iMovie update improves HDMI support
Apple has released a minor update to its iMovie app for iOS improving compatibility with the Apple Digital AV Adapter. iMovie 1.2.1 will now output audio to an HDTV when using the Digital AV Adapter. Videos from Marquee will also now play in full screen when output from the device via the Digital AV Adapter's HDMI connection. Additional improvements and bug fixes include resolving issues with missing media in projects, grouping clips more accurately by date in the video browser, fixing issues with background music fading and a number of other small performance and reliability improvements. iMovie requires an iPhone 4, fourth-generation iPod touch or iPad 2 running iOS 4.2.6 or later and is available from the App Store for $5.
Lodsys replies to Apple, sues app developers
Following legal threats made to third-party iOS application developers and a strongly worded response from Apple, Lodsys has filed suit against seven developers while denying Apple's claims. FOSS Patents has identified the seven developers named in the suit as Combay, Iconfactory, Illusion Labs, Machael G. Karr, Quickoffice, Richard Shinderman, and Wulven Games. At issue in the case is a Lodsys patent entitled "Methods and Systems for Gathering Information from Units of a Commodity Across a Network", which it claims covers in-app purchase and upgrade button technology.
In a series of posts on its company blog, Lodsys claims that it "chose to move its litigation timing to an earlier date than originally planned"—it had promised to give app developers 21 days to respond—"in response to Apple's threat, in order to preserve its legal options." In discussing Apple's response, in which the company claimed that its licenses gave third-party developers "undisputable" freedom to use Lodsys' patents, Lodsys claims that it has "no discernable basis in law or fact." The company goes on to state that it has sent a letter to Apple explaining its legal position on the license interpretation issue. Finally, Lodsys claims that it will pay $1,000 to each developer or entity to which it sends an infringement notice should Apple's existing license rights turn out to cover their work.

