King of Cheap Electricity has Fallen

Nuclear is no longer King of Cheap Electricity. New King is Renewable Energy with Solar taking the lead.

Todays nuclear was originally invented to produce ingredients for weapons and it happend to have a positive by-product "free electricity". Things have changed during the last seven decades and nuclear is now six times more expensive than solar.

By 2020 the price for solar generated electricity will be two cents per kWh. This compared to UK government is currently negotiating nuclear generated electricity from the Hinkley plant at thirteen cents per kWh starting 2025.

Renewable Energy has been subject to intensive R&D which has improved its efficiency significant. Economies of scale has given lower unit costs and combined it has made Renewable Energy very competitive.

But it is still room for improvements. Much bigger improvements than for fossil and nuclear. Therefore an Apollo like program to develop cleaner, cheaper and stable supply of energy would be beneficial.

Cheap, clean and stable supply of energy is the key to succes, growth and wealth. Just imagine how the impact of cheap electricty to water purification, desalination of water for irrigation of farming land could lift million even billions of people out of poverty and thereby create jobs, growth and prosperity world wide. 

CNN Money Article: Those new USB-C cords can fry your laptop

More proof that you get what you pay for...

Those new USB-C cords can fry your laptop
by David Goldman @DavidGoldmanCNN
February 5, 2016: 10:07 AM ET

The gadget world is slowly adopting a new power cord standard called USB Type-C. They're small, multipurpose, universal, reversible and might fry whatever gadget you plug them into.
The advantage of the new standard is that USB-C isn't owned by any one company. That means anyone can make them for cheap. The disadvantage: They might wreak havoc.

Cheap power cords are nothing new. You can get cords that meet the old micro-USB standard for smartphones for a couple bucks on Amazon (AMZN, Tech30).
But the new USB-C cords are capable of supplying way more power to a gadget than micro-USB. If you charge your smartphone by plugging your USB-C cord into your laptop, a faulty cord could drain far more power from your laptop than your computer is designed to supply, destroying it -- and your smartphone -- in an instant.
The cords are supposed to recognize what kind of device they're sucking power from. If the USB-C cord senses it's plugged into a wall socket, it should crank up the juice. If it's plugged into a laptop, it should sip power.
That's not what happened to Google (GOOGL, Tech30) engineer Benson Leung. While testing Surjtech's 3M USB-C cord, his $1,500 laptop turned into a very expensive piece of toast. The cord had been wired incorrectly,
Related: This is the new USB connector - and it's reversible!
Leung took it upon himself to review USB-C cords on Amazon to help prevent faulty cords from ruining someone else's day.
"I have gotten fed up with the early cables from 3rd party vendors that so blatantly flout the specification and I want to take them to task," Leung wrote on his Google+ page. "You may not just get weird behavior from your devices with these bad cables... What some these vendors are doing is downright dangerous."
Buying more expensive cables is generally a good idea, based on Leung's research. But an expensive cord doesn't necessarily mean that your gadgets will be safe. And blindly spending extra money on a power cord a pretty dopey way to ensure that your laptop and phone aren't going to be destroyed.
The good news is that the USB-C standards-setting group, the USB Implementers Forum, is issuing a seal of approval for safe USB-C cords. Since those logos don't show up anywhere on Amazon's website, your safest bet might be buying cords at a physical store, such as Staples (SPLS) or Best Buy (BBY), where you can see the logo on the box.
And if you're an iPhone owner, you're safe for now. Lightning cords are certified by Apple (AAPL, Tech30) (that's why they're so expensive), and Apple hasn't yet adopted the USB-C standard for its iPhones.
Safe powering!

Laptop Care: The Basics

Don't move the laptop while it's on.
Every computer repair expert I've ever asked, "What is the most common problem people have with laptops?", the answer is the same: hard drive failure. Think of the hard drive like a record player; the player spins the record and a little needle reads it. When you jostle around your laptop while the hard drive is spinning, the needle is scratching your record! Sometimes, if you're lucky, a computer repair specialist can manage to get most of your stuff back, but it's most likely toast. Whenever you pick up your laptop to move it, put it into sleep mode first and wait until you hear the hard drive stop spinning before you pick it up to move it. (Sleep mode is a way to temporarily shut off your computer without losing anything that you have open). If you must move it while it is running, hold it straight and carefully. Laptops are beginning to feature solid state drives, which means no moving parts, so this issue will become less frequent.

