Authorities say dispute behind deadly shootings
Illinois State Police investigators have determined that a man who shot dead five family members at their home in central Illinois was motivated by his anger over a custody dispute.
In a statement Friday, the state police said Rick O. Smith planned the shooting attack on the family because he believed they were interfering in his dispute with the mother of his 3-year-old daughter. Rita Luark and Smith's daughter live at a different address and were not among the victims of the April 24 shooting in Manchester.
Police shot and killed Smith the same day after he fired shots at officers during a car chase.
Police said their conclusions on Smith's motive were based on statements from family members and acquaintances.

Comments on: Massive Takata Airbag Recall: Everything You Need to Know, Including Full List of Affected Vehicles

Comments on: Massive Takata Airbag Recall: Everything You Need to Know, Including Full List of Affected Vehicles
More than 29 million vehicles from 35 brands have potentially dangerous airbags. See all affected models and follow the story at Car and Driver.
Even though not covered by the recall I watched a Pontiac G6 next to me test deploy theirs this morning. Looked like a successful test, however, the person in the stationary barrier they were tested on didn't look too happy and that they might mimic Takata injuries for them. So good to see people being proactive for each other :)
If the numbers are correct, just about 34 million vehicles are affected. Takata is ramping up production replacements that will be produced at the rate of 10 million a year...so at best if they don't go BK - this issue will take THREE YEARS to resolve.
Honda made an airbag recall in Chile yesterday due to the Takata airbag issue. Appeared in yesterday's newspaper.2 Replies
If all these defective airbags were deployed at once, would there be enough thrust to send the entire Takata boardroom to Mars?3 Replies
Somehow, I have a feeling that my 2005 Honda Ody not being a part of the recall is just an oversight that will be corrected soon enough.