iCloud service to include films, TV shows?
Apple may have plans to include the online storage and streaming of both films and TV shows in its iCloud offering, according to a new report. Citing two sources close to the negotiations, Cnet reports that Apple has increased its efforts to convince major Hollywood film studios to issue licenses that would enable such a service; the report notes that Apple began discussing such a service with the studios over a year ago. The report also claims that part of the challenge in signing all six major studios is the so-called HBO blackout, part of the contract between the cable network and three of the six studios—Warner Bros., 20th Century Fox, and NBC Universal—that prohibits other electronic distribution outlets from selling the title while it's airing on HBO. Whether or not a deal concerning the HBO contract is ready in time, the report states that Apple could still launch such a service with the support of the other three major studios—Disney, Paramount, and Sony—when it officially unveils its iCloud service June 6.
Apple updates iWork apps with iPhone, iPod touch support
Apple has updated iWork for iOS adding support for the iPhone and iPod touch to the existing suite of iPad apps and adding the ability to organize documents into folders. Pages, Numbers and Keynote are now universal apps that can be used on the iPad as well as the iPhone 3GS, iPhone 4 and third- and fourth-generation iPod touch. The iPhone and iPod touch versions provide the same features found on the iPad scaled and optimized for the smaller screen. Users can import and export documents from iWork for Mac and Microsoft Office and print documents via AirPrint. A new Smart Zoom feature has been added to Pages and Numbers to assist with working on the smaller iPhone and iPod touch screens by automatically zooming in to follow the cursor when editing text or cells and zooming back to a larger page or table view when done.
The latest versions also introduce an improved document management interface that allows users to organize files, and group them in folders using a gesture-based interface. Keynote 1.4 further adds support for the separate Keynote Remote iOS app, allowing users to remotely control a Keynote for iOS presentation from an iPhone or iPod touch. Pages 1.4 also adds the ability to change font style and size directly from the ruler when editing text. Pages, Numbers and Keynote 1.4 each require iOS 4.2.8 or later and are available from the App Store separately for $10 each; all three apps are free updates for users of the corresponding previous version. Keynote Remote for the iPhone and iPod touch is available separately for $1 and requires iOS 4.2.1 or later.
Apple confirms Jobs-led iCloud intro for WWDC
Apple has announced that its will unveil iCloud, its "upcoming cloud services offering," during its traditional keynote address to open its Worldwide Developers Conference. According to the release, Apple CEO Steve Jobs and a team of Apple executives will make appearances during the keynote, which will feature the unveiling of iCloud, as well as Mac OS X Lion—the eighth major release of Mac OS X—and iOS 5, the latest version of the software that powers the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Apple's annual Worldwide Developers Conference will begin with the keynote address, to be held on Monday, June 6, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time.
Apple to include iPad in Back-to-school deal?
Apple may be considering offering a discount on an iPad 2 as an option in its yearly Back-to-School promotion, according to a new report. Citing an anonymous Apple source, Boy Genius Report claims that Apple's now traditional promotion will be announced at WWDC next month. The promotion is said to include a free iPod touch or $229 towards the purchase of any other iPod with the purchase of a new Mac, but may also give customers the option of taking a $200 discount on a new iPad 2 unit instead. The report itself seems less than fully confident about the idea, however, and such a move would be highly unusual, as the promo is normally meant to help Apple clear out inventory of iPod units prior to their traditional September refresh, instead of serving as a way to boost sales of recently updated products such as the iPad 2.
Report offers details on Apple's cloud music service
A new report has emerged offering details on Apple's cloud music offering. Citing people briefed on the talks between Apple and the major music labels, Bloomberg reports that Apple will be able to scan customers' digital music libraries in iTunes and quickly mirror their collections on its own servers, replacing low-quality songs with higher quality versions, after which users will be able to stream their songs and albums directly to their devices. According to the report, users will be able to store their entire music collections in the cloud—including songs that may have been obtained illegally, giving the music labels a way to earn money on pirated music through whatever fee Apple plans to charge. The report claims that the labels are negotiating aggressively to ensure they make a profit from the shift to the cloud, as it may be the last opportunity to stem piracy and dropping sales. Apple has already signed deals with three of the four major labels for the service, and is said to be close to reaching a deal with the final holdout, Universal Music. Apple could announce its cloud music service as early as its Worldwide Developers Conference, which begins with a keynote address on June 6.
Apple sued over videophone patents
Apple, along with AT&T and US Cellular, has been hit with a patent infringement lawsuit by Visual Interactive Phone Concepts (VIPC). In its case against Apple, VIPC is asserting two patents, both of which are entitled "videophone interactive mailbox facility system and method of processing information," according to a FOSS Patents report. The complaint states that Apple infringes on the patents due to its sales of "mobile communication devices that are videophones," and also names the App Store—"an application service for users to view, download and use applications on their videophones"—the iTunes Store, and the iBookstore as infringing entities, because they include "a central data center that facilitates the order and delivery of [apps, entertainment content, books, PDF documents, etc.]." Apple is accused of "intentional and willful infringement," which, as the report notes, would result in treble damages should the court agree.
Apple asked to require app privacy policies
Senator Al Franken has released a letter written to Apple CEO Steve Jobs and Google CEO Larry Page, in which he asks the companies to create privacy policies for all apps available on their respective mobile platforms. Franken, who recently headed a meeting of the Judiciary Subcommittee on Privacy, Technology and the Law which representatives from both Apple and Google attended, asked the two companies "to require clear and understandable privacy policies for all of their apps." As published by AppleInsider, the letter also states that "Apple and Google have each said time and again that they are committed to protecting users' privacy. This is an easy opportunity for your companies to put that commitment into action."
Franken continued, "Although I believe there is a greater need for transparency and disclosure for the collection and sharing of all personal information, at a minimum, I ask that you require all location-aware applications in your app stores to provide privacy policies that clearly specify what kind of information is being gathered from users, how that information is used, and how it is shared with third parties. These apps constitute only a subset of all of the apps available on your stores." Privacy on mobile devices, and on Apple's in particular, became a hot topic in recent weeks following a report claiming that iOS 4 devices were regularly recording their positions to hidden files, leading to charges of secret location tracking against Apple, and prompting the company to post a Q&A document discussing the collection of location data on iOS devices.
Apple nearing cloud deals with music publishers
Apple is closing in on deals which would give it the music publishing rights necessary to launch its anticipated cloud music service, according to a new report. Citing two sources with knowledge of the talks, Cnet reports that negotiations between Apple and music publishers began in earnest recently, but that the amount of money separating the two sides is relatively small. Despite the seemingly small monetary gap between the two, the report notes that cloud services are new, and thus there is no precedent for how to license them. On the label side, Apple has reportedly signed license agreements with EMI Music, Warner Music, and Sony Music; a deal with Universal Music, the final holdout of the largest four labels, could come as soon as this week, according to the report.
Apple to Lodsys: Developers are protected by our licenses
Apple has sent a letter to Lodsys, in which it states that iOS application developers are protected from any infringement claims thanks to Apple's patent licenses. "Apple is undisputedly licensed to these patent and the Apple App Makers are protected by that license. There is no basis for Lodsys' infringement allegations against Apple's App Makers," wrote Apple General Counsel Bruce Sewell in a letter obtained by iLounge. Lodsys recently sent claims of patent infringement over the use of in-app purchasing within iOS applications to a variety of small iOS developers, threatening legal action within three weeks should the developers fail to license the company's patents.
"[T]he technology that is targeted in your notice letters is technology that Apple is expressly licensed under the Lodsys patents to offer to Apple's App Makers," Sewell concludes. "These licensed products and services enable Apple's App Makers to communicate with end users through the use of Apple's own licensed hardware, software, APIs, memory, servers, and interfaces, including Apple's App Store. Because Apple is licensed under Lodsys' patents to offer such technology to its App Makers, the App Makers are entitled to use this technology free from any infringement claims by Lodsys." The full text of Sewell's letter is available below.
Apple updates retail stores with iPads, new app features
