Shakespeare style is being insults, by iPhone Application.
Advertisement
I don’t know about you, but in my daily travels, I come across a lot of people who merit a savage dressing-down. Most of the time, I’m up to the task, believe you me. But on occasion, the wit well runs a bit dry. And nothing’s more embarrassing than facing down someone in need of a well-crafted insult with nothing more than an “Oh, yeah?” or a “Same to you, buddy” in your arsenal.
But why struggle to come up with appropriate insults when William Shakespeare has done all the work for you? That’s the idea behind Official Shakespeare Audio Insulter from CHS Systems.
The $1 app is an iPhone spin on the Shakespearean insult generators you’ll find on the Internet. This app’s distinguish feature: the insults take on spoken form. Just touch the picture of The Bard and stand back as he denounces you as a goatish, weather-bitten clotpole (in an accent that clearly did not originate in Stratford-on-Avon). Because of the audio aspect, the Insulter app works best on iPhones and second-generation iPod touches; the developer says first-generation iPod touch owners will need a pair of headphones to hear Shakespeare’s timeless words of abuse.
Trojan Horse is hidden in the Pirated Apple’s iWork 09 application Suit.
An Intego Security Alert warns of a new exploit to threaten the tranquility of the Mac universe: OSX.Trojan.iServices.A Trojan Horse.
The new Trojan Horse is currently hidden in pirated copies of Apple’s iWork ‘09 available via various BitTorrent tracker sites. While the software is complete and functional, the installer contains a “bonus” called iWorkServices.pkg. This software is installed as a startup item where it has read-write-execute permissions for root: in other words, it has all the powers of a system administrator. This malicious software connects to a remote server over the internet,

Panoramic Photo of Obama’s Inauguration Speech 2GB by David Bergman
Check out this 1,474 megapixel image of President Barack Obama delivering his Inauguaral Address.
David Bergman was fortunate enough to have a photographer’s press pass for the Presidential Inaguration in Washington Tuesday, and he used his access wisely. With a Gigapan Imager and his Canon G10, Bergman shot 220 images and took more than six and a half hours using Gigapan software to put them all together on his Macbook Pro. The completed TIF file is almost 2 gigabytes.
You can view the image in minute detail using flash controls at Bergman’s website, in full-screen mode here (I found this the best viewing on my machine), and at the Gigapan site.

Researchers of Tokyo Universtiy (IIS) created Doll composed of Living Cells
To demonstrate a new method for fabricating three-dimensional living biological structures, researchers at the University of Tokyo’s Institute of Industrial Science (IIS) have created a 5-millimeter tall doll composed of living cells.
According to an announcement made on January 22, the researchers created the tiny figurine by cultivating 100,000 cell capsules — 0.1-millimeter balls of collagen, each coated with dozens of skin cells — together inside a doll-shaped mold for one day. After the cell capsules had coalesced to form the doll-shaped mass of tissue, it was placed in a culture solution, where it reportedly survived for more than a day.
The researchers, led by IIS professor Shoji Takeuchi, also successfully tested the biofabrication method with human liver cells. According to Takeuchi, the technique can be used to create bodily organs and tissues with complex cellular structures, which may prove useful in the fields of regenerative medicine and drug development.
“The overall shape can be controlled by changing the mold,” said Takeuchi, who expressed a desire to combine multiple types of cells to create a complex system that functions as a living organism.

An application to align Your Secreen Automatically…
AutoAlign Screen from XDA Developers is a tiny application that will align your screen automatically in case you misaligned or would need to realign it over time.
It is also very useful for people using screen protectors, when you would tap the screen through the protector and the alignment wouldn’t be a perfect one. This utility aligns the screen automatically via some mathematical formulas and equations so it is advertised to be very precise.
AutoAlign Screen currently works for VGA and WVGA devices like the Touch Diamond, Touch Pro, Touch HD and Xperia. After you install the cab to Device, there will be an icon in your Programs menu which when tapped, will make calibrate your screen (but it will look like another installation. That’s when the correct registry entries are set).

The Touch Diamond is going to capture the market of iPhone Nano
If the Touch HD is the closest Windows Mobile competition to the iPhone in terms of capabilities, size, then the rumored iPhone Nano will be competing with the Touch Diamond in terms of dimension and features.
According to Brighthand, Mac rumor sites have found a silicon skin case for the diminutive iPhone Nano from a Chinese maker, stirring more speculation of the device’s launch. The device maker had gained reputation for pre-releasing photos of the iPhone 3G’s case and a recent iPod case ahead of Apple’s announcement. The smaller iPhone will be similar to the iPhone 3G, but may eschew 3G and come with a smaller screen.
