- E-learning Courses for High End IT Education

Increasingly, as organizations are going global and are hugely IT driven, there is an acute need to reduce skill gap and massive shortfall of trained professionals. With the severe recession around the corner, the focus is on cutting costs and reducing cycle times with projects getting more and more complex, there is a strong requirement for anytime, anywhere and cost effective training. To address this enormous need of training and talent shortage in the IT industry, http://www.qaiasia.com (QAI), announced their e learning venture http://www.edistalearning.com (EdistaLearning)

If you take a top-of-the-line express train in America, nothing more modern than an electric shaver can even be plugged in much less have any practical use while onboard. 10 times as long as plane flights, more expensive and no computer use? Why aren't trains more popular here again?

Not the case in Europe. They are using technology from the European Space Agency to allow internet addicts to get their fix even in mass transit. Thalys is launching full commercial operations for a wireless broadband internet service on board high speed trains, the result of their project "Broadband to trains."

It enables the international railway company to deliver true broadband internet access to passengers travelling between Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam and Cologne.

A team of Canadian researchers has completed a massive survey of the network of protein complexes that orchestrate the fundamental processes of life. In the online edition of the journal Science, researchers from the Université de Montréal describe protein complexes and networks of complexes never before observed – including two implicated in the normal mechanisms by which cells divide and proliferate and another that controls recycling of the molecular building blocks of life called autophagy.

These processes are implicated in diseases such as cancers and autophagy has recently been shown to be involved in degenerative neurological disorders such as Alzheimer's and Huntington's diseases. The discovery will fill gaps in basic knowledge about the workings and evolutionary origins of the living cell and provide new avenues to explore in linking these fundamental processes to human disease.

California Micro Devices (Nasdaq: CAMD) announced that the Company has developed an innovative display controller architecture that serves both the Mobile Display Digital Interface (MDDI) and Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) standards for high speed serial display interfaces for use in today's most advanced mobile handsets. The unique architecture, developed in collaboration with major handset and device manufacturers, will permit advanced handsets that utilize CPUs and application processors with on-chip MDDI compatible hosts to interface with liquid crystal display (LCD) modules that feature either MDDI or MIPI based clients.

WEINHEIM, Germany, May 13 /PRNewswire/ -- Caviar has become one of the rarest and most valuable delicacies. However in view of the over fished sturgeon populations in the wild, the huge demand can only be satisfied with sustainable aquaculture. United Food Technologies AG (UFT) has many years of experience and a significant advantage in know-how in this sector. This week, the company delivered a turnkey aquaculture plant to an operator in Germany. Further projects are currently being implemented on other continents.

It's time to think about a return to the moon. Thanks to being able to stand on the shoulders of giants, we know where to watch for problems - even in the dust. Dust could be more than a housekeeping issue for astronauts who visit the moon because the health of astronauts may depend on the amount of exposure they have to the tiny particles.

During the Apollo lunar missions in the late 1960s and 1970s, the clingy particles were easily transported via spacesuits into the lunar lander following moonwalks. The amount of dust inside the vehicle was so great some astronauts reported they could smell it.

Even though there were no known illnesses due to exposure, lunar dust is a concern because it has properties comparable to that of fresh-fractured quartz, a highly toxic substance. However, the Apollo flights lasted only a few days. During the proposed return to the moon, astronauts will be exposed to lunar dust for longer periods of time, including missions that could last months.