Apple over the weekend launched a significant revamp of its retail stores, replacing its paper-based information graphics with iPads. As noted by ifoAppleStore, there is now one iPad next to each major product in the stores, including Macs, iPhones, iPads, Apple TV, and the iPod touch, while smaller iPod models are mounted in groups with a single iPad. The iPads, which are mounted semi-permanently in clear acrylic, are running interactive software that can take customers through each product's main features, and features a Specialist button that allows customers to request assistance, with an indication of where the customer is the queue of other people waiting.
In addition to the changes made at the retail stores, Apple also released version 1.3 of its Apple Store app for iOS. The update offers the ability to custom-configure a new Mac, and new in-store features that allow customers to request assistance from a Specialist, check on Genius Bar wait times and make appointments, and see when the next workshop is scheduled. The Apple Store app for iOS is available now as a free download from the App Store.
Apple signs Sony to cloud music deal
Apple has now reached a cloud-based music licensing agreement with Sony Music Group, giving it deals with three of the four largest labels, according to a Bloomberg report. Citing people with knowledge of the deals, the report reiterates that the service will allow users to store content on Apple's servers and access it via the Internet rather than storing it locally on a device. An Apple patent application discovered yesterday shows one implementation of how such a service could work. The report goes on to state that Apple is close to a deal with Universal Music Group, and that separate agreements with music publishers would also be necessary, as they control different rights than the labels.
Apple patents time-, space-saving streaming media buffer
A newly published Apple patent application suggests that the company may be planning to use small, locally-stored clips of media items stored in the cloud as an on-device buffer. Such a setup would allow for reduced media footprints on devices such as the iPod and iPhone, as only a short portion of each song or video—think an iTunes preview clip—would be stored locally, in order to give the device an opportunity to grab the rest of the item while reducing the possibility of playback pauses as media is retrieved from a server.
Entitled "Local Storage of a Portion of Streamed Media Items," the patent describes "locally storing one or more clips corresponding to a media item such that the clips can be immediately played back in response to a user request to play back the media item. While the clips are played back, the electronic device can retrieve the remaining segments of the media item from the user's media library as a media stream over a communications network. Once the playback of the clip is complete, the electronic device can seamlessly switch playback to the media stream received from the user's library." Notably, one of the images included with the patent shows an iTunes synchronization settings screen, in which an iPhone is set to "Sync partial music," with a "Minimum Connection Speed" of 3G. As with all Apple patents, this application does not necessarily represent any future product release from Apple, but offers evidence of the company's research in this area. [via AppleInsider]
Apple signs cloud deal with EMI, final two deals near
Apple has signed a cloud-based music licensing agreement with EMI music and is close to securing deals with the remaining "big four" labels, according to a new report. Citing multiple music industry sources, Cnet reports that EMI, along with Warner Music Group, have signed agreements with Apple, while similar deals with Sony Music Group and Universal Music Group are nearing completion. The report states that negotiations with the latter two labels could be wrapped up as early as next week, giving Apple contracts with all four of the top labels heading into WWDC, where many expect the company to announce its cloud-based offering. Apple's approach differs from that of rivals Amazon and Google, both of which have launched cloud-based music services without the support of the labels; the report claims that the labels' agreements with Apple may allow it to offer features that Amazon and Google lack.
Apple pushing for smaller SIM standard
Apple has proposed a new SIM card standard smaller than the micro SIMs found in the iPhone 4 and iPad, according to Reuters. "We were quite happy to see last week that Apple has submitted a new requirement to (European telecoms standards body) ETSI for a smaller SIM form factor—smaller than the one that goes in iPhone 4 and iPad," Anne Bouverot, Orange's head of mobile services, told the news agency. "They have done that through the standardisation route, through ETSI, with the sponsorship of some major mobile operators, Orange being one of them." Bouverot added that the standardization process would take time and that the first devices to use the new standard could emerge next year.
Apple job posting points to Sprint iPhone?
A new Apple job posting suggests that the company may be planning to offer a version of the iPhone on Sprint. Stop it, AT&T reports on a new job posting for a Carrier Engineer based in Kansas City, MO, who would be part of a team "that supports taking products through technical approval at the carriers." As noted in the report, Sprint's headquarters in in Overland Park, KS, a suburb of Kansas City. Interestingly, the posting in question has since been changed to list Cupertino as the job location; it is possible, although unlikely, that Kansas City was listed by mistake. [via Mac Rumors]
Apple schedules retail meetings, related to 10th anniversary?
Apple has made a number of retail store plans for this weekend, suggesting the company may be planning a special event to celebrate the 10th anniversary of its retail stores. Boy Genius Report, citing an unnamed but "solid" Apple source, claims that Apple has scheduled an overnight shift for 10-15 individuals at each Apple Store, with employees expected to work from late Saturday through mid-Sunday. During the overnight shift, employees will be required to lock their cell phones in the main office, and sign an Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) with Apple. According to the report, the overnight shift will include all visuals staff, a manager, a business team manager, some Genius team members, a back-of-house employee, and a few Apple specialists.
The report goes on to claim that stores have already received hardware to install, which is to be under lock and key until after close on Saturday night, and are expecting more to arrive Friday or Saturday. Employees have reportedly already downloaded gigabytes of data from Apple corporate labeled "training" in a password-protected folder that isn't accessible until Saturday afternoon, and will be hanging black curtains in store windows to prevent onlookers from peeking inside; finally, all Apple Stores will reportedly have mandatory meetings on Sunday, May 22, with most meetings scheduled for the morning. Notably, the 10th anniversary of the opening of Apple's first retail stores in Tysons Corner, VA and Glendale, CA falls on this Thursday, May 19, meaning that any event, promotion, or product introduction related to the retail meetings would seemingly come well after the anniversary itself.
More companies join opposition to 'App Store' trademark
Microsoft and Nokia have joined the opposition to Apple's "App Store" trademark claim in Europe. Macworld UK reports that both Sony Ericsson and HTC have joined the effort to block the trademark claim, which the companies claim is too generic, and should be available for any company to use for stores that sell applications. "Both terms lack distinctiveness and so the registrations should not have been granted," said a Nokia spokeswoman. According to the report, the move to block Apple's trademarks in Europe was started by Amazon last month; Microsoft is also trying to block Apple's "App Store" trademark request in the U.S., while Apple has filed suit against Amazon in the U.S. over its use of the term.
iOS devs threatened over in-app purchase patent claims
TUAW reports that several iOS developers have received claims of patent infringement over in-app purchasing within iOS applications, all apparently from the company Lodsys. James Thomson, UK-based developer of the popular PCalc calculator apps sent out a tweet earlier this morning stating that he had just received a package of legal papers via FedEx advising him that he is infringing a company's patent and has 21 days to license it. Thomson also noted that his latest update to PCalc Lite was approved by Apple this morning, but that he has decided to delay the release to avoid the potential of "hurt[ing] any future case."
Patrick McCarron of Chicago-based iOS developer MobileAge also confirmed via Twitter that he had received a similar patent threat via FedEx for in-app purchase use, most likely from the same company, although both developers have declined to disclose the other party involved in the complaint. Both have contacted Apple Legal for further guidance as the infringement claim concerns the use of Apple's in-app purchase technology built into the iOS operating system rather than any specific feature that has been created by the developers themselves.
An additional report from Mac Rumors reveals that Rob Gloess of Computer LogicX has also received a legal complaint regarding the use of an "Upgrade" button in the lite version of his application Mix & Mash, providing users with a link to the full version in the App Store. The documents that Gloess received make the claim that the "button that users click on to upgrade the app was in breach of US patent no 7222078." Mac Rumors reveals that the patent in question was filed in 2003 and is connected to patent holding firm Lodsys, which purchased the patents from the original holder in 2004 and has been revealed as the company issuing lawsuit threads in the Computer LogicX case.
Update: Lodsys also launched a patent infringement suit earlier this year against Brother, Canon, HP, Hulu, Lenovo, Lexmark, Motorola, Novell, Samsung, and Trend Micro alleging infringement of the same patent 7,222,078, "Methods and Systems for Gathering Information from Units of a Commodity Across a Network" among several others. Several companies named in the earlier suit have recently responded stating that the Lodsys "patents and invalid and unenforceable."

