230% energy efficient LEDs - Seem to violate first law of thermodynamics


Physicists hell-bent on destroying the universe have come up with a tiny LED that produces 69 Pico watts of light while using just 30 Pico watts of power. That’s an efficiency of above 100%, which should be impossible, but isn’t. And in other breaking news, up is down; black is white and zebras looking the same.
Last week, physicists from MIT published a paper in Physical Review Letters entitled “Thermoelectrically Pumped Light-Emitting Diodes Operating above Unity Efficiency.” My guess is that most physicists cringe a little bit when they see the phrase “above unity,” because that’s another way of saying either “perpetual motion machine” or “free energy,” both of which are likely to get you branded as either an eccentric (if you’re lucky) or a total crackpot (if you’re not).
Over-unity machines may be impossible, but the LED in this paper definitely put out more than twice as much energy in the form of photons as the researchers fed it in the form of electrons. They found that as they decreased the electrical voltage that went into the LED, the emitted light decreased by a direct proportion, while the input power decreased exponentially. In other words, the less power you put into an LED, the more efficient it gets at producing light, and if you decrease the power enough, you can blow right past the 100% efficiency mark.
So, how does this not totally and completely invalidate the conservation of energy? We have to look at how energy flows through the entire system, not just at the electricity in and light out. When the LED gets more than 100% electrically efficient, it starts to cool itself down, which is another way of saying that it’s stealing energy (in the form of heat) from its environment and converting that heat into those over-unity photons.
This cooling effect has some interesting implications for low-power electronics, but most importantly, we can all rest just a little bit easier knowing that the basic physical rules that frame our perception of the universe have survived for one more day.

IPHONE 5 - LiquidMetal


Just a week ago, we took a look at the iPhone Plus — the best iPhone 5 concept we have seen to date. And now, a new LiquidMetal concept has reached the web.
4 Is This The iPhone 5? New LiquidMetal iPhone Concept Surfaces On The Web
This iPhone concept has really a slick and smart feel on the first look. It is supposed to made of a special material known as LiquidMetal, a mix of several different metals. LiquidMetal not only makes the phone more durable, but also makes it look beautiful.

The general specs of this concept include a 4 inch screen with a 10 Mp camera, and a very high-end 5 Mp front facing camera, which will really be more than capable of taking self-portraits, as well as for video-chatting. The full specs of the LiquidMetal made iPhone are,

  • 4 Inch screen
  • Only 7 mm thick
  • 10 Mp camera (rear)
  • 5 Mp camera (front)
  • Faster processor (probably the rumored Quad-Core A6)
  • Quad speakers
  • NFC chip
  • Virtual Home Button
  • Embedded Sim card
  • And ofcourse, the LiquidMetal casing around the iPhone

7 Is This The iPhone 5? New LiquidMetal iPhone Concept Surfaces On The Web
Though we still consider the iPhone Plus better than this with the pico projector and the rear motion sensor, but we surely won’t be disappointed if Apple turns out with an iPhone 5 like this.

Because the liquid metal casing looks simply gorgeous, and this concept is so unbelievably thin at just 7mm that it would make even the recently released Samsung Galaxy S III (8.6 mm thick) look like it needs a bit of exercise.
You can have a look at some photos of this LiquidMetal concept below,

Conclusion: This LiquidMetal concept definitely needs to be cosidered by those Apple designers.

SELAMAT HARI RAYA : SUNNAH DAN ADAB MENYAMBUT HARI RAYA...


SELAMAT HARI RAYA : SUNNAH DAN ADAB MENYAMBUT HARI RAYA...


Eid al-Fitri atau Hari Raya Fitrah adalah hari yang disyariatkan umat Islam menyambutnya sebagai hari bergembira dan bersyukur di atas nikmat yang Allah SWT anugerahkan kepada hamba-Nya yang berjaya melakukan ibadat pada bulan Ramadan.