So you're saying this Takata tragedy is only 1 kind of problem? We're talking about recalls, not problems. As I researched (carcomplaintsdotcom), VW Group have the least recalls of about 100876 since January this year.
You are changing the subject from reliability to recalls, but OK. VW stinks in that regard:
1. I don't know why we need to keep telling people this. JD Power means absolutely nothing. when operator error can be considered a reliability problem and something such as bluetooth connection problems are on the same level as a catostrophic engine meltdown, there is 0 credibility to the survey. the fact alone that ANY vehicle (besides Lexus) is expected to have at least one reliability problem in the first 60 days of ownership should be enough of a red flag. new cars just don't have true reliability problems at that rate.
2. you forgot about the same as *Subaru* as well...and I doubt you're going to go to all of the Subaru posts and put this up and say "Subaru has the same reliability rating as VW, Kia, and Chrysler!!!!11!1!!" when people say Subaru's are reliable.
now I like VAG and all that, it's no secret. I drive a Passat 1.8T, which is the most reliable midsize sedan according to Consumer Reports; better than the 6, Camry, and Accord. what youre doing here is using farcical data to prove the wives tales of VW's that had glove boxes that decapetated front passengers, pistons that shot through engine blocks and car hoods, window switches that oozed sulfuric acid, and carpet that peeled because it was attached with doublemint gum.
Why? Because it is still current data. We have to use some data. Pick your poison, I suppose. Data is better than BS, every time. We own a Subaru, btw. She loves it.
I prefer the overall rankings that CR put together that include both long-term reliability and performance in multiple tests.
In that ranking, 1-2-3-4-5 best are Lexus-Mazda-Toyota-Audi-Subaru.
1-2-3-4-5 worst are Fiat-Jeep-Mini-Dodge-Ford.
That said, I would never, ever base a buying decision on one set of data. Whatever floats yer boat, though, and YMMV.
but just "using some data" when the data is collected in a way that just isn't accurate does nothing. my argument is that JD power surveys shouldn't even be in the discussion because they are obviously biased.
I have owned a number of Hondas, 2 VWs, 2 Subarus, and just passed first year of ownership of a Ford. Subjectively, the worst cars in my household has been the VeeDubs. Not that they left us stranded on side of the road. No, that never happened in any cars. But VWs exhibited the highest number of electrical gremlins compared to others. With that said, our current Subaru had to have its steering box replaced under warranty within first year. It was in the shop for over a week. Was it a bigger issue than electrical issues? Yes. How does it register on JD Power? ONE problem. Do we still think Subaru is more reliable than VW? Yes, because that was the only problem.
My point is: as owners we get tired of having our cars in shops all the time for repairs, warranty or not. VWs have the perception of not reliable because of its numerous small problems. If they can improve that, their JD Powers rankings will move up.
So you just throw out any hard data that you don't like? Hmmm....
Like I said, pick your poison, and I prefer CR's overall rankings to just a reliability ranking, and I would never make a buying decision based solely on ANYONE's single data set, but the OP said reliability, so I used reliability data. Then he changed to recalls, so I used recent C/D recall data. What should we use? VW-generated data only?
No actually...as I've explained over and over why JD power should be thrown out NO MATTER the outcome of the data. it's not about not liking the data, it's knowing that the survey is made up of bad data that is extremely biased.
the survey still uses operator error as a basis for reliability problems and will therefore NEVER be accurate. JD power is literally the only reliability survey that I complain about simply because the way data is collected is extremely flawed. as I have said.
You are certainly entitled to your opinion, but you are quite obviously biased in anything involving the VW group, so therefore by your logic we can throw out your outlier opinions.... Let's see where CR puts VW in terms of long-term reliability, shall we? Or will you object to their data as well?
Hmmmmm. In the toilet.
no not at all...but in that same article that graph is featured in, they state that recent inroads in reliability for ALL automakers are not reflected in long-term reliability graphs yet. it's impossible to improve the reliability of models that are already sold.
So your recommendation is to ignore ALL existing data, and just take your fanboi word for it that VW might sorta-kinda be better in the future? OK. Not buying it, sorry. I'm data-driven, on this type of parameter.
Check again VW has a death from the Takata airbags.
load more replies (1 of 1)
I am kinda surprised this hasn't bankrupted them. My guess is very few people actually bring their vehicle in for the recall. If they did it would have been game over already.
when they give these numbers is it NORTH AMERICAN market? i would like to know if canadian vehicles are included in this (i kinda assume yes)