N.J. court: loss of ocean view in dune condemnation
New Jersey's highest court ruled that a Harvey Cedars couple do not have to be compensated for the loss of an ocean view, as distinct from the loss of actual land, after the government condemned a strip of their beachfront for a dune restoration project. Relevant factor: the dune restoration is believed to have saved the couple's home when Hurricane Sandy hit, and that benefit could properly be offset from the taking. [MaryAnn Spoto, Star-Ledger; earlier; edited/corrected to reflect comment]
More from reader TD in comments: "The reporter absolutely got it wrong. The court agreed the loss of a view could be a taking, but that it needed to be offset by the benefit incurred because the dune would presumably prevent future flooding. The lower courts had not allowed for the offset."

mostly Database programming. Loved it & feeld it my own. / Long long long Brake :) No C++ (only 5 hours) No Java :( Very little JavaScript
And two days after came announcement of Googles new language: DART! What is it??
YES! In less than 3 minutes i knew it: This is My Language. :) And then it was going :) I know this is gonna be great.
Loved to see these: "Dart is never gonna make it.." posts. Seen any lately? And this is also once in a lifetime opportunity to see The birth of a new programming language. But real coding..? Not yet.. Comp, Net, Java problems. And I think that writing code is fast, CORRECTING code is SLOW. So I dont, hurry. 6.3.2013 heiklap made his first ApeMan program in Github. So, let the coding begin. I am just walking in the foundaments of different language pyramids.. semantics.. O.. I love it.. There should be a way to study semantics and explanations of words and phrases in different languages, english, russian.. finnish... swedish.. And Community.. yes, great. I wanna be with it.

