caution on cigarette pack, important is ?

2011-09-20T13:11:00.000-07:00

78News - Government Regulation on the use of health warnings in the form of images until now still not finished. Various levels of health have also contributed voice. So what's wrong?

Currently, the government is completing the Government Regulation of Tobacco Products Security addictive substances as mandated Health Law No.36/2009 which one of the articles are health warnings on cigarette packs.

Draft has been completed also discussed inter-ministerial technical team and harmonization has been done by the ministries of Justice and Human Rights.

Socialization and consultation are also already underway in several ministries, including ministries of health, law and human rights ministries, and Coordinating Minister for People's Welfare (Welfare).

Unfortunately, there has not been fully acceptance of health warnings in the form of images on cigarette packs, which involves the two ministries of industry and trade. Both are still awaiting the results of the Constitutional Court.

So far the trade ministry did not agree if health warnings are made in the form of images. They still wanted in writing. While the Ministry of Industry agrees as long as broad picture is only 30 percent.

The result, until now still going controversy for the regulations. RPP completion time getting stretched. Some of the reasons for rejection on the basis of such deadly tobacco farmers and the technical inability of small industries to be a big challenge.

Development Coordinator Wrap Cigarette Health Warning Widyastuti Soerojo from the Faculty of Public Health University of Indonesia (FKM UI) explains, some requirements in the inclusion of images and text proposed in the Draft as follows:

First, imprinted on the top of the packaging side of the front and rear width of 50 percent, beginning with the word "Warning" by using white letters and black base. Writings also must be printed clearly and prominently, either partially or entirely.

The second, the image should be printed in color. Finally, type the letter must use arial bold font and font size 10 or proportional to the packaging.

"The magnitude of the image based on research that has been done in Canada with an image area measuring the level of effectiveness ranging from 30 to 60 percent, and the results show increasingly large image size meal will be more effective," he explained.

Therefore, some countries such as Canada and Singapore decided 50 percent as the minimum number of the most effective.

Even the countries of Brunei Darussalam had dared to make a decision to include an image by 75 percent in cigarette products in 2012. Uruguay set to 80 percent.

Actually, Indonesia has done this, but it is limited to cigarettes that are exported to foreign countries that require all tobacco products use an image as a health warning.

On the basis of these, should Indonesia had already implemented a pack of cigarettes packaging with a picture.

Indonesia is already implementing health warnings on all packs of cigarettes in small print at the bottom rear surface since 1999.

This warning contains a series of health problems from smoking and is considered ineffective because while it is difficult to imagine a form of the disease, a message that never replaced it does not make smokers believe its dangers.

Dikonfimasi to the House of Representatives, member of Commission XI DPR-RI Subagyo Partodiharjo said this rule should be made good and, seeing no clear laws that protect the public from the dangers of smoking.

"People need to be protected against the negative effects of smoking. Anything that hinders the protection included in the crime," he said.(bog)

Found Virus Busters Cancer Cells

2011-09-18T23:51:00.000-07:00

Research to find a cure for cancer continues to be done by experts from all over the world. Now present a speck of hope for cancer patients following the discovery of a unique kind of virus by scientists in Europe.

In the latest study, researchers from LIFE - Faculty of Life Sciences, the University of Copenhagen Denmark found that the vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) has a great potential that was not previously known. The virus has two great abilities that is, kill the cancer cells as well as stop the expression of certain molecules of the type of hidden cancer cells in the immune system.

According to researchers, some types of cancer cells known to express immunostimulatory molecules are so much liquid, thereby blocking the ability of the immune system to recognize them, and allow these cells evolve toward cancer

Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) is a rhabdovirus. This virus originated from the same family with the rabies virus, and causes a disease similar to foot and mouth disease in cattle.

"Excessive expression seen in cancers such as melanoma, testicular cancer, ovarian cancer and certain types of leukemia that significantly damage the immune system, thus reducing the chance of recovery of patients," Soren Skov, associate professor of immunology of LIFE.

Skov was the leader of a research team that recently launched a major project in the European Union to study the potential to improve cancer treatment by strengthening the immune system. In one part of his research are also published in the Journal of Virology, the researchers infected human cancer cells with VSV.

"We were able to show that the virus (VSV) can kill cancer cells. The results also showed that the VSV is highly effective in inhibiting the production of immunostimulatory molecules - which act to destroy the immune system-and thus would allow someone to survive," says Skov.

Important breakthrough

Skov assess these findings as a breakthrough that is clear and a big leap towards better cancer treatment, where the immune system will be able to more effectively stop the progression of cancer. Skov hope in the future these findings can be an alternative to chemotherapy, and tailored to each patient's disease.

"The next step will be clinical trials in humans. The test has been conducted in the United States," said Helle Jensen, a researcher who has conducted research in the LIFE project in collaboration with the Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Copenhagen and the National Veterinary Institute at the Technical University of Denmark ( DTU).

Bambang Harjo also said that road accidents caused more factors such as unsterile its path so that on either side of the house so many people who crossed both humans and animals.

Then, Bambang said, there are two-way street intersecting banya and narrow, so the risk of collision is very large. Also less lighting and roads damaged many holes.

Google Borong Again Thousand IBM Patents

2011-09-18T23:34:00.001-07:00

Patent wars in the information technology and telecommunications industries apparently still ongoing. Google as one of his players come back to buy new ammunition in order to strengthen its portfolio in the future from its competitors lawsuit.

This time, Google bought more than 1,000 patents owned by IBM. This is not the first purchase because in July 2011, Google also has bought more than 1,000 patents IBM. Most of these patents from IBM and a small portion coming from Cognos, a company acquired by IBM in the year 2007. This was first reported by Seo By The Sea.