The main goal of the GENEPARK consortium is to employ innovative haemogenomic approaches to determine gene expression profiles specific for genetic and idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. These gene expression signatures will be utilised clinically as non-invasive diagnostic tests for PD. The sensitivity of the newly developed diagnostic test will be determined by extensive validations on an independent cohort of PD patients, whereas the specificity will be assessed by testing patients with atypical parkinsonisms, including multiple system atrophy, progressive supranuclear palsy and diffuse Lewy body disease. In order to test the specificity of the diagnostic set in other disorders that affect basal ganglia, Huntington's disease and dopa responsive dystonia patients will be analysed. The second objective of the proposal is to determine correlations between gene expression signatures and different stages of PD and thus provide the basis for early diagnosis and monitoring of disease progression. These changes in blood gene expression will be correlated with alterations detected by neuroimaging in the brain of PD patients. Such combinations of molecular and morphological markers of disease may ultimately facilitate the selection and monitoring of neuroprotective therapies for PD. Finally, GENEPARK aims to develop new bioinformatic software tools for selection of genomic biomarkers using microarray data. A set of established computational tools will be applied and novel methods, some of them based on mechanistic modelling of the neurodegenerative diseases, will be developed in order to study the advantages and limitations of the different methodologies.
With special emphasis on the careful clinical selection of patients and sufficient power regarding patient numbers, as well as extensive quality control and validation of the data, GENEPARK aims to develop a standardised approach to development and validation of haemogenomic biomarkers of disease.
|Condition or disease
|Parkinson Disease Multiple System Atrophy Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Huntington Disease Dystonia Diffuse Lewy Body Disease
Employ innovative haemogenomic approaches to determine gene expression signatures specific for idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD). There is currently no specific clinical or laboratory diagnostic test available for PD. In GENEPARK, blood samples from patients with genetic PD and idiopathic PD will be analysed by microarrays to identify gene expression signatures specific for PD. The specificity of the new biomarkers for PD will be tested by the analysis of patients with atypical parkinsonisms, including multiple system atrophy (MSA), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and diffuse Lewy body disease (DLBD), as well as in patients with other basal ganglia disorders such as Huntington's disease (HD) and dopa responsive dystonia (DRD). The validated gene expression signatures will be utilised to develop a new test for diagnosis of idiopathic PD. Determine correlation between gene expression signatures and different stages of PD.
Gene expression in presymptomatic and symptomatic patients with genetic forms of PD as well as patients in various stages of idiopathic PD will be analysed to identify gene expression signatures specific for various stages of the disease. It should be emphasised that since no clinical measures are present in presymptomatic genetic PD such molecular markers could serve as surrogate markers to monitor therapeutic efficacy of possible preventive treatments in PD. Determine correlations between gene expression signatures and morphological evidence of neurodegenerative process in PD brain as determined by neuroimaging. Gene expression signatures identified in blood samples will be correlated with changes in brain as detected by neuroimaging in PD patients. Such correlations of molecular and morphological markers of disease will facilitate the selection of blood markers in relation to disease progression. Moreover, molecular and morphological markers of disease progression could be utilised in combination for monitoring the effects of new neuroprotective therapies for PD. Develop standardised approaches to development and validation of haemogenomic biomarkers.
This objective will be achieved by the special emphasis on careful clinical selection of patients, sufficient power regarding patient numbers, as well as extensive quality control and validation of the data. Develop new bioinformatic software tools for selection of genomic biomarkers using microarray data. The aim of the GENEPARK is to develop the theoretical foundations and to build the software tools for sample classification and selection of genomic biomarkers using microarray data. The established computational tools and novel methods developed within the GENEPARK will be applied to the patient data to study advantages and limitations of different methodologies.

Security breach briefly closes NJ airport terminal
The Transportation Security Administration says an airline employee has caused a security breach that briefly closed a terminal at Newark Liberty International Airport.
Spokeswoman Lisa Farbstein says a worker going through security screening exited the checkpoint before completing the process at 11 a.m. Wednesday in Terminal A.
The woman was found just before 1 p.m. and rescreened. The terminal reopened shortly afterward.
The TSA rescreened about 190 passengers in the terminal who were waiting to board flights.
On Tuesday, the TSA said it was pursuing disciplinary actions against six baggage screeners at the Newark airport, including some suspected of sleeping during their shifts. The employees have been suspended from screening duties while the cases proceed.
Newark is one of the nation's busiest airports.

MAKUA Rothman sits down with our brother across the pond, Chris Cote, to regale you with a little reality from the reef at Teahupoo. Excuse the slight mumbling, his bottom lip was only reattached a few hours beforehand...
Should you be feeling squeamish this probably isn't the interview you are looking for. If, however, rearranging your face on the reef, calling in morphine favours and jail-breaking from Tahitian hospitals tickles your fancy then button-up.