Oleh itu untuk mendapatkan kesempurnaan sambutan ini, hendaklah mengikut panduan sunnah Rasulullah SAW menyambut Hari Raya, antaranya ialah;

1. Mandi sebelum keluar menunaikan solat Hari Raya.

Imam Malik meriwayatkan: “Sesungguhnya Abdullah bin Umar akan mandi pada pagi hari Raya al-Fitri sebelum beliau keluar ke tempat solat hari raya.” 
Al-Imam al-Nawawi menyebut para ulama‟ telah bersepakat atas sunatnya mandi untuk solat hari raya.


2. Makan sebelum keluar untuk menunaikan solat hari raya ‘Eid al-Fitri dan untuk ‘Eid al-Adha makan selepas solat.


Ini berdasarkan hadis yang diriwayatkan oleh al-Imam al-Bukhari daripada Anas bin Malik katanya: “Sesungguhnya Rasulullah SAW tidak keluar pada pagi hari Raya al-Fitri, sehinggalah Baginda makan terlebih dahulu beberapa biji tamar dan baginda memakannya dalam jumlah yang ganjil.” [HR Al-Bukhari: 953].

Sekiranya tidak ada tamar, makanlah sesuatu yang harus dimakan. Al-Imam Ibnu Hajar al-Asqalani mengulas hadis ini dengan berkata: “Ini kerana untuk mengelakkan (anggapan) adanya tambahan dalam berpuasa, ia juga (petunjuk) bersegera mentaati arahan Allah SWT (untuk tidak berpuasa pada hari tersebut).” [Fath al-Bari: 2/446].

3. Bertakbir pada hari Raya

Takbir hari raya adalah termasuk sunnah yang agung berdasarkan firman Allah SWT: Maksudnya: “Dan hendaklah kamu mencukupkan bilangannya dan hendaklah kamu bertakbir mengagungkan Allah atas petunjuknya yang diberikan kepada kamu, supaya kamu bersyukur.” [Al-Baqarah: 185].


Daripada al-Walid bin Muslim katanya: “Aku bertanya kepada al-Auza’ie dan Malik bin Anas tentang menzahirkan takbir pada dua hari raya. Kata mereka berdua: “Ya, adalah Abdullah bin Umar menzahirkan takbir pada hari raya al-Fitri sehinggalah Imam keluar (untuk menunaikan solat raya).”

Waktu bertakbir bagi Hari Raya al-Fitri ialah bermula pada malam raya iaitu setelah tenggelamnya matahari pada hari akhir Ramadan sehingga masuknya imam ke tempat solat untuk solat hari raya.

4. Takbir Hari Raya

Di dalam Musannaf Ibnu Abi Syaibah dengan sanad yang sahih daripada Ibnu Mas‟ud ra. yang bertakbir pada hari Tasyrik.


Kata ulama, “Ada keluasan dalam lafaz takbir ini, mana-mana lafaz boleh dibaca dan amalkan.” Diangkat suara dalam melafazkan takbir bagi lelaki dan tidak bagi perempuan. Ia dilakukan di merata tempat; di masjid, di rumah dan di pasar-pasar.

5. Ucapan Tahniah Pada Hari Raya

Termasuk dalam adab berhari raya ialah menyampaikan ucap tahniah sesama muslim dengan sebarang ucapan yang baik 


6. Berpakaian baru/cantik di har
i raya

Daripada Jabir katanya: “Nabi SAW mempunyai sehelai jubah yang baginda akan memakainya untuk dua hari raya dan hari Jumaat.” [Sahih Ibnu Khuzaimah: 1765].


Memakai pakaian cantik pada hari raya ini adalah untuk kaum lelaki. Adapun untuk kaum wanita mereka boleh mengenakan pakaian yang biasa (di sebelah luar/atasnya) seperti sabda Nabi SAW: Maksudnya: “Jangan kamu tegah hamba perempuan Allah daripada masjid Allah, tetapi hendaklah kaum wanita keluar dalam keadaan meninggalkan wangian” [HR: Ahmad dan Abu Daud “Sahih”].