With the purchase of IBM's patents for the second time this coupled with the possibility of success of Google's acquisition of Motorola's Mobility, Google's patent portfolio is estimated to be distended achieve at least 27,000 patents.

Like the previous transaction in July, the purchase value of IBM's patents are not mentioned. Patents are bought by Google by SEO By The Sea are in the field of desktop and server hardware, computer security, database processes, circuit design, parallel database systems and architecture, user authentication, creditcard / smartcard testing, and many others.

A patent of interest is about System And Method For Disambiguating Entities In A Web Page Search which is a joint invention Ramanathan Guha.

At Google, he worked on the Google Custom Search and the people who are behind the Google trust rank that play a role in ranking the writer / producer of content in places like Google + and possibly also in web search results.

This indicates Google is not just focused in patents related to buying a smartphone or tablet, but is also associated with the search engines to solidify their position in search engines.

It seems that after the defeat Google in Nortel's patent auction, Google is constantly trying to increase their patent portfolios. So far IBM's patent portfolio is the largest contributor (Motorola approved prior to its acquisition) for Google.

Some of the patents that Google bought IBM's strongly related to the smartphone industry such as:

First Impressions tested the Windows 8

2011-09-18T23:30:00.000-07:00

Viewed from a long history of development of Microsoft Windows operating system, Windows 8 may be regarded as the third milestone after the presence of Windows 95 with a navigation system and the Windows 32 Taskbar is the first version of Windows.

Windows 8 offers an interface and experience a truly new for Windows users. However, for users of touch-screen gadget, the presence of Windows 8 is nothing more than follow the developments that era, in which the role of a keyboard and mouse were taken over by the touch and sweep of a finger.

After Microsoft released Windows 8 trial version for developers, two days ago, I immediately downloaded the file. I have used is a 32 bit Windows Developer Preview of 2.8 GB. Files ending in. Iso must be "burned" into the DVD first. Previously, I tried to install directly from the hard disk and flash disk, but stopped in the middle of the road. Installing this operating system must use DVDs.

The installation process does not take long. Only about one-third the time required to install Windows 7 that have previously been embedded in laptops. The green color will dominate the display during installation.

Installation is complete, users will be immediately taken to the Start page is no longer attached to the Taskbar. In the newest version, Windows Start Menu Start page transformed into elongated shades of green that is filled with the default application buttons. This is the entrance of Windows that is fully dedicated to the device touch screen. This view is immediately reminded me of the iPad who became my second device within the last year.

Please note, in this trial version, all applications (beyond the Windows default application) that exist in previous versions of Windows can not be used in this version, including Microsoft Office applications.

Due to Microsoft's latest operating system I use on a laptop Acer, features a touch screen can not be used. However, it does not matter, because Windows 8 can still be used on computers or laptops without the touch screen. To scroll to another menu, I simply roll up the page with your mouse or click the arrow button at the bottom of the Start page. While in the top corner, there is the user profile whose picture can be replaced by utilizing existing webcam.

Although the look of the Start Menu changes, Windows still maintains the old view that here referred to as "Desktop". Once you click on the Desktop menu, you will return to the old atmosphere, complete with pictures desktop, Taskbar panel, and the "Start" Windows logo in the lower left corner.

But, once again, the Start button will not remove a row of menu as in previous versions. When you click the Windows logo or pressing the Start button on the keyboard, you will be pulled back to the Start page. In addition, you can highlight the mouse to the left corner of the taskbar to bring up the buttons governance consists of the Settings menu, Devices, Share, and Search.

When it gets into Windows Explorer, I find the display a new menu that is more structured. I consider this view as the standardization of Microsoft Office 2010 appearance that, in addition to the Windows Explorer, also applied to the WordPad application.

To move to the previous application, you can still use the key combination Alt + Tab or Windows key + Tab (but animated Aero does not come out in this version). In addition, you can switch between applications by attaching the cursor to the left side of the screen. A minilayar will exit near the cursor which will take you to another application. Wait for the next review. (Kompasiana / Iskandarjet)

2011-09-18T23:20:00.000-07:00

Although the development of Windows Phone no sepesat IOS Apple or Google Android, Microsoft is still reaping the rewards of the smartphone industry is growing rapidly. Not because Microsoft is getting quite a bit of money from the sale of Android.

Why Microsoft could gain a lot of money from Android? This is because Microsoft provides a soft policy towards the use of Intellectual Property used in theirs Android smartphone. Microsoft adheres to the principles of patent licenses so that some of those patents are used by their Android Relax to wear long as there is payment of royalties to the patent is used. The amount paid by some vendors Android is estimated at least three times the income derived by Microsoft from selling Windows Phone device.

Microsoft's policy is very different from Apple Inc who want their gadgets superiority, both the iPhone and iPad. With this concept, Apple Inc. does not want imitation, let alone the illegal use of patents owned by Apple Inc. smartphone or tablet produced by other vendors.

Microsoft's approach is in accordance with the conditions of patent wars. Although not much like Apple Inc. reported that many vendors accused of Android, Microsoft's revenue gain very much from the Android. In the past month of May 2011, Asymco report any Android devices are sold by HTC, Microsoft will gain five dollars. When HTC predicted this year could sell 50 million smartphones, of course, Microsoft will acquire 250 million U.S. dollars. This is just one vendor.

A few days ago, Microsoft has agreed with ViewSonic and Acer in patent licensing. Although not mentioned how big the deal, analysts believe Microsoft will be the greater revenue from Android. Moreover, not just Android, Chrome laptop produced by Acer will also pay royalties to Microsoft. Of course, Microsoft's policy is very lenient in giving patents tremendous value. It seems that Microsoft will not take the way that Apple Inc. sued for alleged patent infringement pesiangnya because they just want a royalty so that it can provide income that is not a little to the company's cash.