The first trailer for the historical drama Hyde Park on the Hudson has gone online. The film stars Bill Murray as President Franklin D. Roosevelt and centers on a weekend in 1939 which marked the first ever visit to America by a British monarchy when King George VI and Queen Elizabeth visited FDR's upstate New York cottage. Roosevelt also had an affair with his cousin, Daisy, during the same weekend. The trailer basically plays like a funnier version of Downton Abbey, with a great deal of heart thrown in towards the end. Lest you think this is another droll, period drama without a sense of humor, Murray is splendidly fun as Roosevelt.
Hit the jump to watch the trailer. Directed by Roger Michell (Notting Hill), the film also stars Laura Linney, Olivia Williams, Samuel West, Olivia Colman, Elizabeth Marvel, Elizabeth Wilson, and Eleanor Bron. Focus Features will release Hyde Park on the Hudson on December 7th.
Click over to Yahoo! to watch in HD.
Here's the official synopsis for Hyde Park on the Hudson:
In June 1939, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (Academy Award nominee Bill Murray) and his wife Eleanor (Olivia Williams) host the King and Queen of England (Samuel West and Olivia Colman) for a weekend at the Roosevelt home at Hyde Park on Hudson, in upstate New York – the first-ever visit of a reigning English monarch to America. With Britain facing imminent war with Germany, the Royals are desperately looking to FDR for support. But international affairs must be juggled with the complexities of FDR's domestic establishment, as wife, mother, and mistresses all conspire to make the royal weekend an unforgettable one. Seen through the eyes of Daisy (Academy Award nominee Laura Linney), Franklin's neighbor and intimate, the weekend will produce not only a special relationship between two great nations, but, for Daisy – and through her, for us all – a deeper understanding of the mysteries of love and friendship.

Inside a lab at Hayward, Calif.-based
Bruchez is assigning colorful bar codes of these dots to various genes within DNA--a process known as bead-based genotyping. His work will be instrumental in allowing researchers to monitor reactions of cells to certain drugs or viruses.
Since 1914, researchers studying everything from blood tests to the effects of cancer drugs on the workings of a cell have used fluorescent dyes to tag cells. The dyes, however, can be problematic. Each dye molecule requires a laser of the same color to cause it to illuminate. For instance, when using a green dye, you need a laser emitting the wavelength of green light to be able to see the dye. The dyes are also imprecise and have a tendency to bleed together. They can only be lit up for very short periods of time, usually just a few seconds after a light source is applied.
Quantum dots (qdots) don't have any of these drawbacks, and that is what makes the technology such a godsend to researchers. By varying just the size of these gumdrop-shaped crystals--typically only a few nanometers in diameter--you can cause a rainbow of colors to fluoresce.
Researchers at Bell Labs in the 1980s observed that these quantum dots can omit a surprisingly vast number of colors and that the smaller the quantum dot, the brighter the color. For example, a two-nanometer (nm) particle glows bright green, while a larger five-nm particle glows red. They stay lit for much longer periods of time than dyes do--often hours or days. Similar to fluorescence, qdots allow you to tag different biological components, like proteins or different strands of DNA, with specific colors. For the medical profession, it means quantum dots could be used in a blood sample to quickly screen for certain proteins that may indicate a higher propensity for diabetes, cancer or HIV.
The Illuminator
Quantum Dot is the leader in this business. The firm was formed in 1998 by Silicon Valley venture capitalist
"Our strategy is to structure licenses with companies who are leaders in a variety of market segments. We're not looking to be an OEM supplier," says
Quantum Dot is relying on these advances to attract partners. It's already collaborating with
Quantum has yet to generate revenue. But going forward, it wants to put its quantum dots into other firm's products, such as
A Golden Alternative
One of Quantum Dot's chief competitors, Evanston, Ill.-based
"What we're doing blows state-of-the art fluorescence out of the water," explains Mirkin. "Our DNA nanoparticles probe technology offers higher sensitivity, lower cost rendering and is simpler to produce." Like Quantum Dot, Nanosphere offers numerous advantages over traditional DNA detection methods. Mirkin says his technology is 10 times more sensitive and has 100,000 times more specificity than current genomic detection systems. Mirkin is quick to criticize quantum dots: "It still involves using a radioactive-heavy metal. That's something that quantum dots will have to get over if they're ever going to be used in vivo [in the body]."
However, Quantum's Watson disagrees with Mirkin. "Our quantum dots are not radioactive," he says. "They are made of cadmium and selenium, which in excessive quantities, like almost any substance, can be toxic. We've done a lot of work with the state and federal governments to determine what concentration of these elements is appropriate."
Never mind the competitive quibbling. Both quantum dots and gold nanoparticles have big advantages over traditional fluorescence in DNA detection. They will have a major impact on the multibillion-dollar fields of medical diagnostics and clinical research. By the end of the year, both firms will apply their technology to commercial applications. These two promising companies aren't public yet, but as the revenue starts to flow in, so will interest from investment bankers.