I love Walmart. Always good deals. The Glen Campbell CD's are perfect. I have not stopped playing them on my CD in my car. And the price was fabulous. Unbelieveable price of $12.99 for 2 CDs. Unheard of elsewhere. Thank you Walmart! I shop at your Walmart Rosemead all the time and love the bargains and variety.
These two CDs contain all his best stuff plus renditions of some classics. Love it. Good quality sound. No profanity.

guillows lancer build
kids and I are putting this together. build probably already done online, but what the heck.
wing is a lot skinnier than i thought (2 inches perhaps) and might not have the lift for what I thought a 24" wing span has. also noted cg back on trailing edge of wing, then discovered stabilizer with airfoil - makes me think about how to cut that elevator in. parts in picture 15 grams. electronics and motor 70 grams.
2 x 6 gram servos (hxt 500)
8 gram motor az - 1404, 2290 kv
20 gram 360 mAh 2s battery
6 gram 6amp esc
10 gram receiver.
(10 grams solder, screws etc)
predicted total of 100 - 120 grams.
parts on order, since i think i need to lighten gear. 2 2.5 gm BA servos, 5 gram hex motor, 2 1s 240 mAh battery at 12 grams. for a total of 15 grams savings to yields
90 to 110 grams with 48 sq in wing to get 3oz/48 in sq = 9 oz / ft sq wing loading.
concern 1. 9 oz wing loading is high for a floater.
a) so i might leave out the motor, esc, and use even smaller battery to hand launch as glider. we'll keep an eye out for potential thermals (tarred parking lots, hot beach sand?) or even launch piggy back on a larger plane if the wings can take the stress.
b) also might make a second identical wing and make it a biplane for 4.5 oz wing loading.
concern 2. since stabilizer has ribs I wonder how much lift ill ruin by cutting in elevators. if so maybe I'll just move cg forward and go with flat stabilizer - especially if going with bi wing version.
If the fuselage top wasn't curved I might have been able to replace with straight ligther longerons - carbon fiber perhaps?

parts came in. 27 grams for electronics minus battery. went ahead and bought the vapor brick if needed to go lighter, but i dont think the vapor motor and gear box is appropriate (too slow) so may save this for a 17 inch tiger moth. thinking about adding an extra inch onto the wing.
Nice posts and interesting project. I have read Lancer landing gear is fragile. Might want to reinforce. You could just use picnic plate foam for an add-on elevator. Scotch tape hinges work well. If you use 1mm carbon rod for control links to the tail you'll stay light.
Maybe you will get more responses if you jump over to "Parkflyer" thread. 100 grams is a little heavy for "Micro Ready to Fly" guys and a little on the light side for "Parkflyers". Kind of an interesting weight range.
Could be a sweet flyer.
Anyway just wanted to offer encouragement and I hope people chime in with more advice.

thats true 100 grams could be more of a park flyer. I've decided to go with the vapor components to acheive a total weigth of 30 grams or so for a wing loading of about 3 oz/sq ft. I want it to float and have been looking for a vapor brick project. With that said, the fuselage feels heavy now. there's a couple extra formers I might cut out. motor and gear box fitted into place. I'll have to compare the vapor and the ember 2 gear ratios to see if I need to switch for a shorter propeller.
I do like the idea of adding onto the rear of the stab for elevator, but the trailing edge is angled. Maybe I can extend it rearward first to get the entire length perpindicular then hinge the elevator.
I'll have to figure out how to move thread to park flyer, or just link to this one. Thanks for the tips.

