Alleged OnePlus 3 Image Renders, Specifications Surface Online

Rumours for OnePlus' next flagship smartphone, the OnePlus 3, have started brewing. Some handset render images have surfaced on the Web alongside some alleged specifications from a tipster.
According to a tipster named Upleaks (via Android Headlines), the OnePlus 3 handset will pack the 64-bit quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 SoC and will stick with full-HD (1080x1920 pixels) resolution display. The tipster however, is not sure of the specifications as of now, proving these specifications to be not much more than rumours. Unfortunately, nothing else is known about the handset for now.

The images show two front-facing speakers at top and bottom along with a front-facing camera placed at the top-right corner. The rear camera and flash setup fall in line with the design sported by the OnePlus 2. The company logo is placed at the centre. Interestingly, the front panel is seen with no capacitive buttons or the fingerprint sensor, like seen in OnePlus two. Wired stripes are also visible on the edges but it is too early to say what their purpose is.
OnePlus earlier this month scrapped the invite system for its current OnePlus 2 flagship smartphone. It announced that those interested in purchasing the smartphone won't need to have an invite. The China-based smartphone company took the world by storm last year with its OnePlus One flagship smartphone. Touted as the "flagship killer," the $350-priced (Rs. 21,999 in India) handset impressed many users and experts alike, however its invitation system turned out to be a deal breaker for many, as it made the smartphone rather difficult to get.

The first stethoscope

René Laennec, a French doctor and inventor was born 235 years ago today, and Google has marked his birthday with a Doodle. Dr Laennec's importance to modern medicine was guaranteed by his invention of the very first stethoscope in 1816. Here are five things you (probably) didn't know about him : 1. Dr Laennec's stethoscope bears little semblance to the modern stethoscope. Unlike those used today, Dr Laennec's stethoscope was not a set of ear pieces connected by a plastic tube to a chest piece. His stethoscopes were simple cylinders made from wood and metal. The doctor using it would simply place it directly over the area in question and listen at the other end. 2. His first stethoscope was a rolled up piece of paper Described in his  1819 treatise  on this device, Dr Laennec invented the stethoscope while treating a young woman suffering from symptoms of heart disease. 3. The stethoscope was not his only contribution to medical science I...

EPA and the regulation of greenhouse gasses

This week, EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy joined private and public sector leaders for a second annual White House roundtable discussion about the progress made and new steps taken to curb emissions of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), potent greenhouse gases used in refrigeration and air conditioning. Administrator McCarthy announced several new actions the agency will take to help support a smooth transition to climate-friendly alternatives to HFCs. "EPA is working closely with industry leaders to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, transition to climate-friendly refrigerants, and deploy advanced refrigeration technologies,” said EPA Administrator Gina McCarthy. “The powerful combination of EPA’s regulatory actions and innovations emerging from the private sector have put our country on track to significantly cut HFC use and deliver on the goals of the President’s Climate Action Plan.” Among the actions announced today, EPA proposed a rule that would improve t...
