March 31…

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on Wednesday announced it would withdraw all pre-2005 currency notes from the economic system come March 31 this year.
Here’s a quick FAQ to help you understand the issue: 

Q: Will my currency notes become invalid from April 1? 
A: Partly. While you cannot use them for your normal transactions, you will still be able to go to a bank and have them exchanged. 

Q: Till when can I have my notes exchanged at the bank? 
A: After July, persons seeking exchange of more than 10 pieces of Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes will have to furnish proof of identity and residence to the bank. 

Q: How can I tell whether a note is pre- or post-2005? 
A: All notes printed after 2005 have the year printed in the middle of the bottom row. Pre-2005 notes do not have this feature. 

Q: Why did RBI decide only on 2005 as the cutoff year? 
A: Notes issued since 2005 have a different design and colour and this will bring uniformity to the cash system. They also have more security features to tell apart from fakes such as added watermark, etc. These notes are thus better in fighting the counterfeit currency menace. 

Q: In what denominations do pre-2005 notes exist? 
A: Pre-2005 notes in all current denominations -- from Rs 5 to Rs 1,000 -- are in circulation.

Q: What will RBI do to the pre-2005 notes withdrawn from the system? 
A: Central banks typically destroy withdraw currency notes by shredding them. 

Q: What is the motive behind the RBI move? A: While the central bank has not given an explanation, it is said the move is fight the counterfeit-currencies issue as well as to flush out black money from before 2005 that could still be held in cash. 

Q: What is the average lifespan of currency notes? 
A: There is no official declaration on this. In the US, the estimated lifespan of a currency tender ranges from about six years for the USD 1 bill to 15 years for the USD 100 bill, according to the Federal Reserve website.

Today is Birthday of Swami Vivekananda (12 January 1863)

Today is Birthday of Swami  

Vivekananda

Swami Vivekananda ( 12 January 1863 – 4 July 1902), born Narendra Nath Datta was an Indian Hindu monk and chief disciple of the 19th-century saint Ramakrishna. He was a key figure in the introduction of the Indian philosophies of Vedanta and Yoga to the Western world and is credited with raising interfaith awareness, bringing Hinduism to the status of a major world religion during the late 19th century.He was a major force in the revival of Hinduism in India, and contributed to the concept of nationalism in colonial India. Vivekananda founded the Ramakrishna Math and the Ramakrishna Mission. He is perhaps best known for his inspiring speech which began, "Sisters and brothers of America ...," in which he introduced Hinduism at the Parliament of the World's Religions in Chicago in 1893.

Born into an aristocratic Bengali family of Calcutta, Vivekananda was inclined towards spirituality. He was influenced by his guru, Ramakrishna, from whom he learnt that all living beings were an embodiment of the divine self; therefore, service to God could be rendered by service to mankind. After Ramakrishna's death, Vivekananda toured the Indian subcontinent extensively and acquired first-hand knowledge of the conditions prevailing in British India. He later travelled to the United States, representing India at the 1893 Parliament of the World Religions. Vivekananda conducted hundreds of public and private lectures and classes, disseminating tenets of Hindu philosophy in the United States, England and Europe. In India, Vivekananda is regarded as a patriotic saint and his birthday is celebrated as National Youth Day in India.