Close your laptop from the top, not the sides.
When closing your laptop by putting the monitor down from the side, you will wear the hinges and can damage your screen. Close the laptop by bringing it down gently from the top middle.

Keep it cool.
Heat is one of the computer's worst enemies. If you put your laptop in your lap, on a pillow, in bed, or using it for heavy computing, you risk it overheating, which can damage the motherboard. To keep it cool, get a cooling pad. A cooling pad is a thin pad you put under your laptop that has a fairly quiet fan inside. Also try to keep your laptop in as cool a place as possible. Be sure the fan vents on the back of the laptop are free of obstruction. Your laptop is at higher risk of overheating if you often use it for heavy computing processes such as games, video editing, or art. Careful of temperature extremes; bringing your laptop inside on a cold winter day and immediately turning it on can cause condensation (moisture) inside the laptop.

Keep it clean.
Dust is another one of the computer's worst enemies. Dust can build up inside your laptop, so be sure to keep your workspace clean. Consider getting a can of compressed air, which has a long thin nozzle at the top that sprays air to blow away dirt and dust from your computer. You can also get a cheap, soft watercolor or makeup brush only for cleaning dust off of things with. Keeping your hands clean will also reduce grease stains. Don't forget to dust your USB ports and CD drive too. Never use water to clean your laptop, even while it is off, this will destroy it. Should you need to use water on a small brush or wipe to clean something off your keyboard, be sure it's only slightly damp and turn your laptop off first.

Plug the power cord into the outlet first, then plug the other end into the laptop.
If you plug the power cord into the laptop first, you run the risk of shocking your laptop. You will also want to unplug your laptop from the outlet during a lightning storm in case of a damaging power surge or outage. Be wary of static shock too; touch a nearby metal object to release any potential static electricity.

Be mindful of plugging devices into the correct ports.
Sometimes, we might lazily try to plug in a USB mouse or our iPod into the side of our computer, blindly trying to find the port. Be careful; if you accidentally jam a plug where it's not supposed to go, it can damage the socket, making that port useless.

Keep it in a carrying case.
Carrying around your laptop in a proper bag or case greatly reduces bumping and chance of dropping it.

Get adequate virus protection.
Viruses are devastating for all types of computers and don't think that just because you have a Mac that you can't get viruses; with the number of Mac users on the rise, viruses and trojans have been developed that can hijack those operating systems as well.

Clean out temporary files.
Though you know to clean our your temporary Internet files and cookies, this isn't enough. All computers store data on absolutely everything you've done on your computer. For me, temporary files from art and video editing programs take up a lot of space. I recommend the free program CCleaner, which can take care of these hidden files you can't get rid of yourself. Note that it is not an anti-virus program. You can get CCleaner here on piriform.com.

That's all for now! Thank you for reading and I hope you found these tips helpful. Check out more of my tips on my blog at www.brookescovil.com.

Still not got a laptop for working with the DCS?

What is the DCS?

The DCS is the Digital Case System. This is part of the drive by the Government to revolutionise the Criminal Justice System and introduce digital working. The System went live at various stages in early 2016, but is now live across the nation.

Amazing, as a Crown Court Advocate, I still see Counsel at Court with little more than an iPad or other tablet and it always surprises me that people feel comfortable using such a device exclusively.

As a lawyer, and an out-of-the-closet geek, here are my top tips for choosing your DCS enabled machine.

Steve Jobs or Bill Gates?

Cats or dogs? Tea or coffee? PC or Mac? Some labels define us and our choice in tech is just one example. I have never really under the lawyers' love affair with iThings but most robing rooms I visit look like budget Apple Stores. I personally don't like Macs. I don't like the way they work and I just can't get on with them. I've been using Windows since v3.1 (and that's a long time) so I must confess by bias. People tell me that "Macs just work" and are easy to use.  Give me a Start button any day of the week!

