App That Can Hijack Planes

http://www.cnn.com/2013/04/11/tech/mobile/phone-hijack-plane/index.html?c=tech

A hacker takes advantage of a phone's communication interface to control a plane's controls. Due to the fact that today's planes have a lack of security, it's easy to use this hack on a live airplane. While it hasn't been used on a plane, simulations have showed that it's possible for this app to work. It's recommended that planes beef up their security before another person with malicious purposes get's their hands on them.

Bitcoin and Recently Recent News About The Concept

Bitcoin is a concept created by an anonymous hacker about four years ago.  It is a purely digital currency.  The thing that's so wonderful about it is that there is no government authority over the currency, leaving all the responsibility up to the traders.  Like all currencies, Bitcoin must be backed up by something, and it is.  Coins are created through "mining".  It's like mining for gold, instead you are mining for "blocks".  A block is created when a certain mathematical question is solved.  The payout for solving a block is automatically adjusted, so that in the first four years, 10,500,000 Bitcoins are created.  This amount is halved every four years, so that the total Bitcoins in existence won't exceed 21,000,000.

The recently recent news about the Bitcoins is that 1 Bitcoin now translates to about 40 USD, after a Bitcoin market boost.  Many find this boost outrageous, but that's the way it is. The Bitcoin currency is flourishing, and personally, I believe it's the way of the future.

Time Travel

Time Travel.

If I were to time travel to any time and be able to come back, I would either go to the past or the future.  Any time before July 1998 is completely off limits.  I was born on April 6 1998, you can probably understand why I can't go before that time.  Any change can mess everything up, and I wouldn't be born.  If I can go to the past, I would travel back to when I started failing in school.  I'd give myself a helping hand so I can pass with flying colors.  That'd be pretty cool.  If I were to travel to the future, I'd travel about 20 years, experience things, bring back cool future stuff.  When I go back to the past, I tell the important people, like CEOs of mass corporations and even the president to change certain things if things aren't perfect in 20 years.  

If I Were a Teacher

    If I were a teacher, the class that I would teach would be teaching would incorporate computers, obviously.  I would most likely have something like a computer literacy class.  With today's society, everything revolves around technology.  I would like the newer generation of people to be able to control devices with extensive knowledge of the subject.  My class would be hands on.  I feel that everything must be hands-on for a student to learn it.  Lecturing is boring. I know that I would never learn things if I were being lectured.  It hurts me that some of my fellow peers don't grasp computers, and that they need outside help every time they have a problem.  The final test would be a computer literacy test.

The Razer Edge Pro Gaming System

Article

The idea of PC portable gaming was an idea with too many hoops to jump through.  Laptops are considered portable gaming PCs, however, the idea of something as large as a tablet was unheard of.  Razer changed this wit the Razer Edge, (previously known as Project Fiona).  The highest model sports an Intel Core i7 Dual Core CPU with a GT 640m.  This tablet also has 8GB of RAM.  This tablet is surely better than most home desktop computers.  The Razer Edge can play full fledged PC games without optimization.  While 7 inches can be considered bulky for a portable device, the Razer Edge is the most portable PC gaming device out there.