Readers Top the Darts Again
The readers' picks topped the darts in Sunday Journal's 43rd Investment Dartboard Contest, extending their winning streak to three in a row.
But both the readers and the darts saw overall declines for the six months ended Sept. 30 amid the stock market's volatility.
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reader Dan Schneider's pick, Pharmasset, gained a whopping 109% as the company's new hepatitis C drug, which may not need to be taken with other drugs, moved toward Food and Drug Administration approval.
"If what I hear is true, and this does turn out to be a standalone drug, it will be a huge breakthrough in the treatment of a disease that heretofore hasn't been treated very well," says Mr. Schneider, a retired pharmaceutical salesman from West Allis, Wis.
A number of reader selections posted double-digit losses, but Joanne Severn's pick, Sunrise Senior Living, fared the worst, losing more than 61% during the six months.
"I'm thinking people are not putting their parents in nursing homes," says Ms. Severn, a state-government worker from Cedar Park, Texas, who reads the Austin American Statesman. "They're just staying in the house with them and saving money with the economy like this."
As a group, the six readers' picks fell more than 4% during the period, compared with a 15% loss for the six stocks chosen randomly by darts thrown at stock pages.
Sunday Journal contributor Simon Constable's picks lost 23%. All of his selections ended in the red, with silver miner Silver Wheaton and heavy-equipment maker Caterpillar CAT -0.79 % posting the biggest losses.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average was off more than 11% during the same period.
The darts have historically beaten the readers, with 26 dart wins out of 43 contests.
—Rachel Louise Ensign
New Picks Include Green Mountain Coffee Roasters and Weyerhaeuser
Here are the new reader stock picks, and their prices as of the market close on Sept. 30, for Sunday Journal's 45th Investment Dartboard contest, which runs through March 31, 2012.
Green Mountain Coffee Roasters (GMCR, $92.94) Dan Kuhlmann, a former account manager from Golden Valley, Minn., believes this specialty-coffee maker has potential given its deal with Starbucks SBUX 0.52 % and the holidays approaching. "It's cheaper than going to a Starbucks or a Caribou Coffee to buy a cup every morning but it's a little bit more expensive than the Folgers or the Nescafe to do it yourself," says the reader of the Minneapolis Star Tribune.
KV Pharmaceutical (KVA, $1.35) The company has healthy generic drug, name-brand drug and raw-materials businesses, says Bernard Gray, who reads the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. "It really has three arms to it," says Mr. Gray, who is semi-retired and owns a management company in Coral Springs, Fla.
Las Vegas Sands LVS 1.31 % (LVS, $38.34) Richard C. Pagel of Mechanicsburg, Pa., is following analysts'[nbsp ]"buy" recommendations for the hotel and casino operator given its expansion. It operates two casinos in China and recently opened another location in Singapore, says Mr. Pagel, a Sunday Patriot-News reader who is retired from the U.S. Postal Service.
Molycorp (MCP, $32.87) Roger Kelley of Everett, Wash., says many of the rare-earth metals Molycorp produces are used for flat screens for computers, TVs and smartphones, says Mr. Kelley, a former teacher who reads the Everett Herald.
Suburban Propane Partners SPH 0.70 % (SPH, $46.41) Susan Hanks, a photographer and tax preparer in Rio Linda, Calif., thinks this propane company is a good bet because home-heating costs are approaching as the weather cools. "They have a pattern of increasing starting in September," says the reader of the Sacramento Bee.
Weyerhaeuser WY 0.43 % (WY, $15.55) Timber and forest products are tied to the housing industry, and Jane Burek of Eugene, Ore., says the company is "already at a low so it has nowhere to go but up." The kindergarten teacher, who reads the Eugene Register-Guard, also says that the company, which was a dart pick in Contest No. 43, is diversified since it also owns land and sells it as real estate.
And the Dart Picks...
The darts hit oil and gas company Cabot Oil & Gas COG 0.70 % (COG, $61.91), videogame company Electronic Arts (ERTS, $20.45), information solutions company Equifax EFX 0.70 % (EFX, $30.74), global network marketing company Herbalife HLF 2.62 % (HLF, $53.60), health-care company Medco Health Solutions (MHS, $46.89) and oil and natural-gas company Ultra Petroleum (UPL, $27.72).

The German put on a strong showing at Sepang to score his first points with Sauber after finishing in eighth position, ahead of the McLaren of Sergio Perez and right behind the Lotus duo.
Hulkenberg had been unable to start the season-opening race in Australia because of a car problem.
Kaltenborn praised Hulkenberg's fighting spirit throughout the race.
"Of course you can see it's tough for us to keep certain cars behind us but I think that Nico did a very good job and fought as well as he could. I think he showed his skills and proved the reason why we've taken him," said Kaltenborn.
"We see in him a very efficient driver and a fast driver. He made use of what he could with the car and I was quite impressed that he did try to hang on that long to the Lotus.
"He fought a lot but still he could hang on to them, which was very good."
Sauber enjoyed its strongest season to date last year, finishing in sixth position in the standings after four podiums.
The Swiss squad has so far been unable to start a race from the top 10 this year, but Kaltenborn remains bullish about the potential of its car.
"It's too early to make any kind of call into any direction," she said. "For us we can clearly say that we are convinced in the potential of the car.
"Of course we lost out on collecting all of the data we could in the first race.
"Importantly now with the data we've collected, we analyse it properly at home because we need an understanding of that to see where we can still improve."

Suarez was previously an Atletico target and could be so again this summer, particularly if Atletico make progress in the Champions League and want to push on next season.
Atletico are said to be encouraged by the events of last summer, when Suarez announced he wanted to leave Anfield, although he did eventually sign a new contract with the Reds.
Once the World Cup is over, Atletico will re-evaluate the landscape and their chances of landing the Uruguay international.
A number of other players have been mentioned as incoming transfers. Should Thibaut Courtois not return for next season then Atletico will go for either Getafe's Moya or Kiko Casilla of Espanyol.
Sevilla's Alberto Moreno has been identified as a replacement for Filipe Luis should the left-back move on and Simeone's midfield could also be overhauled.
Axel Witsel, a player considered to be in the mould of the Coach and more ready for Atletico's level than Joshua Guilavogui, is being considered, while it's claimed an agreement is close for Ivan Rakitic to leave Sevilla.
Marseille's Mathieu Valbuena and San Lorenzo youngster Angel Correa are also on the agenda, with the former to cost in the region of €8m.