The cheapest MacBook will set you back over £1,000 (http://www.apple.com/uk/shop/buy-mac/macbook) and the MacBook Air is just under £750 (http://www.apple.com/uk/shop/buy-mac/macbook-air). You could save yourself a fortune by going for Windows Ultrabook instead... it just won't look as good when you're in Starbucks.

Windows Version

Assuming you are going with a Windows PC, you may still have some options with which version of Windows to go with. Some units still ship with Windows 7 and this is still incredibly popular due to its proven credentials and IT department pleasing reliability. Windows 8/8.1 is still out there and is shipped as standard on older stock models. There is then of course Windows 10. I personally love it (I loved 8.1 too) and offers a really great work space whilst not being overly dissimilar to Windows 7. Most Windows 8/8.1 machines will come with a free upgrade to Windows 10. These all come in 32 bit and 64 bit varients. 64 bit is regarded as as the leader but will require more RAM.

Size Matters

For me, the most important consideration for choosing a laptop for use with the DCS is the size of the screen. Forget those 10" netbooks from 2005, you need to think bigger. Your desktop replacement laptop with the 15.6" screen might be a little imposing. A 14" screen for me is the right balance between size and usability.

RAM/Processors

Unless you opt for an Apple device, you have a whole host of options and combinations here. Unless you're going to have a quick blast on Call of Duty between cases, you're probably not going to have to go high end with your laptop's engine. Consider machines with Intel i3 or i5 processors as they offer great multi-tasking capabilities whilst still being grounded on affordability. Intel Celeron processors are not getting quite aged and the netbook and tablet friendly Atoms offer decent processing at low prices (and power consumption) - but still not as good as the i3. Money no object? Go for an i7.

Whilst the processor does all the thinking for your machine, it gets information from the RAM so it's important not to scrimp on here. Cheaper machines will come with 2GB but these should be avoided. Consider 4GB as a minimum to avoid embarrassing delays when addressing his Lordship on the Sentencing Guidelines. Going for a 64 bit Operating System? 4GB really is the minimum!

Touchy Feely

For me, a touch screen is a must; and sadly this cancels out your Apple offerings. Need to move the page? Just swipe the screen. Need to highlight the statement? Done. No more poking around on a tiny trackpad or carrying a mouse in to court.

DVD or DVDon't?

My answer to this is simply; avoid a machine with a DVD drive built in unless you're happy carrying around a paving slab of a machine. The reason is simply. It is quite rare to need a DVD at court these days. I'd say 1/5 of my cases require a DVD which means I would be carrying around an unnecessarily heavy machine for the sake of it. Get a slimmer DVDless machine and save yourself some labour. Need a DVD player for that one case? Invest in an external DVD player for £15-£25 for those occasions you do need one.

What would I get?

If it I was down to me, I'd go for the brand spanking new Microsoft Surface Book. Whilst not cheap by any stretch of the imagination, the latest device by Microsoft is a powerhouse of a machine which offers touchscreen with smart pen intigation (great for note taking). The detachable screen makes it a great tablet too. But at £1,300 a pop, (http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msuk/en_GB/pdp/productID.332604800?icid=en_GB_Homepage_Hero_Surface_Book_15042016) it is a serious investment.

The Microsoft Surface 4 Pro is a cheaper option starting at £750 (http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msuk/en_GB/pdp/productID.326546100?icid=en_GB_cat_modG_SP4_010516) but you'll need a keyboard which will set you back another £109.

Are we too cheap? Why focusing on price could be dangerous to science.

I was inspired to write this post by an email I received from a colleague, as well as some experiences I have had over the past year. For those of you who don't know, I recently left academia after 15 years, and now work in sales for a global biotechnology company. This is not something I ever could have imagined myself doing, but the experience and skills I have gained during this time have been invaluable, especially considering how green I was (and still am) coming into my position. Although some will undoubtedly disagree, the purpose of this post is not to sell a product, rather to bring an issue to light that I do not believe is discussed often enough in science.