Keluar dengan berpakaian biasa di luar dan tidak bertabarruj berhias dan mengenakan wangian yang boleh dihidu baunya oleh lelaki ajnabi. Sekiranya wanita berkumpul dalam kelompok mereka sahaja tidak mengapa untuk berpakaian cantik.

7. Keluar ke tempat solat melalui jalan lain dan balik melalui jalan yang lain.

Daripada Jabir bin Abdillah ra katanya: Maksudnya: “Adalah Nabi SAW, pada hari raya baginda membezakan jalan (pergi dan balik dari solat hari raya).” [Al-Bukhari: 986]
Dikatakan terdapat beberapa hikmah dalam perbuatan ini;

i. Semoga dua jalan yang berbeza tersebut menjadi saksi di hadapan Allah pada hari kiamat nanti. Hal ini kerana bumi akan membicarakan pada hari kiamat apa yang dilakukan di atasnya daripada perkara-perkara yang baik dan jahat.
ii Untuk menzahirkan syiar-syiar Islam.
iii. Untuk menzahirkan zikir kepada Allah SWT. 
iv. Untuk mengambil tahu keperluan orang-orang yang memerlukan sebarang bantuan atau untuk menziarahi sanak saudara dan menghubungkan silaturrahim. 


8. Solat Hari Raya.

Para ulama berbeza pendapat tentang hukum solat hari raya. Sebahagian mengatakan hukumnya sunat muakkad/ fardhu kifayah dan fardhu ain (wajib), berdosa bagi sesiapa yang meninggalkannya. Inilah pendapat Mazhab Imam Abu Hanifah, pendapat ini dipilih juga oleh beberapa orang ulama semasa. 


Cara-caranya (kaifiyat) Solat Hari Raya.

a- Solat hari raya tidak perlu dilaungkan azan dan iqamah. Ditunaikan sebanyak dua rakaat. Rakaat pertama ada tujuh kali takbir dan rakaat kedua ada lima kali takbir. Hukum bilangan takbir ini adalah sunat bukan wajib. Jika takbir ini tertambah atau terkurang, solat hari raya tetap sah. Sunnah mengangkat tangan ketika takbir-takbir ini kerana thabit daripada para sahabat Nabi SAW.


b-Imam membaca pada rakaat yang pertama surah al-A‟la dan pada rakaat kedua membaca al-Ghasyiah berdasarkan hadis riwayat Muslim, atau membaca surah Qaf pada rakaat pertama dan membaca surah al-Qamar pada rakaat kedua, juga berdasarkan hadis riwayat Muslim. Kedua-dua bacaan ini sahih dari Nabi SAW. 

c- Dilakukan solat raya terlebih dahulu diikuti khutbah. Ini berdasarkan hadis Ibnu Abbas katanya:
“Aku menyaksikan Rasulullah SAW menunaikan solat hari raya sebelum khutbah, kemudian baginda berkhutbah.” 


d- Menyegerakan solat hari raya dan tidak memanjangkannya. Disunatkan menyegerakan solat hari raya selepas terbitnya matahari (selepas waktu larangan). Ibnu Hajar al-Asqalani telah menukilkan di dalam Fath al-Bari: “Telah sepakat para fuqaha‟ bahawa solat hari raya tidak dilaksanakan sebelum atau ketika terbit matahari, sebaliknya ia dilakukan ketika disunatkan solat sunat.” 


9. Keluar dengan berjalan kaki ke tempat solat hari raya. 

Ibnu Majah meriwayatkan daripada Ibnu Umar katanya: “Adalah Rasulullah SAW keluar ke tempat solat Hari Raya dengan berjalan dan baginda pulang darinya juga dengan berjalan.” [Sahih Ibnu Majah “Hasan”] 


Kata Ibnu al-Munzir: “Orang yang berjalan kaki ke hari raya (tempat solat hari raya) adalah lebih baik dan lebih hampir kepada maksud tawaduk dan tidak mengapa bagi sesiapa yang berkenderaan.” 