In line with the intentions of an issue celebrating the 50th anniversary of Human Genetics, we focus on a series of frequently cited studies published in this journal during the 1980s and 1990s. These studies have contributed to the rise of molecular cytogenetics. They yielded evidence that chromosomes occupy distinct territories in the mammalian cell nucleus, first obtained with laser-UV-microbeam experiments and thereafter with chromosome painting, and contributed to the development of interphase cytogenetics and comparative genome hybridization. We provide a personal account of experimental concepts, which were developed by us and others, and describe some of the unforeseeable turns and obstacles, which we had to overcome on the way towards an experimental realization. We conclude with a perspective on current developments and goals of molecular cytogenetics.

Our guests today are PHOX in the SXSW portion of our Sense of Place visit to Austin. The band members have done an amazing job of describing themselves on Facebook: "PHOX is a bunch of friends from the Midwestern circus hamlet Baraboo, Wisc., a place where kids often drink poisoned groundwater and become endowed mutants. They make music that straddles Feist and Monty Python." Their debut is coming on Partisan Records in June.

"A Glimpse Of Beauty" Top 5 Page for this destination Franconia Notch State Park by Mikebb
Franconia Notch State Park Travel Guide: 18 reviews and 34 photos
We were travelling on a tour coach from Boston to Quebec and stopped at Franconia Notch for a morning break, coffee and some fresh air. The trip along the freeway from Boston had been a trifle boring as the pine trees along the side of the freeway restricted our view to "Pine Trees"
It was good to leave the freeway and travel into the national park and enjoy the beautiful trees and the White Mountains.
Our stay was restricted to 30 minutes but the memories will last much longer.

Good that you had a glimpse of the White Mountains. My one visit there was a several-day hiking trip when I was a student in New York.
At least you got to enjoy some sites, although so very limited. Nice page and you captured some very nice places. Thanks!
excellent coach tip!! I sadly ran out of time and didnt get to see New Hampshire and its White mountains.
I too have fond memories of this area with my grandfather in early '60s; my first long road trip away from home, up to Quebec and Montreal.
I loved this area of New Hampshire, loads of special memories with my Uncle.
I see that's where you got the idea for the Concord coach!!

My uncle had been married/divorced 3 times, no kids and with his current girlfriend for last 10 years. He was eccentric and secretive. We know he made several wills, but didn't tell his family where they were or who the lawyer was. Relationship with girlfriend is strained. How can we find out if there is a will. He has a substantial estate.
Tax Lawyer
Unfortunately, under Ca law you have to find the will or it is presumed that it was destroyed if it cannot be found. Look through his papers to see if you can find the will, or a bill from an attorney that you can contact to ask if he prepared the will. Look to see if he had a safe deposit box or a safe that it could contain the will. Use as much common sense as you can to think of where he may have kept the will. Check with his accountant, financial adviser, or banker also.

Circular 230 Disclaimer - Advice given in this response cannot be used to eliminate penalties with the IRS or any other governmental agency.
Estate Planning Attorney
If you cannot find a will, you can initiate probate proceedings using the rules of "intestate succession". Under those rules, your uncle's closest living relatives (his sister and the children of any deceased siblings) would be entitled to the entire estate if your uncle was not married and his parents were not alive.

I am deploying a restful web services using Netbeans EE6 and jersey libraries with the tutorial http://netbeans.org/kb/docs/websvc/rest.html.
When I create a restful web services from entities that hold composite primary keys in the database, the project gives me an error when I try to test the web services:
SEVERE: Missing dependency for method public entities.RMSchedule service.RMScheduleFacadeREST.find(entities.RMSchedulePK) at parameter at index 0 SEVERE: Method, public entities.RMSchedule service.RMScheduleFacadeREST.find(entities.RMSchedulePK), annotated with GET of resource, class service.RMScheduleFacadeREST, is not recognized as valid resource method.
Is the error due to composite primary keys or is there a step that I should include? Many thanks in advance.

- Daniel Killian What are you doing this summer? I am doing an internship this summer at Universal Music Publishing, the largest music publishing company in the world. How did you get involved with this internship? I got involved in this internship because it is required for me to graduate. And for me the choice was simple, I went to Nashville on career day with the rest of the music industry majors from Bethel. We were exposed to many different areas of the business and I chose to intern at a publishing company. I applied at several, and was surprised to secure an internship at the biggest music publishing company in the world, Universal Music Publishing What is your major? I am a music business major. What are your duties in this internship? So far, I have helped update the catalog. I've met many famous songwriters, and even talked to a few well-known superstars of country music such as Keith Urban. What are you planning to do when you graduate? After graduation, I plan on attending law school specializing in entertainment law.
- Kayla Dyer What are you doing this summer? I am doing mission work this summer at a deaf Church in Nashville. It's called Brentwood Baptist Deaf Church. How did you get involved? How I got involved...Well last summer I went on a mission trip to West Virgina with the Weakley County Baptist Association and my friend and the intern for the BCM at UTM and now Bethel went with us. When we got there our camp pastor had a son who has special needs and was starting to learn sign language. We got super close and I would sign with him a little each day. Well that summer I felt lead to do mission work more during college and to make it a life choice for after college. I said that God spoke through a little boy who couldn't speak. Also my major at Bethel is special education and I want to work with deaf children. When we were still in West Virginia the intern (Sam) told me about a mission trip that his friend had gone on to Brentwood Baptist Deaf Church and he thought it would be a great idea for me to apply for a summer internship with them so I prayed about it and applied and one year later here I am at that very church! God is Good! How did you start signing? I got started with signing through my church. We have always had a signing team. We sign to music. I started when I was in 5th grade. I have never had a sign language class before this trip. This is my first time working with this church and with deaf people! What an experience!

