Gold Vendor Machine!

             Hello my dear friends today we are going to discuss about the ATM machine that provides you GOLD, which enable the public to purchase and take immediate delivery of small gold bars and other gold products at the push of a button, were launched internationally in 2010.

            Ex Oriente Lux AG, which designed and operates the machines, has its headquarters in Reutlingen in the state of Baden-Württemberg, 200 km south of Frankfurt.

            Gold ATMS are now available at high security locations in 7 countries: Germany, Italy, Portugal, Switzerland, United Kingdom, USA and United Arab Emirates.

First 3D Printer in 2014 by NASA!

      US space agency NASA is planning to launch a 3D printer into space next year to help astronauts manufacture spare parts and tools in zero gravity. It will be the first time a 3D printer has been used in space and could help reduce the costs of future missions.

The device will have to withstand lift-off vibrations and operate safely in an enclosed space station environment.

NASA has chosen technology start-up Made in Space to make the microwave oven-sized printer.

"Imagine an astronaut needing to make a life-or-death repair on the International Space Station," said Aaron Kemmer, the company's chief executive.

"Rather than hoping that the necessary parts and tools are on the station already, what if the parts could be 3D printed when they needed them?"

In 1970, Apollo 13 astronauts had to cobble together a home-made carbon dioxide filter using a plastic bag, a manual cover and gaffer tape. 

A 3D printer might have solved the problem in minutes.

"If you want to be adaptable, you have to be able to design and manufacture on the fly, and that's where 3D printing in space comes in,'' said Dave Korsmeyer, director of engineering at NASA's Ames Research Center.

NASA is also experimenting with 3D printing small satellites that could be launched from the International Space Station and then transmit data to earth. Additive manufacturing, as 3D printing is also known, builds up objects layer by layer, commonly using polymer materials. But laser-melted titanium and nickel-chromium powders are now being used to build much stronger components.

In August, NASA successfully tested a metal 3D printed rocket component as part of its drive to reduce the costs of space exploration.

BMW 1 Series sedan!

     Hello my dear friends    As BMW's 3 Series continues to grow bigger and shift upmarket with each generation, so grows the void that could easily accommodate a smaller BMW sedan. A3 sedan. 

 

           Given the positive acclaim garnered by the new Audi A3 sedan and Mercedes-Bens CLA, BMW must be itching to get in on the action - although its "better late than never" entry is still a good four years away. 

           Having spoken to a company insider, Autoweek revealed that BMW has given the green light to a four-door version of the 1-Series, which will see light of day in 2017. However, here comes the kicker: the publication also reports that the new entry-level sedan will be based on BMW's new front-wheel drive architecture.  

HUH? A FRONT-WHEEL DRIVE BMW?

       Of course, traditional BMW petrol-heads who enjoy finely-balanced rear-wheel drive road holding will no doubt cry blue murder, but then consider that 80 percent of 1 Series owners think their car is front-wheel driven - a statistic that BMW openly admitted to a few years back.

                

        No doubt the 1 Series sedan would aim to be a spiritual successor to the E30 3 Series of the eighties. Minus the rear-wheel drive entertainment factor of course.

Although the imminent 2-Series two-door range will be rear-wheel driven, it's already well known that BMW will soon launch a front-wheel drive 1 Series GT MPV, based on the Active Tourer concept . Now all the signs are pointing towards the 2017 sedan and 2018 hatchback also going the FWD route.

AWD TOO... AND M-POWER

        Thankfully, this architecture allows for all-wheel drive versions, which at least opens the door for high-performance 'M' models. 

         Just don't expect a lusty straight-six to feature. According to Autocar, such models are set to follow the times with a highly-tuned 2-litre four-cylinder motor. And if AMG can squeeze 265kW from an engine of that size for its A45 AMG, surely BMW is not going to aim much lower than that mark.

         As for the more humble 1 Series sedan and hatch models, our money is on BMW's upcoming 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbopetrol being the mainstay of the range. A lot gutsier than it sounds, the engine can be tuned to produce between 90kW and 165kW. 

         Of course, these smaller engines will reap an economy advantage just like the front-wheel drive layout will increase interior space and reduce production costs. 

         Yet one question remains: does BMW deserve a thumbs-down for straying too far from its traditional values or a pat on the back for boldly following the times? Tell us what you think…

HTC One Mini in Gold Apperrs Online!

          Hello my dear friends, let us now talk about the most awaited HTC One mini is now ready to follow the footsteps of its big brother – HTC One. Following the gold edition of HTC One, now the gold version of the One mini has appeared in a set of photographs leaked today. These images shows a 24-carat gold edition of HTC One mini, which is reportedly being made by a third-party jeweler.

 

         As this is not coming from HTC directly, the company won’t be selling it officially. The gold version of HTC One mini will be joining the HTC One gold edition by Gold Genie, which is currently on pre-order for £1,895 ($3,015). There is no word on the pricing or availability of HTC One mini gold version but we expect to hear more in the coming days.

 

  

        Both HTC One and One mini gold edition are quite different from Apple iPhone 5S golden version, which unlike HTC One phones is not made of pure gold and has reportedly been a huge success in the Asian markets. HTC has however been rumored to be working on gold-colored (similar to iPhone 5S) version of HTC One but there is not much information regarding the same right now.