When you talk to most scientists about a research product, especially those in an academic setting, the first words out of their mouth are usually "how much does it cost?" I used to be the same way. I believe this stems from a variety of factors, including the fact that, by nature, we as humans want to know we are getting the best deal. In science, this is even more important due to the current academic funding environment. Principal investigators want (and need) to stretch their budget, so they make sure their students and postdocs know that they need to bargain with everyone to get the best price. And there is nothing wrong with that.Or is there?

The problem arises when the sole focus becomes to find the lowest price. Whether you are looking through a catalog of vendors, or within an online marketplace, this too often becomes the single most important and determining factor. And sometimes, quite often actually, you get what you pay for. Cheap products are often cheap for a reason. Innovative and quality products take time and effort to develop, both which cost money.

Let's use automobiles as a classic example. Normally, one would not purchase a car solely based on price. While you may have a price range in mind, you then do your homework: you look at safety ratings, performance, reviews, and recalls. You ask your friends, and then come in for a test drive. Only after all of that research and information-finding do you begin to haggle with the dealer or shop around. Another newer example is cell phones. Are Apple or Samsung the least expensive brands? Most definitely not. However you are willing to pay for the innovation and quality that most other cell phone companies cannot provide.

Science needs to be the same way, whether you are shopping for centrifuges, cell culture media, laminar flow hoods, or antibodies. Of course, price is a factor. But what about quality, performance, or reproducibility? What about product innovation and technical support? Do the results of your experiments matter to you? The same type of low-cost/low-quality companies that exist in the automobile and cell phone industries exist in science. And you may be using their products just because you want to save a few bucks.

At the end of your PhD or postdoc, there isn't an award given out to the person who saves the lab the most money. You get recognized (whether it be by publications or your career track) by the quality and reproducibility of your work. And this is something that will live on forever; much longer than your career. This will become your scientific legacy, and it should be viewed as such. Don't sell yourself short and fall into the trap of just selecting the least expensive product. Always consider multiple factors, and only then, make your ultimate decision based on all of them. After all, you are a scientist. Do your research. It may take a little time and effort, but spending it now will save you a lot more in the long run...maybe even your career.

Generic doesn't mean Cheap

There is a common misconception in the world of pharmacy that “generic” means “cheap.”  While these two words have typically been synonymous with each other over the past 20 years, we are seeing more and more generic drugs creep into the range of $100, $250 and even as much as $1,000+/mo. 

The recent news about Turing Pharmaceuticals CEO Martin Shkreli raising the price of a 60-year old generic drug (daraprim) by 5000% is just one of the many cases where your company and your employees may be subjected to high cost generics.  

Our data and patented software shows this same practice is happening more and more with common drugs used for blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes and will mean billions in new costs to those paying the bill, namely self-funded organizations and their health plan members.  Our data has shown price variations on statins, ARB’s, oral hypoglycemics and other generic medications in excess of 2000%. 

So who’s profiting and who's to blame?  It depends on the case and can include parties other than the pharmaceutical company producing the medication.  As the medication goes through the supply chain, there is opportunity to touch and influence its price along the way. 

While “generic utilization” rates have been a telling statistic when looking at how your overall trend was doing, with the changes in the market, even companies touting 90+% generic utilization rates are exposed to much higher costs than they should be.  As your company develops a strategy with your consultant or broker to address the rising costs of your prescription benefit, having a specific strategy to combat this practice becomes more important by the day. 

Putting together a strategy that empowers your members to be active and savvy shoppers on the most predictable and repeated transaction in healthcare, pharmacy, is a great way to begin changing behavior and save money. Many people don't realize there are options out there and they really can save money. Whether it’s using a free drug price lookup tool like Medfisher.com or our proactive, patented and proven enterprise solution at Rx Savings Solutions --- choices are available. Consider pharmacy as a great segue into a greater healthcare consumerism strategy.
