"Use of the new backlight was expanded to include the new 17-, 19-, 20-, and 26-inch lcd TV modules. The brightness of lcd modules has not been affected by the change, but the amount of mercury in the lamps has been halved. The result has been a reduction in resources used, as well as hazardous substances in the lcd modules. Another example is complete removal of hexavalent chromium in screws." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"Early LCDs were monochrome—usually shades of gray—but by 1979 a method had been developed to make a color lcd, leading to a television set with a tiny color lcd display in 1985. As LCDs improved, they began to be used for computer monitors instead of CRTs and for flat-screen television. A different concept, the plasma display, was conceived in 1964 at the University of Illinois, but took manyyears to History of Computing The history of computing contains four distinct generations, along with a rich prehistory of mechanical computing devices." - The New York Times, The New York Times Guide to Essential Knowledge: A Desk Reference for the Curious Mind (Get the book.)

"Gene chips contain hundreds Gene chip or even thousands of tiny wells, like pixels on an lcd screen. To the bottom of each of these wells, a particular unzipped strand is attached during the process of manufacturing the chip. These "sticky" half-molecules seek their counterparts, and by examination of which ones are able to bond, researchers can identify exactly which DNA strands in a sample are active. A gene chip yields results that are also somewhat like an lcd screen with thousands of pixels. Each pixel is a different color." - Dawson Church, The Genie in Your Genes: Epigenetic Medicine and the New Biology of Intention (Get the book.)

"The result has been a reduction in resources used, as well as hazardous substances in the lcd modules. Another example is complete removal of hexavalent chromium in screws. Hazardous hexavalent chromium was previously added to screws to make them rust resistant, but Samsung Electronics completely switched over to using the benign trivalent chromium in 2004, increasing the environment friendliness of its lcd products.69 Visit www.samsung.com." - David Steinman, Safe Trip to Eden: Ten Steps to Save Planet Earth from the Global Warming Meltdown (Get the book.)

"Neon signs blur into lcd cuneiforms. Closing my eyes as we race through the darkness, weaving in and out of traffic at 120 miles an hour, I imagine my body splayed across the road like a dissected market frog. I'm only passing through Bangkok, on my way down to a couple of islands in southern Thailand. Still curious about the fruitarian Punatics I heard about in Hawaii, I've arranged a meeting with the legendary duri-narian Shunyam Nirav, creator ofdurianpalace.com. He spends half the year in a two dollars per night beach hut on a remote stretch of Koh Phangan." - Adam Leith Gollne, The Fruit Hunters: A Story of Nature, Adventure, Commerce and Obsession (Get the book.)

"Just behind her, I see a blond teenage girl proudly clutching the brand new Harry Potter book, while her young brother has his head down low over his prized Game Boy, his small thumbs quivering furiously on either side of the tiny lcd screen. And just beyond them is a young woman in her twenties, with a shaved head, wearing the purple and yellow robes of a Buddhist monk. Next to her is a nun, who has eyes of aquamarine. I wonder what they are laughing about. And in the corner, two young men with dark hair and straggly beards are talking to each other intently." - Robin, Dr. Kelly, The Human Antenna: Reading the Language of the Universe in the Songs of Our Cells (Get the book.)

"If possible, use an active-matrix lcd flat display, which is sharper and brighter than a typical CRT-based display. Q Get sufficient sleep. Fatigue promotes eyestrain. Q If pain is severe and comes on suddenly, and especially if vision is disturbed or the pain is accompanied by nausea and vomiting, seek professional help at once. This may be a sign of an acute glaucoma attack. (See glaucoma in Part Two.) FLOATERS Bits of cellular debris floating within the eye are commonly referred to as floaters." - Phyllis A.

"Double Vision, from Second Sight Surveillance, is a head-mounted camera hooked to a portable hard-disk system, with an optional lcd display for on-the-spot review. Looking a bit like a small gun stuck to the side of the head, it's similar to the Deja View but aimed at a very different audience: military, police, and security outfits. Anyone who dismisses these devices because of their obvious limitations (bulky camera and cable, clumsy belt-pack storage, limited battery life, inability to wirelessly send signals) hasn't been paying attention." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.) "The prototype "green machine," unveiled in Tunisia at a United Nation's technology summit, runs on Linux software and sports a color lcd screen, 500-megahertz processor, wireless broadband, DVD drive, and 500 megabytes of flash memory. Mesh networking capability allows the machine to communicate with its nearest neighbors, creating an ad hoc local network. A hand crank allows users to charge the battery far away from the electrical grid. The goal for production models is for one minute of cranking to generate enough battery power for a hundred minutes of use." - Alex Steffen, Worldchanging: A User's Guide for the 21st Century (Get the book.)

"At first, I was anxious about not being able to check my e-mail that morning, and adding to my initial distress, my cell phone lcd read "No service." But then I began to mellow. By the time I got home, I felt renewed as a human being. The experience reminded me how important it is to occasionally disconnect from the demands and pressures of life. Meanwhile, as I looked at the world around me, I became dismayed by the increasing polarization in politics and religion." - Jack Challem, The Food-Mood Solution: All-Natural Ways to Banish Anxiety, Depression, Anger, Stress, Overeating, and Alcohol and Drug Problems--and Feel Good Again (Get the book.)

"A gene chip yields results that are also somewhat like an lcd screen with thousands of pixels. Each pixel is a different color. Researchers can note which pixels change color when exposed to a sample, and are thus able to "read" the gene chip to find out which molecules have been able to bond with a counterpart in the sample. This sophisticated technology allows researchers to identify DNA states, and changes in DNA, in a variety of conditions. ¦fill H 11 IB I UHH ill IB ?

"Many of us spend hours a day at the personal computer and unless you have an lcd screen that means a considerable dose of electromagnetic radiation including, on some models, soft x-rays. The doses may be small but are cumulative. Try this revealing test Try this simple test with your cell phone, if you use one. Put it into the microwave oven, close the door and dial it. If the phone rings |and it will!) the shielding on your microwave oven is shown to be worthless and you should get rid of it, for safety's sake. If microwaves can get IN, microwaves can get OUT." - Keith Scott-Mumby, Virtual Medicine: A New Dimension in Energy Healing (Get the book.)

"The typical laptop computer of the late 1990s featured a 14-inch lcd screen that folded over a standard-size keyboard into a 4-inch-thick package that weighed just a few pounds. This new portable PC operated on either AC or battery power, with the built-in batteries lasting for three hours or more—enough power to last through a typical plane flight. Handheld Computing Handheld computers, also called palmtops or personal digital assistants (PDAs), incorporate many of the essential functions of a laptop computer, but with a much smaller screen and without a keyboard." - The New York Times, The New York Times Guide to Essential Knowledge: A Desk Reference for the Curious Mind (Get the book.) "Priced at $100, GameBoy featured a black-and-white lcd screen, and came prepackaged with a Tetris cartridge. With more than 100 million units shipped in various configurations, GameBoy holds the honor of being the world's all-time best-selling video game system. eime focus Does Science Matter? By WILLIAM J. BROAD and JAMES GLANZ Through its rituals of discovery, science has extended life, conquered disease and offered new sexual and commercial freedoms. It has pushed aside demigods and demons and revealed a cosmos more intricate and awesome than anything produced by pure imagination." - The New York Times, The New York Times Guide to Essential Knowledge: A Desk Reference for the Curious Mind (Get the book.)