Bagi mereka yang uzur atau rumahnya jauh dari musalla / masjid tidak mengapa naik kenderaan. 

10. Wanita yang uzur juga keluar menyaksikan solat hari raya

Para wanita keluar untuk menunaikan solat hari raya adalah termasuk di dalam sunnah Nabi SAW. Untuk menyaksikan perhimpunan umat Islam dan mendengar nasihat (khutbah). 


Daripada Umm Atiyyah katanya: “Kami disuruh oleh Nabi SAW untuk mengeluarkan mereka (semua wanita) pada hari raya al-Fitri dan al-Adha; wanita yang baru baligh atau hampir baligh, wanita haid dan anak dara. Adapun wanita haid diasingkan daripada tempat sembahyang.” 

11. Zakat Fitrah. 

Nabi SAW menyuruh membayar zakat al-Fitr sebelum solat hari raya. Harus mengeluarkannya sehari atau dua hari lebih awal. Imam al-Bukhari meriwayatkan: “Adalah mereka (sahabat Nabi SAW) mengeluarkan (zakat al-Fitr) sebelum hari raya sehari atau dua hari.” 


Kesalahan yang dilakukan pada hari raya

Pergaulan/ikhtilat yang bebas pada Hari Raya. Ramai dalam kalangan kita telah mengambil mudah akan hal ini. Apabila hari raya datang, mereka menganggap hari raya adalah “hari kebebasan” iaitu hari yang terlepas daripada ikatan agama (agama asing, kita asing). Mereka menganggap hari raya ini merupakn lesen bagi mereka untuk bebas bercampur gaul, bersalaman lelaki dan perempuan yang bukan mahram (Ajnabi: yang halal dinikahi), berpakaian dan berhias sebebasnya bagi perempuan dan rumah-rumah pula dipenuhi dengan alunan muzik dan filem-filem yang melalaikan. 


Semoga ‘Eidil-Fitri yang kita sambut pada tahun ini dipenuhi dengan keberkatan dan kebajikan.

COMPULSARY RATING..Construction Industry Development Board Malaysia (CIDB) will soon introduce a Green PASS rating to contractors and developers in the country.

COMPULSARY RATING..Construction Industry Development Board Malaysia (CIDB) will soon introduce a Green PASS rating to contractors and developers in the country.



KUALA LUMPUR - Construction Industry Development Board Malaysia (CIDB) will soon introduce a Green PASS rating to contractors and developers in the country.
 
"Green PASS is an assessment that measures the actual impact of the quantity of greenhouse gas (GHG) by released by building to the environment.

"This evaluation will be done in two phases: construction phase and operational phase of the building.
"For the construction phase it contains five elements, namely assessment of the construction site, building materials, energy, water and waste.

"As for the operational phase of building the three elements that are assessed include building indoor environmental quality (IEQ), energy and water," she said.
Esmaria said this when presenting a paperwork on Green Pass evaluation to over 80 leading local construction industry in the capital recently.

However, she said, for the Green PASS evaluation in the construction phase, the evaluation can only be done once while in the building operation phase, the assessment will be done after the building is completed and occupied by at least 70 percent of the residents.
"Green PASS Rating will be the yardstick used to measure the ability of contractors to produce quality construction," she told the National Construction Portal, 1BINA.my.

It is learned that the database of Green PASS evaluation is borrowed from the United Kingdom which acts as a baseline to measure the conservation of buildings that is under construction or already completed.
Even so, Emasria says that Malaysia will build its own database as it is a dynamic data collection and not rigid.
"For example, if the study found that current energy consumption baseline is 100 kilowatt per meter and found the building in Green PASS assessment process uses only 70 kilowatts per meter which is a saving of 30 percent sure this data will be stored as a reference at any time.
"This is because the saving was calculated using carbon calculator and will be monitored from time to time for record and reference," she said.