I'm in an Infantry unit out of Springfield TN. I got back from Iraq last August. I went to Air Assault School over Christmas break. It was the toughest ten days in the Army; rappelling out of Blackhawk helicopters. I actually had to complete a semester two weeks early to go.
- Leanne Kerner What are you doing this summer? This summer I am working as the children's minister at Margaret Hank Cumberland Presbyterian church in Paducah Ky. My job is to pick out literature and other age appropriate materials for the youth, teach a Sunday school class, do an age appropriate bible study on Wednesday night and even add a few random fun activities like Put-Put, baseball games, Luaus, movie days and my favorite of all plan vacation bible school. Bible school is something that is consuming most of my time at this point but I am so excited to see what God has in store for it! How did you get involved with Margaret Hank C.P.? I have been at Margaret Hank since September but didn't really have that much time to spend with the kids until this summer because I was in school. They are great to work with and each has their own unique personality to share with the world. This is an experience I would not trade for the world. After all I get to do what I love, work with kids and plan fun activities for them. Have you participated in anything else this summer? I have also had a great opportunity to do some community service this summer; the biggest thing was a "stuff the truck" event to benefit those affected by the Alabama tornado. We took donations of clothes, food, toys and totalities in hope to fill a semi to be unloaded at a community center serving food and trying to meet basic needs in the time of disaster.

- Arete What did Arete do this summer? We took a trip to Arizona, May 10-17. What did you do in Arizona? Partnered with the Desert Gardens Cumberland Presbyterian Church...We traveled first to the Navajo Nation's Reservation outside of Flagstaff, Arizona. We worked alongside the ministerial leadership team, which included Pastor Jerry Hagelin, Kelvis Josh - Navajo CEF Team Leader, as well as Jordan and Megan Cody - CEF Leadership Team, to clean (inside and out) the geodesic structure where teen training, summer kids camps and retreats are held for the Navajo Indian Nation. Outside activities included roofing a shed which housed the batteries for their solar energy (which had been destroyed because of the hole in the roof) and ripping up scrub brush and bushes near the building so that the teens and kids would be safer from rattlesnakes which like to hide in them. Broken glass that might hurt kids was cleaned up along with any debris. Inside the structure was prepared for summer use by cleaning the walls, floors, kitchen, bathroom, and living areas. When we finished working, we traveled to a Navajo flea market in Tuba City, where students interacted with Navajo vendors, purchased a few items such as jewelry, and tasted a variety of Navajo foods. Students and faculty tried blue corn mush made with ashes from the Pinion Tree, mutton, Navajo cakes, Navajo burgers, and two students even ate a Navajo delicacy called achii, also known as, deep friend sheep intestines! The Grand Canyon was only an hour away, so we detoured en route back to Desert Gardens CP Church where we were staying to the South Rim of the Grand Canyon. Many had never been to the Canyon, and we all found it to be a wonderful experience. The following day, we assisted the members of the Desert Gardens CP Church back in Tuscon on a roadside cleanup project they are committed to year round . Our group collected over twenty bags of trash in just a few hours … setting a new church record! At Pastor Jerry's invitation, our group gave an "All About Bethel" presentation at the church during the Sunday morning church service. Ms. Freeman and Ms. Corbin spoke to the congregation about the mission of BU and the many ways that Bethel is becoming more service oriented. Ellen Hudson, Chris Williams, Kaneeshia Wade, and Rachel Rosser discussed the many ways that Bethel has afforded them opportunities for emotional, intellectual, physical, and spiritual growth and development. Mary Creasy, Dennis Hughes, Ellen Hudson, Kaneeshia Wade, Christa Tatum, and Rebekah Mahoney performed "How Great is Our God" for the congregation. How was the trip, fun, emotional...hard work? It was fun and educational to learn more about the Navajo and Southwest cultures and to spend time together working toward a common goal. While certainly the work that we engaged in was somewhat physically draining/demanding it was very rewarding to be working with this wonderful group of people on such a worthwhile cause. ARETE MEMBERS - KANEESHIA WADE, ELLEN HUDSON, CHRISTA TATUM, NIC TATUM, BRITTANY PRESSON, CHRIS WILLIAMS, RACHEL ROSSER HUGHES, DENNIS HUGHES, MARY CREASY, REBEKAH MAHONEY TWO ADVISORS: STACIE FREEMAN & KRISTI CORBIN