Cloud Sherpas, a reseller specializing in helping customers adopt Google Apps, today announced its third acquisition in two months of like-minded businesses.
The company acquired WaveAdept, based in Wellington, New Zealand, for an undisclosed sum. Last month it acquired Beloit Solutions Group in Overland Park, Kansas, and Omnetic in San Francisco.
The company has dealt with more than 20,000 accounts and 3.5 million users in 110 countries moving to Google Apps.
Google Apps is a service combining Gmail, Google Docs, Google Calendar, and other online tools from the Net giant; customers can use their own domain names with the service. It's a subscription that costs $50 per user per year, though an increasingly limited free version also is available. It offers deeply integrated collaboration features such as letting multiple users edit the same document simultaneously, but its Web-based interface lacks many of the features and polish of its chief competitor, Microsoft Office and Exchange.

General API Limits
All API requests, made either by the SDK or directly through the REST interface, can be throttled if Requests Per Second (RPS) exceed 25. This limit is applicable for every PubNub API. Please contact PubNub Support if you have a need for greater than 25 requests per second.
|Soft Limit (Best Practices)
|Hard Limit
|If hard limited is exceeded?
|Publish Rate
10-15 messages/sec per channel
NOTE: it is a best practice to limit the publish rate not because PubNub can't keep up - you should be able to publish as fast as your network/hardware will allow and PubNub will absorb it - but because the subscriber may miss out on messages if the subscribe rate is too slow. A slow subscribe rate causes messages to overflow the server side channel message queue before the subscriber can receive them.
The queue only overflows if during the reconnect time, you have published over 100 messages. Average reconnect time is around 150ms, technically that means publishing ~600/second. Keep in mind the queue could also overflow during a brief internet disconnection.
However, if you have a multiplex connection, the total messages received can't exceed 100 over all the channels combined.
If it takes 230ms to reconnect, you can only actually get ~400 per second (4 reconnects per second, each 230ms between, 100 messages per connect). That means if you publish 500 messages per second, the subscriber will miss some of them. Also consider this is not taking into consideration the download time for 100 messages (potentially 32Kb * 100).
Typically reconnection is faster than that. If you are on AWS, your reconnect might be as low as 30-50ms. With a 50ms reconnect time, you can publish close to 2000 messages per second, and the subscriber won't miss messages due to overflow.
The most complicated part is multiplexed subscriber connections, it's 100 messages total across all the channels, so you can't publish more than 100 messages in the reconnect time across n channels in the multiplex channel list. Hard to give an exact recommendation here! Also applies to channel group and wildcard subscriptions in addition to multiplexing.
Increasing the queue size for the sub-key (to 300 or 500, for example) will allow the subscribers to keep up with more messages.
Also, the queue life (TTL) must be considered in addition to the queue size; see
No throttling on keys in good standing (either any key with a paid plan present or keys on Free Tier at usage levels within the allowed limits).
Use HTTP Pipelining for higher throughput.
Free Tier keys exceeding usage quotas are subject to deactivation without warning, though for a first overage we will attempt to get in contact before disabling keys. All other keys, N/A