Emasria also added that, in that particular case, contractors and developers are eligible for a diamond bonus in scoring if they uses Quality Assessment System in Construction (QLASSIC) and Safety and Health Assessment System in Construction (SHASSIC) for their construction projects.

In the meantime, CIDB previously issued the Construction Industry Standard CIS 19:2012 Draft and requested the public to provide feedback on the Green Performance Assessment System in Construction (Green PASS) draft.

 By July, CIDB will work with the Malaysian Green Tech Corporation (MGTC) and several government agencies to test the effectiveness of the Green PASS assessment to construction projects in Malaysia through a pilot project that has been agreed.

Report of the National Construction Portal, 1BINA on Green PASS can be found in http://www.1bina.my/blog/2011/12/01/konsep-bangunan-hijau-sahut-polisi-kerajaan and http://1bina.my/ blog/2012/01/16/draf-cis-19-2012-untuk-komen-umum

Fusion Power - Fusion For Energy





Fusion power is the power generated by nuclear fusion processes. In fusion reactions two light atomic nuclei fuse together to form a heavier nucleus (in contrast with fission power). In doing so they release a comparatively large amount of energy arising from the binding energy due to the strong nuclear force which is manifested as an increase intemperature of the reactants. Fusion power is a primary area of research in plasma physics.

The term is commonly used to refer to potential commercial production of net usable power from a fusion source, similar to the usage of the term "steam power." The leading designs for controlled fusion research use magnetic (tokamak design) or inertial (laser) confinement of a plasma, with heat from the fusion reactions used to operate a steam turbine which in turn drives electrical generators, similar to the process used in fossil fuel and nuclear fission power stations.
The Fusion Process
Despite being technically non-renewable, fusion power has many of the benefits of renewable energy sources (such as being a long-term energy supply and emitting no greenhouse gases) as well as some of the benefits of the resource-limited energy sources as hydrocarbons and nuclear fission (without reprocessing). Like these currently dominant energy sources, fusion could provide very high power-generation density and uninterrupted power delivery (due to the fact that it is not dependent on the weather, unlike wind and solar power).

SYRIA | SYDNEY FLASH MOB | #SILENCEISBETRAYAL

Silence is Betrayal







A movement of young people with a vision of raising awareness for justice in the world. If we remain silent, then we betray our moral obligations by not speaking out for justice and against injustice. Join the movement!

Video of the #FreeSyria flashmob held at Darling Harbour, Sydney, on the 19th May 2012.

KESAN BURUK PENGGUNAAN MINYAK MASAK BERULANG KALI



Berhati-hati, menggunakan minyak masak berulang kali adalah amalan biasa peniaga juga rakyat marhaen.

Kajian menunjukkan sejenis toksin yang dipanggil 4-hydrox-trans-2-nonenal (HNE) akan dihasilkan apabila minyak masak dipanaskan semula. 

Pengambilan makanan yang mengandungi toksin HNE (daripada minyak masak) dikaitkan menyebabkan risiko penyakit-penyakit seperti Kanser, Penyakit Kardiovaskular (penyakit berkaitan jantung dan salur darah), Strok,
 Alzheimers dan Parkinson.


Terdapat sindiket yang berleluasa membeli minyak masak terpakai, diproses dan dijual semula sebagai minyak masak. Berhati2 membeli minyak. Status halal amat diragui kerana bercampur dari pelbagai sumber dan restoran.







KPDNKK telah membongkar (‘Ops Goreng’) satu sindikit premis haram di Pandamaran Klang yang mengitar semula sisa minyak masak yang dikutip dari hotel dan restoran sekitar lembah Klang dan dicampur dengan minyak masak baru untuk dijual kepada pasaran tempatan.

Hampir 40,000kg minyak masak bernilai RM200,000 dirampas.

Kes di siasat mengikut Akta Kawalan Bekalan 1961, denda RM100,000 bagi individu dan RM250,000 bagi syarikat ATAU tiga tahun penjara ATAU kedua-duanya.
