For everything from family to computers…
Samsung reports that over this past weekend, they successfully tested their 5G network. That’s right - 5G! Using 64 different antenna elements, testers were able to pull data at speeds of up to 1Gbps, matching that of the fiber optic speeds we are now seeing in the U.S. from Google Fiber.

Composite and 3-D-printed components will mean jet engines that use 15 percent less fuel.
A new generation of engines being developed by the world’s largest jet engine maker, CFM (a partnership between GE and Snecma of France), will allow aircraft to use about 15 percent less fuel—enough to save about $1 million per year per airplane and significantly reduce carbon emissions.
Samsung reports that over this past weekend, they successfully tested their 5G network. That’s right - 5G! Using 64 different antenna elements, testers were able to pull data at speeds of up to 1Gbps, matching that of the fiber optic speeds we are now seeing in the U.S. from Google Fiber. Now that it has been tested, Samsung is ready to bring it to consumers, but their time frame doesn’t seem very rushed. How does the year 2020 sound to you?Â
Under the new platform, users can download and upload data at speeds of up to tens of gigabits per second (Gbps), compared to 75 megabits per second (Mbps) posted by the fourth-generation long-term evolution (LTE) service.
Samsung Electronics said it has successfully tested the platform using the 28 Gigahertz (GHz) waveband to transmit data at a speed of 1 Gbps.
We have heard talk of 5G and even 6G from Verizon, but that was nothing in terms of actual testing and implementation.
While 2020 might seem forever away, it’s just 7 years. Not too bad, right?

Mutations on a single gene appear to increase the risk for both an unusual sleep disorder and migraines, a team reports in Science Translational Medicine. The finding could help explain the links between sleep problems and migraines.

Disruptions of sleep are well known as migraine triggers, but now researchers have found a genetic link between the two. In studying families with lots of migraines, they also found a mutation on a gene that helps control circadian rhythms.

That is not wasabi. You are looking at green tea ice cream…sushi. No, really. That’s vinegared sushi rice (aka “sumeshi” or 酢飯), dried seaweed (“nori” or æµ·è‹”), and ice cream. The ice cream sushi is served “gunkan maki” (è»è‰¦å·») or “battleship roll sushi” style.
