Second Signal From Missing Flight MH370

There is a reported second pulse found signaling from the missing flight MH370 that disappeared March 8th 2014. Australian officials say that the second signal detected by a Chinese ship aiding in the search efforts of the missing airplane is consistent with those of the aircraft's black box. Australian and US officials have not yet verified the pulses are coming from the missing flight. Only god knows, hopefully this mystery will be solved soon and the family member of the missing aircrafts passengers will finally be able to know the truth.
Battery power is fading in the black box recorder and only a little bit of time is left to be able to find it.

Saturn's Moon Candidate For Life

One of Saturn's 50 moons, Enceladus is now considered a top candidate for life.

Buried underneath miles of ice, there is a liquid sea the size of Lake Superior. Scientists had previously suspected Enceladus may have an underground ocean. 

This latest study calculated the density of material in different parts of Enceladus after three gravity-measuring flybys. 

Those measurements revealed there's something underneath Enceladus' ice in the south that's denser than the ice. 

Liquid water is the most likely explanation, says David Stevenson, a planetary scientist at the California Institute of Technology who also worked on the study.

Windows 8.1 Update 1 Features Reveiled

Microsoft release's the first update to the Windows 8.1 Operating System. Windows 8.1 Update 1 is set to be released April 8, 2014.

Some of the new features:

Boot straight to the Desktop: As was previously rumored, Windows 8.1 Update 1 will allow users to boot and resume straight to the classic desktop UI, allowing them to bypass the tiled Modern UI altogether. This will likely be a welcome feature considering that the Modern portion of Windows 8 hasn’t been well received since it debuted back in late 2012.

Changes to the Taskbar: With Windows 8.1 Update 1, you can use both desktop programs and Windows Store apps from the classic desktop UI. Windows Store apps will also work on the desktop UI’s Taskbar as well, and a new button on the Taskbar will permit you to access the Windows Store without forcing you to dive into the Modern UI to do so. With Windows 8.1 Update 1, the Taskbar will be accessible while using Modern apps by moving your mouse pointer to the bottom of the screen.

Tweaks to the Modern UI Start screen: The Modern UI Start screen will also receive some tweaks, including dedicated Power and Search buttons. The addition of a dedicated power button in the Start Screen will allow users to power their PCs off without having to open the Charms menu, shaving some seconds off the process of shutting down their systems. Newly installed Modern apps will be labeled “New,” and will pull up a drop-down menu when right-clicked, as opposed to the bar on the bottom of the screen.

Cheap Upgrades to Help Boost PC Speed

Does your computer feel like it's running slow as molasses? Well I have some cheap or free solutions to help speed up your pc's performance.

1. First step I would suggest is to get rid of all the junk. 

Download this free software called PC Decrapifier. It gets rid of preinstalled programs and junk files that aren't needed or really necessary quickly and easily.

Another nice program that I personally use and will allow you to do this is called CCleaner. CCleaner also gets rid of the same junk files but can run a bit deeper scans than PC Decrapifier can. SlimCleaner is also another useful software program that works just the same.

You can download them free using these links and give them a test.

2. While not free unless you know someone that has some extra RAM, it's a quick and cheap way to upgrade your desktop PC or notebook PC. You can purchase some on the internet as long as you know the right size you would need to install and you also would need to know if you have extra RAM slots inside your PC.

Head over to Kingston to use its search feature to find the right size you need.

3. Defragmenting your hard drive is really a good thing to do periodically.

Defraging your drive helps by moving the empty disk space together sort of like, squishing the used space together so that the hard drive can run the processes it needs to run quickly.

I would suggest to do this at least once a week since stuff usually gets downloaded, moved around and deleted all the time.

It can be accessed from:

• Windows Vista/7: Start > All Programs > Accessories >System Tools > Disk Defragmenter
• Windows 8: Open the Charms bar and search for "Optimize Drives" and then click on Defragment and optimize your drives

Regular updates for the drivers should be manually checked to make sure that the drivers are up to date and current too.

I hope you enjoyed this quick guide and it helps out some people.