|Subscribe Rate
|Most of the considerations mentioned above in soft limits for publish rate are actually because of the limitations on the subscriber end (queue limit, roundtrips, etc).
No limit
Use HTTP Streaming for maximum throughput
|# of Channels
|# of Subscribers per channel or keyset
|# of Publishers per channel or keyset
|Message Size
|Less than < 30KB to be safe.
|Length of GET request, including HTTP headers & URI encoding overhead (~32kb)
|HTTP 400 error
|Message Buffer Cache
Size: 100 message queue
TTL: 16 minutes maximum before cleared off the cache, but can be shorter (no guarantees).
If longer than 8-10 minutes disconnect, use Storage & Playback
NOTE: Each socket connection has an in-memory message queue (FIFO) that holds onto recently published messages for the cache duration (12-16 minutes) and is limited to the most recent 100 messages. Consequently, publishing over 100 messages in the window of the subscribe reconnect time inevitably results in older messages overflowing the queue and getting discarded. For long term, reliable persistence and retrieval of missed message, you should enable Storage & Playback add-on with a duration up to 30 days or even unlimited and use the history API to retrieve those messages.
Size: Configurable on our end, may be added costs
TTL: Currently defined with a hard limit of 20 mins and a configurable effective percentage that controls the behavior of the network. So, a percentage of 90 would mean the effective TTL is 18 mins. Currently it's set to 80% or 16 mins

When subscribing to many channels, channel groups allows for the persistence of channel lists.
No limit in client SDKs, but we advertise a hard limit of 100 channels
No server side limit, only limited by URI length.
|Channel Groups
|Up to 10 channel groups, each with 2,000 channels for a total of 20,000 channels.
200 channels can be added at a time.
|If subscribing to more than 10 channel groups, receive 400 HTTP status code with description
Maximum channel registry count exceeded
|Wildcard Subscribe
Depends on subscribe rate
NOTE: see note for
3 levels (2 dots) of wildcarding:
No limit to # of channels able to subscribe to in a wildcard subscribe.

|Soft Limit
|Hard Limit
|If hard limited is exceeded?
|# of Tokens
|No limits
|Grant latency
Server to server (grant by server for server usage), give it 1 second between grant and usage
Separate process (server grant, client usage), wait for grant callback before returning to client
|Channels per grant
|Auth-keys per grant
|Granting on Wildcard Levels
Can only grant one level deep:
|If you grant on
a.b.*, the grant will treat
a.b.* as a single channel with name
|Forbidden Cache Time
|Soft Limit
|Hard Limit
|If hard limited is exceeded?
|Minimum: 1 minute heartbeat & 29 second interval
Minimum: heartbeat:10; interval: 4 (lowest common denominator across 3.x SDKs; each have different hard limits)
4.x SDKs do not currently have limitations.
|Presence Announce Max
|We can adjust this limit, but there are considerations
|Webhook Retries
Presence webhooks will try to POST to your URL endpoint for a maximum of 4 times, each with a 5s timeout;
Ensure that the customer's server (REST endpoint) returns 200
NOTE: If a channel has reached the Presence Announce Max limit, we will not send webhook requests for that channel
|If webhook has reached maximum number of retries, the request is lost.
|Global Here Now
|If very large user base (100k+), chunk out to smaller
global presence channels and do individual here_now calls on those (no more than 10k per global presence channel)
|No limit - latency can get pretty high since no pagination
Mobile Push Gateway
|Soft Limit
|Hard Limit
|If hard limited is exceeded?
|# of Push Certificates
|1 APNS certificate & 1 GCM key per set of PubNub keys
|Push Notification Message Size
Maximum: 2kb for APNS, 4kb for GCM
(support for 4kb payload with Apple's HTTP/2 APIs is in the backlog)
PAM - Best Practice: don't grant
manage to clients
Add/Remove channels : Best Practice: Don't implement add/remove channels on your clients because if you add Access Manager, you shouldn't grant manage to client apps.
Keep in mind base64encoding can add up to 30% bloat. Gzipping the base64 encoded data can counter this effect; sometimes, base64 + gzip is actually smaller than the original binary!
