Apple Cut Watch Health Features Due to Unpredictable Sensors

Apple in fact wanted its smartwatches to focus greatly on health-related features, but the company was forced to changed direction mid-development. According to The Wall Street Journal (The Wall Street Journal is an American English-language international daily newspaper with a special emphasis on business and economic news), the company originally visualize a device that can monitor heart rate, blood pressure and stress levels (based on the conductivity of the skin). Unfortunately, the sensors they tested just didn't pass muster, which isn't entirely surprising, since we've reviewed plenty of wearables with patchy heart rate monitors in the past. The company's engineers found that hairy arms, dry skin and even how tightly the watch is worn can influence the results, and they did not find a solution in time.

Apple Watch became known as a black hole within the company, the The Wall Street Journal’s sources said, as it continued sucking in resources for four years despite all the failures during testing. Its development slowed down once the company understands that a health-focused watch that meets its standards will be very hard to build at this time. The lineup of watches due out in April are a lot different from the original one Apple envisioned and are more of an iPhone companion with a much simpler pulse monitor and pedometer.

Still, the company's expecting to sell a ton, reportedly ordering around 6 million units from its Asian suppliers just for the first quarter. Half of those are the entry-level Apple Watch Sports, while the mid-tier stainless steel model makes up a third of that number. As for Cupertino's original vision, well, there's always a chance that we'll see it come to life in the coming years. The company has a good track record of substantially improving its devices after a debut model appears -- the first iPhone didn't have 3G.

NBC is Streaming Live to iOS and Android but only on Selected Areas

ABC (American Broadcasting Company) an American commercial broadcast television network, was the first big network first out of the gate with a 24/7 live streaming app, but CBS (American commercial broadcast television network) and now NBC (The National Broadcasting Company is an American commercial broadcast television and radio network) are close behind with their own versions. NBC spin out "TV Everywhere" streaming on its website in December, and recently it's pushed upgrades on Android and iOS that bring the network channel directly to mobile screens,  but only if you have a participating cable or satellite provider's login. Even that's not enough, sorry to say, since it's only accessible in areas where NBC owns the local station.

There is, however, an expanded video on-demand library including a new classic section stocked with The A-Team, Miami Vice, Knight Rider and a few others to go along with full episodes and clips of currently airing stuff (all the ones we watched had ads inserted, FYI). The apps work on tablets and phones for either platform with streaming over WiFi or mobile connections, and on iOS it has support for AirPlay (there's nothing about Chromecast, yet). We are checking with NBC about any other features, but for now you can check the App Store and Google Play to download them.

Upcoming Sony SmartEyeglass Developer Edition

Sony SmartEyeglass Developer Edition Display

Sony SmartEyeglass Developer Edition Will Launch In March to Enhance Your World

Despite the questionable future for the most well known smart eye-wear product, Google Glass, there seems to be plenty of companies looking to fill the empty space that Google has at least temporarily left behind.

Sony is looking to get their take on smart headgear out the door in early March, but to be clear, this is strictly hardware for developers, and unlike Google Glass, this says so right in the name: “Sony SmartEyeglass Developer Edition.” Sony states that it is primarily looking for industrial uses for this product (which does not really dig with their marketing images), but that other use cases are not to be ruled out.

At launch you will be able to purchase the glasses direct from Sony for $845 plus tax. A steal when compared to Glass, but what exactly are you getting for that??

As be suitable a developer product, this is quite an early stage for Sony’s glasses. They are significantly larger than you would imagine they’ll need to be for a consumer launch, and a cable runs down from them to a central hub with a microphone, speaker, NFC, touch sensors and the battery. That second part could simply be a different philosophy from the completely self-contained Google Glass, but it’s hard to imagine anyone wearing something as clunky looking as this out in public.

Focusing on the actual glasses, they are breaking quite a little bit from Google Glass in that they are full lens glasses that overlay images directly in front of the user. Google Glass created a display that was out of the normal field of vision for the user. It’s actually much more akin to the original video that Google showed for Glass than what Glass eventually became. The big warning here is that the SmartEyeglass display is a monochrome green with 8-bit grayscale that is capable of 15 frames per second, so nothing too complicated is going to be passing across your vision.

The glasses do feature a 3-megapixel camera for stills and video, but no sound can be captured with the video.

Battery duration will be 150 minutes of usage or 80 minutes with camera use. So like Google Glass, battery life will probably present a pretty serious ache point for anyone using this all day.

The glasses will be compatible with any device running Android 4.4 or above.

I am really very happy to see that other companies trying at the smart glasses concept. Regardless of how silly they may look now, having spent the better part of two years with Glass, I have little hope that something like them is in our future.

GREEN TEA CAN MAKE YOUR HEART STRONGER:

According to studies, green tea can help improve endothelial function rather quickly after consumption. But you must resist the urge to add milk to your tea if you are drinking for improved cardiovascular health! That’s because the caseins in milk may actually decrease the cardio protective benefits you get from tea according to one study.

Employees Types in Organization

In any organization, the employees can be classified into three categories, viz. Willing, Neutral and Impossible.

1. Willing employees: 

They are the ones who will work willingly on whatever is given to them with a zeal of 5 to 9. When they come to work place they mentally throw away their watches. It is very important for you to ensure that there enthusiasm stays that way.

2. Neutral Employees: 

They are the ones who will go along with their co-employees. If they happen to be with willing ones, they will do well, and vice versa.

3. Impossible employees 

They are the ones who create problems in any set-up. Don’t not get upset when a “difficult to-get-along-with” employee comes in contact with you. Be patient. Be tolerant. Be ready for disappointment. Do whatever you can, in a positive manner.

Why not open a branch?” Florist, “Sir, then what?” Henry Ford, “You will then have several branches in Detrout.” Florist, “Sir then what”, Henry Ford “Then all Over USA.” Florist, “Sir then What?”, Henry Ford, angrily, “Damn it, you will then be able to relax.” Florist, “That is What I am doing even now.”, Ford walked away sheepishly.
