Different new flights and "Go Pack" package by JetBlue Airways

JetBlue Airways has doubled the flights between Tampa International Airport and New York’s LaGuardia Airport along with the announcement of new service from Washington's Reagan to Tampa.

"By seizing the opportunity to invest in the rare slot pairs made available in our hometown of New York City and in our nation's capital, JetBlue is comfortably poised for organic growth," said JetBlue's Vice President of Network Planning and Partnerships, Scott Laurence. "Together with our low fares, award-winning product and customer service, we're pleased to be able to double the flights, new destinations and more options to customers in both of these vital regions."

There is an announcement of Jet Service from Boston to Nantucket from May 17 to September 4.

JetBlue has announced "Go Pack" packages for flight between Long Beach Airport (LGB) and San Francisco (SFO), Oakland (OAK) or Sacramento (SMF) International Airports.

"Whether customers are traveling between Long Beach and Northern California for work or leisure, Go Pack offers greater convenience and value for their travel needs," said Director of Revenue Management Roger Johnson. "As the largest carrier in Long Beach, we offer a flexible and frequent daily schedule between these markets, with three daily flights to choose from on each route. Plus, our customers are rewarded with customer loyalty points with their Go Pack purchase, so they're that much closer to another free flight!"

Google -Motorola deal has been cleared by U.S. and European regulators

U.S. Department of Justice has cleared the investigations on Google's acquisition of Motorola in $12.5 billion. Moreover, European Commission has given approval to the deal.

Joaquín Almunia, Commission Vice President in charge of competition policy, said,

"We have approved the acquisition of Motorola Mobility by Google because, upon careful examination, this transaction does not itself raise competition issues. Of course, the Commission will continue to keep a close eye on the behaviour of all market players in the sector, particularly the increasingly strategic use of patents".

The deal will "enhance competition and offer consumers faster innovation, greater choice and wonderful user experiences," Don Harrison, Google's deputy general counsel, wrote in a blog post.

Now Google has to get approval from China, Taiwan and Israel in order to get full control of Motorola Mobility.

Large Hadron Collider is entering world of higher energy level

Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in CERN's European Physics Laboratory will get increased levels of energy to do work. Its beam energy will be increased by 0.5 TeV this year and becomes 4 TeV (trillion electron-volt). After the completion of these experiments, LHC will work on 7 TeV after 20 months of gap.

Researchers and Experts have made this decision in order to get information for new particles. Research director of CERN, Sergio Bertolucci, said that we will reach a point where we will say that we have discovered the reality of Higgs boson i.e. God particle.

By the time the LHC goes into its first long stop at the end of this year, we will either know that a Higgs particle exists or have ruled out the existence of a Standard Model Higgs. Either would be a major advance in our exploration of nature, bringing us closer to understanding how the fundamental particles acquire their mass, and marking the beginning of a new chapter in particle physics.

From SayPeople,

Previous operations of the lab showed some evidences of Higgs boson in the range of 124-126 GeV and passed the 4-sigma level of confidence. In order to be officially discovered, Higgs boson must have to get the 5-sigma level of confidence and this year’s operation could help in finalizing the results.

Vodafone and C&W would finalize a deal by March 20

Vodafone has announced to make a bid for Cable & Wireless Worldwide (CWW), which is the telecom and broadband networking company providing services to corporate customers.

"Vodafone regularly reviews opportunities in the sector and confirms that it is in the very early stages of evaluating the merits of a potential offer for CWW," the company said in a statement. "There is no certainty that an offer will be made nor as to the terms on which any offer might be made. Any offer, if made, will be in cash but Vodafone reserves the right to change the specie of consideration."

Vodafone would offer 700 million pounds to the Cable & Wireless (C&W). However, the company's firm intentions will be announced by March 12.

Dot Hill has announced better performance of virtual server systems through VMware vStorage APIs

Dot Hill Systems Corp, a leader in providing SAN storage solutions, has announced on Monday, February 13, the inclusion of VMware vStorage APIs for Array Integration (VAAI) support and Site Recovery Manager (SRM) support in the latest version of firmware for AssuredSAN 3000 storage systems.

SRM is utilized for more protection of data and enhanced recovery of data in the disaster situations. Moreover, SRM integration with array-based replication helps in maintaining the replicas of virtual machines on multiple sites.

"While users appreciate that they can free up server and IO resources to support virtualized production workloads by moving IO-intensive processes from their ESX hosts to their storage arrays, the actual level of benefit they'll realize from VAAI will to a large degree depend on the underlying storage. Flexible, scalable, high performance storage systems with VAAI integration will logically allow customers to gain more efficiencies, increase consolidation, and therefore reap greater returns on their VMware investments," states Mark Peters, senior analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group.

The new firmware will be available within one month.
